In a new annual tradition, Geoff took your Thanksgiving (mostly) food related questions, answered them, and rambled quite a lot. Also touching on things like: safety in food preparation, anise, trends in ER visits around holidays, big hunking cuts of meats, historical notes in Greek cuisine, Skyline chili, probably insulting a bunch of nationalists by discussing food, the impact of salt when cooking, what to do with leftovers, where wine was invented, getting good value in wine, a reminder Cornell is a land grant, Missouri geography and viticulture, that Indiana has a state wine, when to travel for Thanksgiving, food as an expression of emotion and affection and openness as a society, and probably your question somewhere.

The teams are set, and Blu and Geoff spent some time getting the table set with a preview of the Extra Points Bowl and the ForeverLawn Bowl, with everything you need to know about the schools and teams. And some very specific Wabash College beef Geoff has.

Geoff is joined by Matt Brown of Extra Points to discuss The Extra Points Bowl (of which Feed Your Mascot is *also* a sponsor of), how it happened, the process of sponsoring and planning a bowl game, what it will be like on November 22 in Caton, and how you can watch (in person, or via FloSports).

Blu and Geoff start off with evaluating whose expectations are met (and whose are very not), Colorado-TTU, Miami-GT, The Holy War, UGA-Mississippi, a repeatable pattern holding, and ND-FSU (Geoff does not know why Blu watched this).
