Our fearless duo are back and not a moment too soon. Enjoy an acoustic snippet from the song “Did you know that there’s boiled peanuts at the gas stations in the South under Diet Mountain Dew Boulevard”. This song is famously featured on Lana Del Rey’s unreleased album titled “Grenadine Daydream” (or at least that’s what Melissa says). The crew STILL keeps talking about Chicago. In the episode we also get the Mafia suit shop story, Cyber-babies, amish cabinets,  Rapture Day warnings, and so much more! We even are treated to a couple actual restaurant related server insights on mobile payment systems. Melissa still doesn’t like the taste of sour cream even after recovering from covid and she’s FIGHTIN MAD. Ian is desperately trying to get Amber off the shelf Melissa keeps putting her on (because she’s a little gorgeous porcelain doll). Enjoy your ‘Last Supper’ before the Rapture, because we’re Serving!
This week on Serving! our dearly beloved break down the 2025 VMAs the only way two gay bozos can (in the most hectic, ADHD brain way). What did you think about Megan Stalter's lampshadeeeee? What do you think about her in general? Name a WOMAN??? Tom Ford smells SOUR???? Should the VMAs just turn into the TikTok Drag Queen Brunch show? Maybe that would be a good idea. Melissa is doing her best impression of singing in cursive and HATING every second of it. lan is busy trying to explain that one drag queen cosplaying as the Nicole Kidman AMC commercial. Grab your popcorn/moon man/mobile app award statue and find your seat QUICKLY because we're Serving!
Our Dynamic Duo are back and things are getting juicy (from a black Yumi watermelon that is ;D ). From magical camping trips to $100 Erewhon sushi, the mid-shift crew is breaking down all the tea. Ian weighs in on fake celebrity death rumors and how they’re soooo 2007. Melissa records the entire podcast on one of those long skinny Bob Barker microphones. Scooter Braun, culottes, and AI dog videos are just some of the topics on this episode. We’ve got A LOT to cover today, so loosen your belts and unbutton your Sydney Sweeney jeans, because we’re Serving!
This week Serving! gets a glow up! We're LIVE straight from the nail chair where Julia Stiles is working her manicure magic on Ian's digits. Melissa does her best to keep the conversation from smudging onto the cuticles. Between color choices and nail bed care, the crew dives into fast food chaos, mall nostalgia, and the eternal question: who actually eats at Arby's? With stories of coupon scams, milkshake betrayals, and Cheesecake Factory menu rants, this episode is equal parts self care and unhinged chaos. Nails painted, fries salted, let’s get to Serving!
The Serving! crew is back with a cozy (but still unhinged) episode full of Renaissance Fair tales, sexy Shrek discourse, childhood movie crushes, and the mystery of the neighbor who does laundry for 12 hours straight. Ian shares his survival tips for restaurant life, Melissa questions the logistics of the “gay agenda,” and together they uncover the horrifying truth about chicken lips. From medieval jousting to extreme couponing to cigarette aunt energy, this one’s got it all. Grab a plate, watch out for the gizzards, and let’s start Serving!
