Family Dinner

Home for the Holidays: Season Finale

Merry Christmas Fam! 🎄 Set against cozy decorations and a table filled with memories, this episode is all about family and the stories that shape our Christmas memories. On the menu: a NADC Burger paired with CANN’s holiday Cranberry Sage, as we dive into what Christmas has always looked like in our family. We flip through Christmas throwback photos, laugh through fashion eras we can’t forget, and reflect on which traditions we hope never disappear. To round it out, it’s Sip & Spill Holiday Edition, where we trade our favorite Christmas songs, debate the holiday movies we have to rewatch every year, relive the happiest Christmas moments that still stick with us, and try to sum up the holidays in just one word. We close with a heartfelt toast to family, food, and the stories that always bring us home. Thank you for being part of our first season.

The Man Behind Mr. Beef: Christopher Zucchero at the Table

Hi Fam! This week, we’re sitting down with Christopher Zucchero — the man, the myth, the heart behind one of Chicago’s most iconic sandwich shops: Mr. Beef in River North. If you’ve seen FX’s The Bear, you’ve already caught a glimpse of his world (the stand is an integral set on the show!). Christopher joins us to talk about what it’s like to run a true Chicago institution, go viral thanks to a few good friends, and keep the beef hot (literally). But this episode goes deeper than just sandwiches. Christopher opens up about his dad, who brought him into the business from day one, and the family bonds that have grown over more than 30 years of working the stand side by side with his crew. It’s a story about food, loyalty, legacy, and love, Chicago style. 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss a dinner invite! 🎧 Listen on all audio streaming platforms 📱 Follow us for behind-the-scenes, clips, and more: @familydinnershow ✉️ Want to be a guest?
