      Sugar cookies are my favorite, but if I had chipless chocolate chip cookies idk those might win. The bites between the chips are the best part, the actual cookie part. They aren't exactly sold everywhere, and I suppose I could make them myself but I don't generally make cookies just for myself very often or I'd be much fatter than I am

    This is going to be a turning point for Josh, Mythical Kitchen, and the handoff that Rhett said he eventually wanted. Getting bigger names like Tom Hanks & Margaret Cho is the sign for other big celebrities to want to join in, and turn Last Meals into the next Hot Ones. We all already know Josh is capable of that depth.
    And the topic/format of Last Meals is just set up to be that much deeper than Hot Ones.
    A year from now, I feel like Josh is going to be interviewing a bunch of A-listers

He said himself that leaves you scared to make big choices because your afraid of being wrong. Rhett has such a sense of adventure that he is willing to jump headlong into that unknown or controversy. Those two sides make a better team and friendship

      My mom hates spaghetti. I always thought it was weird cause she's a Sicilian-American. But finally getting her to talk somewhat, I found that it was because she adored her dad. She was his favorite. When he came over from Sicily, he brought his family recipe for spaghetti sauce. He would take all day to make it & jar it. The kids would come into the kitchen & dip Italian bread into the pot of simmering sauce & he would get so mad about the crumbs that eventually he designated a small pot to simmer just for dipping. Had sausage, meatballs, all sorts of veggies, i hear it was amazing. Never passed the recipe to anyone. Mom researched all her life but never did she ever find a spaghetti sauce good enough to rival the memory of her daddy's spaghetti sauce. That's why she never liked spaghetti. The memory of Daddy's sauce.

    I really enjoyed this. I find myself connecting with Rhett more, especially in the way he thinks so deeply and methodically about life and existence. Rhett’s last meal was full of a lot more deep thought and Link was just here to eat food from Josh he actually likes. But it makes me appreciate not only Link as an individual but everyone else that doesn’t think in the same pattern as I do. We all analyze life differently and that’s important to how we grow as a species.
