In this episode, we kick off by pulling back the curtain on restaurant technology and cinematic sequels. Sean breaks down the "infuriating" experience of launching the Toast POS system, detailing the hidden "a la carte" costs—from QuickBooks integration to Google review plugins—that make a powerful system feel like a subscription trap.

Then, we dive into a $1.29 Goodwill find: Still Waiting..., the 2009 sequel to the cult classic Waiting.... We discuss whether it captures the true stress of the industry or if it's just a "boner jam" overloaded with outdated sex jokes. Finally, we put our palates to the test with a blind lemon pepper "cutting," including a homemade recipe generated by Gemini AI that didn't quite hit the mark.
