I veckans avsnitt berättar den internationellt erkända svenske kocken Niklas Ekstedt för Al om telefonsamtalet från skolan som förändrade hans liv! Känd för sin matlagning över öppen eld delar Niklas med sig av sin kärlek för det svenska idylliska småstadslivet i denna intervju som ovanligt nog inte bara har med matlagning att göra. Al Pitcher är en komiker född i England och uppvuxen i Nya Zeeland. Han bor i Sverige sedan år 2010 med sin svenska fru och sina barn. När Al först kom till Sverige slogs han av hur folk skulle "fika" hela tiden. Han förstod snabbt hur viktig fikakulturen verkligen är för svenskar. Al är känd för att vara vänlig, varm och väldigt rolig på scenen, men utanför scenen han har en rädsla för att lära känna nya människor. Så, för att bli av med denna sociala rädsla har Al nu bestämt sig för att bjuda in några "DRÖMGÄSTER” som han vill lära känna bättre – och vad är bättre än att ta en fika tillsammans?
