You had worse before? No Knife Edge season two is imminently here. Yeah. Congrats, man. I mean, emotional. Really emotional. It isn't it? My hair looks terrible in this series. I I... I'm so damn. It's flat as because I'm doing it myself. You've got like that kid from Clarkson Farm, the tractor guy. What's his name? From the show, what's your favorite storyline? Gareth, I feel heavy for. I love that guy. He's ripping up the rule book. The way he transcends you into sitting facing... It was almost like an audience. Then the disco ball for dessert, and then this character is just It's a serious. Stop it. EHO is crucial, and they gotta follow strict guidelines as you know. But I thought it was just unfair. The publicity was just extraordinary. But how close it was to the Michelin ceremony? Awful. That and this sort of groundbreaking Oh my god. From the whole series, which restaurant would you most wanna go to? Bierack. In Guernsey. Beautiful. That was probably one of my favorites from the whole series. And then just what he did with the orma. Even the shell looks like it's just come out of Hawaii. Several attempts to get it soft and less crunchy, and then he fries it simply, and then it's delicious. Yeah. It turns into a chicken nugget. Yeah. Just finish it off with the bison d'art. Oh my goodness. Oh my god. You realize just how articulate you've become in food no? Well, thank you. That's very kind. I do feel quite a lot of imposter syndrome as I'm not a chef. You host food shows, and you are talking with so much knowledge and an absolute Rolodex of Michelin tier today. We've got that now. But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... But... You will have... I have got a lot more knowledge, and I good a lot more confidence in sharing that knowledge. My doctor said my cholesterol is way too high. Shit. Yeah. Seriously? Yeah. No. Stop it. Already? Yeah. Fuck. Knife Edge season two, now streaming on Apple TV.
