**Bonus Content - Joey Jaws Chestnut** Jul 05, 2023

Show notes

(Originally aired July 20, 2010)

Since we are only a day removed from the annual 4th of July hot dog Eating Contest, I wanted to re-launch this segment. Back in 2010 - Before he gained "Superstar" status as the worlds most prolific competitive eater, I interviewed Joey Chestnut on this show during the "After Dark Segment". If you ever wanted an inside look at what goes on as Joey trains for this event, you will want to check this old segment out!!

ENJOY!!

Show notes

(Aired Live on June 27, 2023 - Hour Two)

9:14pm - The popular but "rarely happens" open segment drops in to lead off the show tonight. There are plenty of house keeping items to get through. The biggest topic being the show itself. The month of July will be a month unlike any other in show history. I will talk more about that tonight as well as some other items that have been needing addressed over the past few months.

9:35pm - After me, our monthly pal Derrick Riches stops by for his regular visit. We missed Derrick last month because I had a guest that needed his spot. He was gracious enough to side step and tonight we get caught up on the most controversial post he has ever authored in his professional career...what is it??

Bad Byron Debuts On The Show & Daniel Vaughn Remembers A Texas BBQ Game Changer! Jun 22, 2023

Show notes

10:14 - Last week we had Sweet Baby Ray (Dave Raymond) on the show and this week we continue the 2023 BBQ HOF interviews with the man many consider to be the godfather of the BBQ rub game, Byron Chism from Butt Rub (dot com)! There is certainly more to Byron's life than a 20 segment will allow, however, we will dig into some of his unique background experiences, talk a bit about the rub business and see what getting into the BBQ HOF means to him! I look forward to this conversation along with many more in the future.

10:35pm - Coming out of the bullpen tonight is quarterly guest, Texas Monthly BBQ Editor, book author and Wooster, OH transplant Daniel Vaughn! Tonight we talk about the passing of 2 Texas BBQ folks who were influential in their own respects over the past 2 weeks. We will also discuss consistency in BBQ, how to beat the BBQ lines at Texas restaurants and much more!
