304: Taco Bell’s AI Took Our Order… and It Was Scary Good
1w ago00:51:57Tap to summarizeMike and Jess return to Taco Bell with one mission: order an absurd amount of food and see if the AI drive-thru can survive the experience. What follows includes: • A caramel empanada explosion inside the car • A surprisingly emotional discussion about onions • Mike discovering Jess has been secretly stockpiling Godiva chocolate • An unexpected breakdown of NBA triple-doubles • Taco Bell chicken nuggets somehow stealing the show • Jess becoming weirdly good at talking to AI The Triple Double Crunchwrap sparks one of the couple’s most passionate food debates yet: hot vs. cold toppings, wet vs. dry food, and whether nacho cheese is secretly ruining society. Also somehow discussed: Airplane sandwiches, Dean Blandino, Tiger King memories, and why Mike cries during every episode of Shrinking. A completely reasonable Taco Bell episode.
Transcribe →303: Fake Crab Cake Betrayal and the Fruit Sandwich Disaster
May 600:49:05Tap to summarizeMike and Jess return with one of the most chaotic food weeks in Marriage Bites history. Between business trips, sick kids, a cat surgery, a $176 Carmine’s steak riding New Jersey Transit, and a Panera “salad stuffer” that completely broke their brains, this episode spirals in the best possible way. The two debate whether fruit belongs inside bread, relive Jess’s legendary fast food ordering disasters, and uncover the emotional damage caused by fake crab cakes. Also, somehow, “poppers” become a recurring topic for way longer than expected. It is messy, hilarious, sleep deprived energy from start to finish.
Transcribe →302: Wendy’s Spicy Chicken Sandwich Is Back
Apr 2800:39:30Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Marriage Bites, Mike and Jess take a nostalgia-fueled trip to Wendy’s to review the new-and-improved Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Is it still the late-night legend they remember, or has time (and better chicken sandwiches) changed the game? They also debate dream franchises to own, best mall food court meals of all time, and why old-school video stores still live rent free in their minds. Plus: plane snacks, prom prizes, and a passionate anti-mayo rant. In this episode: Wendy’s spicy sandwich gets a full breakdownFranchise dreams: Jersey Mike’s vs SweetgreenMall food court nostalgia hits hardVHS tapes, Blockbuster memories, and rewinding cultureBest thing they ate all week: Jersey pizza wins again
Transcribe →Ep 301: This Fast Food Chicken Actually Burned Us
Apr 1900:46:22Tap to summarizeMike and Jess are back for episode 301 of Marriage Bites, diving into Panda Express’ Dynamite Sweet & Sour Chicken, the chain’s fiery limited-time collab made with Buldak hot sauce and extra-crunchy puffed-rice batter. They break down whether it lives up to the hype, how it compares to last year’s Hot Orange Chicken, and why this might be the hottest fast food item they’ve tried yet. Along the way, the conversation goes delightfully off the rails with drive-thru disasters, cracker debates, nostalgic chain restaurants, favorite Chinese food orders, and the everyday chaos that makes Marriage Bites so much fun.
Transcribe →300: Mike and Jess Celebrate 300 Episodes
Mar 3100:59:04Tap to summarize7 years later...they are still doing it. Welcome to Basketball Drives, I mean Mike Delivers, oh sorry...what is it even called now? Mike and Jess go to an OG spot and reflect on 300 episodes.
Transcribe →299: Shrimp, Gout, and Almost Episode 300
Mar 1700:51:28Tap to summarizeMike and Jess survive a brutal winter week, test their tolerance for seafood (and gout), and dive into Popeyes’ garlic parmesan butterfly shrimp. The shrimp scores big, the Mardi Gras mustard does not, and somewhere along the way the conversation spirals into movie characters they’d want to be, unpopular food opinions, and a deeply unnecessary Google search about shrimp anatomy. All this while planning the big Episode 300 celebration dinner, which may or may not happen at Outback Steakhouse.
Transcribe →298: A First Time Marriage Bites Try
Feb 2700:43:09Tap to summarizeWe are closing in on 300! Who is excited for the Texas Road House? But first...Mike and Jess try the Curry Croquette from Paris Baguette. Could we see the third ever perfect score from Mike?
Transcribe →297: Did Jess Love The Meats?
Feb 2700:47:43Tap to summarizeJersey Mike's! No not Mike Bisceglia himself, but the fast food joint. Mike and Jess try the Mike's Hot Italian. Is this thing even spicy? What happened on Super Bowl pizza tradition and when is the Texas Road House happening?
Transcribe →296: What Did Burger King Teach Us About Marriage?
Feb 400:49:36Tap to summarizeSnowed in and slightly unhinged, Mike and Jess use a Burger King “Fully Loaded Croissan’wich” as a launching pad for a conversation about memory, taste, marriage, and the strange intimacy of what we eat. What starts as a fast-food breakfast review quickly becomes something deeper: why certain foods unlock childhood, how convenience has reshaped culture, and how couples stay connected through small, ridiculous shared experiments. Along the way they touch on Trader Joe’s trauma, PTA freezer sandwiches, sibling fights over peanut butter, and the wild pre-contactless days of DoorDash. Sometimes a croissant is just a croissant. Sometimes it’s a mirror for your relationship.
Transcribe →295: Is Iced Coffee a Scam?
Jan 2900:46:54Tap to summarizeMarriage Bites 295 is basically a medical symposium disguised as a food podcast. Mike has cracked heels, Jess has plantar fasciitis, and somehow this all leads to Dunkin’ Donuts, protein coffee, and a donut filled with something called “golden fudge.” They debate iced vs hot coffee, whether protein belongs in beverages, and if donuts are secretly weapons. There is also a serious discussion about bidets, potty training, Vegas food algorithms, and why toffee is wildly underrated. Along the way, they rate a surprisingly good protein latte, a dangerous donut, and question most of their life choices. Romance. Health. Snacks. Chaos.
