A Guy Walks Into a Bar... and Weeps for Joy
This week I'm SOOOooooOOOo excited about three things that signal the end of the pandemic in NYC: real, actual bars where you can sit, drink, and escape the annoyances of The World (and not have to eat food at a stupid table like an inmate), the return of live comedy, and my halal guy recognized me!
The Ol' Boobs Bait & Switch
This week, Anthony discusses how TV shows use boobs to bait and switch viewers, the idiocy of wanting "authentic" food in a restaurant, and why the phrase "The Art & Science of..." is stupid.

What Do We Really Know? I Don't Know.

Where Does the Lotion Go

I'm All Molehill, No Mountain
This week Anthony discusses whether gyms are dead, his undying love of Australia’s best export, The Outback Steakhouse, his confusion with gender pronouns (he’s thee/thine), and why saying DWYSYWD is the stupidest thing he’s ever heard.
Doing Analogue

Truffle Butter on New Year's Eve
