[Amuse Bouche] Boiling Point | Season 1 Episode 2, 4 March 1999
2026/10/04
We're **baaaa-aaaack** at the beginning!
It's a Peach only episode this month as we head back in time to 1999 for the second episode of Gordon's first ever TV series: 'Boiling Point'.
This week we get deep into the weeds, picking apart how this early Gordon tracks with his contemporary incarnation. (And we marvel at how Peach can spend 50 minutes speaking about a 22 minute episode of TV!)

The Black Pearl, Part 2 | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 2 Episode 5, 25 September 2008
2026/09/06
The episode so dense, poorly structured, and rich in content that it took Peach and Shag over 2 hours to discuss!
This week we hear our hosts give a dramatic performance of an argument between Gordon and David, all while grappling with the ethics of a skilltester lobster tank.
(It makes for a thrilling recovery from what Peach explosively describes as his least favourite Nightmare Method last month (!))

The Black Pearl, Part 1 | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 2 Episode 5, 25 September 2008
2026/08/02
BOOO! We hate David! We hate two part episodes!
This month Peach and Shag get into the weeds with an iconic episode of the US show. (This episode deals with only the first 15 minutes or so!)
Come argue about whether David looks more like a fat Roy Orbison, or Donald Trump doing an Elizabeth Taylor impression!

The Walnut Tree Inn | 'Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares' Season 1 Episode 3, 11 May 2004
2026/07/05
Is this the Gordon of our dreams?
After a year or two of doom and gloom about contemporary Gordon, please join us for the palate-cleansing adventure: we go back to the first season of the whole TKN project and realise that Young Gordon is amazing and - ironically - seems the least likely person to ever sell out.
Plus: there's a Michelin star in the mix *and* we get to witness Gordon giving a number of job interviews (!)

Classic American | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 2 Episode 2, 28 January 2011
2026/05/31
What's up, Nightmare Meth-heads!?!
An episode with perhaps the nicest case members we have ever met this month - it's the heartbreaking tale of Colleen and Naomi who were (surely?) tricked into buying an overpriced restaurant from their (awful?) former boss.
Please join us as two Australian hosts try to understand: the difference between Long Island and Staten Island, why Gordon is obsessed with burgers even though he doesn't know how to eat them, and how much of a bummer it must be for Gordon to make this show.

J Willy's | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 2 Episode 6, 30 October 2008
2026/05/03
OK!
We finally meet Rick, our villain who is as pathetic and small-minded as he is sleep-deprived. And we get a Gordon stunt to trump all Gordon stunts as he plays a priest and takes confession in a Catholic church (?)
Luckily, though, all the things that go wrong are 100% John's fault...

Anna Vincenzo's | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 3 Episode 9, 26 March 2010
2026/04/05
How is Kitchen Nightmares like the Simpsons?
Is Cece actually the misunderstood hero of this episode?
Is Michael the most disappointing spouse we have seen since Sebastian?
Can Peach and Shag recover from not recording the first 30 minutes of the episode? (YES!)

[Amuse Bouche] Being Gordon Ramsay, Season 1 Episode 1, 18 February 2026
2026/03/01
Some new Gordon content! It's the new Netflix series 'Being Gordon Ramsay'.
The Gordon business Leviathan turns its eye towards 22 Bishopsgate - a soon to be iconic London location with a few Gordon Ramsay branded restaurants chucked on top.
Gordon urges us to believe he is laying it all on the line for this one. But, of course, there are no stakes at all - only opportunities to wonder at how Gordon has so many (so many!) children and so little understanding of what makes a good cup of coffee...

Hot Potato Cafe | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 3 Episode 1, 29 January 2010
2026/02/01
How the *Spuddy Hell* are ya?
This month, Peach and Shag negotiate their way around Philadelphia accents, once and for all draw a line between the UK and USA episodes, and reflect on the most bizarre Gordon Final Line ever.
So please come and have a listen to the Podcast of Brotherly Love!

[Amuse Bouche] Boiling Point | Season 1 Episode 1, 25 February 1999
2026/01/04
It's a solo Peach episode! (But it's not Shag's fault! Peach is overseas and recorded this one before his departure.)
This episode we go back to the very start - Gordon's first starring role in a reality TV series. It's a chance to reflect on how far (or how not far?) our host has come in his approach to (i) people of marginalised genders, (ii) fat-shaming, (iii) racism against the French, and (iv) shareholder dispute litigation.
Please join us as we go back to the start!

Nino's | 'Kitchen Nightmares' Season 6 Episode 10, 22 February 2013
2025/11/30
This one was so not a Peach's Pick, but Shag's insights revealed its majesty as we worked through it.
One of the drearier American episodes is saved by Gordon's incredible confrontations with Gordon. Gordon is all hostility. Nino is all non sequitur. And we love it.
(And spoiler: Michael was the bad guy all along.)
Now say it with us: "IIIIIIIII'm NINO!"

The Granary, Part 2 | 'Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares' Season 5, Episode 8, 18 December 2007
2025/11/02
And so we return for the second have of another of Peach's Picks!
We return to Hampshire, a county filled with swimming pools and (as we come to learn thrillingly!) Fat Idiots.
This episode is so dense it required a two parter, and we are so proud to share this conclusion with you.

The Granary, Part 1 | 'Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares' Season 5, Episode 8, 18 December 2007
2025/10/05
And so we return to England and return to another one of Peach's Picks!
We enter the world of Hampshire, a county so rich that (as Gordon observes) they are awash with swimming pools, to visit The Granary.
This episode is so dense it required a two parter, and it contains two of Peach and Shag's Gordon insults.
Just don't forget to invite Gordon to the launch of your next dining club, and please join us again for another episode of The Nightmare Method.

Amy's Baking Company, Part 2 | Season 6, Episode 16, 10 May 2013
2025/08/31
The second part of a two parter on 'Kitchen Nightmares' final boss: Amy's Baking Company.
It's an iconic episode of the TV show. It's the episode that Shag shows anyone who's never seen the show before. It's the episode with Peach's favourite Gordon performance.
It's the episode so nice Peach and Shag had to cover it twice!
So let's get into it...

Amy's Baking Company, Part 1 | Season 6, Episode 16, 10 May 2013
2025/08/03
The first part of a two parter on 'Kitchen Nightmares' final boss: Amy's Baking Company.
It's an iconic episode of the TV show. Indeed, it's one of the most iconic episodes of reality TV of any kind, ever. This week Peach and Shag take the slow boil approach, spending over an hour working through just the first 20 minutes of the episode.
As we learn: there's a lot going on! So let's get into it...
