  1. I didn’t grow up a Dylan fan. Too young for folk music of the 60’s and started with the Beatles (mostly by their Saturday am cartoons show) then Steppenwolf and later typical southern blues rock with Allman Brothers and ZZTop. we watched this a few weeks ago. The history part was interesting. I had only learned of the controversy of him going electric from reading about it but it really captured that dogmatic view of the folk hierarchy. Joan Baez never looked that good. still don’t like much of his music or those in that genre, though only Joni Mitchell really drives hate from me.
  2. This is correct. Whomever won immunity would have been put in that seat. The differentiator would be how each might react to it. “Hey what’s this here?” This current player generation is terrible at keeping secrets; I’m glad Eva chose quickly to hide it.
  3. Whataburger spicy ketchup belongs on the patty melt.
  4. I hope the not really stepson is out of Robby’s life in S2 and it’s not an out of er thing to deal with. it will be interesting to see how the rookies progress and I hope Dana returns.
  5. the randomizer used to have a reel for time then they went to standard times per round. They replaced it with the wild card. I would like them to reevaluate these. The equipment category is the one that I think needs work as it’s often a non issue for a chef but then becomes very weird how that might be interpreted by judges. I think there are five things per wheel, items selected are replaced every battle. sara has lost a lot of weight since she was on Top Chef. She is not going to get glammed up to cook like a Giada. I believe had TC had blind judging she would have won one of her seasons. She is a bad ass chef that has been limited in exposure by being in Paducah, KY. A buddy was in Evanston IN and detoured to Paducah to eat at her place for dinner. He got there as a walkin was sitting at the bar and decided seeing the food and bourbon flights that he went and checked into a hotel and returned. He said it was one of the best meals he’d had in years. https://www.freighthousefood.com/
  6. Dublin needs to invest in an aluminum can machine and end its dogmatic devotion to only single glass bottles. Be like Rahr Brewing and embrace the appeal of cans to retailers.
  7. She would wear those tube tops with a denim miniskirt that was fire. She also wore tanks with sprayed on jeans. I don’t remember much about the barbecue.
  8. I thought Austin style breakfast tacos just had extra hipster assholery added to them. I never equated them to actual Mexicans.
  9. It’s great high pressure cooking without some of Top Chef’s silly team challenges and contrived events based on the sponsorships. Pure cooking. Single elimination. Both cooking same basics. the key differentiator to me is the blind judging by a generally top roster of rotating judges. it gets better talent as well because it is filmed quickly vs the slog of Top Chef’s long season to film. That show has to fit your job and life circumstances to participate.
  10. Wihan played that night like he had no clue. Next day he said he thought “she crawled in bed to talk”. He is the least self-aware compulsive liar. I wanted Johnny to tie him to the anchor. Obviously a casting decision to give Jason his own Gary but this idiot k ew nothing about boats.
  11. Antonia v. Britt sara v Lee ann Should be interesting. another season of cringey near racist nicknames by Guy. Give up the Chris Berman schtick
  12. At least it wasn’t the Swede. He’d be serving that dried shark cured in urine they eat plus reindeer cheese and ikea meatballs.
  13. Ok I’m not going to rehash 2000 years of papistry here but I hope the priest didn’t touch your private parts. So if you take the host during Lent does that violate the rule, since it’s the flesh of our Lord?
  14. Derek Allen hasn’t returned to bbq as far as I know. His barbecue was excellent and his FoH wife was the hottest lady in Texas bbq. But the grind finally broke him…that location was very tough, and he had to expand to breakfast and dinner hours. He also planned on a smashburger joint next door in the old donut shop.
  15. I’d say most parents on here would have a similar reaction to a child figuring out they will return to their life rather than choosing to reject everything about them.
  16. Hickory is the perfect wood for smoking. It is the primary wood in OG barbecue. Pork bbq culture is highly dependent on it.
  17. Bailey tore it up in LCK and on her return. She seems to have also developed a little rapport with Tom during her exile as well. She appears to be quite the chef in Chicago having been mentored by Sara Grunewald.
  18. We enjoyed it , and looks like shits gonna get real. Corbin benson is gonna go down. it’s updated Fun With Dick and Jane .
  19. Agree about surgeons protecting hands, but if you’re even a casual viewer why the fuck would you go on Survivor and risk hands and health? Be on Big Brother.
  20. All of the wives are either in on the shit or at least knowledgeable vs “Kay, do t ask me about my business!”
  21. Also what a holy shit moment in the park with Abbott to close the thing out.
  22. Sai and Ced offered nothing. Neither trustworthy, both shitty at all aspects of challenges, both idiots at the game. Waste of two slots.
  23. My question for Catholics and Lent, since we Baptists know nothing about it. My boss is Greek Orthodox and asked him same question, one that he hadn’t questioned in 65 years. Why can’t you just eat a slab of meat or a chicken fried steak and just go to confession and get your sin forgiven by the priest?
  24. I haven’t been but thanks for reminding me of it. Haven’t been since before Covid. When I worked In downtown it was a regular spot for out of town clients. “Have the calf fries!” I was fortunate to return to DFW at the ascendancy of Texas/Southwest cuisine in 86. It was a special time as it transformed fine dining which at that time was focused on the French Room, Saint-Emelion, and whatever was spinning around the Reunion ball. You youngsters don’t realize what eating out was really like until the 80’s. The takes were so different with Dean Fearing at the Mansion (that fucking lobster taco), Stephan Pyles at Routh Street and Baby Routh, the Rathbun places, Michaels in Ft Worth. When Grady Spears opened Reata on top of that bank it was so good. Those tenderloin tamales, his chile relleno, and CFS was all so good. As he left and went down his path of insanity Reata at Sundance Square had ups and downs. Gotta give it a shot.
  25. Good decompression and closure for S2. I was hoping measles mom would get mistakenly locked in the psych ward, or beaten by the guy that slugged Dana. hate that it’s over. I’ll rewatch in a month or two on a binge .
