Welcome to The Grocery Stick Podcast with Jessica and Francis!  We are two NYC based parents who chat weekly about our experiences in travel sports, parenting, schooling and simply the human experience. We have a random, no holds barred approach to our friendship and no matter what the subject of the week is discussed, we always learn something new.  But let's be honest, there's no better sport on this planet than hockey! Thanks for popping in - email us with questions and we'll answer them in an upcoming episode.  Instagram @TGSPod hello@thegrocerystick.com

    #52: Mind the Gap!

    #52 Mind the Gap! The Fresh Prince doesn’t want to share Jessica with the rest of the family. Friendship is a two way street people, so check-in on a friend today. At our age, we need hobbies, so Jessica has taken up some serious sewing as she gets ready for a future at The Villages in Flo-Ridaaaaa. Francis is still in disbelief at the woman who parked her car on Fifth Avenue and fell down a manhole right in front of Cartier. Sadly, the Maine Nordiques junior team has been mismanaged into bankruptcy - wah wah wah.

    #51: Mini Tiger Prawn

    #51: Mini Tiger Prawn Francis is angry at the weeding he doesn’t want to do and the pigeons he has to chase away each day before they build a nest. At the same time, he can’t figure out how construction workers know what to do each day while building a high rise. Meanwhile, Jessica is absolutely amazed by the peculiar story of future NHL draft pick, Jaxon Cover. Reluctantly, Francis recounts his disastrous dining experience at Gordon Ramsay’s latest venture at Bishopsgate.

    #50: No Tailgating

    #50: No Tailgating Francis and Jessica marvel at their 50th episode! Do first world dogs really mellow out on Prozac and other modern medication? And what actually happens to a Make a Wish kid who fully recovers? There’s a quick Kalshi update as we warn listeners against tailgating through the new subway turnstiles. PSA of the day: wear your full visors and mouth guards while on the ice! Finally, the episode ends on the idiocy of home sleep test kits.

  4. #49: The Even MORE Angry Episode

    May 12

    #49: The Even MORE Angry Episode

    #49: The Even MORE Angry Episode Francis and Jessica are even more agitated than normal this week as the NCAA continues to make rule changes that penalize college hockey players. But first there’s plenty of talk about Italian bakeries, hash brown waffles and the incredible, talented entertainment found on @bkcoffeeshop. Here come the lawsuits as JetBlue gets busted for price surveillance and the Canadian half of our podcast apologizes profusely for spending 30 minutes dissecting the new 5-in-5 rule.

    May 5

    #48: It's Not Fair!

    #48: It’s Not Fair! Francis started his day with a bike ride but then it completely upset his morning coffee ritual. Meanwhile, Jessica automates her cup of morning joe. They meander through volleyball, the disappearance of Greek life on campus, sun tan oil, and eventually land on “fairness”.

  6. #47: Let's Do Lunch

    Apr 28

    #47: Let's Do Lunch

    #47: Let's Do Lunch The FPOBA is super chill as Jessica is now hiding Prozac in his cream cheese. Why can’t Americans say what they mean and mean what they say? Francis is still searching for the meaning of his odd teeth brushing dream. The duo chat about Trader Joe’s tote bags, Erewhon smoothies and Love on the Spectrum. SPOILER ALERT for Sinners and Outcome - fast forward so we don’t ruin the movies for you. Can you believe Duke University earns and spends all $180m of their athletic revenues?

  7. #46: Jail Time

    Apr 21

    #46: Jail Time

    #46: Jail Time Happy birthday wishes to Jessica!!! She spent the morning returning a mansion purchased for the FPOBA. Boy do we miss hearing about her fights with strangers on Threads. Watch HBO Max if you are in need of gratuitous sex and violence. Francis outlines the latest Apple Pay credit card scam and we want your vote on whether you see pre-fab jail cells in the picture above.

  8. #45: Poulet Frites

    Apr 14

    #45: Poulet Frites

    #45: Poulet Frites The Fresh Prince of Bel Air (Cesar the rescue) is still going strong in the Jessica household. Francis is still tempted but cannot bring himself to tip the coffee joint using the previous customer’s payment screen. Montreal was a successful 48 hour poulet frites fest! Meanwhile, the Brooklyn crew cannot agree on decision optimization tactics in everyday life.
