Holy Cross Show with David Wilkerson, Episode 6 - November 30, 2006
College students do a lot of learning, but they can teach as well. In this podcast, student Neumann Jones tells us all he knows about the art of napping. (And he knows a lot!) We also get a glimpse into dorm life and Chef Dan and Father Thomas are back with the Ramen recipe and “nota bene.”
4 packs of uncooked Ramen
1 16 oz bag of dark chocolate chips
14 drops of peppermint extract
2 drops of spearmint extract
2 drops of wintergreen extract (The extract amounts can vary.)
24 lollipop sticks or popsicle sticks
Optional: ½ tsp butter
Crush dry uncooked ramen noodles into a bowl to about the consistency of bulky oatmeal or rice krispies. DO NOT crush finer or the recipe doesn’t set. Set aside.
Lay out wax paper. In a saucepan or double boiler, melt chocolate chips until they become smooth and creamy. If desired add butter. (Chef Dan skips the butter.) Slowly add mint extracts to the chocolate. Stir for one minute.
Quickly pour over your crushed Ramen and stir vigorously until completely covered. Immediately spoon mixture in tablespoons onto wax paper into round cookie shapes. Mixture will flatten and spread considerably, so leave lots of space in between.
Place a stick into each cookie before it hardens. Let cook completely (for about an hour). Peel and eat! You can individually wrap these and freeze for use later. They last a LONG time in the freezer. Well not that long.

Holy Cross Show with David Wilkerson, Episode 5 - November 6, 2006
In each new podcast new secrets are uncovered and new frontiers are explored. This week, the Ramen recipe takes a path through uncharted territory: dessert! Listen for Chef Dan’s Ramen treat with ingredients like chocolate chips, peppermint extract and spearmint.
Other guests include HCC Professor Mike Griffin who discusses his philosophy class (and how much he loves the Detroit Tigers!), student Randy Ebright who lets us know some details about the College’s annual trip to Peru and of course, no podcast would be complete without Father Thomas and nota bene.
There is no Ramen recipe to report on from last week, because Chef Dan knew everyone would be home eating their parents’ cooking over fall break.

Holy Cross Show with David Wilkerson, Episode 4 - October 13, 2006
What could be more exciting than cheerleaders? David interviews two members of the Saints squad in this edition of the Holy Cross Show with David Wilkerson. He also gives you a rare glimpse into college life as he records his roommate performing a stunt for the audience to enjoy. Don’t cry real tears though. There is no Ramen Recipe! Chef Dan said it wouldn’t be necessary since all the students will be home eating at their parents’ house for fall break. Here is last week’s recipe to ease the pain:
Ramen Noodle Recipe #2
1 package Chicken Ramen Noodles (not crushed)
2 Small eggs, beaten
2 oz Cheddar cheese cut into small cubes
2 oz Chopped bacon
2 Tbsp Chopped tomato
2 Tbsp Chopped green onions
Boil Ramen Noodles via normal methods. Cook bacon to desired crispness. Drain all water from the noodles. Add eggs, bacon, cheese, tomato and onions. Place on medium heat and stir well. Cook for a few minutes (until eggs are done). Alternatively, cook the onions with bacon to soften them.
