Join Justin and Andy as they break up the monotony of their 30’s with conversation and food.
After nine months away from the microphones, we return to the table with some herbal liqueurs. We try some well developed staples alongside a couple that were brewed and infused at home. Get yourself out to the garden or the liquor store and get yourself some herbal liqueur. And don't forget your earbuds so you can listen to the episode.

Goodbye to Andy. It was an incredible three year run. Thanks to all who joined us along the way. If you haven't yet, make sure you go listen to the latest episode that came out on Friday. There's three years of fun episodes to go back and listen to as well.

It is with the saddest of hearts that we must announce that this Friday's episode will be the last Snackdown episode. If you've noticed we've missed a few episodes here and there this year as Andy's life has been in an evolving state. That evolution has turned into a decision by him and his family to move south and out of New York. The dominoes fell very quickly and we are kind of in shock as he will be gone within a week. We can't put into words how much the opportunity to do Snackdown together has meant to both of us. All of the people we've met, all of the listeners that we've had the opportunity to chat with, all of our patreon members, all the food and drink we've had... the list of great things this podcast has brought us is endless. Most of all the time we spent together and the smiles it brought to people will live in our hearts forever. We can't thank you all enough for all of your support. Please enjoy the last episode and go back and relive the memories in the old ones. We will be.
That being said, there is a possibility we will pick up the podcast in some future form remotely once Andy is settled in. What that is we don't know yet so stay tuned and don't stop keeping in touch with us. Love eachother, try new food and drink, and cheers to change. It's not always easy but what fun would life be if it wasn't challenging.
Happy Friday everyone! Welcome back Yıldız to an episode where we travel all around the world. With the help of a Trader Joe's Chocolate Passport and an imagination brush we travel to 8 different countries (plus a pit stop in Turkey) to pair chocolate with wine and other food and drink. If you like wine, chocolate, and hearing how bad we are at geography, give this episode a listen!

Happy Friday! This week we muddled some limes with some sugar and filed our glasses with Cachaça. This popular Brazilian liquor is made from 100% sugar cane and perfect for a season changing from snow to rain.
This is a fun episode and we try three different cocktails: the Caipirinha the Batida and a Jaguar's Milk
Listen and enjoy

It's Friday so get ready to Pâté!! This week, back from a short break, we finally try a couple versions of Pâté. (We DID NOT try Foie gras so calm down) How does it pair with chutney and is it discernable from the Fancy Feast version? Listen and find out.

Whoops. Justin forgot to make 3 cocktails. Despite the guilt, they were "pretty good". This Love Potion Number 9 cocktail took our Valentine's evening of chocolate fondue to another level. Listen and laugh with us
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
This week Justin and Andy rekindle thier love of fondue with a romantic chocolate fondue episode. They stare into eachothers eyes while sipping wine and dipping a whole variety of things into the chocolate pot. Does a glazed donut covered in warm, melted chocolate sound good?
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
This week is all about the sweets. Thanks to , Andy brought Justin a couple delicious cupcakes with the frosting piled high. There's Bavarian chocolate cream, cream cheese frosting, cookie dough, and more. Check out this sweet tooth of an episode and all the other great episodes.

What drink makes you stare longingly out the winter window? Hoping for a peek of spring but finding out that reality is really just a white and bitter cold vastness....
Put those pinkies up and turn those frowns upside down because we have a new episode out today and it's a fancy one. We try the French liqueur Chambord and definitely have a little too much to drink. Check out the episode, it will warm you down to your core.

This is a sourdough grilled cheese with aged cheddar, smoke gouda, and fig and walnut butter. Pinkies up folks.This week is all about grilled cheese. We tried to class up the sandwich a bit and we had some great results. We recorded remote so you'll get 6 sandwiches in one podcast. Feeling lucky?

Have you ever tried Kombucha? If you like to laugh and learn at the same time, check out our episode with Dan Hesler where he teaches us about kombucha making. We got to try a bunch. This picture shows some of our empty bottles.
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
A nice loaf of sourdough to compliment our fermented episode. Thanks Dan Hesler for coming on the show, bringing the bread, and teaching us about kombucha. It was a blast. Listen if you haven't yet.
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
Happy Fermented Friday! This week we welcome Dan Hesler onto the podcast to talk about and drink a whole table full of Kombuchas. It's a very funny and also informative episode so definitely check it out. We also delve into a couple other fermented foods like sourdough! Listen in and enjoy!

Happy Christmas Eve!! We hope your holidays are happy and healthy and full of good food and drink. This week we finally found time to record again and we mulled some hot holiday beverages. We compare traditional Swedish Glögg with store bought Glögg, along with cookies and traditional Wassail. It's a fun and strange holiday episode and worth a holiday commute listen. Tell the kids in the back seat to pipe down because Justin and Andy are talking. Have a great Christmas!!
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
Pizza!!!!! If you like it, this week is full of it. This is actually not the pizza that we ate this week with guest . We got so excited to eat it we never took pictures of it. This is still a Justin original though (and actually still shaped by Casey).
Everything on this cheese and oregano pizza is made from scratch, right down to the dough and the sauce. Perfecting homemade pizza is a hobbie worth delving into, because when you get it right, it can be even better than from a pizza shop. If you want the dough or sauce recipe, DM us and we'll gladly send it your way. And by all means go listen to the episode and have a great Friday!

Halloween is over but chocolate and candy are forever. If you are in Syracuse head over to Speach Family Candy Shoppe, a hidden gem that we never knew about and definitely will be returning to. Check out our episode where we get a major sugar high off truffles, brickle, and much more. It's also a very funny episode about costumes, Tarot cards, and Halloween.
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
The darkest timeline is an unnerving place where many things have gone awry and the hosts of Snackdown have made many strange decisions. Do they still make a podcast in this world? Maybe someday we'll find out. Until then, have a happy Halloween, eat a lot of food, send us pictures of your costumes, and listen to our very funny Halloween episode.
linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
This week's episode was very funny and absolutely loaded with content. We wore costumes, got our cards read, and ate some weird and sugary treats. Thanks to Jessica for coming on the show and for being a great guest. If you haven't listened to the podcast yet and want to jump in, this is a perfect episode to upgrade your Halloween weekend.

If you haven't heard of Ratafia that's ok because we hadn't either until a fan brought it to us from Spain. This herbal digestif can be made from many things, usual grapes, however the one we tried was made with a base of green walnuts. It's complex in flavor and quite good. Go find yourself a bottle and try it. Even if you have to travel to Spain. And while your on your flight, listen to the episode where we try it.
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
Happy Friday everyone! This week we take a trip to across the sea in the form of Ratafia brought to us directly from Spain and authentic Spanish desserts from Otro Cinco. Pictured is a Basque Cheesecake, Spanish Almond Cake, and Otro's own vegan chocolate cake. Check them out and thier new menu. They are doing great things!

This episode contains the most fall tasting cocktails we've ever had. Figs, apple butter, cider, cinnamon and more. If you want to drink the feeling of being in an orchard, in a flannel, on a crisp autumn day check out the episode and drink along with us. It's also a funny episode that kind of gets off the rails. Perfect for an October Friday.
Linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
Got noodles? This week we did. We headed down to Kasai and picked up two bowls along with a couple other things. As the temperature dips into the chill, pop on a sweater and eat a hot bowl of soup. Getting fresh Ramen is so much better than the cheap, dry packages. Right? Listen to our episode and enjoy a hot and brothy conversation.

Happy October! Listen this week as we dive into a bunch of pumpkin drinks. The beers are thick like squash and the cocktails have a zing of spice. It's a fun episode and we talk a bit about Justin's recent vacation. Give it a go.
https://linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
Wow, it's been a while since we posted on Facebook. If you didn't know, theres been two great episodes since we last posted.

Tomorrow (the 14th) is the day! Come on out to Burried Acord and grab a beer and some brunch at Petit Nosh and hang out with us and Anthony. The weather looks great and there's a big enough outdoor seating/standing area that if you are having health concerns about being inside it should be accommodating. We will be outside for sure.
Also, today's episode was full of wonderful desserts made by Don Weiranga. We ate outside on a rooftop in downtown Syracuse and it was a great setting for a wonderful evening. Make sure you check out the episode.
linktr.ee/snackdownpodcast
It's another late night edition of Snackdown! We dive into pool of freshly picked blueberries and try everything from cheeses and muffins, to a fresh fruit cocktail. Justin also brings his dinner on to the episode and Andy can't stop taking about it. It's another funny and Friday worthy episode so check it out in the link below.
