Petty Theft and Kindness

Enjoy our worst-quality audio yet! Coming to you directly from the world's most echo-y kitchen and from atop the world's creakiest Ikea kitchen chairs in their new Chicago apartment, Finn and Theo are back at it again with the strong coffee and stronger opinions. Talking points: fruit syrups (again), a woman unwittingly punishing her children with 3 lukewarm milks, a funeral for the Very Berry Hibiscus refresher, crossing mountains for coffee, several guest opinions by Feta. 

We recorded this episode in May but we had to wait until December to release it so that none of you were tempted to order this disappointing frozen sludge. Enjoy 27+ minutes of Finn and Theo absolutely disparaging the new Starbucks strawberry funnel cake Frappuccino. Other talking points: missing the s'mores Frappuccino, cakepops are a young man's game, and wondering what kind of drink requires you to hide your face from God? 

The frequently-alluded-to-but-previously-unheard episode 4 has finally been excavated and processed for human consumption. A blast from the recent past, Finn and Theo of July 2020 discuss new covid measures at the farmers market and taste-test Chicago's infamously nasty liquor of choice.

It's some good old fashioned coffee talk with your favorite queer (ex) baristas! We talk the  2021 pistachio line, reminisce on the 2020 butterscotch latte, and discuss other seasonal items from that flighty temptress, the Starbucks siren. Other talking points: Theo attempts to describe how a tuberculosis test works with half the facts and none of the terminology, "I went to school for eight years to be a zoologist and all I do is blow polar bears and all I got was this stupid t-shirt," and world's saddest six-word Vaseline stories. 

For this, our inaugural episode, Theo flies solo and tackles tiny pumpkin controversy, Thanksgiving traditions, the flavors of Autumn, and niche gifts to get the folks who have everything in the upcoming holiday season.
