The world is dark and scary, let’s talk about delicious food. This week on the podcast, Noel and Kate dive in with season two of Netflix’s Ugly Delicious, David Chang’s travel and food series exploring under-discussed corners of the food world. Does the truncated season two live up to season one, and what do we hope to see in a potential season three? Before that, though, there’s plenty of TV to discuss. We kick things off with some thoughts on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Full Frontal with Samantha Bee’s takes on social distancing, at-home content. Then we talk Top Chef: All-Stars L.A., which is back, and not a moment too soon. Next we talk “World’s Worst” over at RuPaul’s Drag Race and the delightful return of the Judys to Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Steven’s still going through it on Steven Universe Future, and we round out the week with another charming, emotional DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. Take a listen, then reach out with your thoughts on the week’s TV, and make sure to join Noel, Kate, and friend of the show Allison Shoemaker next week for the start of our Lucifer daily binge.
