Today, Talko Bell wants to promote Natalie's live show NATE which on August 9th 2019 has a live taping in Los Angeles and the show is presented by Amy Poehler!  Everyone go to www.theblacklistnyc.com/nateshow and see this amazing comedic adventure!  In this episode, which was recorded prior to our main interview, we discuss Coke vs. Pepsi, the fact that Natalie pulled Chad onstage to do improv and ended up whipping him with a bullwhip while he was on all fours, and how a partially scripted/partially improvised show evolves creatively.  It was amazing to hear her open up about the creative process!

Its a spicy, sloppy one today.  Actor, singer, songwriter and spice lover Tara Tisch graced us with her presence to try the brand new Carolina Reaper Ranch Burrito!  We go in depth on the MANY dangers of incorporating food into sexy time and the importance of character actors on the sidelines that hold together all of your favorite movies.  We went full vegetarian today subbing black beans for Taco Bell's 86% meat base and for classic with a twist, we added Pico De Gallo to the classic Tostada.  Follow Tara at tarathetisch on Instagram and listen for her in the Anime series' Emma and Aria!

This week, we deliver you a hot fresh Taco Tuesday treat directly from the Shire!  New Hampshire, that is.  We talk with Krutch himself about fast food life in New England, how Taco Bell > Cooking, and we break down the documentary from the future that is Demolition Man!  The Chipotle Chicken Griller had surprises for all and for classic with a twist, we added some guac to the wonderful Doritos Locos Taco.  And Talko Bell family, help us spread the word, subscribe and leave a review!

Oh boy, another great Taco Tuesday episode for anyone who enjoys trashy nachos!  Heather McKinney from the incomparable podcast Sinisterhood came by to face her greatest fear: The Doritos Locos taco.  She shared many a story including how she came to avoid this delicious taco, childhood Taco Bell memories, 7/11 nacho building etiquette, Dallas comedy scene mishaps, and she reminds us that everyone is just looking for a hard chip with enough cheese to get the job done!  Probably still talking about nachos?

Today, we have one of the greats!  Quite possibly the only guest on our show with a Peabody award, unless someone isn't telling us something.  Bill Oakley, the Gordon Ramsey of fast food came on our show all the way from Oregon to sample the Chicken Power Menu Burrito and for Classic with a twist we replicate the Baja Chalupa from the year 2000.  We discuss conspiracy theories surrounding why chain restaurants don't have super spicy hot sauce and Taco Bell timeliness while eating.  This is seriously an amazing episode!

Wow.  The timeline of Talko Bell will be divided into "pre-Natalie interview" and "post-Natalie interview!"  Not only is she one of the funniest performers working today, she loved talking with us about food!  We discuss everything from friendship to ethnicity and regional food favorites.  One of our funniest episodes to date, but how could it not be?  Natalie is touring with her shows NATE and LAID overseas and in the US and can be heard on about 300,000 animated shows approximately including Bob's Burgers!  Listen to her podcast Hidden Mickeys with Carrie Poppy.  Our music is "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell" by Das Racist.

We have a very special episode full of taste revelations!  On Instagram, he is knows as @tacobellsommelier, and on Talko Bell he is our wine pairing taco guide.  We tried the Rosè paired with the Chicken Chips, and for our end we brought Dos Equis, Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Tacos and fresh lime to the table.  This show is full of hacks for your taco to bring the taste to the next level, and several pitches for ad campaigns, so hire us Taco Bell!  Music is Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell by Das Racist.

What a great Taco Tuesday!  Tim Race, lead singer of the great band Big Bliss, came to our Cantina to try the new Grande Nacho Box with Chicken and his own classic with a twist, the Crunchwrap with a side of nacho cheese, inspired by his personal experience eating Taco Bell on many nationwide tours.  We discuss the brands place in our lives, and get into a heated music conversation (including Joy Division, New Order and Kid Rock?) before diving in to Tim's life as a recording and touring musician.  Truly, one of our beefiest interviews to date!  @talkobellpod on Instagram and @talkobell on Twitter!  Tim is @bigblissband on Instagram!  Our music is "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell" by Das Racist.

Today, Alex and Chad get together at their home away from home, Grotta Local, to discuss podcast updates, why the feed looks different and to hang out and talk about amazing beer.  We got a chance to try the Burly Oak Lost IPA and a special Grisette Beer from our friends at Collective Brewing Project!  We have some amazing guests lined up (even we can't believe it!) coming soon to Taco Tuesdays, so keep living shameless, enjoying delicious food and seeking out great beer!

Happy Taco Tuesday!  Today on Talko Bell, Dave Riddile, slush expert and marketing director at Collective Brewing Project, came on to discuss the Instagram worthy Watermelon Freeze!  We discuss best practices when making a beer slushie and how creating a good sugar base applies to all slush based beverages.  Our classic with a twist was the Cheesy Gordita Crunch sub Doritos taco shell, which led to another hotly debated hot sauce vs. fire sauce confrontation.  Dave exemplifies proper sauce etiquette and breaks down in real time how to taco while you drive.  Dave's brewery can be found @cbpfortworth and dave is on social media @professoroftubes.  Please send us your interesting Taco Bell experiences on Instagram @talkobellpod!
