"I woke up at 545. I didn't want to punish myself for not getting out of bed," he said. "So that was another thing is like I was going to be okay to slowly get out of bed." The author has been taking an ice bath in the morning as a form of biohacking, but says he doesn't have the courage or mental fortitude to go down that road. He's also trying to keep his mind busy with writing and other creative projects.
Dave recounts all the amazing things he ate in Mexico City, including one of the best last courses he’s ever eaten at Pujol and the timeless excellence of Contramar. Then Dave and Chris introduce a couple of new segments, "Theoretical Dinner Party," in which they draft aging rock stars to eat dinner with, and "Culinary Arbitrage," in which they dissect the value of live shellfish and New York City sushi. Other topics include white lying to your friends, the importance of colonoscopies, ice baths in the morning, the benefits of routine, and spot prawns vs. lobster.
