Beyond the Gates Daily Y.A.P.P for Tuesday, November 25th:

Welcome to the Beyond the Gates Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What Happened on Beyond the Gates

Today must have been double down on the product placement; it got cumbersome with the Cascade dishwasher pods for real. So much so that it almost broke down one of the Cascade commercials and had Andre and Dani discuss dishwashing and how a dishwasher and Cascade could replace Granny's old-time method of getting your hands wet in a sink of hot water and suds and all that elbow grease that our parents used to tell us about and request we put into it.

Next up, in case we hadn’t quite got the message between Dani and Andre, we had a lesson on how to load the dishwasher correctly and wait a minute…aren’t those bowls clean? No matter, Cascade will get a clean bowl, shiny clean too. So Andre shows us how to place the pots and the pans on one level and other items where they belong, and Dani told us she takes any shortcut she can find and reaches into the Cascade bucket and pulls out a pod and holds it up to the camera so we don’t miss it and can identify one in an emergency ourselves.

Andre then places it in the correct partition, for detergent, and closes the cap and shuts the door, everything except showing us what cycle to, but…Am I sure we can figure that part out on our own? LOL
