Movies filled with too much love, containers filled with too much soda, and gas tanks filled with too much air. This week the Hungry Cliff team conducts a taste test on several new(ish) cookie varieties. Somehow the conversation turns to other food and various food-related mishaps. Also, pursuant to our founding principle of providing timely commentary about current events, we finally talk about the Tony Awards and a two-year-old piece of tech. We really want someone to win the HCFW4U contest, so email Tony with your answers!

LeBron explodes at local gas station, MB reaches [CC] near the TP, and a free bag of ice with the purchase of any value meal. This week, the Hungry Cliff podcast team sifts through another pile of random thoughts. Why is it called the BMT? Of what does the diet of large lake-bound bass consist? Who watched the Tony Awards? Where are restroom-themed restaurants really located? When will somebody win our contest? How many miles must a car drive before someone should take a commemorative photograph of its odometer? How can we make more people read these podcast descriptions? Tune in for all this and an obscure Japanese culinary reference.   Media: LeBron James Six Mix Tony Awards Tsukune   Apps: Cycloramic   Board games: X-Wing Miniatures By James Kniffen et al.

Eleven cats in four weeks, ten updates in four months, and twenty-two discs in four years. The Hungry Cliff podcast team finally has some tech to talk this week with Apple's annual WWDC! There are a couple of important birthdays and anniversaries coming up (but no quinceañeras, thank you). Also, something about shoes. There is still no contest winner, so listen to podcasts 19 through 22 if you haven't already. Last week we handed out a pretty big clue, too. Email Tony with your guesses and maybe you'll win something cool.

The Call of Cth-Hulu, What the Moon Brings (is David), and The Terrible Old Spider-Man. There's no business like talking about show business this week on the Hungry Cliff Podcast. We chat about movies, theater, and television, as well as our respective capacities to remain conscious during their presentation. It seems we've taken some awfully expensive naps over the years.
