The past year has been an incredibly difficult one for restaurant owners. Many have struggled to stay open and to stay financially solvent during a global pandemic.

This struggle is front and center in season 18 of Bravo’s Top Chef. It was also the motivating factor for Jamie Tran, chef and owner of Las Vegas’ The Black Sheep, to compete on the show.

We talked to Jamie about her path to becoming a chef, her restaurant’s struggles during Covid and what it’s like competing on Top Chef.

This week’s music:

• Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
• Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas Perný & Miloslav Kollar

Marty and Jonathan look to see who got the better deal.

Now that Falcon and the Winter Soldier has ended, it feels like the perfect time to revisit Joel and Lars’ thoughts on the first episode.

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle are joined once again by Molly Regan to share their thoughts on every major category in the 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony (including all of the ones they definitely aren’t qualified to discuss, like cinematography).

It’s been a strange year for movies. With studios holding back on releasing their biggest films, there is a field full of unlikely contenders this time around. Will Hollywood take some chances and reward people they’d normally overlook? Probably not. But you’re going to watch anyway, so you might as well hype yourself up by listening to this extra-long episode.

This week’s music:

• Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
• End – “This Ain’t Hollywood” by Silence Is Sexy

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle remember the life of the truly one of a kind rap icon DMX.

DMX has come up a number of times before on the show, so they also revisit two of those times – 1.) Hobo Radio 332, where they discussed the phrase “Twice as butt” from “Where The Hood At?” and 2.) Joel’s interview with Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, where they explained how getting the rights to “X Got’ Give It To Ya” was like an episode of Law and Order.

They also vent their frustrations with Netflix canceling shows prematurely and the Arclight Theaters closing.

This week’s music:

• Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
• End – “X Gon’ Give It To Ya/No Diggity (Acoustic Mash-Up)” by Steven Smith

Marty and Jonathan are planning for a party. Who is bringing the napkins?

Elizabeth Ito has spent more than 15 years working in animation on shows like Adventure Time and her award-winning Cartoon Network short Welcome to My Life.

Her new Netflix show, City of Ghosts, is about a team of adorable young ghost hunters who travel around LA interviewing spirits and learning about the rich history of the city and its eclectic inhabitants. After a rough few years, it is essential comfort viewing.

We interviewed Ito about her career in animation, the development and execution of City of Ghosts and her anxiety about the child actors aging out of their parts.
