Summary
Carl Ruiz is facing his greatest nightmare: a family road trip. In this classic segment from the final year at SiriusXM, Carl prepares for the legendary Memphis in May BBQ festival, only to realize his solo professional mission has turned into a cross-country trek with his wife and kids. The guys dive into truck stop culture and why Carl desperately needs a CB radio to survive the drive.
This episode also features:
A Historic First Meeting: Opie and Carl talk to Matt Farah (The Smoking Tire) for the very first time.
The Crepe Disaster: Opie tries to convince a professional chef that his latest cooking video is "gourmet" quality, driving Carl absolutely nuts.
