From Michelin dinners and travel eats to pop culture, restaurant stories, and wildly strong food opinions, nothing is off the menu. Join besties Priscilla Schwab and Madison Mazzeo in recurring segments like Feed the Group Chat, Whine & Dine, Spill the Matcha, and other games where we debate, rank, and spiral about the food and pop culture world and beyond. Consider this your invitation to sit at the table with us and have fun while we’re yapping with our mouths full of caviar; because when the conversation gets juicy, we’re all thinking the same thing... I’ll have what she’s spilling. Produced by: Joseph Santucci

    Fruit is (redacted) Expensive

    This week, the girls are back in the studio with Producer Joe and somehow the conversation detours through COVID weddings, cigarette nostalgia, and why adulthood keeps assigning us chores nobody asked for. Then, Feed the Group Chat is all about Arizona Restaurant Week and local spots worth adding to your list. We’re talking The Hermosa Inn, Cowboy, The Parlor, patio weather, and expensive food that may or may not be worth the vibes. In Whine & Dine, Priscilla has officially had enough of Q4, holiday parties, galas, gift buying, work goals, and the general financial violence of the end of the year, while Maddy discovers that buying an expensive espresso machine apparently means committing to a lifetime subscription of equally expensive filters, tablets, and descaling solution. Then Spill the Matcha gets into Will Porter’s very delayed apology, the new Dancing with the Stars cast, Earl Meets World and its extremely messy stepmommy drama, Ashley St. Clair reportedly turning down Elon Musk’s NDA money, Phaedra and CT hard launching, and Bethenny Frankel’s Burning Man memes. Finally, we play Send It Back or Lick the Plate, where the girls weigh in on sharing locations, Costco first dates, 5:30 dinner reservations, sleeping in socks, spoilers, airport arrival times, rainy-day cancellations, and several other deeply important lifestyle decisions.  It’s another chaotic catch-up filled with restaurant opinions, pop culture, Q4 dread, reality TV predictions, and absolutely no agreement on what should be sent back.

    I Don’t Wanna Trauma Dump at the Drive-Thru

    This week your favorite ADHD duo unpack rejection sensitivity, overstimulation, interrupting each other, and having absolutely no sense of direction. Plus,Producer Joe is once again on the shit list.  They of course dig in to how Arizona somehow received exactly zero Michelin stars, sharing thoughts about the restaurants that were overlooked, the absolute disrespect toward Tucson, and why Michelin might need a rebrand. In feed the group chat, they cover Umi’s new all-you-can-eat buffet, Maddy’s infamous rage-mukbang story, Across the Pond’s uni magic carpets, the surprisingly great $10 steak Caesar at Angie’s, and Fish Pop’s viral fish and chips. In Whine & Dine, Priscilla is officially exhausted by food recalls and wondering whether anything in the grocery store is safe anymore, while Maddy establishes some very specific etiquette around introducing a new significant other to your friends. Is a long-awaited dinner between established friends really the place to soft, medium or hard launch your new boyfriend?  Then Spill the Matcha gets into Olivia Rodrigo putting her money where her mouth is, Kelly Clarkson saying goodbye to daytime TV, and a full postmortem of the Love Island reunion. The girls discuss who changed their minds, who came out looking worse, and why being a girls’ girl requires being nice to women outside your immediate friend group. Finally, the Palate Cleanser puts Maddy and Priscilla’s friendship to the test with their own version of the Newlywed Game. From coffee orders and favorite nigiri to comfort foods and the tiny details you only know after spending entirely too much time together, we find out just how well these two actually know each other.

    Costco Knows Who She Is

    This week, the girls are back in the studio Maddy has accidentally enrolled at Hogwarts at 31 and is officially being welcomed by Priscilla into Granny Girl Summer with their newfound mahjong obsession, and they recap the very unexpected internet outrage over… men’s underwear. Then, Feed the Group Chat is all about showing some love to local spots. We’re talking al dente pasta, perfectly made at Tratto, mochi donuts and ube coffee, a brown butter chocolate chip cookie worthy of Maddy’s ongoing search for the best in America, catering spots that deserve your rep lunch orders, and the Greek rice Priscilla simply cannot stop thinking about. In Whine & Dine, Priscilla discovers the true cost of “enjoying your mortgage” with a toddler, while Maddy’s financial audit turns into a full investigation of subscriptions that are suspiciously easy to start and nearly impossible to cancel. Because apparently Paramount Plus needs closure before you’re allowed to leave. Then Spill the Matcha gets into brand PR disasters, Post Malone’s surprise engagement, the rumored Dancing with the Stars cast, and Meghan and Harry potentially entering their hybrid-royal era. Finally, we debut the palate cleanser Cancel, Endorse or Rebrand, where absolutely nothing is safe. It’s another chaotic catch-up filled with local eats, niche hobbies, internet rage bait, corporate cancellations, strong food opinions, and several rebrands nobody hired us to do.

    Too Much Therapy, Not Enough Coolant

    This week the girls are back in studio and cover some casual local food spots. Plus, Priscilla’s car chooses violence, a five-star spa experience comes with a surprise $1,000 charge and some questionable massage techniques, why Arizona windshields are apparently disposable, and if boneless wings are really just wet chicken nuggies, and we debate the very specific etiquette of thong bikinis, nipple pasties, and family vacations. Then, Whine & Dine takes on AI-generated everything and the lifelong struggle of keeping your toothpaste tube clean, while Spill the Matcha gets into Alex Cooper’s latest PR move, Hollywood conspiracy theories, celebrity wedding fashion, and the important question of what exactly Timothée Chalamet is bringing to the table. And somehow, we end up discussing Producer Joe’s underwear. Naturally. It’s another chaotic, food-filled catch-up with expensive problems, strong opinions, questionable hygiene, and several debates nobody asked us to settle...come hungry, leave fed, taste buddies!

    This is a Spring Roll Podcast

    We’re tackling the issues that matter: why QR code menus still exist, whether it’s a spring roll or a summer roll, and exactly how many martinis constitute “a little hungover.” Plus, Priscilla survives 21 flights of stairs, Maddy enters her collage era, we recap some truly divine New York City eats, and Spill the Matcha takes us straight back into Love Island discourse and Rat Boy Summer. It’s another chaotic, food-filled catch-up with strong opinions, questionable infrastructure, and several extremely important debates...come hungry, leave fed, taste buddies!

    Frozen Burgers Aren’t Supposed to be Raw-Dogged

    Madison is back from Hawaii, Priscilla checks in from New York's North Fork, and the girls have a lot to unpack. They swap travel stories (including questionable airplane etiquette), compare vacation food, gush over East Coast peaches, pies, oysters, and farm stands, and debate whether a $1,080 motel could ever be worth it. They also discover they're both "planned surprise" people, rant about restaurants asking burger temperatures for frozen patties, recap House of Stassi, and revisit Harry Potter and Twilight.. . It's another chaotic, food-filled catch-up with plenty of laughs and a few very strong opinions...come hungry, leave fed taste buddies!

    Caviar Doesn't Belong On Everything

    This week Maddy checks in from Hawaii, where she's somehow balancing work, Pilates, snorkeling, surfing, and approximately a pound of cherries a day and Pri shares her self-care weekend and heartbreaking news about her uncle's restaurant (GoFundMe below). The accidentally coordinating duo catches up on incredible meals at Indibar, Pa'la, and Drink Me Tea Room in Feed the Group Chat. Despite certified caviar heads with the tagline "yapping with our mouths full of caviar" ... in Whine and Dine they ask the question...is it becoming a scammy, overused GARNISH? Things take a turn as Maddy tells the story of her near death plane experience (that might be a little dramatic, you decide). In Spill the Matcha they chat about recent celeb weddings, Justin Baldoni's latest legal update, and somehow end up talking hot dog towers, Harry Potter, Love Island breakups, and as always reality TV drama. They finish with a new palate cleanser where Maddy somewhat misunderstands the assignment. Tune in for food, friendship, travel updates, and way too many opinions about airplane etiquette.

    Producer Joe’s Midlife Crisis in a Toyota Camry

    This week on The Aftertaste, we diagnose Producer Joe with a midlife crisis... only for him to realize literally everyone else already knew. One lunch turns into an intervention featuring 4 a.m. nights, WinCo obsession, go-kart victories, and a spontaneous solo trip to China for someone who didn't know what a visa was. Naturally, Maddy volunteers to become his unpaid travel agent. Then we're feeding the group chat with a trip to Indibar, an unforgettable chutney showdown, and whining and dining about bakery line-cutters, airport walking laps, and the controversial existence of chocolate-scented contour. Finally, we break down the Love Island finale (Brinity forever), debate the most deserving winners, rank the finale dresses, unpack the Zach discourse, celebrate some wholesome pop culture wins, and ask the question everyone is secretly thinking: Should Joe be allowed through customs unsupervised?
