🎙Here’s a little taste of this episode:
2:23 Ice Cream Social
From dog surgery to wearing crocs without socks to a visit from Italian VIP’s, this week’s ice cream social has a little bit of everything!
4:26 Ice Cold Facts
Italians are out there trying to tell us to just have gelato for breakfast, and their arguments are somewhat convincing. Plus, Maris explains the process of becoming a certified coffee “Q Grader,” a very real and very exclusive thing that is definitely not based on just “guessing” the roast level of coffee.
12:44 Ice Cream Dream & Review
Maris makes international coffee evaluators everywhere spit out their coffee in shock, Carolyn says “stracciatella” a record number of times, and Marcello does two different Super Mario voices (RIP Bob Hoskins).
24:19 Spin The Wheel Of Toppings
It’s the topping that Marcello has been dreading most of all, and Carolyn is weirdly kind of into it. Plus, Carolyn reveals the origins of the Wheel and Maris gets an exclusive peek at the Wheel itself.
27:04 Will It Float?
Marcello once again must remind Carolyn of the existence of long spoons, and Maris questions all inclusions in float form.
29:27 The Last Bite
Two gelatos in a row, but this next one is a local DC favorite that you can buy anywhere in the US!
