In this episode of Marriage Bites, Jess and Mike officially kick off “Kids Menu Month” with a creamy, chaotic plunge into Applebee’s Chicken Alfredo. But the pasta isn’t the only thing under review. Mike finally shares what it’s like post-vasectomy (yes, ball talk is back), while Jess explores her complicated relationship with dairy-based sauces. The couple debates the psychology of kids menus, dissects mozzarella stick texture with alarming precision, and finds emotional release in unexpected YouTube rabbit holes. Also: the jarred vodka sauce revelation that shook their marriage and why some fast food dining rooms feel like vampire lairs.

Happy anniversary to us! In this episode of Marriage Bites, we celebrate 13 years of wedded bliss the only way we know how: with a spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy’s, way too many bathing suits, and one pending vasectomy. Jess and Mike catch up on a summer full of chaos, nostalgia, and carbs—including a surprisingly heartfelt drive-thru encounter, snack obsessions, and the ever-evolving saga of parenting two growing kids. Also: why fast food collabs are designed to go viral (not be good), how Slack became the third wheel in our marriage, and a PSA about Yeti lids.

In this sugar-fueled episode of Marriage Bites, Mike and Jess dive tongue-first into Burger King’s Nerds Slushie—an effervescent sugar bomb that sparks a nostalgic (and borderline erotic) candy confessional. From awkward childhood slushy memories to grocery store gummy debates, the couple compares sweets like they’re judging Olympic gymnastics. There’s also a deep dive into nerd consumption techniques (tongue-in-the-box or hand-pour?), questionable video store backrooms, and the mystery of packing pork chops for lunch. Oh, and if you’ve ever wondered how candy can lead to conversations about semen, gummy lust, and junior mints, this one’s for you. Embrace the chaos.

In this episode of Marriage Bites, Mike and Jess attempt to review McDonald’s new McCrispy Chicken Strips—but get wildly sidetracked thanks to their kids' unfiltered curiosity. From anatomy questions to late-night bacon cravings, nothing is off-limits in this chaotic, hilarious recap of birthday weekends, Mother’s Day, and parenting in the age of cake pops. They also break down why McDonald’s is banking on tenders to turn around a rough financial quarter—and whether the creamy chili sauce is enough to save the day. Plus, a nostalgic look back at episode 75... which neither of them remembers at all.

On this episode of Marriage Bites with Mike and Jess, the couple hits the Panera Bread drive-thru to taste test the Croque Monsieur sandwich featuring Black Forest ham, melty provolone, and a rich caramelized onion spread on croissant toast. Hilarity ensues as Jess gets the giggles during the order, and the duo reflects on their long history with chain restaurant fare, including a nostalgic blast from the past: Subway’s Spicy Italian. Beyond food, Mike and Jess chat about parenting, managing macros, old college memories, and why Panera might be the unofficial headquarters for breakups and under-eye patch therapy.

This is one of those episodes! Jess may have found her worst meal on the podcast and Mike is ready for more! Plus, they take a trip down memory lane looking back at some of the great foods they have tried over the years
