The Nightmare Method

So what *is* a classic English pub?

This week we have a look at an episode that Peach thought might have been his favourite, until he had the chance to discuss it with Shag for this episode...

Our hosts Peach and Shag spend this week comparing Gordon to his contemporaries Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Rick Stein, considering what the most appropriate way is to help a person engaging in hoarding behaviour, and asking the most difficult of questions: "do we even like Gordon...?"

Please join us!

This week we have not an episode reviewing 'Kitchen Nightmares' or 'Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares' but (because it is just a Peach solo joint) we have an *Amuse Bouche*!

This amuse bouche is Peach's review of Gordon Ramsay's first iconic appearance on Hot Ones, Sean Evan's interview show and YouTube phenomenon, in early 2019.

Peach dives DEEP this week and does his best to get into what makes up The Nightmare Method, whether Gordon is a coward, and Gordon's absolutely terrible burger recipe, even though he's flying solo.

(Peach also quickly reaches the conclusion that Gordon has no idea what Hot Ones is, which adds to our glee!)

Hope you enjoy this one and promise we'll be getting back to Kitchen Nightmares next month!

Welcome to The Nightmare Method!

This episode starts with an interview with "Jamie" - a staff member at the Burger Kitchen!

Following that, please join us for a discussion of Burger Kitchen, Part Two, the restaurant at the centre of Episode 5 of Season 7 of 'Kitchen Nightmares', the American based incarnation of the show.

We have left behind low intensity Gordon and chef David Blaine (not the magician) and are now ready to listen to Danny Saffron cry the wettest, snottiest tears of all time. We also delve into the question of: what do we *really want* from Gordon?

This is our third epsiode of Season 1 of the podcast! Thanks for sticking with us through Season Zero. We're loving this pod and really grateful or your support as we keep it rolling along...

We're still dealing with a surprisingly low intensity Gordon, Peach's desire to share every titbit he can remember from Gordon's biography 'Humble Pie', a lot of Prozac-shaming, and - spoiler! - one the best cliffhangers in reality TV...

We're off to have some arguments about adding salt to mushrooms, egregious breaches of a trustee's fiduciary duties, and some bizarre views about frozen meat... There's so much in this episode that this is just Part One of a two-parter!

This episode is one of the first four Peach and Shag first recorded for this podcast and - as you'll hear - it's 'Season Zero'. We've adopted that name because as we were recording we were still exploring the *method*, and the audio quality, that we are going to use for forthcoming seasons of 'The Nightmare Method'.)

Welcome!

Here's a placeholder for The Nightmare Method - a quick note from Peach off the dome about what you can expect from this pod.

We have high hopes for this one and hope you enjoy it too.

We have christened the first 4 episodes "Season Zero". That's to show those are the episodes where you can hear we're still working on the audio and working on our structure. Rather than delete those eps we thought we'd share them and - depending on what everyone thinks! - get to work on "Season One" right away.

Thanks for joining us to explore The Nightmare Method!
