Matū with Jerry Greenberg and Team

Audience questions are answered by Jordan and Max, supplying the food knowledge you need, from tipping etiquette to personal maritni recipes, celebratory birthday destinations, and more trash sushi talk. Plus, Mideast Tacos, lunching in the 818, waiting in line for food, Beautiful loves Tito's, open faced bagels, 90's music, Addison advice, the L.A. bread scene, frozen pizza, more on KB, an if Shapiro can actually cook status update, and a review of Eater L.A.'s recent essential restaurants list.

Jordan and Max are joined by Beautiful Ben to discuss two recent meals. First up is the Virgil Village izakaya where the boys talk tons of grilled sauced meats, the real hospitality bubbles, and pounds of soft serve that has all made its way into Jordan's ro-ro. The second restaurant tale brings the boys to Calabasas for every food influencer's favorite sushi, where the setting and bites are reviewed, leading to a broader discussion on modern day food critics and their influence. Plus, an L.A. wings discussion, Jordan suprises the fellas with his dedication to the craft, the old man who hated O.J., the old woman who hated Stella, mixing wasabi and soy sauce, Bill Addison and Max are finally aligned, Jordan saw Springsteen, and a "Can Shapiro Actually Cook" sequel update.

Jordan is joined by his dad Dave, Shapiro, and Peckerman to review a steak dinner they all shared at the newest Beverly Hills beef haunt. The bread, shrimp, salad, steaks, sides, and desserts are all covered as they umtimately decide if this is the traditional steakhouse experience Los Angeles has been missing. Plus, a potato side dish discussion and how to pronounce au gratin, chilled forks, Big Wave loved Josh in Openheimer, Josh had a note for Christopher Nolan, gobbling the bone, and Jordan has a bone to pick with one of the fellas.

Jordan and Max talk a sequel to the Can Shapiro Actually Cook? episode, Bubbles isn't so alone anymore, the perfect date night order at Stella, and two new restaurants the boys are excited about: Kushiba on Sunset for fried Japanese sticks and wagyu corned beef, and Leopardo on La Brea for all the wood-fired excellence from ex-Saison and Angler master Josh Skenes. Plus, the ass-stained palace, Taco Bell’s new slow roasted chicken, The Bear did not cast Max as a food critic, Jordan talks shrimp necks, and what we all should have learned from Henry Winkler.

The Hollywood legend is a food lover, so Jordan joins Henry and his daughter Zoe to talk all the Winkler food love, including a 40 year relationship with Matsuhisa, how to scramble eggs the Henry way, the icon's favorite chocolate chip cookie, and a lifelong Wonder Bread love affair. Plus, a Cindy Crawford off-the-menu rice dish, the day after Thanksgiving sandwich, Henry's bagel making stuns Jordan, the infamous Winkler Dessert Table, and a Robert DeNiro story that spans four decades. Henry's new book, Being Henry: The Fonz...And Beyond is a New York TImes Best Seller, and available everywhere books are sold, including right here.

The LA vs NY debate is over, and we hate to tell ya, but LA has some work to do. Jordan and Max discuss why Los Angeles is currently lacking in the food world, how the city can storm back, and what new restaurants will help bring the ruckus. They also talk meals at Poltergeist and Holbox, Vespertine’s return, Daniel Boulud coming to Beverly Hills, what the correct French and Spanish restaurants should look like, Cipriani vs. Dunsmoor aka our demise, and Erewhon's laughing at us. Plus, the intermittent fasting article everyone is sending the fellas, what the hell is going on in real estate, and Max's nude injury.

Audience questions are answered and it’s all bill splitting etiquette, Somebody Feed Jordan and the new Phil Rosenthal x Nancy Silverton diner, bar cart essentials, ranking LA cuisines, solo dining, an A5 wagyu discussion, making out in restaurants, a Culver City princess cake, Max is cooking again and yet is an extreme Stella fella, and most importantly, are the boys finally getting on that Ozempy?

The Academy Awards are this week and many dreams are about to become reality, so Jordan invited some Tinseltown friends over to make their food dreams come true at McDonald’s, by all creating their very own adult happy meals. The fellas break down the massive buffet by chef Ronald, Bob Koch drops McDonald’s knowledge all over the place and eats bread for the first time in two decades, Sam Pitman reviews all the nugget sauces and paired the meal with wine, and Michael Lasker is not only an Oscars savant, but he’s crowned the Quarter Pounder king. Plus, Jordan tries an iconic McDonald’s item for the first time, they order a secret menu item for the table, it was Shamrock season, but a different dessert blew minds, and the guests compete in a classic film quotes game.

It was early 2020, the pre-Coron days, Angler was open (the 1.0 version, the good sh*t), and Air Jordan was co-hostless until a red 911 screeched to a halt in palm tree swaying 818 daylight. Max entered the Sherman Oaks Food Building for the first time, to meet Jordan for the first time, and the fellas talked their Apple Pan love, Wolfgang passion, Dan Tana's appreciation, and even back then, Jordan was mispronouncing everything. Hear the truffle oil hate origins, the Massimo frustrations, the reality TV career that never got going, and things have changed for the big bearded ones, but they've also remained the same.

You know Chace Crawford from Gossip Girl and The Boys, but Max somehow knows him as a friend, so they both showed up inside the Sherman Oaks Food Building to talk Chace’s favorite restaurants, their bromance that has bloomed over the years, another Gjelina brunch, and all the fellas got sneak peak bites of Stella West Hollywood, and review the best chews. Plus, the newest L.A. neck you must respect, Jordan and Chace are nut-aligned, breakfast pizza talk, Bubbles gets upset with Chace’s favorite food, Stella’s outrageously heightened service when it came to Jordan chewing gum, and who’s the real celebrity: Chace or Max?
