Today we embrace our fears and pepper our tongues as Matthew recounts the hardest thing he has ever done. Through excessive chewing sounds we discuss death by whipping cream, the best position to eat pepper flakes and Molly's new business venture before launching into a signature fiery rant.

Episode 699: Pasta Lengths
Listeners, we all know that a sequel 7 years in the making is better than the original so here we are. Today we leave widths behind as we go to lengths to talk about palindromes, half sleeves, drills and lathes as we declare our nesting qualities and ask ourselves whether we are short or long. Finally Matthew reveals he is a Pasta Prude while Molly shocks us all with her cavalier attitude.

Episode 698: Italian Sodas 2
Turns out we've got another climax in us so we're bringing you a second treatise on Italian Sodas. Molly gets caught pneumatic tube cheating while Matthew attempts a keynote joke as they sip these grown up sodas that still aren't peaty enough for our tastes. Listen, we've been using divining rods to do vibe checks since time immemorial so trust us to know the difference between France and Italy.

Episode 697: Italian Sodas
Today we're again late to the party by a few decades as we sample the sun dried tomatoes of sweetened beverages. We acknowledge that this episode is rough because no one cares, but no raspberries were harmed in its creation so there's that. After we wonder what Italian Sodas were doing between 1933 and 1982, we end up washed up and thrown out along with some scary goo.

Episode 696: Turmeric
Protect your collars and don't crowd the meatballs because its time for Turmeric Talk! We're inspired by milk and soup as we enter a postmodern firestorm discussing everything from shoots, roots and rhizomes, the haunting presence of silent letters and the potential sales figures for a flip book of gifs. Whatever you do, don't call it a root!

Every week on Spilled Milk, writers/comedians Molly Wizenberg and Matthew Amster-Burton start with a food-related topic, from apples to winter squash, and run with it as far as they can go—and, regrettably, sometimes further.
