Last summer, something monumental happened. One of Uncuffed's founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last. Our work in prisons is supported by the California Arts Council, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, independent foundations, and donations from listeners like you.

Samuel Ashton is left to settle for London-based Greek food at GReat Grill, while Taylor enjoys the real thing in Athens. With his right hand man missing, the remaining half of Set Meals answers listener questions, including: why Old El Paso pulls on the nostalgia-strings, and why On The Continent's own James Horncastle is wrong about pineapple on pizza, as well as discovering Farringdon's best kept tzatziki covered secret.

Sticky Ribs, Duck Fajitas, Americana: A regrettable visit to T.G.I Friday's 22:30

22:30

Rounding up Season 3 in ... style, Sam and Taylor opt out of a tour of London's hippest taco spots and instead revel in nostalgia and all things Americana. T.G.I Friday's is a rite of passage for many teenagers, but why do people continue to visit the establishment past-puberty? Is the food amazing? Are the cocktails out of this world? Are the servers world class? The answer to all the above is no. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices…

Officially back in London town and hot off their appearance on Apple Podcasts' carousel, Taylor and Sam return to the Set Meals studio. An anniversary dinner sees Taylor recounting his experience at Columbia Road's 'Brawn', as well as some questionable decisions in a festive North London cafe. Meanwhile, Sam's trip to 'Four Legs' makes the boy's joint effort to move plan-based all the more tricky. Speaking of plant-based, this week's restaurant section pits Neil Rankin's Brick Lane-based 'Simplicity Burger' against New York's much-famed 'Superioirty Burger' - coincidence? The boys think not.

Sam and Taylor celebrate the end of summer at Loyle Carner’s ‘Chilli Con Carner’ cooking school fund-raising BBQ. This comes just days after a Sunday evening supper club feast, one that rendered Sam “unable to function”. The boys also take some time out to visit Sweet Chick, the much-famed and Nas-backed US comfort food restaurant. They sit down with founder John Seymour and, in highly predictable fashion, order too much of everything. --- Sam Ashton Taylor Fawcett Sweet Chick London John Seymour Mikey Krzyzanowski Chilli Con Carner ADHD Cooking School Kelly Pochyba See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
