Harris may have been born and raised in New York City, but she has Tennessee roots through her father and has spent much of her life split between homes in the Northeast and the South – specifically New Orleans. For more than fifty years, she has been a college professor, a writer, and a lecturer, and her many books have earned her a reputation as an authority on food of the African Diaspora, as well as a lifetime achievement award from the James Beard Foundation. A few years back, Netflix adapted her book, High on the Hog: A Culinary Journey from Africa to America , into a 4 part docuseries. And I’m very proud to say that she’s a longtime contributor to Southern Living with a regular column called The Welcome Table. This episode was recorded in the Southern Living Birmingham studios, and Sid and Jessica talked about her mother’s signature mac and cheese, the cast-iron skillet she’d be sure to save if ever her house were on fire, and her dear friend, the late New Orleans chef Leah Chase.

We also compare our year of fight picks against each other, as well as to our friends at Sherdog and Bloody Elbow. As you can imagine, this was a huge opportunity for us to look absolutely terrible.

It wouldn't be a Jon Jones fight week without a bunch of drama, and this week's UFC 232: Jones vs. Gustafsson is no different. Due to an abnormality in one of Jones' drug tests, the entire UFC 232 event has been moved from Las Vegas to Los Angeles on only a few days notice. Needless to say we have a lot to say about that during the first half of this week's episode. In the second half of the show we run down the entire UFC 232 card, including the UFC Women's Featherweight Championship fight between champion Cristiane "Cyborg" Justino and UFC Bantamweight Champion Amanda Nunes.

We begin this week's episode by previewing the seventh UFC event in the last thirty one days.

Then in the second half of the episode we look back at the results of last weekend's UFC 201: Lawler vs. Woodley, featuring the 7th new UFC champion of 2016 so far, as well as the Invicta FC 18 and World Series of Fighting 32 results.

It's a strange weekend of MMA coming up with both UFC Fight Night: Cowboy vs. Cowboy, and Bellator 149: Shamrock vs. Gracie taking place. We start this episode previewing Sunday night's snakebit UFC Fight Night, which is now main evented by dueling cowboys. Although the card has lost a lot of interesting matchups due to injury, there are still enough interesting fights for us to break down. In the second half of the show we take a look at this Friday night's Bellator event, a show headlined by a twenty year old grudge match between Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie, along with a co-main event between Kimbo Slice and his apparent street-fighting rival Dada 5000. Finally we try to find time throughout the show to discuss the week in MMA, including both Alistair Overeem and Aljamain Sterling re-signing with the UFC, Rampage Jackson returning to Bellator, the NAC suspension of Wanderlei Silva, and the unfortunate passing of UFC and Pride legend Kevin Randleman.

This week we are joined by UFC lightweight "The Quebec Kid" Olivier Aubin-Mercier, coming off of his third straight UFC win last weekend at UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Oliviera. Olivier discusses when he'd like to fight next, online criticism to his last fight, his Reebok sponsorship, the videogame he's currently hooked on, and more. In addition to Olivier's fight, we also recap the rest of the fights from last weekend's card, including the strange esophagus tear in the main event, and a Fight Of The Night from Patrick Cote and Josh Burkman. Finally we take a few minutes to discuss some of the week's MMA news including Anthony "Rumble" Johnson's awful Facebook rant, Alexis Davis' pregnancy, and this Friday night's Bellator event headlined by Melvin Guillard and Brandon Girtz.

The UFC is returning to Canada once again for UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Oliviera. This event from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan features a lot of the most promising Canadian UFC fighters, so we've asked The Parting Shot Podcast's Carlin Bardsley to help us preview the entire show from top to bottom. We also briefly touch on some of the week's strangest MMA news including the latest on Anderson Silva's ridiculous plea to the Nevada Athletic Commission, the return of The Barncat to the UFC, as well as a female fighter who's been unknowingly fighting (and winning) for months while being pregnant.
