    So that's why we had to wait a while for this episode. YSAC had to wait for the potato birds to come around. That's why you should always check the potato forecast to make sure, what farming method is best in a given season.

      Dude so I found this channel almost 3 years ago during a crack cocaine/alcohol binge after making my own independent decision to get sober in 2018. It was actually right as the first reports of covid were happening but before we knew what it was. So right around January to give you an exact time frame. So yeah I was also losing my mind that a pandemic might happen...
      It was just a horrid time and so much messed up stuff had happened.... But I found these videos and when I found my sanity slipping away or fearing death or worse, I would just watch some "You Suck At Cooking". I'm currently 409 days sober for the first time in my life. The feeling I get when I hear the jingle is inexplicable. It's a reminder of where I've been but also where I am. It's a a kind of joy that only comes from having seen the absolute bottom. I get an instant wave of warmth over my entire body when I hear a YSAC video start. It's insane but this guy kept me alive and continues to be a source of strength and a reminder of what I've been through. There's very few people I'd actually like to meet and personally thank but he's definitely one of them.

      Also, if you try to order this dish in Great Britain and the waiter speaks some incomprehensible foreign language like Scouse, just say the following 'PO-TA-TOES; boil em mash em - stick em in a stew' and they'll know immediately which particular root vegetable you're on about. Then ask for them to be treated like the English mens team in the Euros and they'll arrive smashed and cooked in olive oil with an unhealthy dose of Italian cheese at the finish.
