48 – That Filing Cabinet Lady – Julia Child

About the Episode

Julia Child was an American cooking teacher, author and television personality. But did you also know she was a giant fuckin nerd?

This week, Colin brings back his many accents and personalities to tell the story of Julia Child, while Sierra unknowingly makes fun of her the entire time. Join us as we discuss sports that are meant for tall people only, the ‘broom game,’ and the appropriate appropriation of French cuisine.
