Last Call: Those sadistic Japanese prank shows
　　I have watched every single clip from a Japanese prank TV show. Every single last one. This is what your humble Takeout editor does when he returns home at night after dinner and a shower: He wastes his time on YouTube and Dailymotion watching those sadistic Japanese mf’ers give each...

Last Call: Are you ready for #SoberSeptember?
　　Sober September 　　It’s surprising to me now that I look back at my Dryuary experiment—in which I abstained from drinking for the entire month of January—with not dread or relief, but absolute fondness. All said, it was a really good month. And after a summer that was as full of...

Last Call: What Burning Man teaches us about urban planning
　　 　　The infrastructure of Black Rock City 　　To the outsider, Burning Man (taking place now through September 3) has a reputation as a dusty, druggy art-orgy.

Last Call: Ramen beer? Ramen beer.
　　 　　Ramen beer, beer ramen 　　I am on board with beer and ramen; give me a hearty tonkotsu and an Asahi Super Dry and I’m a happy camper. The city of Vancouver, though, seem to want to push the beer-and-ramen pairing as far as its logical boundaries will allow: Today,...

Last Call: A sick burn of a restaurant review
　　A restaurant critique that’s less a review, more of a warningWhy are bad reviews so much more entertaining to read than good ones? If I give a TV show an F on an A.V. Club review (which I’ve only done once), I know that a ton more people are going...

Last Call: A book to help you think about beer, as if you’re not already
　　Drink Beer, Think Beer by John Holl 　　An upshot of spending way too much time delayed in airports over the past few days: I’ve had a lot of time to read, and drink beer, and read about drinking beer while drinking beer. Last night in a miserable, overcrowded Denver airport,...

Last Call: Mustard pizza divides the internet
　　Does mustard ever belong on a pizza?Pizza toppings can be contentious, especially if those toppings involve pineapple. But move over, spiky tropical fruit, because there’s a new ’za controversy in town. Lions & Tigers & Squares, a Detroit-style pizzeria in New York, has announced a pizza that replaces tomato sauce...

Last Call: Italy's best porchetta and Serial's very different season 3 trailer
　　Serial’s season 3 trailer is here 　　Crime podcast Serial’s first season and second seasons were markedly different from each other, to say nothing of its quite divergent spinoff, S-Town.

Last Call: Daft Punk, Stevie Wonder, and a book recommendation for better decision-making
　　Basing life decisions as a series of bets 　　I’m currently making my way through the book Thinking In Bets, from former professional poker player Annie Duke.

Last Call: Why supermarkets should consider stocking more store-brand stuff
　　Store-brand saviors? 　　I never realized store-brand goods were so lacking in the U.S., but according to this interesting piece in the Harvard Business Review, 51 percent of products on U.K. grocery-store shelves are store-brand. In America, it’s just 15 percent. The HBR piece goes on to suggest that at a...
