## Resource

Jordan and Max review the recently released 50 Best Restaurants in North America, Komal's glowing New York Times review, this week in buffoonish food influencer behavior, tier two cities, Fat & Flour closing a location, dream pod guests, and Jordo being a dud in public. Plus, Max ate a shocking amount of dessert, GLP-1 symptoms, a fancy Summer BBQ, the Bruce pop-up opportunity, and a non-Jumbo Time wine situation abroad.
