I am shook -no all clad in the dishwasher! I should’ve realized 😂

Five minutes before you even get near the topic, then a discussion about testing glasses, without any conclusion. By that point, I gave up. GET ON WITH IT, would be my advice.

It would e so much more effective to talk about kitchen stuff if you guys would do this on video or at least some pictures
I am constantly trying to visualize what you guys are talking about but I can’t, so it’s not enjoyable to listen to this
