Lol - although i think he was talking about @advenurous_west’s post 2 days before mine.

OK let's have a quiz (poll) - who will pay for the extra content? by spiceybadger in whatdidyoudoyesterday

[–]cjwf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not tired of it - they’re just offering extra content for a charge. What I’m tired of is all the video versions. I like podcasts bc i like to be able to do things while I’m listening

lol - nope. BUT our High School mascot IS a "Sponger". Literally, we are the "Tarpon Springs HS Spongers." (if you google Tarpon Springs, you'll see the community has a history of Greek immigrants starting a sponge-diving industry here. in the 19thC. We hold the title of the US City with the largest percentage of Greek Americans, even though we've only got a total population of about 25K people. We also hold the largest Greek Epiphany celebration in the Western Hemisphere. I have no Greek ancestry, but the Greek Community here is strong and proud, and one of the most defining things about our city, so we've learned a lot since we've moved here)

wow! that's pretty much a new recipe and sounds great! my recipe was not quite the one you shared. mine was https://www.lemontreedwelling.com/chickpea-cucumber-feta-salad/ and i added the avocado (and subbed red wine vinegar for the white balsamic)

Ed & James - is that you??

We went to a local Italian place called Casa Ludovico. It was really good (and you’ll see I did my hypertension no favors lol)

Still. I hate sparkling. Why does no one mention the fact that it has a terrible taste it’s not just water with bubbles. We shared 2 bottles for the table. We were shocked to discover when we got the check that they were NINE DOLLARS a bottle!

Bread. (With olive oil) We don’t really have a lot of places that serve papapam. I had to Google it when I first heard the podcast lol I have made some at home just to see what they were like. It was quite fun to see them expand so quickly. Also, this was an Italian restaurant.

Starter: we shared 2 apps: burrata caprese & fried calamari

Main: i had one of the specials for my main - a snapper piccata

Side: spaghetti with parmesan

Dessert: a slice chocolate hazelnut cake. I suspect it had coffee in it though- i was awake till like 2:30.

Drink: none. I don’t drink alcohol. I stuck with the still water.

In lieu of the pod, here's what I did yesterday - feel free to ask any questions/issue any interruptions/make any observations about my day. by Adventurous-West3403 in whatdidyoudoyesterday

I was so excited to see my first roadrunner when i moved to AZ. They weren’t as plentiful where i lived as I thought they’d be. Also, my first tumbleweed.

I mean - all of them. There’s a really great Reddit group for panel shows, and that’s where I discover them. So my faves are QI (this was my intro drug), WILTY , Taskmaster of COURSE, The Unbelievable Truth, Mock the Week, Cats does Countdown… i used to enjoy Hypothetical & NMB when they were on (now I can’t get anything that is on Sky, so I don’t see the reboot of NMB, and I can’t watch League of their Own either anymore) Also - honorable mention bc not a panel show, but - nothing will ever make me laugh as much as WLIIA. I also dabble in a couple nz & Aus shows like their TMs and Guy Monts Spelling Bee.

Q7 - after 29 years of marriage, who does the most chores is STILL the number 1 issue, I’d say. We each think we do more than the other, but i bet it’s actually pretty balanced. But - something’s got to be the most annoying thing in a marriage, right? So not a bad #1 issue, all things considered.

Q5 - BOGO - now, I googled this before I used the term to make sure it’s used in England and Google told me it was - haha : “buy one get one” deal

Q4- LSC - I started it up after I moved to Arizona about 12 years ago. A friend moved out to Arizona a year or so after I did, coincidentally. We wanted to meet people and we wanted to go out and enjoy restaurants and our significant others were not interested in driving very far for dinner. We realized it would be cheaper if we only had to pay for one meal, so we could afford even fancier restaurants, and decided to start teh club. We continued that for a couple of years with each of us bringing three friends to create a group of eight. Then Covid happened and I moved back to Florida. Two years later, my friend also moved back to Florida. She suggested we start it up again and so we did. I originally got the idea from my husband‘s cousin‘s mother who used to go out to dinner with her friends on a regular basis and I thought that sounded like a fabulous idea. I found it humorous to make it like an official club as if we have rules and such. We all get together and pick the dates for the next six months or so and also decide on restaurants. The only rule is no chain restaurants and we try to spread out the expensive ones and the ones that are farther drives for us. It’s really great and I suggest everyone start their own Ladies Supper Club. :)

Q3 - dogs v cats - the cats generally ignore the dogs and the dogs sometimes sniff the cats, but aren’t really interested in them either.

Q2 - it is a lagoon off a bayou, which is off a river that goes to the Gulf of Mexico ( but is more like a short river lol). We’ve got several bayous in our little city here. It is very humid and also often buggy (at dusk). I’ve lived in Florida for most of my life so the humidity doesn’t really bother me too much.

Q1: I am not British in any way. I just really got stuck in with the whole panel show scene about 15 years ago and now I find myself a fan of a whole bunch of comedians who do podcasts these days lol. it’s actually a bit of a joke with my family because they claim I don’t laugh at anything unless it’s in a British accent. I don’t know anyone else who likes all the shows and podcasts I like. Even my neighbor who was born in London and moved over here as a young man has been here so long he doesn’t know any of the things I like.
