The Worst of the Best Podcast

Ryan and his brother Jason take a lighter, more delicious turn on The Worst of the Best Podcast with ten unique ice cream flavors from around the world that you won’t find at your average Dairy Queen.

Listeners from various countries shared the local specialties: durian ice cream from Singapore, olive oil and balsamic vinegar gelato from Italy, lavender from France, black sesame and wasabi from Japan, red bean from China, spaghetti ice cream from Germany, corn ice cream from Mexico, and Guinness ice cream from Ireland.

Ryan and Jason discuss each one, share personal reactions, and debate which flavor they’d be most likely to politely decline.  Both admit they’d still try almost everything once.

A fun, global, and surprisingly appetizing episode.
