Another Chef's Table here. The OG Ep 25 was a bust because we messed up the recording. Chef went at this one alone real quick to catch up. We'll release the tapes when they release the files. smh 2025 sucks

We start with a Graduation recap. It was a blast. Great party. We talk about some homeschool Senior Year and HS tips as part of this.
Chef makes it all sad when he talks about the Faculty of the Year Award, which Smokey won.

ReviewEd Segment
Chef talks about two movies he would never force Rose to watch, and he recommends you don't either: A Family Affair (the Lifetime one) and Woman in the Yard.

We got this one in the can over two months ago. Finally edited and published. It's been wild here.

Chef jumps in right away with a new segment: Chef's Table. First course: an update on the delay and what we've been doing.

6:16
We're back into normal programming. It's a homeschool and family heavy ep. Lots of updates on what Rose is doing as a homeschool student winding up her senior year.

We've got one more ep in the can, this one a review from the graduation. Then Rose will be back in town for a few months.

Thanks for all your support!

We have got to stop this, but we accidentally did another helpful episode.
Luckily, to make sure we don't actually get any listeners, Chef immediately derails us with a flagrantly inappropriate joke.

3:46
We're back on track: a helpful Social Studies segment that talks about the day of SAT taking for a homeschool kid. Previous eps have helped us register and walked through do's and don'ts of test prep, in this section we literally walk (sometimes run) through what to expect the day of.

11:42
A second Social Studies segment. This time, we look at one aspect of education that is stress-testing the very idea of public school as we've known it for decades: AI.
We go granular here, with a story from Rose's friend who was wrongly accused of using AI to write her end of year paper, whilst her friends who actually used AI got away scot free. She had to redo her paper under 1 to 1 supervision like Hannibal Lecter while her AI using friends were already done for the year.

Chef triples down on the tip out.
Odd Pieces Puzzles is our first. Best Puzzles Ever. Malaysian American owned. LOVE LOVE LOVE Odd Pieces. Rose chimes in with Learn SAT Math, a great Youtube test prep channel.
Got chef thinking about Goofy Chess and Chess with Durks: two more great Youtube style content producers who make amazing chess vids.
