Taste Buds with Sal Vulcano and Joe DeRosa is podcast where the two hosts debate one food vs. another, and the vibe and chemistry made for a great, light-hearted time.
Around the 2023 Christmas season, DeRosa and Vulcano canned a batch of episodes to maintain their episode output, and by the end of the year, they reveal that Taste Buds producer, Homeless Pimp, is leaving the show (not a huge deal, but a change nonetheless).
February 5, Taste Buds returned with a new episode for the new year with a new producer (excitement ensued).
However, something seemed different, something seemed off: Sal Vulcano, who we’ll all love, had a rough day at the office, as he rambled on and on without a hint of a punchline, and the usual back-and-forth with DeRosa turned awkward and devoid of laughs.
Hopefully, for the show’s sake, this was a rare occasion of Sal being a sourpuss, and the DeRosa-Vulcano duo channels the comedic chemistry that made the show so enjoyable until this most recent stretch.
