Mike Lupica (host) 8:50:09 PM
This song? Or the show? Or are you making brownies?
Mike Lupica (host) 8:52:03 PM
Speaking of brownies, Bo, we recently cracked into the Nutella you won naming rights to a few weeks back. On that note, can we initiate some listener recipe swapping up in here?
john the intern 8:53:51 PM
just made some 10/10 baked falafel this week
Mike Lupica (host) 8:55:24 PM
Damn, every time I've tried baking falafel it all falls apart. Thank god there is no shortage of great falafel available for takeout in my 'hood.
john the intern 8:56:18 PM
I'm not gonna lie it took me about 10 balls to get used to the actual falafel shaping
john the intern 8:56:57 PM
very interesting listening to this while lesson planning for 1st graders :)
Mike Lupica (host) 8:57:40 PM
Oh great, thanks for the added pressure! I will attempt to keep it kid-friendly.
Mike Lupica (host) 8:57:55 PM
Though that changes my plans to play a certain Elton Motello song...

Mike Lupica (host) 9:15:11 PM
Thanks for acknowledging. I think we scared everyone else away!
jimbeaux 9:15:37 PM
For my fine falafel fans...if you're looking for something between home-made and a dusty add-water mix, try Heba's. It's raw/frozen in a slab that you thaw then form. Mmmmmm!
Mike Lupica (host) 9:17:12 PM
Jimbeaux, given how excited you were to earn naming rights to my tahini a few weeks back, I will consider your word expert on this matter.

jimbeaux 9:26:59 PM

Mike Lupica (host) 9:27:03 PM
From her POV, the question is: "Do you not know that your child is attempting to sleep"?
Space Cowboy 9:27:37 PM
