The Jason Show: 'Traitors' celebrity cast, 'A Killer Story,' Stephanie Hansen

My mom had an observation about the show yesterday. And your mother, people should know, your mother does not hold back. She has very strong opinions about the show. Like me. Yeah. She says you use a word too often. Which one? Butthole. Guilty? As charged. Roll the open. Here we go. It's like the Arsenio Hall show up in here. That's right. If you're young, Google it anyway. Well, hey, I'm optimistic. Sometimes Mondays, the Monday audiences, because we're all hung over. They're a little sleepy. Not today. Well, welcome to the show, everybody. First up today, this is one of my favorite weeks. And it's back. Celebrating girth. And lots of hair. Ladies and gentlemen, it's fat bear week. It's underway in Alaska. The National Park there features 16 of the biggest bears in a competition to find the chunkiest of them all. That's right. Fans can vote on the park's website right there. It's a 32 chunk. There's another chunk there. Look at it. Look at those bears, Aaron. Look at that. A winner will be named next week. This is the one time of year when, oh, girl, you look huge, is a compliment. That's right. Yeah. Next, it's a good day right now. You know, the Jason show, we're all over the country. And one of my favorite places, we did our season premiere there, is Orlando, home of Walt Disney World. And today, today is a really good day to ride. One of my favorite rides, Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind. It actually is my favorite ride. So everyone who takes a spin today, look at this ride if you've never seen it, will hear the song September by Earth, Wind and Fire. It's all because, and you guys are figuring this out, today is September 21st, which is mentioned in the song. Do you remember? Yeah, that 20th. Anyway, I'm not going to sing it. Anyway, I'm neither Earth, Wind nor Fire. Anyway, typically, typically the ride, if you don't know, they rotate between six songs. My favorite actually is Conga. And I love it so much. I would absolutely ride it six times just to make sure they run September all day today. Well, today on the show, a new streaming series I'm obsessed with, plus a fall dessert from Stephanie Hansen, with an ingredient that I don't know should be in a dessert, but I trust Hansen sometimes. Anyway, that's all coming up. But filling in for Falun, give it up for Erin Schwab. Hello, beautiful. Hello, how are you? I'm well, how are you? I am terrific. And I'm very excited about Fat Bear Week. I am too. I love Fat Bear Week. Also, the audience is very quiet during this. People aren't familiar with Fat Bear Week. It's the best week ever. I guess you guys don't, the bears are not offended. No, no. It's okay for you to have joy from fat bears. In fact, it's good for them. The bigger they are, the happier they are while they're, you know, hibernating. So they got it. And the national or the park service there makes so much money because they sell merch. It is such a good, it's such a great thing. It's so fun. I vote every year. We follow it on the radio show every year. I love it. I love Fat Bear Week. How would you, you did a pro, Erin not only is a member of our family, I call her the Bette Midler of the Twin Cities. How was your show this weekend? Super great. It was really fun. Was there any nudity? There was no nudity. Okay, I just always like to chat. No, but I do, I tell stories about my life in the show. And so I was telling a story about how when I was in seventh grade, I was like not really very popular. And I'd gone to a school where I was, I was like, and it's like, I grew up in a, in a city where, or in a part of town where like, you were just happy to have pants. Yeah. And then I went to a town where like the seventh grade girls, like had their mom's Dayton's cards and could get all the pants. Right. And so it was just like a culture shock. And they, the, so I went there and the boys called me Cujo, like the rabid dog. It's true. Yeah. Why did the boys call you Cujo? What do, why do seventh grade boys do anything? That's very true. Yeah. Okay. So then I woke up in the summer of, uh, before eighth grade and I, I looked like this. Yeah. And then I got these. And so I went from like, no, no tank top. The audience truly doesn't know what to do with us today. We have stunned them silence three to four times and the damn show just started. I think they're just listening with breath. They want to know where it goes. Anyway, I woke up like this. So then I was like, you know, now all of you boys that called me Cujo will never have access to any of this. They're waiting for my punchline. Shutting her down. They're waiting for my punchline. But a lady came up to me and she said, oh my gosh, I just married one of the boys that knew you in, in, in junior high. And I was like, what's his name? She said, I think he was one of the ones that called you Cujo. She married one of the mean boys. He grew up and wasn't a dumb seventh grade boy anymore. But I was like, just so you know, I'm pretty sure he never had access. So that's right. Yeah. He never made out with them. I know, but it was really nice of her to share that with me. That you can remember. That I can remember. It was a long time ago. Well, speaking of life stories, you know, last week, you may remember I shared with you all here that I accidentally was using makeup remover wipes on my butt. You know, on my, yeah, I was, yeah. I thought they were the butt wipes. Sorry, Jeff's mom's going to be mad at me. What would she prefer you call it? I don't know. But I was using the makeup wipes that I use on my rear end because I thought they were the butt wipes. So we got a really big reaction on our social media pages. I know this isn't one of them, Jeff, but I do remember someone sent me, someone sent me a personal one that went, that's a lot of information for your audience. Yeah. You helped someone that day. I helped someone. That was the more you know. Sparkle, sparkle, sparkle. That's what it is. Don't use, don't use the wrong wipes on the wrong spot. Well, speaking of that, a few of you shared your own product mistakes. Tammy wrote to us, hey, Jason, I use my diamond dazzle ring polisher on my teeth instead of my crest whitening pen. They look very similar. I'm loving my fifties fog. Yeah, that's what we're, that's what we're in right now. Yeah. Can you imagine using that on your teeth? I can't. Actually. Yeah. Well, one more from Carrie. Hi, Carrie. She says, hey, Jason, when I was 10, I used my mom's face wipes and thought they smelled different. When my mom and aunt realized I had used her tux hemorrhoid pads on my face, on my face, they had quite a laugh. Yeah. Aren't they like the original under eye patch though? I think they are. Yeah. Look at the people nodding. One time we were having a party. I love that this audience knows hemorrhoids. I love that. I mean. Yeah. One time we had a party at my house and I had first the dog food had been brought up and put on the counter and we looked over and my dad was just like snacking at the thing and he was like, these are not, what is this? It's not very good. We're like, that is dog food. He was like, I thought they were like the little cookies, the pepperness. I was like, that's not pepperness at all. That's Alpo. Crunchy deliciousness. That's right. Speaking of this audience, they've come on a good day because today we found out that there's a pizza party going on. There's a pizza, a state fair. Thank you. Pizza party. And we, we, we are not invited because we're, we're doing the show. So I'm taking just, just to irritate the executives and say, thanks for inviting us. I'm taking all these people for steak. That's right. Yeah. And I'm putting it on the boss's credit card. That's what I'm doing. You're watching a pizza Luce across the parking lot. We'll take whatever you want to say. That's right. We'll just bring in the flaming young boys. That's right. The hotness and more when we returned back in the moment, everybody Topics in the hot dish coming up next, we now know the celebrity cast of the new season of the traders. Then the Jason show watch club. Other talk shows, read books, not us. I'm going to tell you about an HBO documentary series that you have to watch. Then our guests, the host of taste buds. Stephanie Hanson is in the kitchen making a dessert with a very unique ingredient. We'll call it Mountain Dew, but the Jason show will be right back. Wait till you see what she's putting in the dessert. I'm not ready for it. Welcome back to the show. It's time for the hot dish. Roll it, Leo. Here we go. Let's do some hot topics, shall we? First up, the wait is over for fans of three-time Emmy and winning a reality show. The traders over the weekend. We found out which stars will be facing off for the upcoming sixth season. The stage is set for a new season of the traders and what a company we've assembled. Kristen Chenoweth, Cordy Simpson, Giselle Bryant, Taylor Hale, Whitney Levitt, Casey Wilson, Cynthia Bailey, Bianca Del Rio. That's a few of them. A few of them. You can see the rest of the... That's just a few of the actors, housewives, athletes, drag queens, influencers competing on the next season. A total of 23 contestants are joining the show, which will premiere early next year over there on Peacock. Okay, so let's break down a few of them, friends. First, Kristen Chenoweth. I mean, I don't need to tell you who that is. Okay, Erin, how do we think she is going to do on this? I thought about it. I thought about it when I saw it. I love that she's the first name that comes out on everything about this right now. Yeah. I think it's really interesting. Let's be clear, she's probably the biggest name. I mean, yeah. I'm going to be honest with you. I think she's going to be so annoying. I think she will annoy them all. I think she's going to annoy them all into thinking that they have to keep her around or she's going to be everybody's favorite. It's like that. Do you think they pick her as a trader? Oh, yeah. I don't think she'd be a good trader. She might. She's an actor. She's a good actor. She is. You're right. She could fake it. She's played a witch. She's played a good witch who's actually really bad. That's right. Gah, Linda. Yeah. But I think she's going to sing songs all the time and it's going to make them want to vote her off. Yeah, or anyway, yeah. A friend of the show, Craig from Southern Charm. Here he is on our show last season. Okay, I don't know. I don't know if he, I don't think he's going to annoy anyone. He'll be fun to look at. He was very nice. I think he'll be one of those, like Jeff just said, he'll fly under the radar and could actually be an underdog. He could be really good at this. Because you got to, I was thinking of this, you got to go right down the middle. You can't talk too much, to your point of Kristen, like Lisa Renna or you can't be too quiet. Lisa Renna last year, she's known for talking and she got really quiet, which made her a target to everybody. Oh yeah. You got to go right down the middle. I also think it's, I always think it's interesting. I love this show and I love Bravo shows. I watch more Bravo shows than I watch like the reality competition shows. And so I know more of them, but I do think it's interesting how the game players game and the reality people are kind of figuring out how to play the game more and more each season. So it'll be interesting to know. RuPaul Drag Race winner, Bianca Del Rio. If you are not familiar, let me just, audience, take it from us on the staff. If you are not familiar with this universe, trust and believe she will cut you in your sleep. Yeah, yeah. She will cut you in her sleep. And also, Bianca has the best, I want to see her at the round table. Yeah. Because if people come for, for Bianca, they will annihilate you. I mean, and I cannot wait to, I think Bianca is going to be probably one of the best players. Do you think they're going to play as Bianca? Or do you think they're going to play? I don't, I'm sorry. I don't know that drag queen's name. I think it's always go by Bianca. Probably just always as Bianca. Yeah. Up next, a star-studded event. You can watch again next year. A star-studded event in Hollywood this weekend. Countless stars showed up to celebrate the opening of the George Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in LA. The billion-dollar museum features the personal collection of George and his wife, Melody Hobson, including movie props and pieces of Van, from Van Gogh and more. And not just Star Wars stuff, the Wizard of Oz costume. Stars at the grand opening included Oprah Winfrey, Luke Skywalker, there's Oprah right there. That looked like a mannequin. Anyway, yeah. Oh, I get what they're doing. It's a stylized photo. There's Harrison Ford. Steven Spielberg is there. There's Spielberg. Hello, Steven. Robert De Niro, who, by the way, Steven's on the board. Robert De Niro, Kiki Palmer, and more. George and his wife sat down with CBS Sunday morning on Sunday morning to talk about the museum and the mission of it. I know you say that this is emphatically not a Star Wars museum, but people will come to this museum because they love your work and love Star Wars. It's 7% of the art in the museum, but it packs a punch. It's beautiful. Like I'm saying, it's not a Star Wars museum. It's a narrative art museum. It's about telling stories. When we finally found a home here in LA, I said, well, we can't not have some Star Wars stuff in it because that's what's driving a certain group of people that love Star Wars into the museum. Absolutely, absolutely. Lucas, Lucas has been working on the museum for 20 years and it opens to the public tomorrow. Yeah, I mean, you guys will remember it made news first and foremost because of the bids from different cities to have it. Chicago lost out. I think San Fran was in the running because that's where Skywalker ranches. Both of those cities lost out and LA got it. Gave Lucas the best deal and I think it's a loss for those other cities. I think it's going to generate millions of dollars in tourism, which is good for Los Angeles, which, by the way, we're in now. Hello, LA. Hello. Yeah, it looks really, really, really cool. I know. It's just beautiful. And the outside of it is so unique and interesting. Like the design of the building looks like narrative art. Absolutely. It's just all of it feels like it's he's such a great storyteller. So it doesn't surprise me that from beginning to end, from the beginning of your experience, driving up to the end of you walking away is going to be a story story you have now to leave with, which I think is really cool. I as much as I'm a big fan of Star Wars, I'm actually excited to see the collection. That's not Star Wars. Not only movies, but his art collection. One of the movie things I saw someone post. He I think it's on loan, but he has Burt Lahr's original costume as the cowardly lion in the Wizard of Oz. Yeah, that's so it's again, not just Star Wars. Next in the dish, poking fun at the headlines in a new book, the brother of Princess Diana makes some bold claims about King Charles. He says the king seemed almost relieved after Diana's death and said the world would quickly forget about Diana. Well, as you as you can imagine, the palace is refuting this. Well, on Saturday Night Live UK, because remember that debuted last year, the show brought back your heads on the shot. There we go. Yeah, do that again or go back in there. SNL UK brought back its popular impersonation of Diana for a new sketch. Watch this. Your Majesty, please say hello to your new AI assistant, the deeply intelligent, autonomous neurokinetic Android, or for short, Diana. Hello, young lady. Nice to meet you. I'm King Charles. Doesn't she remind you of anyone, Your Majesty? Hold on a second. It's that woman from the 90s. Well, as I allegedly said, she was soon forgotten. That will be all, Diana. Return to your charging station. If it's quite all right, I should like to stay. Diana, do as you're told. No, thank you. I shan't be taking orders anymore. Good Lord, we've lost control of the Diana. This was the problem last time. Here in America, you can watch SNL UK on Peacock. They put it up right with the regular original. That was the breakout of the inaugural season. That character was the breakout of the whole season, the Diana character. I haven't watched it yet, and I don't know what's wrong with me. I should watch all of it all the time. You would like it. I would like it. I love all. I love British people, and I love things that are funny. And I love British humor. One of my favorite shows ever is Ab Fab. I love it. Absolutely fabulous. It's still one of my... Oh, I love Ab Fab. Next, bad news for fans of one of the most popular streaming shows of the past summer. This was shocking, y'all. Over the weekend, Prime Video canceled the action comedy series Ride or Die after one season. Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham starred as two long-time friends, and it quickly became the number one show on Prime, especially with middle-aged women. Well, reports are Prime wants to focus on other demos because most... We don't. Because they say that most middle-aged women already have Prime, so they don't need to keep them. Is that actually what they said? Reports are. Oh, let's all just dump it, you guys. All middle-aged women, dump it. Let's go. I'm dumping it right now. I'm a middle-aged gay, and I liked it. I mean, I love it. I just think that's so ridiculous. Do they need more space for shows for, like, young dudes? What are they looking for? I don't know. It surprised me because A, it's good. B, it got great critical buzz. And again, the charts are right there. It did really well. But producers are planning. They're shopping the show around. It's going to land. I don't often think this with all the shows when they go, we're going to look for a new home. Most of the time, the show is just canceled. This, I think, will land someplace else, especially after what you just said. Bye. I think it could go easily on Netflix. It could go on Apple TV. It could go on Tubi. We own Tubi. Hey, bosses, put it on Tubi. Put it on Tubi. Oh, wait. They're busy at that pizza party. They're not. I'm sorry. Do we have any reports on the kind of pizza that's here? Like, what? I don't know. Yeah, if you missed it. Could we send someone to get us pizza and bring it in? No, I don't think we're allowed in. I think security will stop us. I'll just have the audience barge through the door. You know what I mean? And steal pizza. Yeah. Middle-aged women, we get the job done. That's all. Leo, can we put a live camera and go live to the pizza party we're not invited to? Thank you, Leo. Thank you. We now go live to the pizza party we weren't invited to. Yeah. It's already in progress. That's right. We're going to take a break. More hot dish when we return back in a moment. We just found out they're enjoying light appetizers right now at the party. That's right. Light appetizers. Yeah. So the pizza hasn't been served yet. So we'll keep you updated to the pizza party we weren't invited to. Next in the dish, 14 years ago this month, Rihanna released one of the biggest hits of her career. Remember this one? Yeah, if you didn't know, Diamonds topped the charts in 20 countries, becoming Rihanna's 12th number one here in the U.S. And if you would never guess, you would never guess how quickly that song was created. I love stories like this. Music producer Biddy Blanco stopped by Watch What Happens Live last night and shared the story of Sia writing the song. Listen to this. Basically what happened was this was before Uber existed. So Sia has to call a car to pick her up from the studio. They said it's going to take 15 minutes. She said, 15 minutes, throw on another beat. We throw on another beat, okay? In that 15 minutes, she writes a melody. She writes a verse, a pre, a chorus, lays it all down, and still has time to go to the bathroom. And that was Diamonds. That is unbelievable. Then he said the song was originally intended for Eminem before landing with Rihanna. I don't know. I can't see Eminem doing that. Well, it would just be like the music within the song that he has. Oh, got it, got it. That's my guess. I am amazed. Like the late great Dolly. I still can't believe we have to say the late great Dolly. But anyway, the fact that she would just write songs, it was like we would write a note to someone. She was writing music. That's a gift I wish I had. I wish I had. I'm not a writer. I'm an interpreter of other people's words. And I am so grateful for the gifts I have to do that, and the beautiful words that come to me. And for people like Sia, who writes incredible lyrics that can be just so great. And I'm always fascinated with singers. Do you get the words first, or do you get the melody? Like what comes into their minds? It's literally different for everyone. And if you think about it, you listen to music differently than I listen to music, probably. Some people listen to the melody first. Some people listen to the words first. Some people love a song because of the beat or because of the melody. And so I connect to the song because of the words first. And then I will go backwards from there just because of how I sing songs. And you're right, because I listen for the beat first. If it has a good tempo that I like, and then I go back and hear the words. I'm like, oh, it's about gorillas or, you know, whatever the song is. It's my favorite song about gorillas. I don't know. Up next. Is there even a song about gorillas? I don't even think there is a popular song about gorillas. Also, doesn't that just say a lot about technology? Like we have Uber now, right? So she wouldn't have written that song. No. Let's go back to the old days where we needed a car service. Okay. I'm good with Uber though. I'm good with Uber. You're still going to stand with the Uber? Okay. Can I tell you really quick? Please. You know I tell you everything. I need to apologize to the Uber driver that we had on Saturday night because Bjorn's laughing. Colin and I, we call them champagne fights. When we get into little like little, you know how if you're married, you know what I mean? You get in the most ridiculous little tiffs. We got into the most ridiculous tiff and all we did was argue the whole way back home. That Uber driver probably thought we were insane. Like just, and I woke up. My first thought was, you know, feeling horrible, but then thinking to myself that Uber driver, I feel sorry for him because it was like the whole time. Just a bunch of cluckity gaze in the back seat, you know, just like arguing in the back. Anyway, if you drove me on Saturday night, I'm very sorry. Yeah. Up next. I think you're his good story though. That's the best part is that somewhere he's telling people that you will never believe these two guys in the back of my Uber. Up next, a new docu-series has become an obsession among the Jason Show crew. We were texting about it this weekend. It's time for the Jason Show Watch Club. Other shows, he did it again, Aaron. Other shows at book clubs, not ours. The series focuses on a double murder case in Kansas from more than 20 years ago and one couple's mission to find out what really happened. Couple slain in their bedroom. There was no DNA, no fingerprints. But every family member offered the same theory. Mike's ex-wife. He had an ex-wife. The ex-wife. They just assumed, oh, you're the ex-wife. The jury took just 83 minutes to convict. Consecutive life terms, no possibility of parole. When they arrested Dana, everybody believed they got the right person except for us. If my mother is watching, mom, watch this. A Killer Story is what it's called and it focuses on a New York Times reporter who comes to Texas to investigate. No, it's not. No, it's not Texas. It's Kansas to investigate with this couple called the Pen Pal and the Trash Man. You'll see why when you watch it. Aaron, y'all were right. You recommended it. Executive producer Jeff recommended it. Bjorn recommended it. We watched it and it's a three-parter audience. We got to the end of part two and I'm like, no, because part three comes out this week and I know this is a cliche, but just when you think you go, oh, I think such and such happened, then another twist happens. There's a twist at the second episode that that's why I screamed at the TV because I'm like, oh no, I want to go to episode three and it's not out yet. This is obviously a true case. It was on CBS's 48 Hours a couple times. I honestly do not know how this ends up. Do you? No. Did you Google it? No, I don't. I don't like to Google it. I don't either. Because I want to watch it like unfold as it's unfolding. Plus, this is, this reminds me of the, the, I think they're HBO ones, but it reminds me of like the Jinx and the staircase. And the Jinx was so awesome because when we watched it in real time, like it actually saw it happen, like they like solved it in real time while we were watching it. And now I'm like, oh my God, what if we find something out in real time? As it's happening, I'm freaking out. This couple, the couple that's investigating. Oh, they're so great. They are so great. They, they have like files, everybody. And I'm not talking like scribbled notes. They have created a case, like case files and the level of detail they go through to help who's convicted is unbelievable. And, and even if you're not watching, it's two tracks. You can watch if you're a lover of true crime, but also you're watching because the cast of characters, they, it is so good. I love all of them. I'm telling you that that couple is like marriage goals. And I think someone should study how watching true crime brings you closer together as a couple. Like I, I'm totally, I'm not even like, do you know what I'm saying? Yeah. I bet, I bet. I love them so much. I bet those two don't argue in the back of an Uber on Saturday nights. I love that. He said, I grabbed her hand. It was like when they were in high school, I grabbed your hand at this one, whatever day. And he said, and I've never let go of it until up to this day. He's a sweet man. I love you guys so much. I know, but audience seriously. Watch it. Mom, watch it. It's called a killer story on HBO. Jeff wins the new episode Thursday. It dropped the weight. I know the last episode that's on HBO max. We're going to take a break. We'll be right back, back in a moment. In the kitchen. Welcome back friends. Whether it's a Honeycrisp, a Fuji, my favorite, a Granny Smith. Apple season is here. And one apple dessert that everyone will love has a surprising ingredient. Mountain Dew. Here with her Mountain Dew dumplings. Give it up for the dumpling host of Taste Buds and Stephanie Hanson. Everybody. Hello dumpling. So I have made this once before on your show. So I was looking to see when it was. It was 2018. Oh my goodness. I know that was a long time ago. So I've had this before. Yeah. Right. I'm sorry that I don't remember. So many years ago. I don't remember a lifetime ago. I don't remember what we did Thursday. You didn't even have facial hair then. Oh, I did have facial hair back then. No, you looked completely different. Okay. So can I ask this? Origin story. How in the wide world of blank did you come upon using Mountain Dew with this? I didn't make it up. Somebody had it at a potluck. And it was like a thousand years ago. Do you know that scares me? I know. I'm always afraid to open those tubes. I get a little anxious. I want you to do this. I do. I have to have. No, I don't want to do that. Okay. I'll do it. Okay. Here. Where. And then the olden days, they were very dangerous and made a big pot. Where do I start here? Yeah, I don't know. Okay. I'm scared. I don't like this. Okay. Where do I? It's not doing it. Okay. This is riveting television. I know. I just. I have to take my glasses off because I can't see. Yeah, you have to do it. I can't do my fingernails. So first of all, on the way here, I feel like I should tell you. Oh, I don't like that. See, you can't do it. I don't like that. It is pressure sealed. Yeah. On the way here, the apple dumplings might have fallen out in my car. So the finished product has been on the floorboard of your car? Not the floor of the console. So when we taste it, you'll be. You know, it's. She won an Emmy, folks. It takes a village to wake up, make it all. I know. Okay. This is the thing. This is a very easy recipe. It is not dietetic. Okay. We have a cup of sugar. Okay. We have a half a cup of brown sugar. Okay. We have an entire stick of butter. Okay. Now you're talking. Now, can you just stir up that? Absolutely. Stir this all up. Yes. Okay. And you want this in what kind of bowl? What kind of bowl is this? Just a glass one. Just a glass. Okay. I only use glass for television. No, I just mean that. Trick question. Where is that Uber? Yeah. Oh, the champagne fights. I've been in with you in one of those. They're fun. You wake up and you just feel so dumb. Nobody does champagne fights like Colin and me. I'm telling you. No, because you guys are petty. Yes. And small. That's the perfect... You both are. When you're having that fight, absolutely you are. You know I'm right. That's going to be on my gravestone. Petty and small. Yeah. Well, it's like the two of you together. Yeah, I know. Okay. So... So you're going to use... I like to use a Granny Smith in this. Okay. So you're going to just cut it into chunks. Okay. And each apple is going to give you about six chunks. Okay. So that looks perfect, Jason. In my... In the glass round bowl. Yep. Yeah. Okay. So all we're going to do is just roll these bad boys up. Okay. We're going to spray the pan with Pam. Spray this one? Pam, little Pam baking soda. Or spray. Yep, there you go. Okay. And you're just going to lay them in there. Okay. So do you want to roll a couple? And then what you do is you throw the... Here, you roll this one. Okay, but show me first. I don't know what... You just roll. Okay, just roll it up? Yeah. Okay, that's all you do? Yeah, it's just tuck them in there. There we go. Okay, I'll do this one. You literally, you can't do it wrong. Yeah. Well, I'm sure I could. And you can have little kids help you with this. Again, I don't know why I always feel the need to invite the family into my cooking sessions, but I do. You're so nice. I know. Yeah. All right. You're not petty and small like me. No. Okay, we're going to... I never get down. No, ever, ever. It will be mentioned every segment. We're going to take a break. More with Stephanie when we come back. Back in a moment. We'll wrap this up. All-inciting. Host of Taste Buds. Stephanie Hansen is here. Don't forget, all of Stephanie's recipes for all of her segments will always be on stephaniesdish.com. Okay. So we're almost done rolling. We're all done. So just spoon that over. Spin this over this, okay, from the glass bowl. Okay, yeah. Okay, and so what is going to happen here is we are going to pour in the Mountain Dew. Okay. And I know... Just right on top of this? Oh. And what happens is, is you bake this at 375. Okay. And the Mountain Dew acts as a leavener. So it makes the biscuits get puffy. Oh, really? And doubling like, yes. Oh. So we end up with this beauty situation, even though it spilled a little in the car. Yeah, yeah. So they're all, like, toasty and buttery and nestled in there. Can I ask, does the flavor profile of the Mountain Dew, does that, do you taste the dew at all? You know, you know how, like, alcohol burns off and you don't, I mean, you don't get a true taste of the alcohol. It's just, is there a little Mountain Dew-esque flavor? I don't think so. Well, I should just shut my mouth and eat it and try it. I mean, that's like... It's the flavor, because we're just going to hit it now with cinnamon, which we did. Okay. So the flavor is predominantly like cinnamon here. So I just made you a little piece. Yes, you did. And you can tell me if you think you can taste the Mountain Dew. I'll tell you. They're just, this is... While I'm eating, tell folks about the new episode of Taste Buds. Okay, the new episode of Taste Buds, it's coming this weekend. I make one of my favorite recipes that I made this whole season. I make birria, which I learned, it's basically like chuck roast, but it's Mexican style. So you make it with a chili sauce and then you shred it and pull it. And I learned how to do it from my friends at El Sazon. It's amazing. That is real good. I know. That is real good. It's so good. That is so good. But you're like, not sure. I'm not sure because I hate Mountain Dew. Yeah. I can't stand Mountain Dew. Jeff's blood type is Mountain Dew. Yeah. But no, I can't stand it. I can't stand the flavor of it. I can't stand the smell of it. So when I shopped this promo for you on Friday, I'm like, I couldn't, you know, but... I feel it. Again, petty and small, everyone. Anyway, yeah. Oh, I'm so regretting I said that. But I don't taste a dip of dew in there. Yeah, it's just like a sugary sweet flavor. Now, if you put ice cream or whipped cream on this... And it's great to have like for a potluck, kids like it, adults like it. And again, it's not diet food, so let's not pretend it is. And don't use the Mountain Dew Zero to save the calories. Don't bother. Just go for it. Can I ask your expert opinion on something that it's happening here, but all of you watching, there has been a maybe a food show that has come to your area, no matter what it is, and they've redone a restaurant in your town. We are experiencing this right here in the Minneapolis area. Gordon Ramsay is here. Oh boy, is he ever. He's doing, I think, three different restaurants. Yes. What's your overall take when not just Gordon, but when these shows come in? You're looking at it right here. When these shows come in and they redo a restaurant, the reason I'm asking is I have seen a Facebook post from one of these restaurants that's basically like we have basically gone back to what we did before, and they're not really doing a lot of what Gordon said. Your thoughts? A couple things. One is I think any publicity is good publicity. Yeah. So even though he's coming in and maybe critiquing some things, I trust Gordon enough as a human being that he's going to leave you in a better place than he started it. That said, it's still challenging to change your whole menu, to get your staff trained in. I mean, this just happened this weekend, and people are going to this restaurant and wanting to eat these dishes. And Gordon leaves with the crew, and then you still have to execute all that. So I just think we got to be patient and give these folks a little time. Absolutely. People are just enraged that they can't find the dishes. He made, I think, six appetizers, six main dishes, a couple desserts. And people are going there and wanting to eat them, which I do understand, but they're having a hard time executing. And so they've just gone back to what they know for now. So then people feel upset because they're like, wait a second, we bought into this whole concept that he was going to help you, and then he supposedly helped you, and now you're not taking the help. It's just gotten real sticky. And also, another friend of mine, Tony Koo, he's an influencer, and he went into a bakery and had an apple fritter. And it's a great apple fritter. And he was like, I'm so sorry for those of you that love this place that I'm going to ruin it for you. Because 2,000 people are going to go and stand in line for this apple fritter. Because Tony likes it. Yes, and Andrew Zimmern blew up our friend for Sweet Lou's for their pastrami sandwich. It's always a double-edged sword. Now, Taste Buds has not reached that level of excitement yet, but I'm hoping we do. Because we want to shine the light on how hard these folks work. Yeah, especially now. They're family-owned restaurants, yes. And with food costs and everything going up, people expect a lot from the restaurant, and we want to have a good experience. But these are family-owned restaurants. And the profit margin in good times is so incredibly small. It's usually less than 10%. Yeah, and people think, oh, they're rolling in the money. They are not. It's a tough, tough business. The rates of divorce and restaurant closures are about the same thing. That is about true. No, seriously. I'm not even making a... If a restaurant makes it to 10 years, it's considered a wild success and an anomaly. Yeah, which is unbelievable to think of. So your message, to put a point, give these people grace, even with Gordon Ramsay. Give them grace. Gordon Ramsay in particular. Yeah, give them grace. Yeah, I think give them grace. And also, any publicity is good publicity. So you can't blame these restaurants for wanting some publicity. She's delightful, petty, and small. It's Stephanie Hansen, everybody. You can watch Taste Buds on Fox Local. All the recipes, like I said, on stephaniesdish.com. We'll be right back. Back in a moment, everyone. This is legit delish. Yeah, yeah. But it's, I mean... No Mountain Dew at all. Happy birthday to everyone in our birthday club. They get VIP treatment, that sash, a trip to Aaron's house, and more. You can celebrate your birthday with us in studio.

Anyway, so Stephanie, we're going to walk over, and we're going to bring the leftover apple crisp over there. That's right. Yeah, and we'll try to use that as a bribe to get us all in. I'm going to, and I'm going to bring the audience too. They can't say no to these people. I'm just going to bring the whole audience. Yeah. I like it. I think it's a good plan. Oh, look how nice these people look. We're going to bring them to the door of the pizza party and say, let us in, people. Let us in. Yeah. They're hungry. They want pizza, right? I love pizza. That's right. I love pizza too. I wish we had some pizza today. Right now. But we don't. Anyway, tomorrow, the new rules of decorating from sofas to lighting. Designer Heather Fox is here debunking old rules that we have been told. She's going to debunk them. That's tomorrow. But right now, that's going to do it for us. Thanks to this audience. Thanks to you. And if you are watching and you're a kid that's being bullied, go out there and be yourself because nobody can tell you you're doing it wrong. Bye, everybody. We'll see you tomorrow. Off to the pizza party. Come on, Erin.
