About this episode

The hosts discuss the concept of high-end casual dining, diet culture, and share snack reviews.

Hello, ya little firecracker pops! On episode 182 of HINKY, it’s getting hot outside and we’re not happy about it, which isn’t exactly new, but we keep finding ourselves here somehow. We decided that mid-tier restaurants are now called high-end casual, we wonder if restaurants are starting to cater more to the current diet culture, and Carrie reads an article that get us both mad. We try some pretty great snacks for Everybody Tries, and Sara gives you wiiiiiiiiiings for the HINKY History Lesson. What else do we get into? Follow us wherever you get podcasts to find out!
