Then, Max outlines what a test would look like to qualify as a food influencer in a perfect world, which Jordan attempts to take, and you may be surprised with the results.

Jordan asks Max for a reality check and wonders if he's entitled after a recent experience at a pizzeria featuring not enough ranch dressing, an ornery owner, and Diet Coke corkage that may explain it all. Then, the boys talk their recent meal at San Damian, the highly acclaimed Abbot Kinney Mexican seafood restaurant that demands all the salsas, better lighting, and less pineapple.

Jordan went to Sora Craft Kitchen for the first time and breaks it all down for Max, who was in Carmel with KB eating and drinking during a wedding weekend, and the fellas had to Zoom record this one, which pissed off one of them. Plus, notes for all navigation systems, an aphrodisiac town, and the future of Mad Food may be in peril after this one.

The fellas talk their recent time together in Las Vegas, LA Indian food options, Max possibly being a white devil, the famous punim effect, more Japanese vs. American toilet debating, Rick Caruso dream projects, consuming inside yurts, Jordan's Michael Jackson story, maybe there is pod tension, and all the new menu items at Chain's Westfield Topanga pop-up.

Jordan recounts a hellish caloric day where the daughter had a birthday party, his GLP-1 wore off, and way too much sushi, pizza, candy, and cake was in sight. Plus, marone vs. madone, Max finally ate a Dubai bar but never goes full chubby, disappointed nurses, and way too many pills.
