Episode 218: Fictional Prepackaged Food Spokesperson (with Moxie LaBouche)

This week we’re looking at some of the most beloved – or controversial – fictional prepackaged food spokesperson and we have a great guest joining us. Michael and Richard are going up against Moxie LaBouche of the “Your Brain on Facts” podcast (and book), who, not shockingly, has a brain full of facts about food mascots.
