Munchies: Josh Ozersky
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- This is the first Munchies episode featuring a food writer. Sure, we have had food personalties who write, but Josh Ozersky is different. Josh's rise to prominence came about with his book Meat Me in Manhattan: A Carnivore's Guide to New York, and from there he went on edit Grub Street for New York magazine while putting out other books on topics like Colonel Sanders and the hamburger. We first met Josh while filming our Michael White Munchies episode. Josh showed up to the shoot with a half-eaten sandwich and then proceeded to order some pasta before we headed to three more restaurants. It was then that we knew he was special. Beside his Falstaffian appetite, Josh's way with words is what sets him apart from other food people. When we approached him about where he would like to go, he immediately said that he would not leave the confines of Manhattan's East Village, and that he already had his crew in mind. So, with Mr. Recipe, Tommy Walker, and Chef Anthony Goncalves in tow, Josh took us to three of his favorite neighborhood spots. We could go on and on about all the characters in this episode, but you really just have experience it for yourself. Please enjoy all 20 minutes of this episode.

RIP Josh, We are diminished.
Ameen
This was one of the best Munchies episodes ever. I love all those guys!
"I'm like a B list food personality, an A list writer and like a C list human being" - I always come back to watch Josh in this short, he is sorely missed. His humour is timeless, RIP.
Am I the only one who's constantly staring at that guys moustache
No. No you are not.
I can't watch anymore because of the moustache!!
Frankiee Crockett You're staring at it because of endless closeups. The filmer also noticed it. Munchies cameramen always notice weird ass shit like that and then get as much footage of it as they can.

Dali had that stache, too.
I don't want to assume he 'was inspired by' Dali, but the thought did come to mind.
It's disturbing on its own but the fact that the rest of his dome is completely hairless bumps it up to horrifying.
Just found out that he passed away. I wasn't the biggest fan of Josh Ozersky, but I like that he brought his own voice to the food party and it's a sad loss. RIP Josh Ozersky
+SethHesio Sad but he was kinda big
Do you know what his cause of death was?
+SethHesio he got an epilepsy attack in the shower and drowned.
He loved meat and brought things for us to learn from. I heard he did not die from a seizure. Some say he died choking on a rib eye.
He suffered a Seizure in the Hotel Shower and Drowned !!!
I find it really hard to comprehend that some of these people really exist.
i wish somebody someday would just beat josh ozersky up
"And the false bottoms that characterize all weird people.' This is a brilliant quote.
This guy's not even a hipster. He's just fucking weird.
Mr.Recipe is like that one strange uncle you gotta watch your kids around
There is zero chance the man with the mustache has been laid in the past decade.
A real snapshot of a real slice of New York eccentrics. This is what a city should be. A place where anyone can be anything
He was the funniest. We used to Hangout in NYC tasting all kinds of food. RIP my Friend.
This is one of the best Munchies. A really interesting chef/food personality who isn't into trendy food, but just good food by traditional family chefs. Love this.
Mr. Recipe perfectly encapsulates my feelings on what is wrong with NY nowadays: cartoonish, overtly eccentric nobodys who insist on acting like anyone should give two shits about them or what they do. RIP Ozersky. Your writing will be missed.
Coney Island freak show... These four words sum it up nicely
The man looks like he's hadn't had a bath in months.
they can't afford to do so.
Josh was my childhood friend from Atlantic City. RIP Josh.
I just woke up today and suddenly thought, ''i need to use that moustache guy's quote 'adds a little, 'cha cha cha'' to my vernacular
As a New Yorker I gotta say, this was a great video
I am so far removed from this weird niche universe, and i am extremely grateful for that.
I love Ozersky - his gastronomical instincts are spot on.
"i only eat things with parents" Josh Ozersky, rip
11:05 "Forget about the food" LMAO I had tears in my eyes.
id give a million bucks to the first lady that kisses the devil mustache dude.
damn shun.
id have to double it to 2mil since u really like him. deal.
miss this dude a lot. one of my favorite food personalities. rip.
Recipe disturbs me...that stash...*shudders*
But it's fucking fabulous xD
This is like an Endless Summer of George.
Next ... Watch Josh getting a bypass and fighting cancer, only on VICE !
Or...ya know...dead.
RIP Josh.
still the best Chef’s Night Out ever made - nyc w a gaggle of fuckin freaks, nothing better
Still one of the best episodes of munchies
Probably one of the best munchies episodes. Why so many thumbs down?
I don't get it. There was some good food in the beginning but what was with the burnt charred supermarket stuff at the end. What was his point?
To be fair, all yanks and Brits I had met have charcoal instead of meat. They don't seem to like meaty flavour too much
He was trying to be ironic. He considers himself and his shitty friends the high point of foodie culture and opinion so cooking this shitty b-grade "meat" from the local supermarket chain (I don't buy his story about forgetting to buy the really nice marbled meat, this shit was all orchestrated for the cameras) and taking his shirt off trying to look trashy he thought he was being really ironic and clever for Vice.
RIP Josh!!! ..... Will miss ur hilarious commentary.
Sometimes, I feel like Vice goes out of their way to get some of the most dislikable hosts possible.
I thought this vid was solid. I think a lot of people don't understand the self-deprecating and severely strange characteristics of the guy featured. He's not asking is to like him. He didn't think we would and the whole "nobody came"scene spoke to that. When he was shopping it was for a meat festival that, ironically, featured the worst picks he could find. He stated it was the worst meat cooked the worst way with spices made from children's tears. So. Can it still be appreciated? I'm not saying he's a genius, and he may come off as pretentious, but he is awesomely odd and awkward. I can appreciate it.
Why is the goofballs shirt off
Because brah, he lives in the zone.
hazer melon Because he has a food personality
Mr. Recipe is a well cultured dude, big ups!
He has some amusing moments, but he's obviously one of those guys who battles low self esteem by presenting an overtly arrogant facade.
A decade ago he would have worked in a Record shop.
Brilliant..! Could binge watch a weekends worth.
i have the same problem with all my shirts.
I've only ever spoken to Cutlets briefly, and in a professional context. While, being an omega male myself, I suspect that he and I would make piss poor drinking buddies, there are few men that I enjoy more in print or on video than Rabbi Ozersky. Thanks for ceding the floor to him for these few minutes.
That's the coolest episode of Munchies ever.
I won't lie...it was almost worth uploading this video just to see the comments. They're not nice, but they brightened my evening. Thanks, everyone.
Say what you will about the man... he was a character...that is certain. RIP Josh Ozersky
You guys complaining about the mustache guy made my night
hi i'm josh i'm a pompous bellend pleasd 2 meet u
one of the best episodes
guys, be a little nicer. they may all have autism
Quantumlogik I think you nailed it. I bet he loves to play smash brothers.
This is by far the best 'munchies', it is a shame that Josh is not still around.
the guy with the weird mustache is creeping me out
He is so missed. A true poet, with deep true food knowledge. The hordes of copycats simply cannot match him.
"I only eat things with parents" hahaha
RIP to a one of a kind voice in the foodie community
I think this guy made me dumber....
Josh, Mr Recipe and co make a great team, hilarious, I could watch another 20 episodes of this ,
i figure out why these pretensions weirdos hang out together.
because regular people are cant stand their company for 1 minute.
"regular"
hahahahaha
Radickly Rick I like that he called the people at his “barbecue” weird, meanwhile he’s grilling bodega spam shirtless on the floor
I can't help but laugh when I see this big hairy bear man cooking meats on a rooftop. Rock on.
He is so unapologetically weird that he is strangely loveable
That josh ozerky has a way with words , comedy from start to finish
(for anyone reading the captions)
At 1:39 Josh doesn't say "you're off, you're off"--as it states, and which makes no sense.
What he actually says is "puerile"--which means 'childishly silly or trivial.'
(It's a really good pejorative vocab word!)
one of the best/funniest munchies yet. please keep up the good work.
the ending won me over to be honest
I don't understand why everybody disliked this man so much, I thought he was a pretty cool dude.
If you tell me this isn’t the best chefs night out ever... I reject your statement
freaking bout time - this is the only thing I wish to watch on the whole channel.
How could anyone dislike this?
u have reassured my faith in humanity, i wish you health and happiness
This was a 1st for the channel and loved only to read comments after and I’m saddened to hear of his passing.
"i live in the zone..."
ok cool guy
Easily the best episode of Munchies that I have watched so far.
one of the best videos i´ve ever seen
Thank you Josh.
i like how the albanian guy is talking about italian dishes in an italian american accent using words in spanish and english
A lovable episode. You will be missed, Josh Ozersky.
Josh Ozersky rocks! This is an awesome video ! I would love to go out on the town with Ozersky anytime!
SBF
Im loving the environment in this video!
RIP josh . You will be missed everyday.
yes longer munchies videos please
Food is the best form of art.
This guy needs to come to Spain, Italy, Greece, France or Turkey. I´m sure it will change his perception on his understanding about food.
Josh has been like this for years before the whole hipster term was even invented. If you've seen him in Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations you would know he's just passionate about food
He looks like the guy from Jurassic Park who turned off the electric fences.
very cool. didnt expect to watch the entire thing
Mr Recepie should have a Munchies episode
Rest In Peace Josh, you will be missed dearly
I can't believe I actually watched the whole thing...
I really miss Josh.
Me too. Discerning, unapologetic, talented writer, and a harbinger of food in it’s best and purest form.
LOL at 6:48, macro think's that josh just read his mind on having pizza and hi-fives him thinking "YEA DUDE LETS GO GET SOME PIZZA!" but he didnt realise Josh wasn't talking to him.
The best tasting food in the world is the one made with love from a good friend. This video confirms it.
I also quite enjoyed Josh's self-deprecating humor. I did NOT get a sense of "hipster" out of him.
12:55 is great! Some way with words!
Who ever told that guy that mustache was cool must hate him lmao
THE best munchies episode. Anthony Bourdain's episode coming in on a not so close second.
As always a fascinating documentary!! Thanks Vice!!!
RIP!!! Master of protein Adjudicator of restaurant!!!
Welcome! You have now reached the top of the foodchain.
All these chef looks very normal ..... elegantly stuffed. Feels real =o)
I like people who wear their heart on their sleeve.
i couldnt stop staring at the mustache
he has his own vice show about food. Fresh off the boat. now you know
