Dairy-Free Girls
April 19, 2021 06:00 - 33 minutes - 22.9 MBWe’re getting personal this week, Hoes, with a little walk down memory (or mammary) lane. What can we say? These vegan dips just brought us back and brought some surprises. Channel your inner child with us as we carry our breadsticks like fancy cigarettes, recount some of Evie’s favorite family recipes and question what meat (if any) was really in Chef Boyardee. 🛒 In the cart: Vegan Bolognese-Style Pasta Sauce with Tomatoes and Meatless Plant-Based Crumbles Vegan Caramelized Onion Dip ...

Crispy, Crunchy, Crabby
April 05, 2021 06:00 - 34 minutes - 23.5 MBThe stars aligned this week, Hoes. This Cancer and Taurus are going on a journey from Vermont to the elementary lunchroom and bringing TJ’s, Harry Potter, astrology and plenty of surprises along the way. We’ll be dancing like the Champignon girls we are and possibly learning Japanese from Katie’s husband. Just one question remains: Which really is the spiciest zodiac? 🛒In the cart: Organic Toasted Coconut Granola Bark Crispy, Crunchy Champignon Mushrooms Crispy, Crunchy, Spicy Mochi R...
Piece of Cake
March 29, 2021 06:00 - 35 minutes - 24.2 MBNo prep? No problem, because the Hoes are showcasing their thaw talents with Trader Joe’s frozen deserts. From New York style O.G. cheesecake to finger cake confections, this episode is serving layer upon layer of glucose-infused gluttony.

Ho-ing It Out: Sara Pion and Bridget Poetker of Self-Control & Cheese
March 22, 2021 06:00 - 50 minutes - 34.5 MBWe’re going to need you to channel SNL's city correspondent Stefon, Hoes, because this episode’s got everything: Slugging, Enneagrams, our first bi-coastal cheese exchange and the hosts of Self-Control & Cheese, Sara Pion and Bridget Poetker. We introduce these fromage fanatics to some classics, and they introduce us to some new staples all while asking the really important questions. Has anyone created a seasonal cheese almanac? Did we just become best friends? And is Trader Joe hot? Be s...
Spice Girls
March 15, 2021 07:00 - 32 minutes - 22.1 MBThe Hoes spice up their lives with the help of Trader Joe’s seasonings — and a few dozen fries. Change your flavor profile to “it’s complicated” because we’re shaking things up with savory blends that bend space and thyme. Not on the plate but certainly on our minds: Trader Joe’s pet shop potential (Trader Joe Exotic???), Evie’s plan to prank her fiancé, and Katie’s questionable take on seafood. In the cart: Handsome Cut Potato Fries Za'atar Seasoning Blend Cuban Style Citrusy Garlic Groun...
Spread It On Thicc
March 08, 2021 07:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MBHoes, it is a big week. Grab your diaries, because you’re going to want to take note of this. Katie tries Cookie Butter for the first time. How did she go this long without it? We don’t know. How did we so horribly misjudge the Banana Fruit Spread? We don’t know. How did Evie end up sounding like a 911 caller in a true crime documentary? We don’t know. Why does Katie smell like chicken noodle soup? We absolutely do not know. But here we are. 🛒 In the cart: Crepe Wafer Cookies Speculoos ...
Believe It Or Nut
March 01, 2021 07:00 - 35 minutes - 24.4 MBThis episode’s theme is strung together about as well as we’re keeping it “togedder.” So, just go with it when we say we’re trying some nut items this week. We’re also following up on the definition of “yeet,” asking for TJ’s to step it up for Mother’s Day and may be giving “Trader Hoes” a whole new meaning. 🛒 In the cart: Roasted Garlic & Pesto Pizza with Deep Fried Crust Crispy Peanut Butter Filled Milk Chocolate Peanuts Amped-Up Almonds Support the Show.
Squeeze the Sauce
February 22, 2021 07:00 - 25 minutes - 17.4 MBThis week, we’re getting saucy, Hoes. And no, we’re not just talking about Katie’s beer shower. (Not shower beer. Beer shower.) We’re slurping up Trader Joe’s new Thai Noodle bowls, and they vary as much as Evie’s preference for coconuts. We also go over why it “must be hard being a pretty girl in LA,” who is the Mariah Carey of this podcast and why email is so hard. 🛒 In the cart: Peanut Satay Thai Noodles Red Curry Thai Noodles Garlic Sauce Thai Noodles Support the Show.
Katie Bravioli
February 15, 2021 07:00 - 38 minutes - 26.4 MBIf you're looking for the Trader Hoes featured in Refinery29, you've come to the right place. And this week, Hoes, we're getting saucy with some new Trader Joe's products. We're also dissecting the various flavors of compliment sandwiches, the strange anatomy of '90s salads and what the heck meat sprinkles are. 🛒 In the cart: Breaded Fried Ravioli Bolognese Style Tomato & Beef Pasta Sauce Calabrian Chili Tomato Dumpling Soup Support the Show.
Chocolate and Daddy Issues
February 08, 2021 07:00 - 31 minutes - 21.8 MBYou know what, Hoes? We deserve to metaphorically drown ourselves (Augustus Gloop-style) in chocolate this week after the utter disappointment of last week's items. And Trader Joe's did not disappoint. We're dishing up bold new combinations, some horrendous Australian accents, childhood throwbacks and a lot of curiosity about what fathers did to piss off every country so there aren't any Fatherlands. 🛒 In the cart: Dark Chocolate Drizzled Plantain Chips Aussie-Style Chocolate Creme Sand...
Wow And Help
February 01, 2021 07:00 - 32 minutes - 22.1 MBYes, we’ll get into the items we tried this week, Hoes, but first, we have breaking news! Katie found a new app that allows you to get Trader Joe’s items DELIVERED. We’ll wait while you catch your breath. It’s called Dumpling, and they should sponsor us for how much we promoted them in this episode. Anyway, we also tried some Trader Joe’s items. But let’s just say that breaking news was the highlight for us. Well, maybe Katie's Greek accent too. In the cart: Uncured Turkey Bacon Cheese S...
Breath of Death
January 25, 2021 07:00 - 31 minutes - 21.4 MBHoes, we apologize right now if you can smell our breath through this episode. We were not prepared for how pungent these items would be. But if you looooooooove garlic and the resulting breath, does Trader Joe’s have some chips for you! We also spill some insider knowledge thanks to a few of our followers, welcome a new Patron to our inner circle and try not to kill our houseplants with our rank fumes. In the cart: Almond Butter Almonds Everything but the Bagel Seasoned Kettle-Cooked ...
Getting A Little Nutty
January 19, 2021 14:00 - 27 minutes - 18.7 MBHoes, this year we’re getting a new president and giving you full transparency. We are still quarantining and recording from home, and it shows. In addition to discovering the Destiny’s Child of nuts from Trader Joe's, we also find the loudest pacifier with the best comedic timing and realize Evie may need to fight Katie’s toddler for Brian’s hand in marriage. 🛒 In the cart: A Trio of Almonds Caramel Coffee Cashews Cocoa Chile Spiced Pecans Support the Show.
Sh*t For Grains
January 11, 2021 07:00 - 35 minutes - 24.1 MBIf there’s one thing that’s certain in this crazy world we live in, it’s that the Hoes need to do a road trip across the country to see all of these incredible Trader Joe’s locations! Seriously, Arizona, step it up. And on that trip, we may very well bring these three quick breakfast items to sustain us. Well, one in particular is never leaving our sight, if we have any say in it. We also need the Venn diagram of Trader Joe’s fan and true crime fans. We’re guessing it’s a circle. 🛒 In the ...
Hindsight is 2020
January 04, 2021 07:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MBWe made it, Hoes. This year, we’re focusing on the positives, starting with looking back on our favorites from 2020 that we hope to see again in 2021. And in between giving ourselves pats on the back, a heartbreaking story of the loss of a perfectly good bag of jalapeño puffs and dropping air fryer suggestions, we also tease out things coming soon for these Hoes and ponder the invention of a cheese door stopper and the Stud Muffin Diet. Also, please send us photos of your unique Trader J...
Christmas Kooks
December 28, 2020 06:00 - 34 minutes - 23.9 MBWe’ve almost made it, Hoes! We’re in the last week of the weirdest year we’ve ever lived through. And if there’s one thing we’ll take with us into 2021, it’s a newfound appreciation of cookies, especially these TJ’s holiday ones. Well, that and maybe the inspiration for holiday taxidermy, an irrational fear of voodoo cookies and the emotional scars of working at an alt weekly paper. 🛒 In the cart: Baton Lovers Quartet Decked Out Tree Cookies Cookie Mug Hangers Support the Show.
Candy Cane You Handle It?
December 21, 2020 06:00 - 34 minutes - 23.7 MBWe’re back! And one of these Hoes is a whole lot more engaged than the last time we recorded 💍 But back to the TJ's stuff. In preparation for this episode, we’ve been building up our sugar tolerance so we can take these holiday candies in stride. We also reveal our true feelings about mint chocolate chip in a Freudian slip, long for a return to casino bingo nights and question whether birds are real. 🛒 In the cart: English Toffee Bites Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Almonds Candy Cane J...
Sugar Nuts
December 07, 2020 06:00 - 34 minutes - 23.5 MBThe holidays look a bit different this year, Hoes, so we decided to kick off our December episodes with some unusual, festive treats. Also, keep sharing your stupid with us and maybe we’ll do a roundup of our favorites. But definitely don’t share you address with us. Honestly, Katie’s probably already found it. 🛒 In the cart: Over The River And Through The Wood Trek Mix Sweet & Salty Snack Mix Stepping It Up Spicy Snack Bar Mix Support the Show.
It Ain't Easy Being Cheesy
November 30, 2020 06:00 - 34 minutes - 23.6 MBThe time has come! Katie can finally eat soft cheeses again, and these Hoes are taking advantage and taking on all of the hardcore wax standing in the way. But the cheesiest thing about this episode isn’t even the items we tried. Plus, somebody call The New York Times because we have the youngest podcaster ever on this episode, and she’s already got amazing taste. 🛒 In the cart: 4 Year Aged Cheddar Cheese Red Chili Scalloped Crackers Cauliflower Crisp Snacks Creamy Toscano Cheese s...
What's Crackin?
November 23, 2020 06:00 - 30 minutes - 21.1 MBWe’re getting back in the groove, Hoes. Katie has returned and is ready to wrestle some bags of Trader Joe’s crackers. Yes, wrestle. They put up quite a fight. And we put all of the energy into the universe that Katie doesn’t catch her hair on fire again this Thanksgiving. Plus, enjoy some prime storybook animal voices and some intense disdain for raisins. 🛒 In the cart: Trail Mix Crackers Bite-Sized Sharp Cheddar Cheesy Crackers Spicy Chakri Mix Support the Show.
High In Brotein
November 16, 2020 07:00 - 35 minutes - 24.2 MBWhile Katie is caring for her brand new baby girl, Evie calls in a familiar Trader Bro, her boyfriend Brian, to help her sample some grilled proteins. But don’t skip this episode just yet, vegans! We’ve got a pleasantly surprising item in store for you too. While Evie and Brian fight off the meat sweats, they also dream of what it must be like on a cruise, suggest some turkey alternatives for Thanksgiving and get Brian one step closer to fulfilling his dream of living Eddie’s Million Dollar ...
Choc It Up
November 02, 2020 05:00 - 35 minutes - 24.3 MBWarning: Do not give this much chocolate to the Hoes ever again. In this sugar-fueled giggle fest, Katie and Evie sample some new (and not-so-new) chocolate items from Trader Joe’s. They also cover a very niche bucket list item, ponder the existence of zebracorns and possibly offend all of Belgium and really anyone who has an accent. Sorry and you’re welcome. 🛒 In the cart: -Organic Almond Beverage Chocolate Bar -Ruggedly Adventuresome Cowboy Bark -Dark Chocolate Cookie Sticks -Dark ...
Basic Witches
October 26, 2020 05:00 - 33 minutes - 22.8 MBWe don’t know what’s scarier this year, Hoes: the election, Halloween or how loosely some of these items fit into this theme? Whatever you choose, we’re getting in the spirit of the season with some of Trader Joe’s Halloween/general Fall-is treats. You also may be spooked by our most embarrassing costumes over the years, how Evie is considering distributing candy and Katie’s feline trash can. In the cart: Ghosts and Bats Crispy Potato Snacks Halloween Joe-Joe’s Cookies Cinnamon Bun Coo...

Chippin' Away At Us
October 19, 2020 05:00 - 33 minutes - 23.1 MBHoes, we’re getting salty this week. We’ve got some gripes about non-resealable chip bags, and we’re pairing them with some equally salty (and spicy) snacks. Plus, we want you to Share Your Stupid with us. Like Evie’s conclusion that Peruvia was a made-up country because of a Kim Possible episode, we want to hear those moments that make you face palm when you relive them. Send ‘em our way so we can all remember that everyone is a little stupid sometimes. 🛒 In the cart: Peruvian Potato Ch...
Ooooo, That's My Jam
October 12, 2020 06:00 - 30 minutes - 20.7 MBWe’re spreading the love this week, Hoes. We also have a very important question for you: What kind of dodgeball player are you? While you ponder that, we’ll share some addicting jams and spreads with you and one that just didn’t do it for us, honey. And to further our promise of making this an educational podcast, we dissect the differences between jams and jellies and wonder if I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter exists anymore.

Pumpkin Spice And Everything Nice
October 05, 2020 06:00 - 33 minutes - 23.4 MBWhile we round out the pumpkin reviews this year, we need some help, Hoes. How do we cook the Spicy Pumpkin Curry Simmer Sauce? We’ll keep snacking on these pumpkin sweets, but please halp. Also, some announcements: Catch us getting written up in the Phoenix New Times (Not the New York Times...yet), Katie’s husband is basically a doctor now and Evie will never let go of charcuterie boards.

Give 'Em Pumpkin to Talk About
September 28, 2020 06:00 - 36 minutes - 25.2 MBThis is the pumpkin episode Evie has been waiting for. We’ve been patiently prioritizing other pumpkin items while these ones constantly called to us. The time has finally come and, Hoes, they did not disappoint. We also learn that physics don’t apply to pumpkin season, Queer Eye is our quarantine dopamine source and Trader Joe’s is trying to start something between the East and West Coasts. Plus, Katie updates us with her cookie progress. Spoiler: Practice and self-restraint may make perfec...
Get That (Pumpkin) Bread
September 21, 2020 06:00 - 26 minutes - 18.5 MBThis was a week for carbs. And because it’s late September, you know they’re Pumpkin Spice carbs. Also, we need your help, Hoes. Katie is looking for pro baking tips, so if you’ve mastered the art of cookie-making, share the wealth. While you’re at it, let us know if “dense” is the new “thicc.” We think we can make it happen. 🛒 In the cart: Pumpkin Brioche Maple Streusel Bread Pumpkin Blondie Brownies Support the Show.
Gourd Gains
September 14, 2020 06:00 - 26 minutes - 18.2 MBAre you ready, Hoes? ‘Tis the season for pumpkin spice, and we’re feeling festive AF.

We’re also very concerned with Harry Potter’s hydration and physical activity regimen and considering a new podcast, Evie and Katie Complain About Shit. Who knows? Stranger things have happened in 2020... 🛒 In the cart: Pumpkin spice protein smoothie Org...
Choose Your Hoe Adventure: Katie S.
September 07, 2020 06:00 - 36 minutes - 25.2 MBWe’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: This is an educational podcast, Hoes. And this week, we’re getting schooled by some great choices from our Patron Katie S. during our first ever Choose Your Hoe Adventure episode. We handed the reigns over and let Katie S. introduce us to some newish items. We also learn how cassava and tapioca are connected, how great the need for cheese trail mix is and that Hilary Duff really needs to listen to a few more episode of TH. 🛒In the cart: Brazil...
The Good, The Bad and The Cheesy
August 31, 2020 06:00 - 33 minutes - 23.1 MBIn this loosely themed episode, we dive into some cheese and crackers that would make for one wild charcuterie board. We also declare that we’re ready for Fall and bread bowls, pitch the idea of TJ’s adult Lunchables and may need to issue an apology to our nemeses, microwave muffins. In the cart: Shredded Unexpected Cheddar Unexpected Broccoli Cheddar Soup Everything But The Gluten Crackers Nacho Cheese Flavored Corn Tortilla Chips Support the Show.
Send Noods
August 24, 2020 05:00 - 34 minutes - 23.9 MBHoes, we deserved this episode. After last week’s muffin fiasco, we’re feeding our souls with some surprisingly authentic new pastas. Seriously, we cannot shut up about how good this pasta is and how reminiscent it is of actual pasta that we tried in Italy. It’s a problem. We’d also like to draw your attention to the perfect metaphor of emotional Whack-A-Mole during the pandemic and the genius idea of Puppy Pasta Parlors. 🛒 In the cart: Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe Cacio e Pepe Ravioli Chees...
Much Ado About Muffin
August 17, 2020 05:00 - 39 minutes - 27.2 MBWell, Hoes, emotions rise unlike our attempts at muffins this week, as we try our hand at baking up some easy breakfast.

Hatch Me If You Can

D3: The Mighty Dips
July 27, 2020 05:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MBWe’re going to start things out on a bit of a serious note, Hoes. This past week, a petition surfaced that called for Trader Joe’s to remove the racist names (Trader Ming’s, Trader Jose’s, Trader Giotto’s, etc) from their products. Trader Joe’s response was less than satisfactory, to say the least. We decided to proceed with the episode as planned this week, but we’ll keep you posted on any decisions we make moving forward. Thankfully, there were no racist names on any of the items we trie...
Is Pink A Fruit?
July 20, 2020 05:00 - 33 minutes - 22.8 MBOkay, Hoes, we know everything is cake now, but is pink a fruit? We answer this and so many other burning questions this week while sipping on some oh-so-refreshing lemonades and one limeade that fixed our posture.

Ice Scream Inside Your Heart
July 13, 2020 05:00 - 37 minutes - 25.9 MBDespite our discussion of laundry habits and preferred dairy alternatives, this episode’s cool factor is still through the roof thanks to some new and new-to-us Trader Joe’s ice cream. Plus, all Katie wants for her birthday this week is for you to believe that her sweaty thighs really did betray her at a middle school pool party way back when. 🛒In the cart: Matcha Green Tea Ice Cream Non-Dairy Oat Frozen Dessert Strawberry (AKA Non-Dairy Strawberry) Brownie Crisp Coffee Ice Cream Sandw...
Hoe Lives, Hoe Dies, Hoe Tells Your Story
July 06, 2020 05:00 - 38 minutes - 26.3 MBIn honor of the country once again becoming obsessed with Hamilton, we’re doing our own little “Cabinet Battle” of sorts as we put two Trader Joe’s items up against their OG counterparts. But unlike the Tony’s golden child, this production includes botched lyrics, a new movie pitch for Pixar, some bonsai tree discoveries, and a call to cancel bras once and for all. Just you wait, just you wait. In the cart: Pringles Trader Joe’s Sea Salted Saddle Potato Crisps Justin’s Mini Dark Chocola...
Sea Life for Gummies
June 29, 2020 05:00 - 40 minutes - 27.8 MBIt's been a long time coming, Hoes, but the moment has finally arrived. We officially taste the wonder that is Trader Joe’s Scandinavian Swimmers. And to quench Katie’s renewed thirst for knowledge, we share the definition of a Karen, the difference between a marlin and a swordfish, and the fact that no water is required to enjoy the Swimmers. In the cart: Cauliflower Jalapeno Dip Scandinavian Swimmers Super Sour Scandinavian Swimmers Support the Show.
Hoe and Tell
June 22, 2020 05:00 - 42 minutes - 29.3 MBWith COVID-19 sweeping the state, we had to get a little creative this week. Enter Hoe and Tell. We rounded up Trader Joe’s items old and new from our kitchens and shared our unsynchronized feastinis, our love of women raising up other women, and our gratitude for not having to smell each other. In the cart (kind of): Butter Chicken Palak Paneer Naan Sparkling Watermelon Juice Breaded Chicken Tenderloin Breasts Greek Style Feta Dressing Honey Aleppo Sauce Garlic and Onion Pista...
