Chewing sounds is sadly no more, but from its smoldering ashes rises a new brother/sister podcast: Don't Tell Mom the TV is Our Mom!
In this new format, Karen and Tony revisit the 90's cable TV movies that shaped their childhoods...for better or worse.
First up, the 1994 heavy metal classic, Airheads!

Stuffed Squash (from the archives)
In this very special episode, we reach way back into the vault, back before Chewing Sounds chewed its first sound, and dust off an episode we recorded in 2019. It's all about the Splendid Table's Stuffed Winter Squash (https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2015/11/06/stuffed-winter-squash), seasonal depression, and IBS. We hope you love it!
