"Two young men during World War I set out to record the lives, voices and music of their American countrymen."
The Bear is one of the most rewarding shows I've seen in years. If you've still not joined the bandwagon, I really think it's time. With a return to form in its fifth and final season, this will go down as one of the greatest culinary shows to have ever been made!
P.S. If you've seen Season 4 then you most definitely should watch the Standalone Episode 'Gary', before tuning in to Season 5.

"Low Roar was an indie rock and electronic project founded by American-Icelandic musician Ryan Karazija. The project gained widespread international fame after its haunting, ambient tracks were featured in Hideo Kojima's acclaimed video game Death Stranding."
My mornings just turned a whole lot funnier. Trevor Noah is a riot!
