About this listen

Every week on Spilled Milk, writers/comedians Molly Wizenberg and Matthew Amster-Burton start with a food-related topic, from apples to winter squash, and run with it as far as they can go—and, regrettably, sometimes further.2024 Molly Wizenberg and Matthew Amster-Burton Art Cooking Food & Wine

  • Episode 744: Sandwich Crackers
    Apr 2 2026

    Today we encounter high pitched flavors as we taste the brioche of crackers. We name the world's greatest toy and crown a new PEFP as we endure chemical tangs, frissons of danger and failed musical analogies. After some homespun tales and an exciting Spilled Mail, we burst into song yet again even though we hate musicals because it is other people who burst into song.

  • Episode 743: Corned Beef Sandwiches
    Mar 26 2026

    Hey buddies! We're coming to you from medieval times with yet another sandwich episode. As we spend wooden nickels on our favorite carousel rides we second guess our movie knowledge before letting slip a giant reveal about Mr. Etymology. Then we let listeners in on a live comedy workshopping session before finally succumbing to the meat sleepies.

    Matthew's Corned Beef Recipe

    • Rub the brisket all over with lots of kosher salt and spices of your choice. Matthew uses: Black pepper, coriander, cinnamon, allspice, ground ginger, mustard seeds, crushed red pepper, fresh garlic, brown sugar,, and crushed bay leaves. MSG is also a good idea and I used some.
      • Rub the brisket all over, including any crevices, and put it in one of those big 2- or 2.5 gallon zipper bags. Put it in a sheet pan or casserole pan and stick it in the fridge.
      • Flip it over daily for a week, rinse and pat it dry, and it’s ready to cook! You can also freeze it at this point.
      • Then braise it for a few hours until tender, and slice.

  • Episode 742: Iodized Salt
    Mar 19 2026

    We are burning the midnight oil to bring you one more thing to worry about, goiters. We meet some French chemists and give ourselves a totally achievable goal for 2026 as we decide to let them eat caviar. After a visit to The Goiter Belt we address our own snobbery and delusional taste buds before tackling crystalline structures and musician magicians.
