Looking for the perfect holiday gift? How about hosts Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van telling you their memories of 1984’s Gremlins? Make sure you don’t get the podcast wet, because you’re probably listening on an electronic device and that’s really bad for it. Also don’t drink the beverages they made up and drive. No really, especially if you’re a teenager:
Also don’t eat this cereal after midnight. Or before midnight. Because it was discontinued decades ago:
They also create two tribute drinks based on the Joe Dante classic. Here’s how to make them:
THE GIZMO
- Put white frosting on the rim of a glass and cover with crushed mint candy canes
- Blend one ounce Creme de Menthe with two scoops of chocolate ice cream and one cup milk
- Pour into glass
(Review from producer’s wife : Nice.)
THE BLENDED GREMLIN
- Put green frosting on the rim of a glass and cover with crushed mint candy canes
- Blend one ounce Midori melon liqueur with two scoops of mint chocolate chip ice cream and one cup milk
- Pour into glass
- Optional: Microwave a kiwi fruit until it explodes. Use as garnish.
(Review from producer’s wife : Bleh!)
If you make The Gizmo or The Blended Gremlin, or come up with one of your own, please send a picture to sneakyd@sneakydragon.com by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.
