Season 3 of the smash hit FX/Hulu show “The Bear” roared to life just days ago, but Will Poulter (the actor who plays fan-favorite Luca) and 2014 F&W Best New Chef Dave Beran had been prepping for weeks. Poulter — like his co-star Jeremy Allen White — staged with Beran at his Santa Monica restaurant Pasjoli to learn how to accurately portray a professional chef onscreen. The lessons went so well, Beran says he’d hire Poulter as a cook — even despite a messy mishap with a pastry bag. The two dished all about getting kitchen culture right on and offscreen, what it takes to be at the top of your craft, and the pure magic of a great restaurant service.

×The big bill is as bad as you’ve heard – transferring wealth to the rich while gutting essential health and safety regulations – and much, much worse: like guaranteeing certain death for hundreds of thousands who rely on subsidized health or international aid. Oh, and it “legalizes” American Fascism. Think I’m exaggerating? Read the bill. Then kill it. www.charlesbursell.com…
The MAGA pod people, a sad collection of dorks and bastards who rely on hate and lies to hold power, have snatched the Iowa Senator. Plus: Gaza is one giant war crime, a moral victory for West Point, and free thinking may not be what you think it is. www.charlesbursell.com
From Gaza to Ukraine to the latest Orange Menace mayhem, imagine how each story would be different if we lived in a real democracy. And then, let every decision you make, and every action you take, demand that democracy. www.charlesbursell.com
Several years (from the 90s to today) of questionable audio bits, improv, tests, and outtakes swept off the cutting room floor and tossed into a goofy collage episode. Enjoy!
The Big Abomination Bill gives 25% of total tax cuts to the Super Wealthy (top 0.1%) and 66% to the Just Plain Wealthy. The Working Poor will LOSE a thousand dollars a year they already don’t have. The good news: They will probably fail spectacularly. The bad news: ICE is still the F-ing Gestapo. www.charlesbursell.com…
To prove a point, this episode has an intentionally provocative title to see if it results in more clicks, illustrating one of the problems with so-called “new media” on the socials. Also: we discuss the latest headlines, the Trump Doctrine and… really, is he gay? www.charlesbursell.com
Corruption and incompetence still define the regime even as they seem to be riffing wildly on policy. Will enough Americans resist, or will they trade their freedom for a place in the new authoritarian bourgeoisie. www.charlesbursell.com
To the war mongers we are cannon fodder. To the money mongers we are the dead eyed, docile workers of Metropolis. Throw yourself on the gears. Strike! Boycott! Stop the fascist machine. Shut it down. www.charlesbursell.com
Co-hosts Chuck and Chucky discuss the new Pope and the (zero) chances of church reform from their perspective as recovering Catholics and happy atheists. www.charlesbursell.com
In the never ending arms race between private profit and government regulations there can be no winner. It’s time to chuck them both, especially with the likes of AI, the climate crisis, and fascism breathing down our neck. www.charlesbursell.com
Every odious offense of the regime falls under two basic themes: gut federal services and take dictatorial control of what’s left. Don’t let the daily avalanche of horrible headlines overwhelm you. Historians can sort out the details, we need to stay focused on the fight for democracy. www.charlesbursell.com…
Some Democrats are finally starting to talk tough about taking down the regime, jumping in front of the parade and pretending to lead. If that’s what it takes, fine, welcome to the fight. Also, is the Orange Menace a big joke or is he genuinely dangerous? It’s not an either/or question. www.charlesbursell.com…
A “big tent” coalition to defeat The Regime? Fine. But if we want a real democracy, ditch that metaphor for a better one: “build a better mousetrap.” Also: it’s time to force Congress’s hand on impeachment. Plus: a starter list of “know your rights” resources. www.charlesbursell.com
YouTube pundits, stop pretending you’re journalists and join the revolution. Real news media with actual journalists, declare the administration a rogue regime and cover it accordingly. Also, which Repugs to pressure on impeachment. www.charlesbursell.com
The fascist Regime continues its authoritarian agenda in defiance of Congress, the courts, international law, and public opinion. Impeachment is the only solution at this point. Luckily, Charles Bursell has a plan! www.charlesbursell.com

The Regine has crossed a red line by tossing innocent people into foreign concentration camps, brazenly defying orders from the nation’s highest court, and offering only obvious lies and propaganda in defense. Now is the time for Americans to show their contempt and bring down the Orange Menace. World Day of Action is Saturday April 19th. www.charlesbursell.com…

It’s entirely possible that within days the Insurrection Act and even Martial Law will be deployed in order to terrorize immigrants and suppress peaceful protest. Without panicking, the pro-democracy resistance must plan strategy and tactics going forward. www.charlesbursell.com

The Regime is openly preparing for violence against street protesters. As such, it is time for mass consumer boycotts and labor strikes to take a central role in the movement. For that, we’ll need a strong foundation of mutual aid. What is Mutual Aid? This episode provides an overview. www.charlesbursell.com…

Now that we can stop wetting ourselves over tariffs (or can we?) let's try to get clear-eyed about our current dire situation. Convicted felons are openly discussing war crimes in the Oval Office, the cold-as-ICE American Gestapo is running amok, and The Supreme Court is playing hide-and-seek with the Constitution. It’s time to do our homework on mutual aid and make some tangible plans for resisting state violence. www.charlesbursell.com…

With a stunning Wisconsin win, Cory Booker’s dramatic filibuster, raucous Town Halls and rallies, and an unbeaten streak in the courts, the resistance is having a watershed moment. Seemingly undeterred, the Regime continues its constitutional crime spree, its dangerous financial and foreign policies, and appears now, in its own defining moment, to be openly planning for violence. www.charlesbursell.com…

I believe we can win the war for democracy in America, but just how bad can it get before we do? We need the courts to hang strong, a “mad as hell” turning point from someone in the media, and it’d be great if the Dems shattered into pieces. Then at least maybe they could rise again as something useful. In the meantime we have to fight for ourselves, because apparently no one is coming to save us. www.charlesbursell.com…

The resistance is growing and that’s good, but protest alone won’t be enough. The fascist coup is attacking swiftly. We have to meet the assault with mass disruption. It’s time to shut down systems.

The Economic Blackout is only the first warning shot in what will be a long commitment, but the battle is joined.

That’ll do for starters. www.charlesbursell.com…
