I just got to give my dad his last meal. I was sitting in the hospital with my dad, his doctor came in and told him he had a few hours, maybe days left. Afterword the staff came in and left his dinner, it was meatloaf and carrots. I asked him if he wanted that for dinner and he said no. He wanted ice cream and caramel corn. So I jumped up and got him ice cream and caramel corn from the nearest grocery store. He enjoyed his dinner and he was gone the next morning. I'm glad he got to have the dinner he wanted.
I'm sorry for your loss. I hope there's a lot of ice cream and caramel corn where he is now
Keep your head up
I'm so sorry for your loss, losing a parent is one of the worst things.
Why is someone cutting onions in my living room? 😢
aww 😢 ♥
Andrew is a hero for getting through that story while sipping coffee knowing the bourbon was up next.
My morning nausea was slowly fading away for the first 20 minutes of this video, then after reading your comment, the realization of the inevitable consequences of their beverage choices made it all come flooding back 🤣😰
I was so caught off guard by his revelation. Like the content warning at the beginning had me rolling my eyes; like whatever, he is a millionaire, boohoo... But, he definitely is just matter of fact of his struggle and how he doesn't need sympathy, he just wants people to be comfortable about talking their own experience. It is really refreshing makes me respect him alot!
@@marmalar I will say, even if your comment wasn't intending to be harmful, being a millionaire doesn't... exempt you from sexual trauma? You don't just "boohoo your trauma is invalid" at someone being assaulted, be it they're rich or poor. Please practice thoughtfulness.

“I am happy, but later I won’t be, and later I will be again”
Boy if that isn’t the truest statement I’ve ver heard. Wonderful interview.
Is this a quote from anywhere else because im going to say this a lot and want to make sure im citing the right person lol.
@@CptFailureI’m pretty sure it’s a Babish original. It does remind me of one of my favorite quotes though. It’s from a book called Rhythm of War. While I can’t explain all of the context around it, the important thing to understand is that the character Kaladin has depression and is at one of his lowest points when he is having this conversation.
Kaladin said. "You told me it will get worse." "It will," Wit said, "but then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you Kaladin: You will be warm again."
It's a riff on a common buddhist saying "This will pass."
@srlong1123 stormlight archive was great. i need to go back and listen to it again, i've forgotten most of what went on
@@CptFailureas @isaintlikei4076 mentioned, it may be a take on a popular zen buddhist koan
Once a student went to his teacher and said, "My meditation is horrible. I feel so distracted. My legs hurt. Sometimes I fall asleep." The teacher replies, "Don't worry, it will pass." A week later, the student comes back to his teacher and says, "My meditation is wonderful. I feel so aware, so peaceful, so alive. It is wonderful." The teacher replies, "Don't worry, it will pass."
"Pollo-amorous" was the chicken joke they were looking for
That, or "poly-pollo". I was shouting it at the screen every time they brought it up, LOL
THANK YOU
Poultry-amorus
Parmy-amorous
I was thinking poly-poulet, but yours is better.
As a 35 year old man with many issues hidden, I would have never guessed that I would be crying like a child watching a cooking show. I could listen these 2 for hours. They are the celebrities that let me know I'm not alone
I feel that. You're not alone.
39 here, and same
Same
Big hugs
Not to be that guy, but I have to be. This isn't a cooking show, it's a themed interview show. Also maybe I'm just cold-hearted but I can't possibly imagine anyone crying to this. Not because I can't relate to the stories, but for lack of a better term, nothing seems cry-worthy for positive or negative except maybe for Andrew himself.
Can Josh and Andrew start like a once a month podcast or something? There's clearly so much love, respect, and mutual admiration between these two who both have so much more depth and humor and empathy than most would otherwise know. This was easily my favorite episode of Last Meal's to date. Thank you to Andrew for sharing his story, and thank you to Josh for sharing his. When we talk about the difficult things we have faced in our past, it helps remove the stigma surrounding mental health, and it allows others who may be walking that same path to have some foot prints they can follow to find daylight again.
I wish! Sadly them living on opposite coasts makes that difficult. It's why despite their collabs always being amazing we only get em once ever two years or so
@@rileyscherer129they could do a zoom podcast! Reddit on wiki has been doing to for year and it works well I didn't even know they weren't next to each other until a few months in when I watched a TH-cam video of them.
100%, that would be awesome
This moment is special because it’s not going to happen frequently. Try to soak it in rather than wish for more!
As a victim of SA myself, I really, really appreciated Andrew's honesty and openness here. I almost didn't watch after the warning at the beginning but am glad I persisted. It messes with you in so many ways that can take years to unpack, and TBH, some aspects of the trauma never really do go away, at least from my experience. But there is hope on the other side, and it's inspiring to see how much Andrew has found tools to help heal! I doubt you'll see this, Andrew, but please know how much this was appreciated (and I'm admittedly not even a regular watcher of your show). ❤
I feel Im a victim myself of mst. It took 3 yrs for me to even say it and get help. I hope one day I can get to Andrew's stage of being happy and open
there alot of stuff i keep bottled up it so hard to talk about that stuff man it seems like nobody cares so to see him talk about it man I feel good
I'm sorry if this comes off as rude (I truly hope you are well and will be okay) but HOLY TRAUMA DUMP.😢
I'm sorry if this comes off as rude (I truly hope you are well and will be okay) but HOLY TRAUMA DUMP.😢
@@Jakey726 Can you grow up? This isn't even a trauma dump, they're just saying their own thoughts.
As someone who is a huge. HUGE fan (own the cookbooks) of Andrew and binging with babish, I had wondered where he went for the last year. I am in absolute tears over this story. I am so proud of you, Andrew and I am so thankful you exist and you’re persisting. I am. So so sorry. You deserve so much more and so much better from life. Thank you for sharing and trusting your audience with this.
I had wondered too. I knew Alvin was doing a lot of episodes, and I wondered why as I don't really follow him on social media. I'm very glad to see him back, but if he'd needed more time I would have been okay with that too 💕
Me too. Was about to visit his page since I haven't seen him anywhere. Thank goodness for the algorithm.
Maple syrup over snow... Babby, your honorary Canadian citizenship is in the mail.
Where the pickle tho? 😂
@@gauchegreyhound at 9:48am after still on my first cup of coffee, you've broken my brain. Is this a thing or was this just a joke; eating maple syrup on ice with a pickle?
@@DanielRWomack It's real. I've seen it many times. The crazies version was when someone used a hockey stick as a paddle too roll up the maple syrup. It was a big lollipop.
@DanielRWomack this Canadian has never seen it done/ eaten with a pickle!
@@Brainspoil gurl u is so lyin
I never realized how much depth this man has. All the respect in the world for him, what he does and what he’s been through.
I had no idea Andrew went through all that in the last several years. He's so brave and amazing for sharing his story. I'm so proud of him and I hope he is really doing well and continues to do whats best for himself.
“Go easy on yourself. The voice in your head wants to tell you that you are nothing that you should be. And in fact, you are everything you are supposed to be.”
This brought me to tears. I have always said to myself that nothing that anybody says to me could be worse than what I say to myself, because at the end of the day the person who hates me the most is myself. It’s to the point I can’t even look at myself in the mirror most days and just constantly beat myself up. But just hearing those words brings me a moment of relief. A reassurance that everything that I think is wrong with myself, that I hate, that I think I should change to make myself or someone else happy, that it should be this or that, is actually ok.
Thank you.
The inhale, stare, cadence and his "Last Words" hit me like a truck. I hope he, and everybody including myself find happiness in our days. Everyday or even just some days.
Yeah immediate tears over here
INSTANTLY welled me up with tears. Felt like a punch directly to the chest
Damn! It was beautiful.
One can only hope to be there in the last moment: No regrets.
I can't overstate how stunningly beautiful this episode was. The vulnerability and hope and raw honesty and everything else that emanates from these two is so moving. Thank you Andrew and Josh.
You put it so beautifully. I completely agree. 💕
What was the Radiohead reference for? Are either of them fans???
So i'm having a really hard time at the moment, and having Andrew look directly into the camera and say "you're everything that you're supposed to be" really resonated with me and had me bursting into tears out of nowhere. Last Meals is such a wonderful series and I wasn't expecting to weep into my coffee this morning, but I'm grateful that it happened. Thank you so much
“I am happy, later i won’t be and later I will be again” hit me rlly hard. I was diagnosed with MDD when I was 16 and knowing that you will always have that back and forth is scary but the way he words it was so beautiful and encouraging to me. Andrew truly has made me feel so seen
This was by far, in my opinion, the BEST episode of Last Meal's. I love Andrew and Josh, and this episode made it feel like we were friends rather than watching some internet personas. It's both saddening and comforting to know that people you look up to are struggling with the same things you are. Much love guys, great job
I thought the exact same thing and came to the comments to see if anyone else thought this was the best episode too! These two people are really inspirations for the world of social media.
Andrew really is one of the most genuine people on the internet. Not only is he charismatic but also just so down to earth people are just naturally drawn to him as he is drawn to them.
I don't think he comes across as someone who has a huge and wild personality until he seems like he gets comfortable with you,
And that's also an endearing side to him, that once he opens up he turns into a clown
What was the Radiohead reference for??? Are either of them fans?
@@aarkproductionsIt’s a common thing with people with a lot of baggage that has affected them very horribly negatively and they’re aware of it and they don’t want to put that heaviness on anyone who doesn’t deserve it. If you allow them to feel comfortable, they will try to heal and speak up about their pain with you. A lot of extremely funny and happy people aren’t anymore because of trauma, but it’s still there within them. There’s just different means of allowing that side of them to come out cause traumatized people carry social walls wherever they go.
@@theucheao
Fascinating I Love this take
if someone wants to get the maple toffee right; you have to bring the maple syrup to a boiling point so it's less watery and the shock with the freezing snow turns it into a lollipop almost instantly.
this is a genuinely unreal episode, josh and andrew have knocked this out of the park. incredibly touching and profound
I feel like the caring and empathy his audience have for him is Andrew's reward for being so open and caring and thoughful in his videos. And entertaining as hell.
If Hot Ones can get a TV spot. THIS definitely deserves one. Better interviews then anything else on TV
Syndication kills the best of ideas in TV projects
The thing is, people put tv on a pedestal when in fact youtube is it's own masterpiece and taking this to tv with producers and higher ups would ruin what this show is because the beauty of youtube is that you're in control of its final product.
This is way too deep for tv. Would be hard for networks to make cash with it. Better on TH-cam, keep the integrity.
The Hot Ones/Last Meal meetup would definitely be something to look forward to
Fr
I love how sentimental these dishes are for Andrew. I’ve been watching his channel for years and love this interview and his relationship with Josh.
This video was 100% not what I thought it was going to be based off of the title and card, but damn I am glad I found it and kept watching. It’s very rare for me to see or experience conversations this honest and poignant. I’m going through my own hard time rn, maybe the hardest time I’ve ever experienced. It was so cathartic and hopeful to listen this conversation, and know what another person’s awful time looks like and know there’s something beyond it. Thank you for sharing and wishing you all the best!
This was unexpectedly profound and heartfelt. Plus, the touching and hilarious bromance between Josh and Andrew is just a cherry on top.
Legitimately the best episode of this series yet. As someone who's witnessed many family related deaths close up, I cried multiple times. What a beautifully candid conversation. I am so, so glad I watched this.
I love that snow candy was on Andrew's list. That's such a sweet, fun thing that I remember being totally enchanted by as a little kid. I'm so grateful to have gotten to see this conversation. Truly one of the best people on the internet.
these two men, the mutual respect and openness they share, the humor. This video is wonderful. They both let the real sides show here, and for content creators, that's so rare. Awesome dudes.
This is episode is gonna be hard to top for me. Andrew's honesty and kindness and humor, with Josh's wisdom and wit, and their mutual admiration for one another just sent me. ❤
This episode was very different from the norm, but I believe it is an incredibly special thing to see josh and andrew connect and have a more involved episode. This didn't feel like a last meal for them, but more like the first of many to come in this way. Much love to both of them, amazing video!
Easily one of my favourite Last Meals episodes. Hearing you two talk about your struggles is always comforting for those like myself who have been through similar things.
What an absolute gem of an interview, the way the both of you are not afraid to be vulnerable and talk about really tough subjects is inspiring to me. I loved this so much and it helped me in a time when I really needed it.
'How did you get your toast so warm?'
'Toaster.'
That's the simplest, yet funniest response I have heard to a question in some time.
"how do you keep your pants up?"
"belt."
"How can you maintain your day-to-day relationships on a social sense while keeping your businesses seperate?"
"weed"
@@DovaDudeThe first thing I thought of lol
My boyfriend, who has since passed, introduced me to BWB years ago. I bought his cookbook but haven't really watched his channel since my boyfriend's passing. I never knew what Andrew went through, and he is amazing for being able to be so open with the world about his struggles. The respect I gained for him just grew exponentially. I am going to be going back and binging his channel and start actively supporting him again. Thank you for bringing him on this channel, and reintroducing him to me. Also, just love the dynamic these 2 have! ❤
Im so sorry for your loss.
This video is incredible. I love watching how two friends can make light hearted jokes while acknowledging the awkward moments that happen when you talk about concepts this heavy. These are the kinds of friendships I hope everyone has the option to have. It looks like really comforting support.
“I am Happy. Later I won’t be, and later I will be again.” Just tears me apart
This series could easily be as big as Hot Ones in a few years.
Sean Evans uses spice to make his guests uncomfortable and loosen their defenses which makes them more honest. But he's skilled enough to keep them interested in the interview with his charm and good questions.
Josh breaks down a guest's defenses by offering them personalized comfort food and being the big friendly giant that he is, but he then digs deeper into their minds and soul by bringing up concepts of death and loss.
Both are very different but they kinda accomplish the same goal. They humanize the guest and give a great interview.
Bravo.
maple syrup poured over snow is genuinely not something i would’ve expected from anyone’s last meal
This Canadian is super stoked about it though.
It's a childhood favorite for a lot of people from the northeast US and Canada, very nostalgic.
I had that same school trip growing up in New Hampshire, and while maple syrup on snow is pretty nice. My take away was maple syrup on ice cream. Also dark brown thicck goo in a plastic bottle will have no place in my house. It's real maple syrup or nothing at all.
My fam makes maple syrup in VT and this is one of my fav memories.
sugar on snow is the only snack for a real vermonter
One of the greatest interviews of all time. Andrew was incredibly profound, humble and devastatingly vulnerable. It was so powerful to hear his story, and outlook on life. Josh was full of grace, had the right feel for when to withdraw and when to use the format to facilitate this warm, familial, open space. An amazing journey all around.
Andrew, your raw openness about struggles, especially on mental health, hits deep. Your courage to share speaks volumes. I've battled too, and your honesty? It's a lifeline. Your passion to keep creating against all odds? It's beyond inspiring. Your journey touches souls. Thanks for being real, Andrew. You're changing lives
Not gonna lie, the quote at the end made me ugly cry. I constantly battle myself with how I'm doing in life and hearing someone tell me it's okay really hit me. Thank you guys.
I'm a total stranger reading your comment. But I want to say this. You are worthy. Worthy of love, worthy of happiness, worthy of good things in life, as much as everyone else, period. This is a universal truth, and as hard as it may be to tell ourselves that, I'm telling you that, and anyone else who reads this. Wishing you and everyone in your life, the best.
@@venombeyond thanks dude, I really appreciate that 🖤
🖤 🖤🖤🖤
Sending support your way. And I get it, it’s hard trying to navigate through this crazy thing called life. Surround yourself with people that are not only positive but want the best for you. Continue to work and be the best version of yourself. Like @venombeyond said, you are worthy of happiness, to be loved and all good things. Peace and blessings to you.
His last words really hit me. That was one of the most poignant, beautiful episodes of this show that I think I've seen. Loved it from start to finish.
This video made me cry. Thank you so much for both of you being open about things not only like loss, mental health, SA and more, especially Andrew. It really felt like 2 friends talking about terrible topics in a safe space, and it felt very healing to witness even though it seems like both of you seem so comfortable with the pain and are healing/healed through it. I lost my dad a little over a year ago, and the topic of loss and grief made me feel heard, and I'm forever grateful for this series and the conversations that happen through out it.
I've been so busy that I've fallen behind on my babish content. I remember months ago thinking man I miss the old videos with Andrew cooking and making his jokes. Hearing this entire interview made me emotional. Emotional knowing the things he went through, and emotional knowing that he has good people around him. What a wonderful interview❤
Thank you Andrew and Josh for this episode.
Josh’s ability to be quiet while Andrew told his story was really impressive to me. Gives proof to the fact that though this show seems silly, it has a serious side and is capable of doing both in an amazing way.
How incredibly moving! Andrew, your honesty and hope is truly sacred. I cried as you shared and smiled with hope at the end because of your words. Thank you for showing the world that it’s okay to not be okay and to be brave enough to share. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
A few years ago I went through my own big trauma and found so much comfort in Andrew's channel. It breaks my heart to know he went through so much pain, but I'm glad he can still be so open with us. A wonderful episode that definitely didn't make me cry multiple times.
I am so glad that Josh asked Andrew about the trauma and furthermore that Andrew spoke out about it. It is so hard to say those things out loud but the healing it leads to is immense and gives others the courage to speak out about it as well. Thank you for this one
My heart has broken multiple times halfway in for you Andrew. I truly hope you find happiness and peace cause I know this is a long journey to get through.
Wow. I couldn't sleep so I'm watching youtube like one does and was not ready for how beautifully heavy this episode was. Thank you both for being so open, vulnerable and honest. I'm not crying, you're crying
i needed this interview. i’ve only ever really heard of babish before, but this sold me. as a victim of several not so great things brought up in this interview, and constantly wondering “what will make me happy” instead of being happy in the moment this was needed. thank you, josh and andrew
This is the best interview yet. I love this so very much.
34:51 “Go easy on yourself. The voice in your head wants to tell you that you’re nothing that you should be. And in fact you’re everything you’re supposed to be.”
I’m not crying- you’re crying. ❤️
Just incredible ❤
What Josh does with these interviews is just incredible. I'm not crying, you're crying. 🥺❤
We're all crying
This episode really changed my perspective on life. I’ve been struggling with depression,anxiety and constant stressing about what’s to come and how to get there since the age of 13. I am so grateful to have seen this episode. I have so much love for Andrew for staring his story and perspective ❤
I was not expecting this at all! This was absolutely amazing! Andrew, thank you so much for being so open about everything. In a world of fake social media, this felt so true and simple. Favorite video of the show!
My love and respect to Andrew, it’s so hard to open up about that. Great video guys 💕
I’m very happy. I’ve been a fan of both Binging With Babish and Mythical Kitchen for a long time and it’s amazing that Andrew is finally on Last Meals and just having a fun conversation with Josh. This was the best one yet and I can’t wait to see what comes next. Also Andrew, with that smart choice of including Maple Syrup over Snow, you are now an honorary Canadian…expect your honorary Canadian citizenship in the mail.
amazed by Andrew’s openness, I think this really speaks to the genius of this format. So many tender moments in this that will really stick with me, thank you both!
this episode brought me to TEARS. everyone goes through moments like that and realizes that there’s always a lesson learned. and these lessons help others. i needed this ❤
I'm crying and it's 10 mins in. So much love and respect to Andrew for being so open
It's so sad that Babish seeked help like a responsible person, and the poor conditions of the Healthcare system made it even worse ☹️. I'm happy he's better now.
before watching this i’d only been an average watcher of binging with babish, and now I’m in awe at how great of a person andrew is- Josh as well, this episode had such down to earth and thoughtful conversations that it made me cry. definitely my favorite episode of last meals and i’m so happy he came onto the show.
What an absolutely beautiful and profound interview between two incredible people. One of my favorite YT videos I think I've ever watched. Thank you Josh and Andrew
I love how fancy yet simple his choices are. Nothing too extravagant but enough flourishes to meet a last meal
Babish opened a passion for cooking in me, and led me to finding mythical kitchen, and mythical as a whole. My heart is so warmed by this reunion and hope the best for them and all involved in their genius
Aww, man. This was almost too much to bear. Bless you, Andrew for your candor and being so open. And thank you, Josh, for giving your friend a safe space to share his story. Wishing you both all the best.
I’m absolutely stunned. I can’t imagine what you’ve had to work through. My problems that I have thought were really hard is no where near what your last year or so has been. It just goes to show that everyone has a journey as you said. Keep moving forward ❤
By far the best last meal episode yet, intensely thought provoking and entertaining. I have been subscribed to Binging with Babish for a while now but I cant say that I've been intensely connected to the community surrounding the channel and this was my first real introduction to the man behind the culinary universe. Knowing how thoughtful and genuine Andrew/Babish is makes me even more happy to have watched damn near every upload since late 2017.
This was so beautiful, in so many ways. I laughed, I cried, I laughed again, I cried again, then I finished the video with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. I will definitely try to take Babish's last words to heart and "go easy on myself"... That hit so hard, in so many ways. Just thank you to everyone involved in making this episode.
This is my favorite "Last Meal" episode so far. Thank you for being so open and honest about everything! You two are amazing people.
andrew speaks with so much clarity and maturity about his experiences i really respect that. im really glad he was open to getting care, thats the hardest part. good on you, man. love u
Thank you both very much for this episode, I am a self taught chef of almost 30 years in kitchens around the world and this show literally brought tears to my eyes. A few years back I lost my wife to a random intestinal infection that seemingly came out of nowhere and caused her to pass away after only three days after first being discovered. I fell into a world of depression I didnt even know existed. It was a mental state that I would never wish anyone to go through. As time crept on two things that entered my life was watching both Josh and Babish at first it was just background noise but as time went I really got to see them both grow. As I mentally started to "recover" I really found both of these guys to be not only inspirational but honest and real. Todays show really put that all into a new light. THANK YOU BOTH SO VERY MUCH!
Andrew's last line hit me like a bag of bricks. What a beautiful person.
genuinely I saw the comment before the words and I was like no way but it definitely made me cry
AMAZING interview!! Thank you SO much for your honesty Andrew. I don't care if you ever see this, but I want you to know that you are an inspiration in SO many ways. You have encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and learn to become a better cook, and you have encouraged me to get the mental help I have needed for so long. THANK YOU Andrew, thank you Josh and thank you Mythical Crew for making this happen!!
You both have taught me so much in the kitchen and I will freely admit that this episode made me cry. I too struggle with depression and anxiety and it is always uplifting to see people you look up to who have the same issues but can still be successful! Also, this is my first year teaching Home Ec and both of your videos have helped me with my lesson planning on multiple occasions. My students love you both!
This video made me feel so much more human about my bipolar disorder. Mania is such a hard thing to deal with. I appreciate his candor on a subject most people aren't willing to talk about.
Josh has such an astounding way to connect with his guests, bringing out such a genuine and heartfelt conversation that is equal parts light and immensely deep. Tears were shed today.
right..like cutting Andrew off at the end when he goes over “30 words” ..Josh was his name? was kinda an ass at the end
I already loved Andrew and this just made me love him that much more. As others have said, his openness, his candidness, and vulnerability are things we aren't used to seeing on the internet. Especially from someone as high profile as him. This interview and meal between these two is so lovely.
And on a serious note thank you for being so honest. There was a tear or two with the openness. And yes there were parts that hit really close to home. I'm glad you too realize the end zone is always moving. I have binged the last few hours and this video shows the real you. Thank you, thank you, thank you...
Wow, practically the beginning of the episode, and I'm getting up, walking away, and taking a few minutes to absorb Andrew's story. Josh, this show continues to be an amazing vehicle for amazing sharing moments; good conversation and good food really bring out the frankness in people.
Andrew, thank you for sharing.
"Go easy on yourself, the voice in your head wants to tell you that you are nothing that you should be, and in fact, you are everything that you are supposed to be." Powerful. Thank you for the candid and heart felt interview.
What an unbelievably powerful video this was. Thank you both for this, just changed my mindset quite a bit.
This was the first time i cried watching content from any mythical channel and i am not mad about it!
You are both great at what you do and use your individual platforms to talk about some serious stuff that needs to be said.
Thank you Andrew and Josh for being such great human beings ❤
2:10 not even 3 minutes into the video, and Andrew just says the most existential thing I've heard today. It makes sense why Josh and him get along so well.
This is the first Last Meals interview I have cried during. Just something about the cadence and realness of the conversation that is extremely moving. Thank you Andrew and Josh!
This one and the Josh Peck episode man…just beyond beautiful
This show has given me so much insight to all these people ive watched for oh so long, thank you Josh, and thank you Rea.
This video pushed me to reach out and get the help I’ve been needing. Thank you guys for being so open. Your guys journeys resonate and inspire.
Andrew is such a genuinely good guy, it just breaks me that he has gone through so much. But sadly that is probably why he is such an amazing guy. much love and healing to you Andrew and you as well Josh!
Babish has been one of my Inspirations since I started watching him years back. To hear what he had to go through made me cry. I must say that a person must have more than an immense amount of courage and bravery to speak so openly about what they've gone through, I have so so much respect for him and I wish him the best in the world. We love you Babish!
Wow... what an episode. What a compellingly beautiful episode. Hats off on this one guys, it takes a lot to be so open and vulnerable.
This was one of the best interviews I have ever seen. Thank you both.
Thank you for being so open, Andrew. I didn't expect to shed a tear watching this but I sure did. Stay strong anyone who's struggling out there, it'll get better, and sometimes it gets worse before it gets better
This really hit hard today. I lost my father when I was a child and that pain never really heals right. I just want to say thank you to Josh and Andrew and everyone else that has been a part of this. Just watching this episode and listening to everything they were saying was really tough but it gave me the good kind of tears that you need every once in a while. Like it helps to wash your soul of all the ick that tends to build up.
Damn, dude. I didn't know you went through all that! Love that you had a positive outcome. Love both of your guys' content!
Love Andrew to death. I’m so relieved he’s doing better. He’s inspired me so much in so many ways.
I love when Babish and Josh get together 🥰
This feels like two genuine friends catching up over dinner.
Damn Josh!! You are so good at getting people to share on this show.. Always met with some reluctance that is quickly broken through and everyone ends up pouring their hearts out.. My love to both of my cooking entertainment icons.. Such beautiful and real and important conversation..
It takes a lot of courage tot all about things like this, thank you Babish for being real and sharing your story!
