It's Perlick week here at the Bark (and RHI Solutions), so we thought we'd give you an extra special treat for #ThrowbackThursday. It's two episodes of The Bark, for one low price!

As you know, here at The Bark sidetracks we sidetrack from our regular programing to occasionally bring you a couple of side series' titled 'RHI on the Industry,' and 'RHI Calm.' Today you'll get one of each, both featuring the Perlick Corporation.

In the first episode, originally published June 19th, 2018, Laura Creasy and Danny Sizemore drop by the studio to discuss the Tobin Ellis Cocktail Station built by Perlick.

And the second half of the double header is an episode of our Mock-Wellness series 'RHI Calm,' that finds Corrinne Walenda of the Perlick Corporation for higher Calmness discussing the mood altering benefits of Perlick's new line of mobile bars.

Thanks as always to our house band Appalatin. They can be found online here

Only a few short decades ago, the world was on the cusp of a scientific revolution. We were all enjoying better Living through Chemistry, and in many cases; engineering and physics too! Nowhere as this more apparent than in the kitchen, where scientific breakthroughs were giving the world a brand new idea of what a meal could be, and how it could be prepared. Enter what would go on to become simultaneously the most prevalent and despised kitchen appliance of all time. The Microwave Oven.

But what do you really know about this ubiquitous box? Join the Bark as we explore the science, the history, and the future of Microwave Cooking.

Welcome to a 'very special' episode of The Bark. No we're not trying to warn you about drugs, or strangers (actually we kind of like both of those things), instead we're just taking a break from our normal programing to bring you a different type of show. Instead of telling you about trends and innovations within food service, we thought we'd take some time to listen to what you had to say. We wanted to know how folks from a few different industries were adapting to the changes brought on by Covid-19. And not just how it's effecting their working lives, but how it's effecting them as people. Join us as we listen to a few 'Letters From the Earth.

And make sure to check out amazing guests online....and in real life, once it's safe to do so!

First up, we dive into the wild world of oil filtration and reclamation; a underserved topic in an industry enamored with frying. You love hot wings, chicken, tempura, and deep fried twinkies...but what do you do with all of that left over oil (pro tip: There's A LOT of it). Let's let Zack Palazzo of Frontline International walk us though the process.
