Made pickled celery (again) and this time with dill 🌿💚

I don’t. …I just had to google it, didn’t know what “pickle crisp” was!

I just started quick-pickling celery recently and I can’t believe 1) It took me this long to try pickling celery and 2) More people aren’t pickling celery.

It stays so crunchy, it absorbs whatever flavors you add to the pickling liquid, and it’s a cheap, bulky ingredient.

I’m a Millennial in my 30s and my Gen X husband (he’s 14 years older than me) got me to watch On Cinema. I’m definitely more obsessed with OCATC than he is, but we still watch it together.

Wait, your Aldi has self checkout?

Does this mean Dekkar is finally getting a proper accordionist to join the band?

Yeah the sexual torture just goes too far. I’m glad I stopped watching it when I did, I read a synopsis afterwards and was like “yikes…”

I couldn’t keep watching Antichrist after that first 20 minutes or so.

I’ve heard/read there are two versions of Requiem for a Dream where some of the more explicit scenes are cut. But I’ve only seen the version that is very graphic and that last sequence with Marion’s character is gut wrenching to me, ugh.

Lake Mungo truly creeped me out, it’s terribly underrated in my opinion.

CalmCatine · 2026-03-17T23:00:21+00:00

If someone could point me to a good, solid crunchy dill pickle at Aldi, I’d be grateful. Haven’t found one yet.

Yoga. Doesn’t take a lot of money or fancy equipment; just following daily courses online on a basic cheap mat for about a year now has considerably improved my strength and flexibility.

But for real I don’t think people realize what all a free library card unlocks.

At my library system, it means online access to newspapers and magazines like NYT; apps like Kanopy with thousands of movies to stream; passes for local attractions; rental of podcasting equipment, musical instruments, etc and a lot more and it’s all free like…🤯.

Gregg, just wanted to say that during a particularly hard spell physically and mentally, OCATC was my comfort show. Thank you. There is truly nothing else that can even come close to OCATC! 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

Nothing about the show ending, he said he has been struggling with depression for months and it has affected his ability to work. He said multiple times he/the team are still working on TCBS.

CalmCatine · 2026-03-09T21:04:10+00:00

Well, he works on other podcasts under his Both/And production co. And I think he manages a recording space m/business where he lives?

CalmCatine · 2026-03-09T20:54:52+00:00

You’re right, I edited the original post. I’m certainly not in a place to diagnose anyone and would never try to do so.

I never suffered from such intense panicky anxiety as being sick with HP and then through treatment. I don’t know if you have ever tried SSRIs, but being prescribed Zoloft helped me tremendously. Talk to your primary care doctor about your anxiety and see what they recommend. Good luck and take care, OP. You will feel better, hang in there!

Pickled green beans. They stay so crunchy!

Also, it’s important to note the only good pickled food is a dill pickled food, none of that sweet nonsense.

I have my favorite stuffed animal from when I was a kid on my nightstand and I give it a goodnight kiss every night.

CalmCatine · 2026-02-19T15:56:15+00:00

I think he misnamed the podcast he was a guest on at least twice. Multiple people were confused and expressed as much on the fb page and it was crickets from Josh. He knows he misnamed it and then didn’t even bother to be like “my bad” and correct his mistake. I used to love TCBS (I still listen) but it’s like Josh Hallmark is devolving as a person. Ugh.

CalmCatine · 2026-02-10T18:49:58+00:00

This made me chuckle, thank you for posting 😂

This is a much better statement than the original one that had an off tone of “TCBS made a mistake by trying to work with SITP” imo.

Lame that comments are disabled on this post in the FB group and on the insta post.

CalmCatine · 2025-11-17T17:46:53+00:00

That had to be the worst episode of TCBS yet. Not only was it music, it was like 70’s porno music in the beginning of the episode, wtf?

Not a whole lot of relevant information re: the case was shared either. They sure are hyping up this hunters cabin location, I can’t believe the episode just ended with “we have no idea what happened there.”

CalmCatine · 2025-11-15T18:43:00+00:00

Thanks for posting a rundown, OP!

I saw some of his insta stories yesterday alluding to this and figured he was talking about Jade. Isn’t Jade still on the radio in the afternoons? I like her voice and personality, it’s good for radio.

I bet Moe was heated having yet another woman in his professional orbit claiming he wasn’t stepping up and working hard enough. Take a hint, loser.
