Season 2, Episode 17:  A special episode, just in time for National Dairy Month!  We celebrate those fond ice cream memories of long ago, including Breyer's, Carvel, Good Humor, Mister Softee, Smith's Dairy of Ohio, and a local neighborhood ice cream parlor at Lampert's Dairy Farm in Linden, NJ.  In this podcast series, Tom Nielson tells stories, shares memories, and concocts whimsical, light-hearted tales inspired by his life adventures, channeling the style of Jean Shepherd, Garrison Keillor, Mark Twain, Jerry Seinfeld, and other famous storytellers.

Season 3 is winding down but we're going out with a bang and not a whimper. This week friends and podcast co-hosts Busy Philipps (Girls 5Eva, Busy Philipps is Doing Her Best, Cougar Town) and Caissie St. Onge (Busy Philipps is Doing Her Best, Busy Tonight, Watch What Happens) had a hard time coming up with something argue about but then came up with this: butter pecan vs. mint chocolate chip ice cream. Which one of these ice creams is the best of the worst? Full disclosure, my kid loves both and was devastated to learn these two flavors are unpopular but to be fair my kid hasn't found an ice cream flavor she doesn't like yet.  

This episode covers a lot of fun topics including manufactured olives, David Letterman pushing caviar, Martha Stewart judging the craft services table, deviled eggs and what they're all doing their best at this week.

This week, we sample a dark roast offering from Ladro Roasting called Diablo. Diablo seems to come up a lot with coffees. Also, Dan recalls his best Dante's Inferno experience, we all agree the current level of Guinness World Records is lame, and the unfortunate design flaws of the adorable koala.
