The chefs revisit cooking mistakes, we discuss our own culinary catastrophes, and Gwen's Food Minute makes a triumphant return!

It's a midseason reset! We rank the chefs and predict who will go all the way! Given how well Dan and I always do in our Top Chef fantasy league, take these assessments with a level of salt that Tom and Padma would find deeply offensive.

The chefs take on an incoherent drive-in movie challenge to very mixed results, Dan cruelly brings up the 1998 World Series, and Gwen wants everyone to know that moms don't need your damn salad!

Resting Bach Face isn't ready to say goodbye! Should these couples be together? Is Kendal still the worst (yes!)? Did your esteemed podcast hosts cry at the finale proposal? Yes! We are not made of stone!

The chefs face off over Campbell's soup, Dan feels strongly about outdoor cooking competitions, and Gwen expresses her warranted ambivalence toward pears!

“This game is evil in a very beautiful way,” says Maria, and Resting Bach Face is here for the excitement! Incredible Pan African cuisine, a Buckeye bite, and the first ever appearance of Gwen's Food Minute!

Helicopters or horses: which is more dangerous? Tom and Sophia: we don't stan but we may get it? Many questions, some answers, and the final BBQ right around the corner!

Aveshar and Shota are an iconic duo, chili relleno is hard for one host to say, and we pay homage to the greatest meal of the day, breakfast!

BETRAYAL! Tom weeps his way between hurt and rage, Kendal is what he is, and Dan gives Tula the highest award of all.

We talk all things Top Chef, from why we love the show to who we think will shine this season! Spoiler alert: Dan and Gwen love food.
