Sokushinbutsu / Hell’s Kitchen

Today, by some content coincidence, we're BOTH talking food. On today's off-top, Brett talks about the self-mummifying buddhist monks who utilize an extreme ascetic diet in conjunction with their intense meditation practice to achieve a state of perceived immortality. You have to check out the photo... if you dare. Josh then gets deep into wind tunnels and the training course that started his iFly career: FITP (aka the Flight Instructor Training Program). What could have inspired this epic sidequest? Why, Gordon Ramsay's popular reality television show of course! If you can't stand the heat... never mind. Just check out this great TV show that involves a lot of cooking and a LOT of cussing: Hell's Kitchen.
