And also, like John had said, today is a rest day despite doing the podcast.

I was roped into going to the England Media Day today, which I've got to say was the first time in Kansas City.

And they had laid out a little bit of food and there was a company, a local company called...

brit boy street food and i've got to say they had some sausage rolls traditional and spicy i had the traditional and i've got to say if brit boy street food ever makes it to the uk then the guy chris who runs it with his wife will go down a storm because the sausage roll was quite simply divine and i'd probably ate it quicker than your rigatoni when when in kansas city eat sausage rolls
