EP 52 - KITCHEN NIGHTMARES: BURGER KITCHEN with Jay Hunter

Author: Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello June 30, 2020 Duration: 53:56

Jay Hunter is a grand cinematic mind who directed over 50 episodes of KITCHEN NIGHTMARES starring Gordon Ramsay. Today, Jay shares his feelings for the show and spills some dirty (seriously, dirty) secrets about the behind-the-scene action, specifically regarding the famous episode "Burger Kitchen".

Is Kitchen Nightmares fake like many other reality shows? Is Gordon Ramsay actually mean? And what did the famous chef think of this podcast's host Sasha Feiler's borscht (hot, of course)? Listen to find out.

Note: this is a two-parter. Join us in two weeks to hear Jay discuss episodes "Oceana" and "Amy's Baking Company."

Download co-host Joe Cabello's graphic novel "Robot. Black Belt. Champion" for free. Give your hands another wash. Watch RAMY on Hulu, it's really good.

Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello have been making each other laugh since they first met waiting for an improv show, a friendship forged in the crucible of wildly inappropriate comedy. Their shared history-a blur of pets and increasingly bizarre private references-is the foundation for Shut Up I Love It, a podcast that feels like crashing the best, most rambling conversation after the main event. Each episode builds from an interview with a guest, but it rarely stays on any prescribed rails for long. What you’ll hear is the natural, often hilarious detour that happens when two sharp-witted friends with deep improv roots start riffing, pulling the discussion toward personal obsessions, unexpected tangents, and genuine curiosity. The show digs into the stuff they love, from film and television to broader cultural oddities, filtered through a lens of comedic review and spontaneous creation. It’s less a formal interview and more a collaborative, chaotic exploration, where the guest becomes a co-conspirator in the fun. Listening to this podcast means getting a front-row seat to the kind of authentic, meandering, and deeply funny talk that only happens between people who have known each other for ages, where an inside joke is never more than a few sentences away and enthusiasm is the only required currency.
