In this episode of Check Please! Josh and I are running our mouths about all the latest culinary trends and debuting a segment called Hot & Ready in which we rattle off a few of our hottest food takes. If you’ve been hoping and praying to hear my controversial thoughts on tiramisù, the light of god has shined upon you today. We also did a little Q&A to really shed some light on the inner workings of our gorgeous, twisted brains, though the questions may have been more telling than the answers. There’s even a bonus unboxing and fragrance review. Truly, we can do it all. In even more exciting news, we’re debuting a special segment next week. Introducing the Check Please! hotline! We’ll be taking questions and offering advice on two of life’s greatest gifts: food & love. How it works: * Call this number and leave us a message with your culinary curiosities and/or relationship woes: ‪(512) 666-8927‬. This is as anonymous as you want it to be, no need to worry. * Selected messages will be played in next week’s episode and responded to live on air. Why you should call: * Our credentials: Josh is a professionally trained cook. I am not, however, if you’re here with me, I will assume we’ve built up some trust in each other. We’re also both fairly well-adjusted, level-headed adults in healthy longterm relationships (married & engaged, even), ready and willing to (thoughtfully) meddle in your romantic affairs. * It’s sooooo fun.
