Ranch Dressing

Baby Geniuses

09/18/23 • 61 min

Hello babies! On today's unintentionally culinarily oriented episode, we're discussing all the things that make food great. Does maple syrup count as a "sauce?" Does a clean refrigerator improve your quality of life? Do cast iron pans increase your iron levels? On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia article for "Ranch Dressing," a savory, creamy American salad dressing usually made from buttermilk, salt, garlic, onion, mustard, herbs (commonly chives, parsley and dill), and spices (commonly pepper, paprika and ground mustard seed) mixed into a sauce based on mayonnaise or another oil emulsion.

Hello :cough: babies! The strike is over, but we're not celebrating yet - Lisa finally got Covid and feels pretty crappy. Emily still hasn't been infected however! That means Emily and Rob are in the running for the last people on earth who still haven't gotten it. Emily helps Lisa recuperate by suggesting YouTube game show compilations. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Daughter from California syndrome," Something Emily and Lisa definitely both contracted from birth.

Hello babies! As if we needed more reason to not leave our homes, our portion of the continent is on fire! Anyways, listen to this podcast and just breathe less often. On today's episode, we decompress a bit and talk about horse riding technique. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for Egg War. As bad as things are now, I wouldn't trade my life for that of a 19th century egger. Stay tuned for the Shyamalanian twist ending to our podcast.
