Dave preps two fairly unfamiliar dishes for an upcoming shoot: a conch salad and makes kartoffelklösse, German potato dumplings. 
He learns on the job as he makes these, as well as talks about the dark art of sandbagging, why a food mill is superior to a ricer, and a recent sleep issue.
Dave also remembers that he's making the potato dumplings for TV, so he makes some adjustments once he realizes they're not for immediate consumption...

Dave is at the Masters again, but this time a mystery is afoot. Dave and Chris Ying talk through potential solutions to the case, and decide on one not to Dave's liking.
What is to Dave's liking is the food at the Masters, as well as how screen-free the experience it is. With no phones allowed, it's one of the few places where everyone is truly in the moment.
They close with an Ask Dave regarding learning about those who had big impacts on modern cuisine, as well as a MOIF about when to pack.

Dave has his friend, ESPN NFL analyst Mina Kimes, on the show, and he makes one of her favorite dishes in Los Angeles, a schnitzel...but with an even more L.A. twist: making it gluten-free.
He also prepares an accompanying lemon purée and chicken soup, as well as some cabbage for a tonkatsu-esque twist.
The duo talks about their disparate celebrity game show experiences, their shared and differing Korean traits, as well as parenting and allergies. 
To close, they discuss a little football over an impromptu milkshake attempt.

Dave wasn't thrilled with the results of his last take on schnitzel with a salsa-seca crust, so it's time to revise. 
This time, Dave takes schnitzel inspired by a Los Angeles restaurant and makes it even more Los Angeles-inspired by making it gluten-free.
He also makes a delicious lemon puree as a pairing, as well as crispy cabbage, as one might see with a tonkatsu. Dave makes a bulldog sauce as well. 
Let's see if this version is up to Dave's standards and is ready to be served to our upcoming guest, Mina Kimes.

It's a steaming hot day, but Dave makes a celebratory dish of tteok mandu guk, a Korean rice cake and dumpling soup, for his guest, singer and actor Eric Nam.
They discuss being Korean American today and how much has changed since they were young, their Korean language proficiency, and, of course, Eric's recent stint on Traitors.
Dave and Eric talk about their favorite Korean foods, how great banchan is, and why the dishes of gimbap and hoe might take off in the future.

Dave cooks a protein-focused dish for a "master of meat": actor, comedian, & host Joel McHale...but Dave doesn't cook red meat like Joel may be used to.

After having some of Dave's delicious Wu's Garden-inspired braised tofu, Joel hops (literally) into the kitchen to make a gorgeous Miyazaki A5 wagyu steak.

Amongst the cooking, Dave and Joel debate how often you should eat meat, talk about getting older and their health, and reveal why some people call Joel's home "Crazy House" (Hint: Joel likes knives. A lot.).
