Episode 12: The Dark Side of Overeating

We’ve all been there, sobbing heavily through mouthfuls of ice cream and lucky charms, washed down with swigs of cheap whiskey. The sad comic display interrupted only by brief periods of deep compilation of how we got here, quickly followed by more sobbing, eating, then whiskey. This ceremonial perpetuation of the fatness/sadness cycle ensures we remain fat enough that every time you catch your soft, flabby meat bag in the mirror you’ll react in the worst way possible and bury those feelings deep in a carton of ho hos. Sure, overeating can be a lot of fun, but is there a downside to this beloved past time? 

Episode 11: The Beginnings of a Lower Vag (The James Webb Episode)

As Americans, it’s hard for us to imagine that there’s anyone outside these blessed borders of freedom capable of downing as much food as we do. Just occasionally, however, an unlikely contender stumbles up from the underworld to show the true meaning of overeating. In our first deep dive into maniacal masticators, we examine the Australian phenom James Webb. A man who's managed to stack up an impressive list of accomplishments in a short amount of time. Whether it’s breaking a world record, or discovering new galaxies, James makes it look easy.

Episode 10: The Game Plan (Feat. fowl facts)

In today's episode, we're taking a step back to figure out a game plan for Mel. We've only got 3 more months until the Best of the West Wing Fest and we need to make sure Mel has been practicing! Otherwise she's getting chained up in the basement (we might do that anyhow). As a bonus, we'll throw in some chicken facts so you can impress your friends and family this weekend with your chicken knowledge. Does anybody read these descriptions? Comment @theboneinpod on Instagram if so and maybe we'll do something special for you....maybe. 

Episode 9: The History of the Buffalo Chicken Wing

We're back baby!! And today we're discussing who really created the buffalo chicken wing....a topic that, turns out, is full of controversary. We've got fires, chicken councils, and an enraged Dan. We also settle once and for all why exactly it's called the "Buffalo" wing. We're hitting the ground running with this one so all aboard for season 2!! 

Episode 8: Melinda NOSHES Some Wings (Season Finale)

BTP: J-Roc's Shame, Blood Work Reveal Parties, & Boobie Smooches

J-Roc shamefully reveals his eating habits. Mel is outraged at how much titties have inflated (not that kind of titty inflation). Dan attempts to bring an end to the millennial vs. boomer conflict. 

Episode 7: Training Day

From mouth to poop chute, our food takes an incredible journey throughout our bodies. Each stage along the way holds a specific, important function. Unfortunately for Melinda, many of these stages also work to limit the quantity and pace of ingestion. While these can be problematic, the human body can be trained. Today, we stop at nothing to get Melinda into fighting shape, including the addition of “How to repress a gag reflex” to my search history.

Episode 6: When Food Bites Back

All forms of life share in their need to consume some form of sustenance. So it makes sense that all animals spend the majority of their energy acquiring more energy. Some hunt, others graze, and some just pull into the drive through. In a way, life revolves around food. Just as food can give life, it can also take it away. Like some sick twisted irony, the very object that gives life, also holds a propensity for taking it….and I’m not talking about diabetus.
