According to Saveur magazine, Border Food is defined as Mexican food with a distinct identity —influenced by the cooking of Chihuahua and Texas, but with a number of little twists. Because Texas is so large and diverse, it's a more nuanced label than the overarching Tex-Mex, and one surprising spot that it is celebrating with abandon is in Greenville, SC. Dayna Lee is the chef and operator of Comal 864, a petite spot with a big heart and a smoking hot flattop. With her clear vision of the food of her childhood and a combination of grit and introspection on her own life path, she's gained some well-deserved attention, from being named of Eater's "18 Essential Greenville Restaurants" to a nomination as a 2023 James Beard semifinalist. Originally from South Texas and specializing in Mexican American cuisine, she began her work in a series of brewery pop-ups, teaching herself to channel homesickness into cooking and making more room for others at the table along the way. Last summer, I had the chance to eat my fill of tacos at Comal on a hot June night, and I've been wanting to sit down with her ever since, so we finally got the chance to record at this year's Charleston Wine + Food Festival. The only thing missing? More tacos.

Oi Spillers!! Visto que a serie portuguesa "Rabo de Peixe" está a fazer história, aqui vai a verdadeira história. Sim gente, a série pouco ou nada tem a haver com a história verdadeira. Hoje trazemos um podcast de True Crime do outro lado do oceano, é verdade, diretamente do Brasil, a Daiane discute casos de True Crime de todo o mundo. Composição de um Crime Têm à vossa disposição episódios quinzenais. É sem dúvida uma recomendação Spilling the Crime. Em 2001, o naufrágio de um iate ao largo de Rabo de Peixe mudou a pequena vila piscatória localizada a norte da ilha de São Miguel, nos Açores. Nas margens do Atlântico, os jovens pescadores encontraram meia tonelada de cocaína com um grau de pureza de 80%. As autoridades só conseguiram recuperar 400 quilos e até hoje desconhece-se o que terá acontecido ao resto da droga. Esta história foi tema de muitos artigos de jornal, peças de televisão e documentários não só em Portugal e em todo o mundo. Agora, inspira a segunda série portuguesa na Netflix.

Oi Spillers!! Em contraste da semana passada, este caso é super light e possivelmente dos piores eps que já gravámos xD Isto foi gravado a algum tempo e depois de alguns de vocês terem pedido para o ep sair, aqui está! Pá semana será melhor, aqui vai um episódio light para limpar o paladar de tanto crime horrivel. A atriz estava sozinha na mansão quando um homem, posteriormente identificado como Joshua James Corbett, entrou na casa. Sem o filho no local, a artista correu para se trancar em um armário assim que percebeu a invasão e logo ligou para a polícia.

Oi Spillers!! Este episódio é enorme nós sabemos, mas tem tanta informação e juice que valeu todo o tempo que demorámos a gravar. A sério é dos nossos melhores episódios! Candy Montgomery ficou conhecida após ser acusada de matar com um machado a esposa do homem com quem estava tendo um caso. O crime é especialmente chocante por Candy ter o perfil calmo, dona de casa e religioso. As confissões e declarações do caso só deixam tudo ainda mais estranho, com uma alegação de Candy a sua amiga Sherry Cleckle que “queria fogos de artíficio”, quando comentou sobre o assassinato. Além da evidente estranhesa de ter sido absorvida por aceitarem sua alegação de autodefesa.
