We're heading back to Chicago's fine-dining kitchens for Alex's pick: the Season 3 finale of The Bear. In this intense closer, Carmen, Sydney, and Richie attend the emotional farewell dinner at Ever, where tensions run high and Joel McHale-sized traumas resurface. We're breaking down all the chef cameos and the raw moments this finale delivered. Don't forget to leave a comment on our Instagram @thefinalepod and share your thoughts on The Bear!

We start our recap discussion at the 14:50 mark if you want to fast forward past our Co-host Quickfire Catch-up, our Love It Lately recommendations, and the Icebreaker Intermission, where we share what we'd say to a former boss who deserves a piece of our minds.

The overall TFP rating for the Season 3 finale of The Bear is 6.30.
