Do you have an insatiable thirst for fizz? Let's talk all about soda water + seltzer - with sparkly recipes, quirky ingredient lists and even a nod to some effervescent soda fountain history when narcotic and booze-laced drinks were in their heyday.

In this episode, we promise not to pit Team Perrier against Team La Croix. Instead, let's connect over something bubbly with some brain soothing food-adjacent storytelling to help you chill out while finding your next smash hit soda water party favor.

Should delicious pie be gender-specific? Does the patriarchy thrive beneath layers of berries and lattice crust?  Well, if you're a faux mid-century food influencer named Aunt Jenny, the answer might be a resounding yes. 

In this episode, we're serving up relaxing pie recipe reads with a little side of quirky food history brought to us through a cookbook found in the public domain entitled "12 Pies Husbands Like Best". Let's buck the system and kick back together with some soothing recipe reads from a slice of culinary ephemera and the knowledge that no matter who you are—husband or not—you deserve the biggest piece of pie ever.

This episode has us going in deep on the humble tomato today, devoting some quiet studious moments to botany and business with a nice hot recipe read chaser. To center us in this delicious piece of produce, you'll be listening to selections from a book in the public domain called "The Tomato" by Paul Work. Then we'll pick some tomato juicy recipe ingredient lists to wander through combining two of our favorite things: tomatoes + PIE. Get ready, get hungry. It's Recipe Listen.
