This episode will be told in layers. The tasty summer treat I’m talking about has three ingredients, and while they’re all delicious on their own, together they are incredible. And this episode will be set up similarly, with different stories smushed together into one show.
This episode has just a little mature subject matter in the first section that refers to the birds and the bees, just a heads up.
I’m your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind S’mores.
