First time I’m watching an episode of No Reservations since and he’s just such a massive loss. Attitude of the right and heart of the left and you’d have to work to not see it’s not a coin flip.

Re: Anthony Bourdain
Just watched the 'Roadrunner' doc on CNN. (They had been advertising it for a few Sunday nights, but that pesky Russia/Ukraine war kept preempting it.) It's worth watching. As I've said before in many other threads, I care more about writers/directors than onscreen talent. But occasionally, I'm drawn to a face or a voice. With Bourdain, I get all of it. Man, I miss him.
Great soundtrack, by the way. A Television song early on. Then David Chang played Bourdain's favorite song, said that it was 'a junkie song' as they talked about Bourdain's heroin use. I knew the song, but didn't recognize it right away. No onscreen credit, so I had to look it up. The Brian Jonestown Massacre! Wow, that brings back memories.
A few musician cameos, including Allison Mosshart. She was in The Dead Weather, which featured Jack White on drums. I caught White's drumstick in Columbus with Bensell standing next to me. Yep, memories.

Old guy take, but I can not even come close to understanding why someone would cover their entire forearm with a caricature of a TV celebrity.
Or anyone for that matter.

Ordinarily I'd agree, but the fact they put a bowl of Pho in his hands makes it perfect.

Yeah, I sound like a crank.
I just can't imagine what it would be like if I had tattooed my hero back in the day and was now stuck looking at an 8 inch high Peter Gabriel or Thurman Thomas on my arm.

Love that it's got the noodle stall in the back. Bourdain once proclaimed that Vietnam was his favorite place to visit and Bún Bò Huế was the best 'soup' in the world.

I just tried to emphasize this post like I'm on a fucking group text and realize I may have reported you. I'm sorry. I hope the authorities are merciful.
In my defense, marijuana.
