Dave tries his hand at a Greek dish, avgolemono, and turns it into 3 dishes for a surprise drop-in guest, chef-owner of BIANCO restaurants, Chris Bianco.

They talk about pressure cookers, the ultimate Italian soups, and lemon-forward food, amongst other topics.

Dave finishes with an idea to take this dish from Greece to another country in a future episode.

Dave makes Jamaican oxtails and "Chicken 66," an amalgamation of Chicken 65 and chilli chicken, for two smart guests: Lester Nare and physicist Krishna Choudhary, cohosts of one of his favorite podcasts, From First Principles.

They talk about how they began their journeys in science, formed a friendship, and found a podcast format that works for both them and the layperson listener.

They also discuss why science is important overall, Dave's unified theory of deliciousness, fresh spices versus ground, and, of course, MSG.
