Best Friends From When I was Poor: Tom Segura and Roy Choi | Something's Burning | S3 E16

My best friend, Tom Segura, and I stop by Roy Choi’s Las Vegas restaurant - Best Friends - to reminisce about the old times… and indulge in his Korean Fusion food. We’re talking Sticky Icky Ribs, Cubano sandwiches, and of course… the thing that started it all - the Kogi Taco. And, it’s not just tastes from his fancy joint. We’re also eating what’s available at the Chef Truck within Park MGM. | Something’s Burning | S3 E16

When Bert actually lets Tom finish his story, he turns and gives a thumbs up to the camera like he is waiting for someone to give him a gold star for using good manners.

[@XxPermaGrinxX]

Gotta reinforce good behavior with treats! He's a perpetual puppy.

@ 13:26 if anyone missed it.

It’s hard to tell if this is serious or a joke

[@ChrisMcClain2011]

This is the best episode of something’s burning. Roy needs to fill in on 2 bears every now and then. He’s a great communicator.

[@CharlesSimmons-y8j]

cookie cutter

[@rjrulz327]

Man I felt that when he said food network used to be good. Growing up I would go to sleep to good eats every night. The old food network was fire. Also those Comedy Central adds at 2 am. Hot fire.

[@sonyapurkovic405]

Straight up, Good Eats followed by Unwrapped with Mark Summers (sp?). I have a young son and he is currently obsessed with Good Eats and calls it mama’s show. When my mom and I were posted overseas my dad would tape it for me and bring a stack of dvds

[@christinaburgarino20109]

As a chef, I felt Bert’s comments about feeding his kids and friends as a dream. But my son is gtube fed. Happiest kid in the world, but my selfish ass , it breaks my heart that I can’t feed him amazing foods and have those experiences. We can only cook so much together. It breaks my heart when he can smell the food cooking, is able to say “yum!”, but he’s not able to eat it. Sorry for the rant, GREAT EPISODE!❤❤❤❤

[@thatJoshieJosh]

Just need to say, I far prefer this format of Bert and Tom just being their sweet selves to each other rather than playing up the being mean to each other for comedy sake. For me the most entertaining part of any of Bert's stufd is just him vibing with his friends. And we get a bonus LeeAnne to boot, even better!

[@KrispyCREAME805]

What a great episode. Lee-anne joining when they were reminising was the cherry on top. it turned the convo from 3 dudes talking about the past times to a legit 3d Environment in my head, with a story. obviously Tom is god teir as a guest, but roy is so genuine and authentic and blessed and clearly a hard worker. loved this one. Wish i could go eat at the resturant

[@vb-ly2yx]

lol Tom catching him saying the servants cook for him infront of that cook was hilarious!

[@CharlesSimmons-y8j]

only and ego maniac would even think to say that

[@Alexb-xn3mi]

This as my favorite episode of something is burning and the three of you guys together talking was the best part great episode my favorite one by far

[@davidboatman8838]

Berts lost so much weight, good for him.

[@Dahk]

Maybe he’ll break the mould, usually fat people get less funny when they lose weight. Maybe Bert will actually start to be funny when he loses weight

[@johnmillay6790]

Cant die while promoting an alcohol, bad for business

[@bill-or-somthingbill4390]

Good to see Bart recovering from his diabetes so quickly

[@charityrhoadestozer2056]

Duh bro he is on ozempic.

[@zionmoore2724]

He doesn't have diabetes

[@notagiantseaslug5523]

His fake foot looks really real! What a time to be alive!

[@gregorybarnard5593]

He's got another couple surgeries coming up and the liver transplant

[@inabropriate8438]

The way Bert fed Leeann was adorable

[@jeffblack6803]

Yes. Despite with all the haters say he actually loves his wife and daughters.

[@brandonlantier]

This is way overdue, good to see Roy again!

[@Nadine-zu3js]

Roy Choi is the best! Happy to see him on here 🔥

[@holden8698]

This is episode is probably the best one, just three friends reminiscing. Absolute gold.

[@winglessrayven4294]

It's so cool that they were all broke friends, the friends you make while poor are the friends you keep for life.

[@jayleomac]

Cool same stories over and over again awesome podcast

[@jazzyfizzle0]

Bert: “your skinny and you love food !😱” Bert’s problem is not food , it’s general Gluttony

[@henryfrazier3046]

I think the girl he was with for 4 years fucked his childhood best friend while he was in Russia, and then gave him the clap when he got home and it really fucked him up and he's been drinking/eating his feeling every since

[@notagiantseaslug5523]

No. Alcohol. It’s alcohol.

[@susanfox-mx3nv]

Bert and Tom together with Leann and another friend - so fine. The only thing they need is an emu and a cabin. I wish Bert would do another cabin or three or four. Said show was silly, but it was also up lifting. I do like Something's Burning, but I'm just saying. Cheers & Blessings

[@steve-no4gi]

Bert. Tom von Normand lee. Dream video 😊❤

[@AncientMemories-gx2hb]

"I wonder how we can franchise you (Roy)". He could sell courses on how to run a successful food truck/restaurant. Or start a cooking KZbin channel! Option 1: He shows you, the viewer, how to cook something, food network style. Option 2: He hosts an interview type cooking podcast.

[@mcmurch]

The shot at 39:26 is crazy. Play it at the slowest speed. The meat seems to move up and down really quickly.

[@carlosquintanilla968]

Por means By Para means For, just wanted to throw that out there so the correct translation is "Por Osos"-"By Bears"

[@BrothaB910]

Wild how many people still watch them just to shit on them weekly in the comments

[@AmandaBurns14]

I agree. The hating trolls have been in the comments like crazy lately. Whenever I don't like something, I just don't watch it. 🤷🏼‍♀️ So far, I'm enjoying the episode, and not complaining about, "Oh, they've never been poor like I have/am - grrr 🤬 These guys just don't get it." Bunch of chom0s

[@chilloutdude3617]

@@AmandaBurns14 Imagine what kind of person chooses to forgo content that pleases them to watch something they hate. And then complain endlessly about how much they don't like it. Sadomasochistic of sorts.

[@awesomebeast7509]

@@chilloutdude3617I don’t hate it. I like watching his guest get grossed out while he cooks them semi inedible meals and seeing their faces as they watch him scratch his crack and hairy body is the best part. This show is like soft torture to his guest and I’m all here for it. Need to change the format back

[@justrobdmv8385]

Dude, its everywhere on every podcast. It's so f***ing weird.

[@chilloutdude3617]

@@justrobdmv8385 Beyond weird, They seem cult-like. Also, The idea that comedy is subjective always eludes them. They always say things like "he's not funny" as if they are arbiters of what is or isn't funny for the masses. Delusional

[@calleahlzen8213]

Love this format of Somethings Burning, background, vibe etc.

Tom calling Nikkei style sushi Mexican and having to be corrected by Roy that its actually Peruvian, while being Peruvian himself is insane. Roy knew what he was doing saying the name makes more sense as a tequila name. I like this guy.
