Eat | Drink | Cheap Episode 28 – Aftershifter – So You Wanna Be A Chef?

Simon and Shawn sit down with their good buddy Nick for part 1 of a two-part discussion of life in the culinary industry. The boys go into what it means to be a “chef”, end up swapping Anthony Bourdain stories and never even get to the question that brought them together… Cheers!

Eat | Drink | Cheap Episode 17 – Gobble Gobble

Shawn commits turkey terrorism by suggesting that *gasp* turkey shouldn’t be roasted whole while Simon tries a more moderate approach. Gather ’round the table folks cause this episode has all the fixings!

Eat | Drink | Cheap Episode 07 – Cabbage

Shawn and Simon show some love for the humble cabbage. Plus, what makes a good coleslaw and why something as stupid as edible gold has a place on your plate.

Jess Garner’s Untitled Food Media Project

Getting to sit down with two old friends in the middle of a pandemic was an absolute joy.

Jess (who you may remember from my rhapsodic post about old BBQs) joined Nick (my other brother from a BBQ mother) to talk about comfort food for his Untitled Food Media Project. It was over an hour of nerding out about the things that make us go nuts after a long night on the line.

There are conversations about pho, katsu curry, fast food and (of course) bacon. All of this and more is available on Mixcloud.
