Just when you thought it was safe to put on mascara, we take a journey to Mount Fire armed with half a potato, perfectly legible labels and some trail mix. Things veer off course almost immediately as we encounter 2pm situations, eleventh hours and too many bears while hoping to be more than the sum of our parts.

Listeners, we're ready to confess. We just ate our very first Big Macs and are prepared to make a statement. Many statements. An episode full of statements. Along the way we start our new law firm, put on a musical and make dangerous plans before encountering burrito fountains and slippy sauce guns. Finally, we "showcase our engaging and thought-provoking dialogue" by sharing actual practical advice for recipe binder organization and getting picky partners to participate. The Filipino Instant Pot CookbookMatthew's Now but Wow! - A Sign of Affection Support Spilled Milk Podcast!Molly's SubstackMatthew's Bands: Early to the Airport and Twilight DinersProducer Abby's WebsiteListen to our spinoff show Dire DesiresJoin our reddit

WTF is happening here? you may be thinking. We would also like to know. We're drooling and dry swallowing over the taste of sleep-away camp as we devour all the varieties of anthropomorphic pebbles we could find all while discussing Meryl Streep's filmography. We eat these bump balls with abandon and gusto which is probably why the AI transcript generator declared "Their enthusiasm for the candy was evident throughout the conversation." Nerds Candy: All About an American Favorite Support Spilled Milk Podcast!Molly's SubstackMatthew's Bands: Early to the Airport and Twilight DinersProducer Abby's WebsiteListen to our spinoff show Dire DesiresJoin our reddit

just deleted this subscription...turned political. these people are extreme and they dont even know it. Last straw was apologizing for mentioning Little House on prairie, but then talking about song with suggestive title. stick to food and maybe people would stay

I keep asking myself why I listen to this podcast cuz... whoa. this episode is mislabeled. icebox cake, while mentioned, was discussed less than cannibalism. no, the attempted humor didn't work.

Molly is so rude. I gotta say, I think I'm done with this show. It's gotten really boring and I really can't stand Molly anymore. She is just insufferable.
