"You're Not Special" is the hilarious, no-holds-barred podcast that serves up the juiciest stories from both sides of the kitchen door. Join Erin Loman Jeck, the high-flying CEO with a secret addiction to waiting tables, and the enigmatic Doctor Sizzle, a culinary genius by day and concert-going by night, as they dish out the drama that's made to order in the restaurant world. In each episode, we'll dive into the chaotic, dysfunctional family vibe of restaurant life, featuring outrageous customer requests, kitchen disasters turned triumphs, and staff interactions spicier than the daily special. Whether you're a seasoned industry pro or just love a good laugh with your meal, "You're Not Special" offers a balanced perspective on the wild world of restaurants. We'll bring you interviews with chefs, long-time servers, restaurant owners, and even the occasional health inspector for a taste of the unexpected. So pull up a chair and join us at the table where the menu is set, but the drama is made to order. Because what happens in the walk-in, doesn't stay in the walk-in – it becomes our next episode. Listen in, and remember: your weirdest customer is our next story.2024 Arte Comida y Vino

  • Spit, Sass, and Shenanigans: The ‘Waiting’ Review Nobody Asked For
    May 30 2025

    In this unfiltered tribute to Ryan Reynolds, bad tipping, and restaurant PTSD, Erin and Dr. Sizzle dive fork-first into the 2005 cult classic Waiting. Expect a full menu of spicy memories—from hungover brunch shifts and cigarette-stained bar sections, to dick games and the myth of “secret sauce.”

    They dish on:

    • Why 20-something servers are basically feral raccoons with drink tickets

    • The true horror of airplane seat "mystery moisture"

    • The magical powers of the angry waitress smile

    • Why kitchen crews would rather be vulgar than violent (choose your chaos)

    • Stanley Tucci's peasant food tour and why it sent Dr. Sizzle into a full-blown wrist-bracelet-fueled rage spiral

    • Bonus: A sneak peek into their upcoming “watch-along” series featuring kitchen-themed movies and shows—from culinary disasters to food network fails. Also, unsolicited shade at Guy Fieri. You're welcome.

    Come for the food movie breakdown, stay for the “did I pee myself or was that a spilled drink?” moment of self-reflection.

  • Ghosts, Parsley, and Passive-Aggressive Paper Towels: A Spiritual Sh*tshow in the Kitchen
    May 22 2025

    In this supernatural soup of absurdity, Erin, Pants, and Dr. Sizzle take a woo-woo detour into the world of haunted restaurants, ghostly dishwashers, and poltergeist-approved parsley sabotage. From bathroom paper towels that activate themselves mid-pee, to the Great Ghost of Jalapeños who may or may not hate bartenders, this episode has all the vibes of a séance... if the séance was hosted during brunch.

    You'll hear:

    • A haunted margarita tank room

    • A skeptic slowly unraveling

    • “The Learning Tube” meets “The Paranormal Mop Squad”

    • Why ghosts apparently hate fresh herbs

    • And the mystery of the possessed Hollandaise sauce

    🌀Bonus topics: vibrating shelves debunking ghost myths, emotional energy fields, and why John Legend has nothing to do with John Lennon (you’ll get it when you listen).

    🎧 It’s creepy, it’s hilarious, it’s weirdly heartwarming—and like any great ghost story, it ends with a skeptical chef being haunted by a Red Bull-powered paper towel dispenser.

    💀 Come for the hauntings, stay for the sass.

    You'll get insider dirt on:

    • A hotly contested Eggs Benedict disaster

    • The mysterious Dick Towel tradition

    • Who really should be banned from brunch forever

    • And the birth of the fake gay metal band: Heavy Bucket of Fruit

    Also featuring: microwave misuse, haunting boss laughs, and the world's most passive-aggressive Red Bull peace offering.
