The Pirate Ship Podcast with Tom Kerridge and Chris Stark

Fire, Knives and Battlefield Promotion

Here we go! The start of The Pirate Ship Podcast! Vernon Kay is our very first guest. He chats about his time working in a banana ripening factory in Bolton. Two fussy eaters try food they have never tried before. And Chris introduces Tom to the wonders of a lasagne toastie.

FIRST JOBS This week, it’s all about first jobs as Chris grills Tom on how he started his career. We hear about the buzz and energy Tom felt working in a kitchen for the first time at 18. The drama of ‘battlefield promotion’ and where exactly would Chris start work in his kitchen today?

GUEST - VERNON KAY Vernon Kay drops by for a chat with the guys and reveals his first ever job was in a banana ripening factory in Bolton! Our fussy eater challenge sees two incredibly picky eaters take a bite out of something for the very first time. Joe tries avocado on toast and Ben tackles a Chilli Heatwave Dorito. Are they going to love it or hate it though?

TOASTIES Chris is on a mission to make toasties great again. This week he convinces Tom that a lasagne toastie is one of the best fillings out there. We're going to be raising a toastie every week. Can you do better than Chris’ filling? Get in touch!

COCKTAILS Best way to finish a podcast? With a cocktail, of course! Lucky, Head Barman at Tom’s Michelin starred restaurant The Hand and Flowers, Fro, is on hand. This week, Franky in Bucks is looking for the perfect cocktail to serve at her Euros 2021 party this summer.
