episode 71: [S]laughter is the Best Medicine - Part 1
This week on I’m The Host, chef Blake is behind the stove with sous chefs Ally and Kurt, and we’re going to show YOU how to cook with some REAL bad eggs we just had shipped in from The Dark Knight (2008) and Funny Games (2007).
For a firm omelette, beat three main characters--a father, a mother, and a child--until blended. Stir in firearms, explosives, and bludgeoning instruments. Once your protagonists are thoroughly abused, you can add a dash of comeuppance for a classic omelette, or simply throw into the pan with a dash of metafiction for a quick and dirty meal that practically makes itself!
Now we’re going to take a short commercial break, but when we come back, we’ll be discussing the pros and cons of different cooking techniques and what to watch out for so that your breaking bread doesn’t end up breaking BAD!
Don’t go away! We’ll be right back!
THIS SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! Bats vs. Clowns! Bats vs. Knives! Biscuits vs. Breadrolls! BE THERE! BE THERE! BE THERE!
