Do you know that hulking refrigerator in your kitchen emits CO2 thanks to the electricity it uses each year? It's a comparatively small amount, in truth, but enough that some people have foresworn their fridge and adopted a life without one. See how they do it in this classic episode.
AI Summary
Josh and Chuck dive deep into the world of living without a refrigerator as part of an eco-conscious lifestyle, exploring why some people are willing to ditch this modern convenience and what strategies they use to keep food fresh instead. Along the way, they get hilariously sidetracked discussing everything from proper butter temperature to cilantro storage tips, the shocking statistics on global food waste, and even some truly bizarre green living experiments like eating weeds from your yard and giving up toilet paper. It's equal parts environmental education and entertaining tangents about avocados, onions that make you cry, and one particularly gross London sewer discovery involving wet wipes.

"It's a joke now, literally on Anchorman. In the original Anchorman, when they finish all of their McDonald's, they just throw all their stuff like in the park. — Referenced as an example of how littering was depicted in older media as normal behavior."
— Chuck
"Remember that one episode of Breaking Bad? The one where Pinkman basically gets kidnapped by those meth addicts who robbed the storeable ATM machine? — Referenced in response to listener Andy's email about meth labs, discussing a scene involving kidnapping and robbery."
— Josh
"I think there was a farmer who was doing was using cow poop or something. Yeah, I think that dirty jobs episode did something like that. — Referenced as a show that explored trapping methane from livestock for energy purposes."
— Chuck
"Mad Men had one of those too. They had like a family picnic and after where they gathered up their stuff and just like picked up the mic and threw all the trash out. — Used as another example of how casual littering was portrayed in entertainment."
