On Cyrus Says today we are joined by Amit Doshi, Kajol Srinivasan and the star for the week Abbas. Cyrus rants on buying expensive protein and how he could use protein sponsors. The Kajol and Kunal saga continues, Cyrus' failure in setting up the dinner between Kunal and Kajol, the passing of legendary singer KK (Krishnakumar Kunnath) after performing at a concert in Kolkata, the importance of looking after one's health, and more. They also talk about the guy from Bangalore who applied for divorce because his wife could not cook any food other than Maggi, the fascinating fact that if you Google with your birthdate or any other date combined with 'Florida man', Google gives you what happened back in the years, the UP bride who refused to marry the groom because he did not hire a wedding photographer and Canada's PM announcing bill to 'freeze' handgun ownership. Tune in for this and much more.

Welcome back to To Die For and episode 78! We are still soaking in the sunshine metaphorically) in Florida! This week we have special guest host Connor filling in for Noodles and getting a good old fashioned ghost story.  Scarlett O'Hara's is a quirky little restaurant that is so haunted they named their bar the "Ghost Bar." The original owner of the home decided he liked it so much he would spend his after life there and now he is part of the crew. Grab a drink, soak in the tub (or not) and get ready for this spooktastic story.

Noodles, robots, and ice cream oh my! This week we visit U & Me Hotpot, an all you care to enjoy hotpot spot where service isn't just automated, it's animatronic! From peas hoots and black fungus to udon and shaved lamb, U & Me is a 'what you make of it' sort of place, so what did we make of? Well - Joy goes hard on some dumplings, Carlos lives his best rat life, Dylan is a cook time wizard (except when he isn't) and the whole crew get served ice cream  by a cat shaped robot! We beat rainy weather with bone broth - this is Talk With Your Mouthful - U & Me Revolving Hot Pot!

Twenty Pho Hours is brand new to the Orlando food scene but it's packing the heat with a striking visual style, great food, and merchandise actually worth buying! So grab your chili oil and bubble tea and strap in as Dylan talks baby squids, Sophie has a spring roll epiphany, and Carlos learns the definition of No Refunds and Exchanges to disastrous results.

Welcome back to To Die For! We are back for episode 74 and we are joined by our fave guest-host Brit! Lizza really managed to bungle the timing on this one as we head to “Mother Russia” for the next several weeks. We dive right in with one of the worst of the worst in or out of the USSR; Andrei Chikatilo. You may also know him as "The Butcher of Rostov", "The Red Ripper" and "The Rostov Ripper." No matter what name you call him he is one of the most horrible serial killers we have covered. So grab your exit buddy, take a shot of vodka, and hold on tight for this bumpy AF ride.

Instant noodles may not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think of healthy food, but Indonesian startup Lemonilo is disrupting the country’s consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry by offering a healthier version of Indonesia's favourite instant meal. The company is building relationships with communities to educate them on the importance of healthy living, while leveraging technology to get healthy snacks into the hands of consumers quickly. On this episode of Moonshot, Lemonilo's Co-Founder and CTO Johannes Ardiant chats with Rohit Agarwal, a principal at Sequoia India and Southeast Asia about the need to take a community-first approach when building a consumer brand,  how Lemonilo is getting its products to market quickly, and why startup founders should pick the right problem before focusing on a solution.

We stand with Ukraine. 

Welcome back to To Die For! We are finally done with the horrors of the Toy Box so we now have to move on to the horrors of an island entirely covered in dolls. This place is definitely the stuff nightmares are made of but don’t worry. We mix in a healthy dose of Lizza butchering the Spanish language (not on purpose) and a weird made up world of rhubarb and psychedelic spiders. It gets pretty weird for this one so grab a stuffy (absolutely NOT a doll) and get comfy as we dive into this nightmare pit. 

Welcome back to To Die For! We are finally back from our hiatus and boy did we bring it hard to start off 2022! We are diving in with our first topic of the year, Toys! We jump straight in to part two of one of the most heinous topics we've ever covered, the Toy Box Killer. This man has leveled up in the torture game so this one comes with the biggest of big trigger warnings.  Buckle up this one is gonna be a bumpy ride.

Welcome back to episode 69 and Happy Halloweeny boils and ghouls! This year we brought in three special guests to help  us get extra spooky ooky all up in this bitch. First off we have stand-in co-host, burlesque buddy and Exorcist fanatic; Brit! Next up is the elusive and unimpressed hubby of Lizza; Mr. J! And finally, being just as elusive as J is Lizza's best buddy and Noodles' wife; Alexis! We all got together (as much as we can being in separate states) and faced Lizza's number one movie fear, The Exorcist. Join us for this slightly abridged recording of our comments, reactions and so much more.

On today's show Aarón and Zarela are joined by Cristina Potters to talk about pasta in Mexican cooking. Cristina has lived in Mexico for over 40 years, and shares her knowledge of Mexican home cooking through her work as an author and tour guide. Together they cover food history, Aaron and Cristina point out ties between Mexican dishes and their European and Arabic influences, and Cristina discusses the spread of ramen noodles in Mexican since the late 80's.

They also each share several recipes: Cristina and Zarela swap their recipes for Caldillo and Caldo de Fideo, and Aaron and Cristinna swap ideas for creating American pasta dishes with Mexican flare.
