It\u2019s quite the thing. James is here after a day of some quality DIY commitment, Sam is not loving beer, there\u2019s carbonara chat and cannelloni yap too. This is followed up with some \u2018reopening of the pubs\u2019 discussion, Sam\u2019s father in law\u2019s digital sea sickness and the sad demise of Cafe Rouge. Before this week\u2019s guest arrives there\u2019s also some No Seat Christopher Nolan verbals and Sam has a weirdly erotic dream\u2026.. Praise be that aforementioned guest Jimi Famurewa shows up in the nick of time to talk lockdown, making his mum happy, Kid and Play, what the role of a food critic looks like post-pandemic and what happens when one Googles themselves. There\u2019s also time to discuss the fall of ex-Lucky Peach Editor Peter Meehan*, the hopefully inevitable fall of toxic food world twat energy culture and Jimi discusses what and where he feels his lane is in food writing. *To be clear, which this episode is not, (due to the loss of some audio to Zoom glitching), all three of us stand in complete sympathy and solidarity with anyone who had to deal with the grim sounding Peter Meehan. Listening back maybe it\u2019s not crystal clear but the part where I (Sam) said exactly that, has been lost to the digital ether and I wanted that to be made, if required, abundantly clear. Ta, and apologies for any confusion.
