JA: Hello, I’m Jad Abumrad
RK: I’m Robert Krulwich. We’re from Radiolab.
JA: So Robert, say it’s been a long a week, you get home Friday night, and you are starving. What do you do?
RK: Well, I could go out for a relaxing dinner …
JA: Yeah, maybe start with a small appetizer…
RK: Cheap bottle of wine just to unwind…
JA: Some cheesecake…
RK: I love cheesecake.
JA: Yeah, exactly.
RK: Well, this is getting kind of pricey.
JA: Yeah, before you know it you’ve spent $40…
RK: Maybe $50.00. We’ve got a really bold idea for you. This weekend, instead of going out…
JA: Stay in!
RK: And as for what to eat…
JA: One little word for you.
[shaking sound]
RK: It cost 99 cents…
JA: Comes in its own convenient cup...
JA: RAMEN!!!!
RK: RAMEN!!!!!
[slurping sounds]
JA: Mmmmm, this is so good.
RK: Very good.
JA: You can’t beat it.
RK: It’s all over my shirt.
JA: And then send the money you would have spent on dinner
RK: to us!
JA: 40 bucks, 50 bucks…
RK: Send a dinner’s worth our way!
JA: Mmm, exactly. Honor us with Ramen!
