CC&P 32: Cone-gratulations! It's An Ice Cream Episode! Artwork

Curried Chips & Poutine

Separated by the Atlantic ocean, two friends spice up their social distance-mandated calls by discussing life’s greatest issues, like "would you rather wrestle a bear or an alligator?", "would you rather taste things through your elbows or your ears?" and other pressing questions. However, the biggest the question of all is, will their banter make it across the pond? Have a listen to find out, gain greater perspective with two more humans you didn’t know you shared this planet with, and maybe even challenge them to answer your questions!

After that intro to summer, ice cream is of course the next logical step into maximum summertime gladness! To be fair, it's not just a treat to be enjoyed when it's hot out, it's a way of life! ... Or so you would think, the way we enjoy and talk about it! No time for brain freeze or numb tongues, only time....... for Ice Cream.

SAREENA:
Hello, our favourite fried potatoes! I’m Sareena-

MELISSA:
-and I’m Melissa!

SAREENA:
-and together we’re Curried Chips & Poutine! We’re two friends separated by the Atlantic Ocean, answering the questions no one asked!

BOTH:
Enjoy!

SAREENA:
Hello our favourite fried potatoes! How are you all doing in the summer heat?

MELISSA:
Have you busted out your favourite summer clothes or are you lounging in the shade?

SAREENA:
For me the best way to keep cool is to arm yourself with the ultimate summer treat!

MELISSA:
Watermelon?

SAREENA:
Crisp and cool but not the frozen delight I’m thinking about!

MELISSA:
Oh, well knowing us, there’s only the one! It must be ice creaaaam!

SAREENA:
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! It only makes sense if we’re following the theme of summer! Do you have a favourite ice cream Melissa?

MELISSA:
Time for the most delicious of self-care sign-offs! Ice cream, as we’ve discussed, is a treat that is enjoyed the world over, and just like you guys - it comes in every flavour and form out there!

SAREENA:
If you don’t like ice cream, if that’s even possible! That’s okay - maybe you just haven’t found the right flavour yet, maybe you only like ice lollies, or maybe it’s just not your thing at all and you’d rather eat pizza! And that’s totally fine by me.

MELISSA:
If we aren’t being heavy-handed enough with the metaphor, this can of course be applied to your identity, gender and sexuality as well! Finding yourself is a journey, and it’s never too late to find out who you are, who you love (or don’t love!), whatever the case may be!

SAREENA:
You’re all valid out there, and we love you as much as we love ice cream! And loving yourself is the absolute cherry on top of the sundae of your life - so make it a big, beautiful one!

[Outro music playing throughout.]
