I'm joined by the Burger Sage himself, George Motz. You may have caught one of his shows on the Travel Channel, maybe you came across his book, Burger America, at the book store or maybe you, like me, have drunkenly binged nearly every episode of his YouTube series, Burger Scholar Sessions. If none of this is ringing a bell, you've got a lot to look forward to and I hope this episode is a great st...

Sometimes it really is just a dozen donuts, but most o...

Steve Choi of RX Bandits joined me to discuss the French Fry. It's everywhere, it's delicious, it's comforting and, in my opinion, it's the ultimate vehicle for condiments. The French Fry may not be Steve's favorite food, but it's a part of his story and many touring musician's stories throughout their careers... From touring with no money in a 15 passenger van to day off Michelin Star restaurants...
