Do they have Giant Eagle in California?

 

I mean, we can probably assume one of the other stores will be Whole Foods given that it's a national store and also they used the Whole Foods font in the logo for the month. I guess that Ralph’s store they always talk about will be one too. Wonder what the fourth will be.

 

No which is why it’s irresponsible

 

Maybe a but generous with the term “grocery store” but Costco would make some sense

 

My wife also said Costco and I disagreed. I don’t think that’s what you think of when you say “grocery store”, you know.

Although their food does rule.

 

Love Trader Joe's. Eating one of their salads right now.

Tikka Masala simmer sauce with their coconut cream, cooked with some chicken thighs over rice served with their frozen Naan is fire. Jerk Plantain chips are the best. Their frozen Orange Chicken is unmatched. Throw their dark chocolate peanut butter cups in the freezer. All their baked and frozen desserts are bomb. The Chantilly Cream Vanilla Cake is insane.

I'm a decent cook, but they also make it so easy to have a fresh, healthy, home-cooked meal even if you have no clue what you're doing.

 

Never expected them to mention Stop & Shop on the pod

 

This is probably harsh and I’m only 20 minutes in but Hodgemans partner sounds like a dud. Getting worried

 

His voice sounds like on of the Sklar brothers at times

 

Nah, he's perfectly fine. It's no different than a typical Hodgman episode.

 

Nah, I agree, Hodgman is a delight but David's enthusiasm for Trader Joe's is definitely overbearing.

 

I always thought Hodgman kinda ruined episodes, he’s fine in this one but for the most part I can’t stand him haha

 

I say this as a total loser myself, but Rees is a fuckin' dork

I'm fairly neutral on Hodgman, not stoked when he's not on but upset either. This other dude is just irritating.

 

Hodgman goes on for far too long about the moooost boooring stuff

 

man i love him

 

I was thrilled that he spent the first 5+ of airtime introducing the people we've listened to for 300+ episodes

 

I like Hodgman a lot (reading his book now actually!) but the other guy was a snooze and I felt like it threw Nick and Mitch off a bit

 

Ironically I had this ep on with my wife who has only heard sporadic episodes so it was nice!

 

I liked his giving background to his uninitiated friend. When he tacked on later on that Wiger is a pedophile I laughed.

 

I haven't even finished the episode yet, I'm not actually upset. It's a totally fine episode. I'm just being petty and taking easy slam dunks on the dude who was introduced as a professional pencil sharpener and eats cheese and peanuts for dinner, he's not a bad guy

 

Yeah he just



talks




Slow

 

David is married to the Mother of Blankies, y'all shut your mouths.

 

Also, knowing California, I'd guess:

Trader Joe's
Ralph's
Whole Foods
Vons

 

Considering where Mitch lives I'd say Gelson's is likely too and I bet 365 rather than Whole Foods proper.

 

Oh so:

7/2
7/9
7/16
7/23
7/30

Five eps, so yeah, Gelson's seems likely.
