1.5 oz chilled hibiscus tea (we used Tazo Passion)
1.5 oz charred pineapple purée
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake until slightly frothy and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with pineapple. (We also used some Coconut Lime finishing salt from Salinity Salts.)
For the charred pineapple purée: Grill fresh pineapple slices (stove top grilling, barbecue grill or even a George Forman will work) until part of the pineapple is charred and the juices are bubbling. Let cool. Combine equal parts grilled pineapple and pineapple juice in a blender with juice of half a lime and blend on high until smooth.
What do Billy Ray Cyrus, Joan Rivers, and Britney Spears have in common? If you said a restraining order on us, you’re not wrong, but, also, encounters with ghosts! This episode is all about celebrity ghosts encounters, so we’re looking into Billy Ray Cyrus’s best phantom friend, Joan Rivers’s adventures in ghostbusting, and the haunted house that may have tormented both Britney Spears AND Brittany Murphy. Plus, we kind of sort of invent a drink last second on the air!

Slice the cabbage in half, and hollow out some of the inner leaves and stem until you have a hole about the size of a golf ball. Pour a shot of warm Jaegermeister into the hollow, drink, and repeat until the pain goes away. If using the mayonnaise, dollop a tablespoon into the hollow before pouring the shot.
It’s April Fool’s Day, and the gloves are off! Nick is coming in hot with a celebrated trickster spirit from Wisconsin, Cait preys on Nick’s fears of duende with tales of the Saci, and they both work to screw with each other where they can, as is the custom of the holiday. Cait brings in a traditional Brazilian drink fit for an evil dwarf (eventually), and we take a swing at fictional horror story podcasts (YOU know we love you!).
