Kaci McCleary, Cory Christensen and Tae Kim are excited to experience Iowa State Fair food, which is arguably responsible for a large percentage of the people needing bypass surgery in Iowa every year. Enjoy your nacho balls, bacon and brisket explosion, and fried food-that-used-to-be-good-for-you-until-they-fried-it on a stick. We also talk about The Atlantic's article about what babies undergrads are about touchy subjects, which just annoys Kaci, who thinks this is a media-manufactured trend.
