Episode 38: Hotels
September 24, 2019 06:00 - 36 minutes - 29 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 038: Hotels It's another episode about life, this time about the hotel room experience! Lindsey fails a pop quiz. Lisa shares probably too much about her hotel room habits. And the ladies wish that hotels would be a bit more like Taco Bell. We copyrighted the idea, y'all. Don't even try to take it. Results from the pizza toppings are in. Listener shoutout to @colebehrends on insta for some AMAZING artwork. And Lindsey refuses to share the names of the people who she...
Episode 37: Pizza Toppings
September 17, 2019 06:00 - 37 minutes - 29.9 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 037: Pizza Toppings Lindsey and Lisa are divided on yet ANOTHER vegetable, one of them rejects unusual pizza toppings outright, and we explore the Jeremy Renner of pizza toppings. There's a fair amount of conjecture on dominating and assertive flavor profiles and personalities of the hosts. Also, is ketchup spicy? The poll results are in for Men's Haircuts! Listener shoutouts to @dantesbelmont, @jasonarreola, and all the members of the anti-quiff vocabulary society. S...

September 10, 2019 10:00 - 39 minutes - 31.8 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 036: Men's Haircuts Lindsey and Lisa have eyes to see and opinions to share about men's haircuts. Lisa calls out men who are too soft to grow a mullet and Lindsey gets very serious about her gold choice, including the pronounciation. The recap features our most on-brand selves EVER in terms of what we rewatch and some "positive" internet interactions. Listener shoutouts to @lemondahlias, @ptgpete, @mattnisbet and @whitneykuhn We'd love for you to join the conversatio...
Episode 35: Movie Sequels
September 03, 2019 06:00 - 34 minutes - 27.6 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 035: Movie Sequels Sequels can be risky business. Sometimes a sequel builds on what has come before. And sometimes sequels ruin franchises and lives. Lisa rants about cliches and Lindsey dares to critique one of Lisa's very favorite movies. Don't worry, they are still friends. And votes for State Fair food are in and listener shout out to @soraemmeline and @ecolbs18 from Twitter! We'd love for you to join the conversation, too! Twitter: https://twitter.com/garbageg...
Episode 34: State Fair Food
August 27, 2019 10:00 - 37 minutes - 29.4 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 034: State Fair Food Come one, come all to the state fair! Unless you're like Lindsey and hate that sort of thing. There's a lengthy discussion on the cons of puking in a port-o-potty, the weirdness that attracts Lisa to the state fair, and all the glorious butter sculptures. Poll results from School Supplies are in! Listener shout-outs to @thestyleriley and @theallbros We'd love for you to join the conversation, too! Twitter: https://twitter.com/garbagegoldpod Inst...
Episode 33: School Supplies
August 20, 2019 10:00 - 37 minutes - 29.8 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 033: School Supplies Remember when we had books, pencils, and an irrational fear of lead poisoning? It's school supplies time, friends! Poll results from Songs of Summer 2019 are in and Lisa and Lindsey do the recap TOGETHER. IN PERSON. It's surprisingly awkward!

Episode 32: Songs of Summer 2019
August 13, 2019 10:00 - 37 minutes - 29.7 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 031: Songs of Summer 2019 We agree on our love for Florence, her machine, and her general aesthetic. Lisa failed to do any dill pickle research, just like our listeners. Lindsey's anxiety flares because it's a music episode. Both of us are way too old to know how to pronounce rappers names anymore. Poll results from Chips are tallied and ready to share! Listener shout-outs to @remdickman @mfeyen @emmalinetaylor @dicesarah and @farmamerica! We'd love for you to join ...
Episode 31: Chips
August 06, 2019 10:00 - 37 minutes - 29.8 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 031: Chips Things start of hot and get spicier from there. The ladies decide they might need a referee on staff, strongly encourage everyone to stop buying food out of trunks and garages, and agree that potato chips are magical. Lindsey's garbage kills her mouth on the inside. Lisa refuses to add whimsy to the world. Listener comments from @dantes_belmont, @jakeperusich and @SStapleton79.

Episode 30: Yard Games
July 30, 2019 10:00 - 38 minutes - 29.6 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 030: Yard Games Episode 30 is here and the ladies are talking about Yard Games! With their shared indifference about the great outdoors and athletic activity, they are obviously Yard Game experts! Lindsey gets picky about pronunciation. Lisa teaches Lindsey a new phrase and goes after college students. And both contemplate a life of yard game crime. Also, the poll results for Breakfast foods are in and it is the closest poll results yet. Listener comments from @lemo...
Episode 29: Breakfast Foods
July 23, 2019 10:00 - 39 minutes - 32.8 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 029: Breakfast Foods Episode 29 is here and it is all about one of the best sub genres of food: Breakfast foods. Lisa attempts to debunk the belief that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Lindsey questions the research and then goes international for one of her picks. And in a shocking turn of events, Lisa goes after our childhoods in this episode. And, out of love for you listeners, this might not be the episode to listen to while you are eating. The ...
Episode 28: Summer Vacations
July 16, 2019 10:00 - 32 minutes - 26.7 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 028: Summer Vacations Lindsey and Lisa have some very different feelings about air travel. Wombs are mentioned more than once.

The choices also bring up a very serious debate: what is the difference between a fashion and a trend? Is there a difference? Plus, the poll results from the Summer Themed Movies and we discuss an enlightening yet dis...
Episode 23: Summer Themed Movies
June 11, 2019 10:00 - 35 minutes - 27.8 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 023: Summer Themed Movies Summer movies are some of the most popular, nostalgic, and quintessential coming-of-age flicks out there and we have lots of feelings about them (per usual). There's some residual bitterness from a previous loss. Lindsey brings some cringey summer movie quotes and what she wasn't allowed to watch as a kid. Lisa slips in some murder talk because she just can't help herself and more of her childhood crushes. Poll results from Weddings and liste...
Episode 22: Weddings
June 04, 2019 10:00 - 36 minutes - 30.1 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 022: Weddings Lindsey and Lisa talk about all things matrimony. We hear how good Lindsey is at listing things, Lisa shares the song that gets her on the dance floor and a new offshoot of the Garbage and Gold empire is discussed.

Episode 21: Camping
May 28, 2019 11:00 - 40 minutes - 32.7 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 021: Camping. As it turns out, Lindsey and Lisa are more the indoorsy type and have a lot to agree on this week when it comes to their dislike of being outdoors. They do their best to find the gold in camping, though! Lisa's research yields some questionable camping etiquette. Lindsey shares some international bathroom horror stories. The girls deliberate the most delicious way to eat a marshmallow. One of us is a lightning bug murderer. The results from our Disney V...
Episode 20: Disney Villains
May 21, 2019 10:00 - 42 minutes - 35 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 020: Disney Villains Turns out the girls love a good villain and Disney has plenty from which to choose! Lindsey and Lisa bond over (more) animated crushes, disagree on what makes a villain garbage, and drop some historical knowledge.

The results are in from our Board Game episode results and, as always, we have some dope...
Episode 19: Childhood Family Board Games
May 14, 2019 10:00 - 40 minutes - 32 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 019: Childhood Family Board Games Lindsey brings some hot takes about gas release and creepy uncles. Lisa is positive her garbage only ruins lives and friendships. We discuss our growing podcast empire of staff with the addition of a research assistant.

There's plenty of disagreement on the value of trap music, grillz, and Taylor Swift. Solid listener comments this week and the poll results from our last episode! Let's go!

Episode 15: Easter
April 16, 2019 10:00 - 40 minutes - 31.6 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 015: Easter Lindsey and Lisa focus in on Easter: the good, the bad and the creepy.

After Lindsey asks a serious but rhetorical question, we dive into straight up deliberation. Lindsey and Lisa have a lot of feelings about our own garbage picks, are surprised by a random similarity in our gold picks and ponder the abundance of catchphrases that every TGIF show used. As always, we share our favorite listener comments and we've ...
Episode 12: New Jobs
March 26, 2019 08:00 - 36 minutes - 29 MBGarbage and Gold Episode 12: New Jobs We always knew Lindsey and Lisa are very different people and this episode is full of examples of why. They discuss how everyone actually spends their downtime, when to start going to lunch with coworkers, why you should not wear a Star Wars t-shirt on your first day and so much more! As always, we share our favorite listener comments and the poll results from the Road Trips episode and they are exactly what you think they will be! Let's go! We'd love for...

Lisa's research gives Lindsey some weirds. Lindsey has a GOLD idea for her very own As Seen on TV Product and Lisa admits she is patient zero for "fake it til ya make it".
