August 28, 2025 Episode 713: Cool Cookies
We're just just a couple of cool cookies about to have a moment. Today we're hoping for vodka luges but will settle for raw dough as we taste these toothsome and chocolatey feats of food science. We Jingle All the Way to church on another episode powered by sugar and decide Tube, Tub and Lumps will never be topped.

August 21, 2025 Episode 712: Rosemary
Today we're talking about The Herb so don't even try to mention thyme. It's all about the sticky leaves of rosemary as we ask what landscapers do and make out of context Spiderman analogies. Mr Etymology pops by as we encounter trailing tendrils, soup tubes and tigers then Lazy Irene gets chopped and invent the drink of the summer.

August 14, 2025 Episode 711: Candy Ropes
Today we're filled with something, but we'll never tell you what. We tie ourselves up in knots as we debate the difference between a vine, a rope and a twist and become truly unhinged due to sugar intake. This episode contains: excessive mouth noises, friend slapping, falling diplomas and Billy Madison Syndrome and AI says "includes a humorous segment about lighting candy on fire."

August 07, 2025 Episode 710: Hot and Sour Soup
It's always soup season and today we make you sweat before professing our love for cartoon characters and catchy jingles. With cameo appearances by Ms Piggy, Chucky and Spumoni we realize that we're sick of lessons, have no fiery rants at the ready and don't care what the tongue has to tell us before declaring that Matthew has always been a Dad.

July 31, 2025 Episode 709: Karaage
Today we're sure we'll mess things up but are permeating studs and talking frying techniques anyway. After a visit from Mr. Etymology we ask how to dredge, and why there are more elephants in the room before offering our shoulders up to be pulled. Then, we fail a spot inspection and put our stamp of approval on some snootiness.

July 24, 2025 Episode 708: American Cadbury
Warning! This episode contains a plethora of chewing sounds. Don't say we didn't warn you.
We're coming to you today from a bed of rose petals as we taste small swaths of chocolate products and try not to wrong the British spirit. We realize these creme not cream candies are 1000% sugar and are comprised of chunky shapes, juicy squirts and nubbly things then get lyrical once we abandon all hope of a Royal Warrant and discover a surprise sponsor but please know that we are NOT elephants so do not @ us.

July 17, 2025 Episode 707: White Pepper
It's another peppersode! Just call us The Indistinguishable Professors with Limited Virtues as we push through our rotundone sensitivities to taste these high pitched smells. Molly takes a risk, Matthew can't get it together and Mr. Botany crashes the show before we ask the age old question: what is lop?

July 10, 2025 Episode 706: Key Lime Pie
We've always had a 'thing' for KLP so why did it take us 706 episodes to get to it!? Today we're diving through dumpsters full of pulp as we learn about new fangled citrus crossings and discover a love for food festivals. Mr Botany lurks behind the curtain and Jane Ellison meets her match as the sandy crusts of the Florida Keys beckon us. Next corporate retreat!?

July 03, 2025 Episode 705: Coconut Water
Your favorite trendsetters are back, though they are suspicious and confused. M and M's biology degrees are put the test before Mr. Botany takes over to describe these hairy bowling bowls rich in nuclei. Its a Tale of Marketing and Endosperm as we gaze upon the majesty of this somehow slippery and turgid beverage.

June 26, 2025 Episode 704: Peanut Nougat Bars
What is this? Why is this? Listen as we draw the line at peanut butter but only after it attacks Matthew. Through Fat Breaks and Big Kats we discuss Wunderbar and lament Producer Abby's lack of sweet tooth as we ask: What Can We Learn? from these logs of mysterious nougat and planks of milky chocolate.
