the lost eps probably cooked too hard; riskyornot fans like myself will just have to imagine them using our mind palaces
I know I have not posted about risky or not episodes in a while, but we have been steadily putting them out. Today we met to record a bunch more, but forgot to hit the record button. We will meet next week and hopefully get caught up and even get a little bit ahead.

Have you done a #RiskyOrNot episode about eating your hat yet? @benchapmanncsu.bsky.social @bugcounter.bsky.social
to safely dispose of these hats, eat them. natural fibers — such as cotton, wool, silk, and linen — breakdown in the digestive track. synthetics do not. thus, if you eat your hat, the synthetics will pass through the other side. smush through the poop to find the synthetic fibers and recycle them.

It's fixed. And I found another future episode with the same issue. If you ever want to listen and the link is missing you can always find it at traffic.libsyn.com/riskyornot/R... where x = the episode number.

Has there been a #RiskyOrNot episode yet on the Steve Bartman baseball pasta sauce? @benchapmanncsu.bsky.social @bugcounter.bsky.social
![Destruction of the Bartman ball
The loose ball was snatched up by a Chicago lawyer and sold at an auction in December 2003. Grant DePorter purchased it for $113,824.16 on behalf of Harry Caray's Restaurant Group. On February 26, 2004, it was publicly detonated by special effects expert Michael Lantieri.[18][19]
In 2005, the remains of the ball were used by the restaurant in a pasta sauce. While no part of the ball itself was in the sauce, the ball was boiled and the steam captured, distilled, and added to the final concoction.[20]
Today, the remains of the ball are on display at the Chicago Sports Museum, while further remains are amid various artifacts at the restaurant itself.[21]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:oylrtdlzc2ialyjcakcxd265/bafkreidk6y3jlewtvcqppyh54bzsh44jaf5wahru7p64gfcdbjgogivbja@jpeg)
