Bourdain is always drunk and high. Being faded can be misinterpreted as pompousness because you're too relaxed to bother with conversing with people seriously. He seems pretty damn cool, but I bet if you crossed him he could easily real life PI you

A good friend of mine went to the same culinary school as Bourdain.  Bourdain was at the school to do some speaking and ended up having beers with some students afterward.  My buddy says he is cool as hell and smoked like a zillion cigarettes that night.  He's had the opportunity to meet several celebrity chefs and says Bobby Flay is an bad person.

Do you have the Lebanon episodes? Mrs Rex has been trying to see those for awhile.

That Lebenon episode was maybe the best of the entire series. 

*edit-  Just occured to me that there were two.  I was referring to the first, scary stuff going on at that time in the region.

Lebanon was fantastic.  My fav was the Saudi episode.  My favorite moment in any is eating at the Parilla in Uruguay.  Middle east and Southeast Asia are always winners.

Yes in all likelihood we all interact somewhat regularly with someone who is one push in the wrong direction from killing themselves.

which is why it's important to always be cognizant of the fact that no matter how bad of a day you're having, someone is having a worse one with much worse implications.  knowing this should help you treat others with the kindness that they deserve to be treated with.

Yep. Also, it seemed pretty obvious to me that he was a guy who was battling demons. Loved the shows. Really talented guy.

he had tons of insecurities and flaws and he wrote and talked about them and how he was trying to fix himself. that's why everyone loved him. nobody loves a dumbshit trying to appear perfect. not genuinely.
