Over a decade ago I read Kitchen Confidential & then fell into his first show No Reservations & was hooked ever since. Hard to say how many hours I spent on the couch watching him travel the world with an enviably kind curiosity, compassion & decency… (but enough to have earned at least 3 MBAs from U of Phoenix or built like 20 tiny ships in bottles by now… It was a lot.).

There’s been much in the news regarding his former girlfriend but that didn’t cross my mind at all watching the trailer. Hearing his voice & seeing him smiling on screen & doing what he did best made me happy and then pretty damn sad. I know I’m not the only one here at Barstool who was effected by his death, but also inspired by his life. The final season premieres this Sunday (9/23) at 9pm on CNN and I hope it does him justice.
