This week, Rich swaps chef whites for warehouse boots. We clash old school vs new gen kitchen mentality, debate whether food is art or ego, and dive into the age-old question: should recipes be freely shared or fiercely guarded? All that, plus laughs, flames, and deep chef chat — only on Behind the Pass.

Dan and Rich serve up a raw slice of kitchen truth—spotlighting the unsung heroes behind the pass, digging into the legacy of foie gras, and unpacking the fallout of Brexit on the industry. From classic dishes to sourcing struggles, it's a brutally honest chat about food, pride, and pressure in UK kitchens. Grab a knife and a pint—this one hits deep.

Dan and Rich face off in the ultimate dream dinner party. Dan cooks for Antony Worrall Thompson, Jack Sparrow, and Jim Carrey, while Rich serves a pop diva, Rick Stein, and Christoph Waltz. With clashing menus, outrageous guests, and wild kitchen stories, it’s all flavour, fire, and fun. Who plates up the better party? Pull up a stool—service is live!

Rich and Dan are joined by chef mate Andy for a wild ride through kitchen life — from allergies (real and fake) to epic pranks, mad service stories, and 80s throwbacks. It’s three old friends talking honest chef banter.
