Nosh Show Episode 32: Thirst Avenger

You can subscribe to The Nosh Show using various services: iTunes, Stitcher, Swell app, SoundCloud, TuneIn, RSS, or, you can also download the episode. Thanks for listening for the past year!
PART 2 OF THE CROSSOVER: THE NOSH SHOW GUYS WERE ON NERD LUNCH!
Haven’t had ENOUGH of me and the Nosh Show guys yappin’? Well, then listen to Part Deux of the Nosh Show / Nerd Lunch Crossover, as we hopped on their show to do a Fast Food Draft! From the Nerd Lunch Website:
“The Fourth Chair is crowded this week as returning guest Dubba from episode 96 brings with him three of his friends. The ENTIRE crew from The Nosh Show joins us and we do a Fast Food Draft. The rules were simple, we each had to pick a burger/beef entree, chicken entree, side item, drink (something you can suck through a straw) and a wild card item from the QSR top 20 list of fast food and quick service restaurants. There was drama and intrigue and by the end we were all very hungry.”
A fun time was had by all. And hey – if you’d like to vote for who had the best Fast Food Draft, do so here:
See you tomorrow, Junk Food Nation!
Thoughts? Please comment below or hit me up on Twitter @junkfoodguy or LIKE my Facebook Page and message me there. I also have Google+!! Let’s hang out.
Sincerely, Junk Food Guy

Congrats on three years! Hopefully there are many more to come!
@IE: Thanks man! I forgot to give a shout out to you, too – my bad. You’ve been a huge supporter as well! THANK YOU!
I’m actually working on my own best fast food meal. It’s actually proving to be quite tough to pick one in each category. It was difficult picking which entry from the Fast Food Draft because everyone had picks of stuff I liked, never tried or didn’t care for. In the end, it was between Jeeg & Ryan and I chose Ryan’s.
Question, JFG – since you review basically 5 snacks a week – are your cabinets full of opened packages? Do you seal them or just fold the bag over? I use office clips – they’re cheap & they last for decades.
Oh ya – congrats on 3 years, JFG! I’m sure you enjoyed a lot of it & getting the free stuff!
@MP: Thanks man!
@MP: All the open packages go to the office – co-workers are more than happy to vulture
Happy blog anniversary! So glad I found your site a year ago – looking forward to many more posts/years of Junk Food Guy.
@Liz: Thank you!
Thanks for your three years of eating and writing! I’ve looked for and avoided many different snacks based on what I’ve read here, so needless to say this blog has become an invaluable resource. I’m glad you started it and that I was somehow able to find it.
@Devin: Thanks, Devin!
BTW: Duncan opts back in for only $10 mill – amazing. Class act
Congratulations! What an undertaking! I have enjoyed every second of reading! And your stylist deserves some props too! Bills are playing the hall of fame game and Andre Reed is being inducted! Woot woot!! watching Chile now!
@Sarah – THANK YOU! Are you still in Buffalo?
Congrats dude.
@Marc P: thanks man!
Congrats on 3 years! Just think of the total caloric sum of all the food you have consumed for the blog. Way to sacrifice. You have also provided readers with some great bathroom and subway stories. Keep them coming.
@Brent: Thanks man! Who doesn’t love a good subway story 🙂
Happy 3 years! I did vote but only be reading the menus. My short attention span kicks in high gear upon listening or watching anything. Reading is easier. I’m so glad I’m done with school!
@Sarah: Awh, you should watch – you’ll like it!
Congrats on 3 years! 😀
By the way, today’s (6/23) Google soccer feature is hilarious! It features the letters at the office watching the game on TV with letter “E” as the lookout guy then flipping to a business chart when the letter “B” as the boss goes by…
@Elisa: haha, nice. Love the daily google animation!
Congrats on 3 years of excellence in the field of Junk Food Criticism! Nice video though I was awaiting the outtakes and what no “Food Pun” tag for the “biting off more than you could chew” line?
@Kahnfucius: I couldn’t think of anything!
Happy Anniversary, Eric. We’re all fortunate beneficiaries of your due diligence to this blog for all of this time. Thank you for the news, analysis, pics and all of that other good stuff. Now keep those arteries nice & clear so can get at least 3 more years of this goodness.
Best wishes
@John Rhem: Thanks man! Yeah, it might be time for my physical soon….
Never had Chipotle’s and don’t care for Starbucks,but the rest of the meal is pretty solid. Overall best is Jeeg though. As for me, I’d go with the Arby’s Angus 3 Cheese and Bacon (beef), Rally’s Spicy Chicken (Chicken), Popeyes Cajun Fries (side) Taco Bell Manzanita Sol (drink) And Chick-fil-A Chocolate Peppermint Shake (wild card).
@Sascha – I haven’t been to a Rally’s! Good?
Yes….STILL in buffalo. Today’s big adventure is Target, I know they won’t fail me on Reese Oreos…..on sale this week. Finally get to try them!
