Vegan Chilaquiles Two Ways

S3 E15 | Shady Massages & Chilaquiles with Felipe Esparza, Ken Flores | Something's Burning

Comedian Felipe Esparza and his buddy, up-and-comer Ken Flores, stop by the kitchen for an epic conversation including the best fast-food joint, getting arrested for a food fight, how Felipe saved the life of a rabbit, and a hot debate on the similarities of gangs and fraternities. There’s not one, but TWO massage parlor stories... oh, and I’m making Felipe’s vegan chilaquiles recipe.
