I'm watching last week's Top Chef.  Loving this Japanese challenge and can't wait to see what they come up with.  And my Melissa  only grew when she assigned everyone the courses they wanted.  @Eephus @Steve Tasker have you watched yet?

 

[krista4]

Why is he persona non grata? Are we still mad at him about “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You”?

Huh?

Yes, season 17.  Excellent season so far.

I'm literally watching it now.  Just now getting to the first course of the dinner.  lol at Mike Tirico being there.

 

[krista4]

Crap.  I just realized I missed one on my list that someone could take.  Now I'm nervous.  I thought I was snipe-free now.

I'm generally not a big fan where the contestants are forced into cooking strictly defined courses that are tough to compare head-to-head. 

The challenge did get me interested in Kaiseki and I went down a rabbit hole looking at beautifully arranged Japanese dishes.

 

[Eephus]

That’s Bryan. 

Malarkey or Voltaggio?

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

Malarkey or Voltaggio?

I’m behind on Top Chef but I know these names. 

 

[Eephus]

I'm literally watching it now.  Just now getting to the first course of the dinner.  lol at Mike Tirico being there.

I liked how the Japanese judges were talking about specific knife cuts while the USA athletes were providing mundane feedback like I could eat ten of these.

 

[Eephus]

Current TC is an all-star format with returning chefs from previous seasons

Funny, just finished watching it. I love Brian V. He's like a cooking robot. He will be very hard to beat. Also his laugh is the most ridiculous. 

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Crap.  I just realized I missed one on my list that someone could take.  Now I'm nervous.  I thought I was snipe-free now.

understand.

I have 13 picks left to 30 ...and 21 picks I feel I pretty much HAVE to make.

walk around in THAT girdle for awhile ...

 

[Ilov80s]

17.32 Pastel Blues by Nina Simone (1965)

A really good modern blues album but the main event is the 10 minute closer, Sinnerman (sorry @rcam) If my island needs a fire, Nina's performance is enough to ignite one. 

Sinnerman

Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out

There's a pick!  And a great one.

@Dr. Octopus you are ITC!

I like him a lot but think Gregory might be the more complete chef.  And I love Melissa.

I had not been watching Last Chance Kitchen but am watching the two-part finale now.  Part two is very interesting - highly recommend watching!

I like Last Chance Kitchen more than the regular show.  It's almost all cooking without all of manufactured drama and product placement.  Plus it's got more Collichio who has always been the best part of the program.

My daughter and I have our Thursday night routine where we watch the previous week's Last Chance immediately before TC as an appetizer.

All good points.  Think it’s just because it’s so short that I don’t get as into it.  The second part of the finale, at 30 minutes, was very satisfying.

 

[Raging weasel]

Why is he persona non grata? Are we still mad at him about “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You”?

Yeah, I never heard of Ryan Adams and thought the same thing.

[El Floppo]

Watched "bad trip- an adventure in psychedelics" on Netflix last night. A bunch of comedians and some musicians talking about tripping. And sting. No relevations, but some funny stuff.

Was sad to see some people who were no longer with us, like Fred Willard and Ben Stiller taking about calling his dad.

But liked hearing my yo la tengo pick playing as the score.

Yeah I love Greg as well. Melissa is wife’s favorite. With Voltaggio, I don’t think his peaks are ever as good as some others buy he just doesn’t seem to make mistakes. He’s not going to do something dumb, overcook something, etc to get himself booted. He’s just so consistent.

Voltaggio's flaw is that he sometimes doesn't emphasize the featured ingredient enough in Quickfires but that's not going to get him eliminated.

Round 17 Hollywood Town Hall - The Jayhawks (1992)

The Jayhawks were my 1b to my 1a, Wilco as my "favorite new band" for many years. Their jangly guitars and harmonies really hit the spot for me. This is another record that is likely in the top 5 of albums I've listened to the most in the last 30 years and it's still in my regular rotation. They have two other albums I like nearly as much as this one but decided to go with their debut that sucked me in and which offers their signature sound. If you listen to "Waiting for the Sun" and think they ripped off Tom Petty's "Last Dance for Mary Jane", please look up when that song was released (hint, it's after 1992).
