In this very special episode, Don introduces Ben to a mystery guest, Matt Collins and they play 20 questions unravelling the relationship. Ben relatively quickly gets to the Boy Scouts, sort of gets to their collective reintroduction through podcasting but never gets all the way to Matt's career as a chef. The three guys talk through a variety of food safety, COVID and operational things related to Matt's business and the culinary world. After Matt leaves, the guys talk about what to do with your refrigerator if you discover it had recalled food in it (spoiler alert: it does not include a flame thrower or explosives). The show ends on some Thanksgiving talk and Ben's discovery of plastic in his raspberries.
