A Tuesday roast?! | Billy Porter | Dish Podcast

Nick and Angela welcome a fashion icon to Dish HQ.

Born in Pennsylvania, Billy Porter was destined for greatness. In this episode, Billy spills all the juicy details on his ever-evolving career—from releasing an album while on jury duty to winning Star Search (1992). He went on to become a Broadway icon, earning a Tony for Kinky Boots (2013) and later winning an Emmy for his powerful role as Pray Tell in Pose (2018).

Nick shakes up the margaritas while Angela serves up a mouthwatering Greek chicken with orzo. And to cheers? A glass of Le Mesnil Blanc de Blanc Grand Cru Brut, NV.
Even though he’s only been in the UK for a few months, Billy has already formed some strong–and potentially questionable–opinions. Our trio discuss Billy’s views on Jerusalem artichokes, Christmas in England, and the correct way to pronounce your herbs!

He also channels his inner fairy godmother, sprinkling some of his signature Porter wisdom and sharing invaluable life lessons from his incredible late mother—especially the importance of self-care.

"The word pudding is believed to come from the French boudin, which may derive from the Latin botellus, meaning "small sausage", referring to encased meats used in medieval European puddings.[3][2] Another proposed etymology is from the West German 'pud' meaning 'to swell'.[2]

According to the Oxford English Dictionary the word pudding dates to the 13th century. It refers to the entrails or stomach of a sheep, pig or other animal stuffed with meat, offal, suet, oatmeal and seasonings.[4] By the 1500s the word was used to refer to the guts or entrails or the contents of other people's stomachs especially when pierced with a sword, as in battle.[5] The Oxford English Dictionary describes puddings also as 'a boiled, steamed or baked dish made with various sweet (or sometimes) savoury ingredients added to the mixture, typically including milk, eggs, and flour (or other starchy ingredients such as suet, rice, semolina, etc.), enclosed within a crust made from such a mixture'"

It’s pretty similar to the American popover 😍

[madelinekimbro]

I think the Yorkshire Pudding is similar to a Dutch pancake...

[NotZoeAgain]

It is pudding when you have it as leftovers with jam ❤

[andrewcollins]

I’ve loved watching him on these clips but it baffles me how he can call them bread. To me it’s a mini crispy pancake bowl if I had to compare it to something 😂

[nadiablack]

My friend who went to harvard took me to the harvard club in NY for lunch, telling me about this amazing bread they had, they bring out huge yorkshires, i nearly died laughing.

[paintedpilgrim]

Now now Billy this is where we will be
You need to try it with ice cream and golden syrup.

[michellejarrett]

It is a pudding if you eat it with jam 😊

[kayladavis]

But wait… I had no idea Yorkshire pudding is just bread 😵‍💫

[coronalights]

yokshire pudding in the US we call it popovers (well its the closest thing we have to it)

[folasadeadedapo]

Isn't a Yorkshire pudding similar to a popover? They're really easy to make...but i can understand not wanting to

[bettylocks.]

Well, actually, if you wish to truly define it! It is a risen pancake, my lovely! Not bread!

[CarolanneTitmus-Greene]

Yorkshire pudding is a popover in the USA...not bread.

[bettrhalf]

Yorkshire pudding is gravy pudding. It is god's pudding.

[petteremberson]

Try having it the traditional way... before eating the meat and vegetables.
