Binging With Babish Eats His Last Meal

I just got to give my dad his last meal. I was sitting in the hospital with my dad, his doctor came in and told him he had a few hours, maybe days left. Afterword the staff came in and left his dinner, it was meatloaf and carrots. I asked him if he wanted that for dinner and he said no. He wanted ice cream and caramel corn. So I jumped up and got him ice cream and caramel corn from the nearest grocery store. He enjoyed his dinner and he was gone the next morning. I'm glad he got to have the dinner he wanted.

“I am happy, but later I won’t be, and later I will be again” Boy if that isn’t the truest statement I’ve ver heard. Wonderful interview.

"Pollo-amorous" was the chicken joke they were looking for

As a victim of SA myself, I really, really appreciated Andrew's honesty and openness here. I almost didn't watch after the warning at the beginning but am glad I persisted. It messes with you in so many ways that can take years to unpack, and TBH, some aspects of the trauma never really do go away, at least from my experience. But there is hope on the other side, and it's inspiring to see how much Andrew has found tools to help heal! I doubt you'll see this, Andrew, but please know how much this was appreciated (and I'm admittedly not even a regular watcher of your show). ❤

Andrew is a hero for getting through that story while sipping coffee knowing the bourbon was up next.

As a 35 year old man with many issues hidden, I would have never guessed that I would be crying like a child watching a cooking show. I could listen these 2 for hours. They are the celebrities that let me know I'm not alone

As someone who is a huge. HUGE fan (own the cookbooks) of Andrew and binging with babish, I had wondered where he went for the last year. I am in absolute tears over this story. I am so proud of you, Andrew and I am so thankful you exist and you’re persisting. I am. So so sorry. You deserve so much more and so much better from life. Thank you for sharing and trusting your audience with this.

I had no idea Andrew went through all that in the last several years. He's so brave and amazing for sharing his story. I'm so proud of him and I hope he is really doing well and continues to do whats best for himself.

Can Josh and Andrew start like a once a month podcast or something? There's clearly so much love, respect, and mutual admiration between these two who both have so much more depth and humor and empathy than most would otherwise know. This was easily my favorite episode of Last Meal's to date. Thank you to Andrew for sharing his story, and thank you to Josh for sharing his. When we talk about the difficult things we have faced in our past, it helps remove the stigma surrounding mental health, and it allows others who may be walking that same path to have some foot prints they can follow to find daylight again.

Maple syrup over snow... Babby, your honorary Canadian citizenship is in the mail.

“Go easy on yourself. The voice in your head wants to tell you that you are nothing that you should be. And in fact, you are everything you are supposed to be.” This brought me to tears. I have always said to myself that nothing that anybody says to me could be worse than what I say to myself, because at the end of the day the person who hates me the most is myself. It’s to the point I can’t even look at myself in the mirror most days and just constantly beat myself up. But just hearing those words brings me a moment of relief. A reassurance that everything that I think is wrong with myself, that I hate, that I think I should change to make myself or someone else happy, that it should be this or that, is actually ok. Thank you.

So i'm having a really hard time at the moment, and having Andrew look directly into the camera and say "you're everything that you're supposed to be" really resonated with me and had me bursting into tears out of nowhere. Last Meals is such a wonderful series and I wasn't expecting to weep into my coffee this morning, but I'm grateful that it happened. Thank you so much

I never realized how much depth this man has. All the respect in the world for him, what he does and what he’s been through.

The inhale, stare, cadence and his "Last Words" hit me like a truck. I hope he, and everybody including myself find happiness in our days. Everyday or even just some days.

“I am happy, later i won’t be and later I will be again” hit me rlly hard. I was diagnosed with MDD when I was 16 and knowing that you will always have that back and forth is scary but the way he words it was so beautiful and encouraging to me. Andrew truly has made me feel so seen

if someone wants to get the maple toffee right; you have to bring the maple syrup to a boiling point so it's less watery and the shock with the freezing snow turns it into a lollipop almost instantly.

If Hot Ones can get a TV spot. THIS definitely deserves one. Better interviews then anything else on TV

I feel like the caring and empathy his audience have for him is Andrew's reward for being so open and caring and thoughful in his videos. And entertaining as hell.

this is a genuinely unreal episode, josh and andrew have knocked this out of the park. incredibly touching and profound

I love how sentimental these dishes are for Andrew. I’ve been watching his channel for years and love this interview and his relationship with Josh.
