Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo’s Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn’t just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we’re talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it’s been like to share that journey on national TV.

GUEST- ROB FROM BRITISHMUZZLOADERS! PT.2|| UK & Empire arms Masterclass, plus HQ style MILSURP Q&A! 2:32:44

17 weeks ago2:32:44

2:32:44

In PART ONE we get to know Rob and find out his origin story along with some of his collection favorites and goals. We delve into his collecting preferences and ask about everything in his realm, including the uniforms, and see how he feels about everything in ours. We ask his MILSURP opinions on things like the Ross sights, South American arms, and the Trapdoor vs Snider Debate, and of course we do another HQ Speed Round! We also get into making and using old ammo, the USA/CAN MILSURP scene differences, Historical plus UK gun-filled books to add to your lists, and of course, we ask for Mustache secrets. In PART TWO we get into the specific UK and Empire arms questions, his bread and butter. This part is the schooling, so sit back and learn! We go from the old Brown Bess, Bakers, and Brunswicks (the killer B's? No?) all the way up to the post World War 2 Lee-Enfields-- so that means Snider-Enfields, Martini-Henrys, and all of them LEEs. We also get into the "Rim-lock controversy" to clear up any misinformation on what it is and why it occurs, (and if it exists...) and we have a great Mad Minute discussion and clear up some myths there, complete with a discussion on what was expected of a soldier and details of the actual tests of the day that Rob took and passed! This is a jammed packed show you will definitely LEARN something from or your money back!

MILSURP GOALS for 2025 || Checked boxes in 2024, Checking boxes in 2025 || "Prioritizing & Patience!" 2:27:23

25 weeks ago2:27:23

2:27:23

We are joined by a pair of Michaels to share how we prioritize purchases, what our old and new collecting goals are, and how we've all evolved as the collections have grown. We settle whether or not sporterized and non-functional guns truly count as a "box checker", and whether WW1/WW2 collectors need to collect EVERY single model from EVERY single country in EVERY single caliber, or can you be a true collector with just "an example" or two. A bonus... a few high $$$ rare 2024 pickups, with some tips for getting your own, and of course, lots of history, anecdotes, and valuable info from some informed collectors. Plus some "not quite there, but almost" AI created music about MILSURP collectors preserving History!

And of course, we have a FEW MILSURP Trivia games as well! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOAL: Teach someone somewhere something! NOTE: We do our best to research MULTIPLE SOURCES for everything we share as "facts" but even the most shared & rock solid MILSURP truths can be unproven or proven wrong we've learned! (See 'Backbone of the Wehrmacht') We've read the books, watched the documentaries, and rummaged through hundreds of ordnance reports and country docs to give you the consensus facts as best as we can!
