Pero Let Me Tell You
Ep 361.5 Pero…Hanguiando (again!) with Chef Chris Valdes
Damn, can’t believe it’s been that long since he was on the show…learn to say ‘no’ more often…if a Chef friend says ‘come get food’ you go get the food…a few drinks in and we share some fun secrets…the man knows how to throw a helluva party…approaching life with purpose is always a good idea…realizing you need a break can come when you least expect it…preparing lets you be spontaneous later…two viral moments is just too crazy…remind people about our culture…heightened versions can still be authentic…coquito tres leches? Yes please…Ish just doesn’t have a refined palette…sometimes mistakes create delicious…love us a mom who digs the liquor…success breeds success
Theme Song: Pero Let Me Freestyle, composed by Michael Angelo Lomlplex - the Official Gay Guy
