Meat Prints & Tofu Nuggets

S3 E22 | Meat Prints and Tofu Nuggets with Sarah Silverman and Todd Glass | Something's Burning

Sarah Silverman and Todd Glass stop by the kitchen for some meat prints and tofu nuggets. We talk Todd’s OCD, Sarah’s experience watching porn, and how great a person Mister Rogers was. I make a new take on chicken and waffles, Todd treats us to Pop-Tart ice cream sandwiches… and I’m serenaded at the end. All in all, a pretty great day.
