This is a glorious episode, as returning guests/friends Abe Kanan and Dan "Bass" Levy meet me at Chicago Culinary Kitchen (773 N Quentin Rd, Palatine, IL 60067) to try the restaurant's Baltimore Pit Beef special. Returning guests/CCK co-owners Greg and Kristina Gaardbo jumped in the car (at alternating times) to talk about their restaurant, food, beer and rock and roll.
In this Boost Mobile-sponsored episode, we discuss:
Abe's new creative endeavor: SLOB BLOG (part brilliance/part cry for help), and the celebrated Panda Express "Orange Chicken challenge." "Can you fit back there?" "No one can fit back there." Forks are for pussies. The Baltimore pit beef sandwiches are too large for the car, let alone our mouths. The horseradish factor in the pit beef sandwiches: "It hurts so good." Greg and Kristina's trip to Mexico: Many bugs were consumed. Flying ants, anyone? The majesty and amazingness of the Chicago Culinary Kitchen's menu. Abe's emergency sh*tting situations. "If someone's in a stall next to me, it's all fair game." My phone overheated, which Dan suspects was tied to the horseradish. Why homes should feel like hotels in the summer. Passerby Josh leans into the window as we're recording, and we feed him bacon. He also has a deep voice, like "Bass." Dry toilet paper "just doesn't get the job done."
