Summary

Maria Shriver wants a burger and fries for her last meal. But it's WHERE she wants to eat it that's most interesting of all!

We'll learn the earliest origins of the hamburger from burger authority, documentarian, and TV host George Motz, author of "The Great American Burger Book."

Thrillist writer Kevin Alexander spent a year traveling the USA with the express mission of eating 330 burgers and compiling a list of his favorite 100. Which burger is best? You'll have to listen to find out!

And finally, we are humbled and honored to announce that Your Last Meal has been nominated for a prestigious James Beard Award for Best Podcast! Rachel and Aaron will be attending the award ceremony in NYC on April 27. Fingers crossed!
