Episode #86: Deep River Salt & Vinegar

Louis invited his cousins Iris Grey and Zuri, plus his little sister Cecilia, for a taste test of Tostito's Hint of Lime tortilla chips! The verdict? Everyone loved them--except Cecilia, who gave them a yellow on our color rating scale. We had a blast chatting about the chips before heading back inside for a family pizza party.

Iris Grey, Louis' cousin and best friend, joins us for an unexpected, spicy chicken chip. Louis had one big crunch, then bolted for a glass of water. He came back to finish the show, but he wasn't too happy with this one. We still had a great time with Iris in the studio. As always, thank you for listening! Eat a bag of chips!

After 617 days, Championchip is officially BACK! So much has happened since our last episode! We have welcomed a new Barrett baby, Arthur, to the world. Brodie is a big, bad football playing middle schooler with a deep voice. Louis is excelling in Kindergarten. Cecilia is 4 and thriving as the Queen of the playground. In this revival episode, Brodie passes his hosting torch to Louis. We've simplified the show a bit, and we're thrilled to be recording it again. Please tune in again next week as we plan to bring in guests like the old days! Thank you for listening! Eat a bag of chips!

Thanks for the bag, Zach! As usual, our conversation went a lot of non-chip-related places. We rounded out the last 5 minutes with some discussion of these kettle cooked classics. Not the most memorable S&V we've had, but not the worst either. We enjoyed our time in the studio after a long day and we're happy that we always have this show to look forward to. Thanks for listening, Chip Champions!

Wowzers! We're back with an AMAZING chip (no matter what Mama Barrett has to say about it). It's not flavorless...it's very good. Something has gone horribly wrong with Mama Barrett's taste buds and we're truly concerned for her well-being. Do NOT let her intro discourage you from picking these up at your local grocery. Thank you all for listening! Eat a bag of chips!

Despite us calling this season 2 episode 3 no less than 5 times during this episode, it's season 2 episode 4! These Trader Joe's pizza-flavored chips were amazing, contrary to the opinion of Mama Barrett! Brodie described his trip to DC with Zach and we enjoyed the chips at the end. Thank you for listening! Eat a bag of chips!

Happy Easter! We hope you all had some fun times with friends and family this past weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed Herr's Ranch Habanero chips along with a few chocolate bunnies. While writing this, I''m remembering that we may not have actually given these chips a 0-10 rating during the episode. But after a brief conference with Brodie, we've decided these are a solid 7.5. Thank you for listening! Eat a bag of chips!

We're cruising along here in Season 2 with another bag of Keogh's thanks to Jenn Jenn. They tasted more like barbeque and beer than Irish whiskey, but Brodie seemed to be a fan. We talked about Brodie's new found love for the drums and we'll have to share some of what he has learned soon! Have a great week, Chip Champions!

We're back, baby! It's been nearly 3 months since we posted an episode. Thanks for hanging in there for us! After Christmas, Brodie celebrated his 11th birthday and life has been chock full of soccer, theater, school projects, family events, drum lessons, and more. We're reinvigorated with our SECOND SEASON of the show. We've simplified things to keep it fun, light, and exciting and we hope you enjoy it! In this episode, we tried some AMAZING sweet creole onion chips donated by one of Championchip's biggest fans. Thank you, Gigi! We're so happy to be back and we're looking forward to next week's chip! Thanks for listening. Eat a bag of chips!

Merry Christmas, Chip Champions! We're back for big episode #80 and we have a bunch of guests! We had family and friends over for our Christmas Eve brunch and the mics were on! We're happy that we were able to finally drop another episode!Listen to the end of this podcast for a special announcement. We love you, Chip Champions! We'll be back better than ever next year!
