Nick D – Marnie Shure, Peeps, the Quils, and the Flu

In this episode, Nick navigates the not-so-wonderful world of influenza while fueled by hefty doses of both DayQuil and NyQuil. Despite the fog, he welcomes Food Writer/Editor Marnie Shure back to the podcast for her latest Horror Report. They dive into creative fast-food hacks, including how to transform the Wendy’s menu into a towering 9-patty burger. They also chat about Waffle House’s controversial egg surcharge and the surprisingly effective use of candle warmers to melt chocolate. Plus, there’s a taste test of some new seasonal marshmallow Peeps flavors—just in time for spring.

Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to talk about home remedies for the flu and how entertainment has evolved over the years. They discuss the endless stream of movie remakes, the lingering presence of 3-D films, and the shocking affordability of modern TVs. [Ep 326]
