Good morrow, losers old and new. This is a little fireside chat, if you will. But instead of fire (like the literal kind … like FDR during the Great Depression core), we have fire roasted tomato soup (what they fed people during the Great Depression).

Lester: Yes, Your Honor. Reese: We’re ready, Your Honor. Lester: Who’s ‘we?’ You’re alone. Reese: That’s how you speak in court, idiot. Lester: […]

Last semester, we wrote a column about soup. Some found it funny, others found it cringey and some of you downright despised it. We felt all three. And so of course, we’re going to do it again. Now for those of you who are new, here’s the spiel: this is a column about good soup. […]
