Binary System Podcast #338 – Thanksgiving Food Special and Lore Olympus

Happy Thanksgiving! (Or, if you don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, Happy Thursday!)

Somehow after last week’s recording we got on the subject of cookbooks, specifically the “Little House on the Prairie” cookbook that we checked out from the library a dozen times before we got smart and bought our own copies. And that led to a discussion about the best food in the Little House books, which led to the best food in all our favorite books, which led to us wondering why the heck we weren’t recording this!?

Just in time for Thanksgiving, please enjoy a selection of our favorite foods from our favorite books (content warnings for any non-meat eaters out there, ’cause vegetarian this ain’t), followed by a quick recap of Lore Olympus 219 and 220, because we’re gonna stay on our arbitrarily determined schedule goshdarnit!
