September 23, 2026

Jordan went to Sora Craft Kitchen for the first time and breaks it all down for Max, who was in Carmel with KB eating and drinking during a wedding weekend, and the fellas had to Zoom record this one, which pissed off one of them. Plus, notes for all navigation systems, an aphrodisiac town, and the future of Mad Food may be in peril after this one.
