October 07, 2019 Chef Month: Week One w/ Chef Eric Greenspan
We are very excited to bring you all our first ever Chef month! Each week in October we will interview a local LA Chef and talk about their journey and why they love chicken, all the while picking up tips to use during week four, when Eric and Michael go head-to-head in round 2 of their chicken tender cook-off battle! Up first is Chef Eric Greenspan (Bubu's, The Foundry, Maré) who tells us about his journey from LA to NYC to Paris to Spain and back again, picking up tips along the way that lead him to owning some of LA's best restaurants. Now running a successful ghost kitchen, we talk the future of dining out vs. delivery, why it's hard to keep a restaurant open in LA, and how he lost 75 pounds over the past year. You really do not want to miss this one and the rest of the month ahead!

Somehow we have made it to 100 episodes!! That's over 100 locations visited, hundreds of tenders and nuggets consumed, and countless amazing guests, and now new friends. Thank you for continuing to support our fun little show! For this huge milestone of an episode we had to hit up one of the worlds leading Chicken Fingers chains and called in SNL Alum, Luke Null and his fellow comedian friend Alex Nichols, to help us with the review. So sit back, relax, and enjoy our first ever trip to RAISING CANE'S!

July 29, 2019 LIVE from the Hollywood Improv!
We'll just come out and say it, Outdoor Eating Month crumbled a bit at the end, but this week was not our fault! Anyway, the wonderful Mike Glazer was kind enough to let us come to his show Glazed (each month at the Improv) and review their tenders live on stage with the help of some audience members. Our first live recording was a bucket list dream come true, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed doing it! Next week: EPISODE 100 at RAISING CANES!

July 22, 2019 Baldoria, Bolo, and Daddy's Chicken Shack @ Smorgasburg LA w/ Hailley Field
For week four of Outdoor Eating Month we head back outdoors to Smorgasburg LA in Downtown LA. Because this open market has grown since our last visit, almost 90 episodes ago, we had to try more than three different places and we were not disappointed by any of them. We are joined on this foodie adventure, by Hailley Field of HomeCooked (homecooked.la) and we even try some ice cream! Tune in for all that and more!
