The Side Dish from America's Test Kitchen

In this episode, Bridget’s travel hack sandwich makes a grand cameo, and we promise that it's impressive. Julia and Bridget also dish about their favorite restaurants, the fun antics on stage at their PBS road shows, and weigh in on what is (and isn’t) acceptable in-flight etiquette. They also cap off the episode with a game of “Fried, Boiled, Raw.”

It's officially Awards season, and our hosts Julia and Bridget kick it off by discussing their favorite films, as well as dropping some behind-the-scenes knowledge about how TV shows and movies make their food look so good. Plus, they discuss which celebrities—dead or alive—they’d invite to dinner. They then call it a wrap after playing a film and TV edition of “This or That.”

In this episode, Bridget and Julia chat about the “Super Bowl for lovers”: Valentine's Day. The hosts discuss how they celebrate this love-filled day with their husbands and children, and the romantic dinner fails that made these celebrations even more special. They also take loved-up listener calls, play a round of “This or That” (romance-style), and test their taste buds with a blind taste test of boxed chocolates.

It's the week of the Big Game, and Bridget and Julia are discussing all things ballpark food. The hosts reminisce about the many tailgating adventures they've shared, their controversial opinions on the architecture of the perfect nacho spread, and what exactly makes the perfect wing. But that's not all—the long-time friends and cooking legends also play a game of “Overcooked/Undercooked,” where they guess how many pounds of guacamole is consumed on Super Bowl day, and compete in a round of sports-food trivia.
