1 - Griff Jenkins joins the program. Why does Gitmo make sense to use? It is a good way to spend the tax dollars comparatively to what has been going on in the last 4 years. The government can move pretty quickly when it wants to, so we can send our illegal criminals there pretty soon if they decide to. How does Griff feel about this plane accident and what does he think led to the crash? What should we expect next from Tom Homan. 115 - Do we want to go to Gitmo? 120 - Dom got his Tastykake! Your calls. 130 - COO of Steak n Shake Dan Edwards joins us to discuss the fast food franchise's switch back to cooking their food in beef tallow. Why the switch? Was the restaurant ever using beef tallow before? What took so long for beef tallow to re-emerge? Dan is a Philly guy, so why are there no franchises in the area? 140 - Will Dan take up the mantle as the area's Steak n Shake franchisee? 150 - Is Trump causing Americans to be afraid to fly?
12 - After a plane collided with a helicopter, who is to blame? Trump seems to think it's the FAA and their hiring practices. Is that a fair point to make or not? Dom weighs in. 1220 - Harlem Globetrotters player Joey “Hot Rod” De La Rosa joins us today to give us an inside look at what it's like being a Globetrotter. Joey loves the hook shot, and so does Dom! Are the Washington Generals due for a win? Is Dom secretly a Generals fan? Who did Joey learn from and how was he inspired to play ball? Can Dom and Henry spin a ball with some help? How are the Globetrotters helping our local children's hospitals? Where can you watch the Globetrotters? 1230 - Side - Oxymorons 1235 - Returning to Trump's comments on the FAA's DEI hiring practices and whether or not it has to do with this crash. 1250 - Taking your calls on Trump's comments and the side question. 1 - Griff Jenkins joins the program.

What are the priorities of RFK Jr. and what does he want to tackle after he is sworn in. Mary discusses how the agencies that overlook the science on food and pharmaceuticals don't actually do the studies, they just use them, allowing for corruption and falsified findings. We play audio of Rand Paul discussing the COVID vaccine and how he points out that politicians aren't interested in discussing nuance, only mandates. Why is there so much contention on these confirmations, including RFK Jr.? 215 - Dom's Money Melody! 220 - Winner? 225 - Your calls on Trump's comments. 240 - Things are getting testy on Capitol Hill with these confirmation hearings!

What lessons can we extract from the acquisition of Simple Mills and majority sale of Spindrift, valued at nearly $1.5 billion combined? The hosts talk about what these better-for-you brands did right and what made them attractive to strategic companies and investors. We also sit down with Marcin Malyszko and Amit Singh, the co-founders of Mission Cocktails, a purpose-driven brand of premium ready-to-serve bottled cocktails. Show notes: 0:25: Las Diego. Big(ish) Food Was Listening. Neighbor's Big Pay Day. Hopped Up. Imposters, Deer & Bears. – John and Ray are heading west. Are you as well? Let them know. Nearly a year after Ray's rant, Simple Mills got its flowers. So did Spindrift, but we still don't have a vending machine. We're happy that hop-infused water is finally getting its due (at least from the New York Times), but less pleased with an oddly-named brand of non-alcoholic spirits. John highlights an animal-themed water, and Mike does the same, but for a ginger beer, before Jacqui praises purple snacks. 27:27: Interview: Marcin Malyszko & Amit Singh, Co-Founders, Mission Cocktails – A brand of premium ready-to-serve cocktails that donates 5% of gross revenue to local food banks, Mission Cocktails launched in 2023 and markets several products, including a Manhattan, a Margarita and a Mai Tai, all packaged in 375 mL glass bottles. The brand is sold in over 500 retail stores, including Gelson's, BevMo, Pavilions and Whole Foods. Marcin and Amit discuss the origins of Mission Cocktails and how their focus on “liquid to lips” and persistent effort to connect with retail executives has helped the brand make significant strides over the past 12 months.

In this episode of the Brand X Podcast John, Deuce and Joe the celebrate their one year podcast anniversary. Someone had the brilliant idea to break out the Jack Daniel’s to do a celebratory shot. Well, who only does one shot of Jack? Not John. John comes to the realization that he might not be able to defend himself like he did back in the day. There was a loud noise, a 911 call, and finally some shame and embarrassment. But never fear Deuce will hook John up with some home defense items. Tom from the Tom and Steve Podcast got a bug up his ass and insulted David the Producer from the Unwritable rant Podcast and David released the Hounds. Who are the Hounds? John, The Naked Porch Podcast, and Rob and Slim. After a few hours of a shock and awe twitter attack, Tom went from a bug up his ass to a huge penis on his face. Tom knew he met his match and surrendered. Deuce had a ball breaking the story of when Steve the wonder Bread Man cornered the Tastykake peach pie market for spite.

For this episode, we look at three poems by Laura Sobbott Ross. She’s taught English to students from dozens of countries, and has two poetry chapbooks: A Tiny Hunger (YellowJacket Press) and My Mississippi (Anchor & Plume Press.) For this episode, we look at three poems by Laura Sobbott Ross. Laura Sobbott Ross lives in a rural, hilly part of inland Florida where horses and hothouses of orchids abound. She loves to take pictures on long drives through the open land, and to sing to the radio with the windows wide, which conjures threats from her teenagers, but her dogs don’t seem to mind. You will find paint on her clothes at any given time. She’s taught English to students from dozens of countries, and has two poetry chapbooks: A Tiny Hunger (YellowJacket Press) and My Mississippi (Anchor & Plume Press.) First, we’re transported to the sunny beaches of “Bora Bora,” where we find ourselves with some trouble in paradise. We follow that off trying to decipher “The Walrus in the Tea Leaves,” where we’re left with more questions than answers. And finally, we throwback to The Eagles’ “Hotel California” with “Déjà Vu.” Even though we do check in, we’re not so sure if we ever want to leave! Let us know what you think of these poems on Facebook and Twitter with #squeegeeboy! Don’t forget to read on! Present at the Editorial Table: Kathleen Volk Miller Marion Wrenn Tim Fitts Sara Aykit Production Engineer: Joe Zang PBQ Box Score: 3=0 ------------------------- Bora Bora 1996 A shaft of blue splintered into a thousand nuances, shed them into the sea beneath our tiki hut— wedged on stilts into hunger clouds of shimmery fish, oysters lipping black pearls. We married there, on the shore between the neon chakra of sky & water, a handful of drowsy natives shaking New Year’s Eve from the folds of their pareos. Dancing, a tide etched in sand. Later, petal-strung in whites already sighing into sepia, from our balcony we sought those old stars from home. Palm trees swaying festively in dark silhouette across the unadorned horizon of the Pacific. Love, a sugared rim we shared in sips, cowry shells strung and whispering at our throats, every edge garnished in hibiscus, sunburn, pineapple. In the shallows, the moray eel we’d spotted earlier— prehistoric face bobbling from his pulpit of stone. Before the ceremony, we’d tossed in our pockets of foreign coins— wishes aimed at his blind scowl. Later, moonlight uprooted the slippery ribbon of his tail, while the current floated him, floorboard by floorboard, across you & me; a benediction in a sleeve of sea water, the round polyp mouths of the reef opening in the dark like a choir. The Walrus in the Tea Leaves For Doug Darling, it wasn’t the news you’d expected. And when you told me about it, I’d giggled, conjured images of broken symmetries— kaleidoscope and compass, magnetic poles and mirrors gone random. I knew what you were hoping for, how you’d tilted your throat back and swallowed down the void. The psychic parsing through the wrack line for messages left in seaweedy clots of Chamomile or Earl Gray. Speckle and flack— dark nebula splat against a bone-colored sky. You said she’d seemed baffled by the walrus— awkward animal, all teeth and tail. You told me he’d risen twice from the wet ashes that morning, buoyant and robust in his island cup, nosing through the diorama of dregs like a seafloor of mollusk shells pursed shut; his mouth, an insistent imprint on the rim. Déjà Vu —1979 There has to be darkness and a highway. Beyond the shoulders of the road, a topography, splayed and lit in street lamps. You’re seventeen, and Hotel California is playing on the radio. If you look close enough, you can see the silhouette of mountains beyond your own reflection in the car window. To the right, an anchor store in a strip mall. To the left, the gas station where high school boys work— the good looking ones who sweep the silk of their long bangs from their eyes with puppy-soft hands, and ask if you want regular or unleaded. Watching them comb your windshield clean beneath the squeegee’s wide, forgiving blade, you might imagine whispering: Save me, and wonder, does anyone do that anymore?— the windshield washing, you mean, of course, and you know that if you slid your fingers inside the thick baffles of their goose-down vests, down into the warmth beneath their soft-as-ash flannel shirts, your palms would smell like gasoline and their father’s Old Spice, and that in the star bristled night, every imagined kiss was a curfew, exquisitely unfair, and a promise you had made in a fever to return home what you’d borrowed just the way you found it.

Scranton bluegrass band Coal Town Rounders sit down with us in Episode 27 to talk about how they discovered this music, learned new instruments, and formed the group; booking and playing various festivals, including the weird ones with drugs and laser beams; the universal appeal of bluegrass and introducing it to new audiences; the transition from playing traditional songs to writing original tracks; recording their new album, “How It Used to Be,” live at home in two days over the Christmas holiday; printing and folding every CD cover by hand at Revival Letterpress; the differences among bluegrass, country, and folk music; meeting celebrities; hoping for a Tastykake endorsement; and the story of how collecting “bad” art from yard sales and flea markets led to owning a $21 five-foot-long cat painting that hangs above one band member’s bed. In The Last Word segment, we discuss how to offer constructive criticism - and take it - without hurting anyone’s feelings or burning bridges and a concert cancellation in Wilkes-Barre that sparked a heated debate about the local music scene.

Have you ever wondered how chicken nuggets are made? Or what propylene glycol monostearate, monocalcium phosphate, or other listed ingredients are doing in your favorite packaged snacks? Distillations hosts Michal Meyer and Robert Kenworthy certainly did, and they went to the corner deli to inspect some processed food themselves. They also spoke with experts Bryant Simon, a historian, and David Schleifer, a sociologist, about how trans fats and chicken nuggets arrived on the food scene as the healthier options, but have since turned into villains. Both Simon and Schleifer suggest that when it comes to deciding what we eat, we might have less choice than we think. Class, geography, and convenience (for both food makers and food eaters) all play a role.

You can blame Chris’s tomfoolery for how crappy he sounds, because his computer pooped all over himself and he had to call in on his iPhone. Nevertheless, we were able to discuss in detail the smuggling of mass-produced pastries of the Twinkie and Tastykake varieties. We also get framework security in the context of recent Rails vulnerabilities, and how PHP developers seem to have a heightened awareness of potential vulnerabilities. Ed’s details his experiences starting a local user group, and then discusses his efforts to speak at developer/tech conferences about his struggles with mental illness.
