Podcast Episode 14: Celebrating One Year in the Stu-Stu-Studio

Looks like we made it! The feed me kc crew has been unreliably churning out podcasts for an entire year, and they haven’t kicked us off the Internet yet.

Super Jambalaya Andouille Dog, No Bowl Required

With Super Bowl week upon us it’s time to start thinking about how to make people full on Super Bowl Sunday. While I have little stake in the winner of the actual game, I do plan on devoting my day to the patriotic act of eating and drinking myself into a coma. I believe I [...]
