Musician Brantley Gilbert and comedian John Crist swing by my Nashville kitchen for a star-studded menu. I make them Matthew McConnaughey’s tuna salad, Snoop Dogg’s fried bologna, and Matty Matheson’s tomato soup while we talk being California-sober and group vasectomies. Brantley also relives his viral moment – when his wife gave birth to their child DURING his show.
