List of Potato Museums

Hello babies! On today's very special episode, Emily and Lisa have some important news to share about the fate of Baby Geniuses and share some special memories. On Chunch Chat, the origin of the name "Timothy" is discussed. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "List of potato museums," a list of potato museums around the world.

Edward Dando

Hello babies! Do you have Wonka Fever? We no longer do! He's simply not mean enough to children anymore. On Chunch Chat, we come to the conclusion that Martha absolutely manages her own social media accounts. Also, The Rock hasn't been completely honest with us. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Edward Dando," a thief who came to public notice in Britain because of his unusual habit of overeating at food stalls and inns, and then revealing that he had no money to pay. Although the fare he consumed was varied, he was particularly fond of oysters, having once eaten 25 dozen of them with a loaf and a half of bread with butter.

Humbug

Hello babies! A very Merry Christmas to all the Bougie Grinch Girls out there! A not so Merry Christmas to the worms that are trying to enter Emily's house. Related: we dig up dirt on certain Selling Sunset stars. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Humbug," a person or object that behaves in a deceptive or dishonest way, often as a hoax or in jest.

Costco Hot Dog

Hello babies! The holiday season is here, and the Baby Geniuses Podcast is your one stop shop for great gift ideas! Is there someone in your life who likes the finer things and whose body is 100% covered in thick green fur? We have the PERFECT PNG for you. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Costco Hot Dog," a 1/4lb hot dog sold at the international warehouse club Costco's food courts. At $1.50, it is the Costco food court's second best deal (onions are free).

And by that I mean Emily shares how to avoid being phished. She learned the hard way! On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Spitting," the act of forcibly ejecting saliva or other substances from the mouth.

Bark Mitzvah

Hello babies! Lisa is back from New York with a new obsession and Emily blows off a little steam about a less than sexy period drama. On Chunch Chat, Martha struggles with a mistaken identity and falls for an invasive species. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia article for "Bark Mitzvah," which is either a tongue in cheek celebration for beloved pets or a desecration of a cherished Jewish tradition.

Stingy Jack

Hello babies! Boo! Was that spooky enough for ya? If not, Emily and Lisa are sharing some stories that just might chill you down to your core.. That is, if your SKELETON HASN'T ALREADY JUMPED OUT OF YOUR SKIN! I shudder to imagine such a thing. Lisa shares an interaction that she had with possibly an actual GHOUL and Emily serves up a literal jump scare mid segment. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Stingy Jack," a mythical character sometimes associated with All Hallows Eve.

Gustave (crocodile)

Hello babies! We would love for you to join us and turn your brain fully off for the next hour. The world will still be crappy when you get back, but at least you'll have soothed yourself with the therapeutic voices of two dum dums. We spend a great chunk of this episode unpacking the implications of a home decorated for Halloween. On Chunch Chat, we investigate whether or not Martha Stewart's Fell Pony Banchunch is a DUD. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Gustave (crocodile)," a croc that eats ass. (Sorry, I have been notified that he eats the rest of the body too.)

Even though there are no new episodes, this is still one of my favorite podcasts! I re-listen to old episodes when I need the comfort of two horny, funny, smart, feminist friends in my ears, but my friends aren’t available. I’m thankful for the many expert guest that provided hilarity. I’m grateful for the many silly Wikipedia pages you found so I didn’t have to. But I have the most gratitude for Emily and Lisa’s exemplary friendship through difficult personal changes, horrific political times, and monumental successes. They’re the best! 💖 And the butt pics were always a bonus! I hold out hope that the podcast will return. 💖
Miss You, Thank You
