Episode 351 features former MLB manager Terry Collins reflecting on his remarkable baseball career, followed by an engaging conversation with Honey & Co.

Leonard is joined by his wife, Patty Jarrett, making her first appearance as a special guest co-host, as they explore Itamar and Sarit's culinary journey, their partnership, and the experiences that have shaped their lives together. Terry Collins has managed the Houston Astros, the Anaheim Angels, and the New York Mets in Major League Baseball and the Orix Buffaloes of Nippon Professional Baseball.  Terry started his baseball career as a minor league shortstop.  He then went on to manage the Albuquerque Dukes of the Pacific Coast League and the Buffalo Bisons of the International League at the minor league level.  He made his MLB managerial debut in 1994 with the Houston Astros.  His longest tenure came as manager of the New York Mets, where he led them to their first playoff appearance in nine years in 2015, which resulted in a trip to the 2015 World Series.  That same year, Terry won the National League Sporting News Manager of the Year Award. His steady leadership, resilience, and unwavering commitment to player development earned him the distinction of becoming the longest-tenured manager in Mets history.  Beyond the dugout, Terry has continued to serve the game as a special assistant, advisor, and ambassador for baseball. His enduring influence on the sport reflects a lifetime dedicated to leadership, perseverance, and excellence, leaving a lasting legacy that extends far beyond the wins and championships he helped achieve. Itamar Srulovich and Sarit Packer are the award-winning husband-and-wife chefs behind London's beloved Honey & Co. family of restaurants, celebrated for bringing the vibrant flavors and generous spirit of Middle Eastern cooking to the heart of the city. Since opening the original Honey & Co. in 2012, the pair have built a culinary destination renowned for its warm hospitality, exceptional baking, and deeply personal approach to food, later expanding with additional London restaurants, including their most recent addition, Honey & Co. Daily. Both trained in some of London's finest kitchens after beginning their culinary careers in Israel.  Itamar served as head chef for Yotam Ottolenghi before launching Honey & Co., while Sarit trained at Butler's Wharf and the Orrery before leading the pastry teams at Ottolenghi and serving as executive chef at NOPI. Their shared vision combines the rich culinary traditions of the Eastern Mediterranean with contemporary techniques and an unwavering commitment to hospitality. Beyond their restaurants, they are acclaimed cookbook authors whose award-winning books have introduced home cooks around the world to the joy of Middle Eastern cuisine. They are also hosts of the popular podcast Honey & Co:  The Food Sessions.  This interview was conducted during their international book tour for their latest cookbook, Honey & Co.
