In an industry where celebrity chefs are known as much for their salty talk and quick tempers as their food, Eric Ripert stands out. The winner of four James Beard Awards, co-owner and chef of a world-renowned restaurant, and recipient of countless Michelin stars, Ripert embodies elegance and culinary perfection. But before the accolades, before he even knew how to make a proper hollandaise sauce, Eric Ripert was a lonely young boy in the south of France whose life was falling apart.

From his rapid-fire stand-up comedy riffs to his breakout role in Mork & Mindy and his Academy Award-winning performance in Good Will Hunting, Robin Williams was a singularly innovative and beloved entertainer. He often came across as a man possessed, holding forth on culture and politics while mixing in personal revelations - all with mercurial, tongue-twisting intensity as he inhabited and shed one character after another with lightning speed. But as Dave Itzkoff shows in this revelatory biography, Williams’ comic brilliance masked a deep well of conflicting emotions and self-doubt.

pirate vs. chef
my morning routine consisted of "funny Tony" Dora,Team Umizumi and The Sopranos. my daughter preferred "Funny Tony". She hates anything with a trademark (except KFC Mac n cheese ) and can make Chinese dumplings and roll sushi better than I can. I love the fact that one of my baby girls idols is Anthony Bourdain

Typical Anthony Bourdain
I love to read, watch and listen to Anthony Bourdain so I found it great to listen to. Just a quick 3 minutes and there wasn't much to it but the Chef is interesting and speaks in a gritty and real manner about his trade.
