Hello, ya little fruitcakes! On episode 68 of HINKY, the gang gets ready to celebrate both Christmas and New Years as we record the show the week of the holidays. We start off by sending our thoughts and condolences to our friends out in Western KY who lost everything after a devastating tornado hit the area a couple of weeks ago. If you have the means and want to contribute to relief efforts, there are lots of good places to donate your time, money and/or much-needed items for the victims out there. We talk about whipped feta and whether we think it's the new, hip appetizer, and Sara talks about a new local pizza place she tried in London.

Hello, ya little dippers! On episode 65 of HINKY (not episode 66 like some ding dong said on the show), the gang dips into some fun stuff! We start out the show by trying a non-alcoholic bourbon from Australia, which went over just as well as one would think in the historic Bourbon Room at Fort Lewis studios. We also talked about the end of daylight savings time, the kind soul who found Sara's lost wallet, eating vegan food on the way to the Louisville Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular, and going to various craft fairs. Renee talks about all the local places around Lexington that are offering up Thanksgiving dinners to go and she tells us about some other exciting food news from around town. We play a game of Dorito's Roulette in Everybody Tries, as well as celebrate Lexington Pizza Week by trying a slice from LaRosa's Pizza.
