Having worked through the desire to mudwrestle and eat hamburgers, I decided to show up this week's podcast and also step in as host since Karen could not make it this week. However, we invited special guest Dale North on since he is the only other person on the staff as obsessed with Japanese food as I am. We are also joined by Tim Sheehy, Jake Thomas and Ben Huber as we talk about all things delicious.
You may want to come prepared, however, because if you have even a bit of a predilection for Japanese food, you're going to walk away from this episode hungry. Be sure to come armed with Pocky and Calpico, otherwise you may find yourself heading to your local J-grocery soon after (or you could just listen to it in the car on the way there)!
