Gag Reflects Naama and Jessi

Just our little contribution to the war effort: it's not a pandemic if you can't drink shitty wine and listener, we have the crossover episode to help heal your isolated soul.  Forget about the world falling apart for a little bit and learn about the crazy history of Manischewitz, the little matzoh company that became a household name and synonymous with horrifying wine.  Let us take you away from the horrors of COVID and envelope you in a gefilte fish blanket of joy.  Not all heroes wear capes.  

It's time to gather your jade eggs, kale shakes and moon lotion as your aunties Naama and Jessi tell you the story of a time long before Gwyneth Paltrow was telling us to pay into her wellness industrial complex.  This is a tale as old as ancient grains...this is the story of John Harvey Kellogg and his militant veganism and search for a nutriment-filled and racially cleansed new world.  Join us as we discuss The Hygenic Cookbook and learn about enemas, soy milk, and the American Antiquarian Society.  

It's the Cookbook that started it all for us: The 1987 Jill St. John Cookbook.  The first American to play a Bond girl, the first celebrity to publish a "lifestyle" cookbook and the first wife of Robert Wagner to escape a watery grave, Jill St John is an American pioneer.  Come join us as we talk 80s fashion, murder theories, and Jill's internalized anti-semitism.

Like the microwave itself, this episode is quick and dirty.  There's also some sort of echo happening but just pretend you're listening to it inside a microwave and make it an immersive experience!

Listener, you really haven't lived until you've had an old white man tell you how to cook escargot in the microwave.  And let the congregation say, AMEN.

Listener, welcome to the bullion cube thunderdome!  Jessi and Naama create some truly beige-tasting dishes like evanessence of lettuce and piano wire rosettes.  Plus, we celebrate our Jill St. Johneversary!
