We have some expensive knives that are dull as hell. It is aggravating knowing how much they cost and that when they’re dull they might as well be tossed in the shitcan because they’re virtually useless.

Bring them to a knife sharpener and besides being a pain in the ass, it’s fairly costly.

Enter the cheap and easy to use and super effective “Sharp N Easy” knife sharpener. Under $10. Four passes on the coarse side and four passes on the fine side and your dull-ass knife is razor sharp. Check out the demonstration where I go with the before and after cutting the paper. Before sharpening it would bounce off the paper. After eight total passes it sliced right through.

You are literally an idiot not to buy one and keep it in your knife drawer

Eric Lorden from Passports told me about this about six years ago and I didn’t act. So now I’m pissed off at myself for going all these years with expensive dull knives when I could have always had sharp knives for hardly money.

Here’s the link to purchase

If you haven’t had the pork chop with vinegar peppers just trust me on this one.

Order it. Bring it home. Eat it. Thank me later.

Here are the updates from this past week’s podcasts. These first time Gloucestercasters (“virgin podcasters”) are asked what sub they would order if on death row. They are also asked what would their last restaurant meal be. Here are this week’s answers to those searing, thought-provoking questions……. thanks to everyone for participating!

Here’s the previous week’s list for reference, because who doesn’t want to reference last week’s answers?

We stopped briefly at Pebble Beach recently to soak in some of the relaxing sights and sounds of the waves and the gulls. Except to take these pictures, we stayed in the car to ensure social distancing. We had been out and about looking for potential blog material and we stayed just a short time. But it was long enough for a driver passing by to shout a suggestion that we “go back to f***ing New York”. So much for humanity and understanding on this person’s part. For myself, I hope I always remember how isolation has felt. I hope I always remember to reserve judgement as we don’t know the other person’s story. And I hope I’m never heard shouting the F word in public………

So  here’s some actual relaxation I do hope to remember and repeat.
