Who has time to learn a new hobby? My guests certainly don't. They're too busy being successful/famous/cool.
On Let Us Cook, I spend one month learning something they've always wanted to try, but haven't. My hope is to convince them to finally give it a go.
Chef Kevin faces his greatest challenge yet: cooking.

Improviser and actor Zac Oyama (Dropout, Dimension 20) is ready for a change of pace in life. But a recurring hurdle has stopped his attempts to get into running thus far.

See for yourself on the second episode of Let Us Cook.

Chess with Mike Mitchell
Who has time to learn a new hobby? My guests certainly don't. They're too busy being successful/famous/cool.
On Let Us Cook, I spend one month learning something they've always wanted to try, but haven't. My hope is to convince them to finally give it a go.
For the first episode, I talk to Mike Mitchell about a game he thinks people would be pleasantly surprised to know he could play.
