The podcast if you know about it, you know about it. If you don't, look it up and then prepare to eat a sandwich.

  • Sean Jordan: playing Sports Drink in August, performing at the Aladdin Theater September 26th for the AFE 10-year anniversary show, still no grill, but a leather apron.
  • David Gborie: getting married this summer, laying low, wearing orange shoes and matching hat, new to driving and already road raging
  • Noah Galutin: chef, author, cookbook author, co-founder of Blood's Barbecue, new grilling cookbook Grill Time out now, father of children whose palates he is about to abandon to Dorito nachos for the summer

Quotes From This Episode

  • "I put my list together based on how delicious the food looked. I'm just throwing that gauntlet right now." — Ian Karmel
  • "That exact meal got me through some tough times. Absolutely. Fried egg sandwiches hit so hard." — Noah Galutin
  • "I eat food, but I'm not like a food guy. It's all good unless it's seafood. My man likes to stay dry and hungry." — David Gborie, on Sean
  • "When a Jew loudly disagrees with you, that's not bullying. That's me sharing my culture with you. Ten years in, I need to lay that out." — Ian Karmel
  • "That scene in the Nutty Professor, I was like, I don't think anything funnier than this will ever happen again. But as a fat kid, it was like watching a shark swim towards you and you can't help but laugh at the shark." — David Gborie
  • "Don't buy my book. Have my wife leave me with the kids. Book me an apartment in New York. Within three weeks, the Travis Bickle version might be on the table." — Noah Galutin
