Judging "Knife Fight" with Elijah Wood and Ilan Hall on Esquire

Judging cooking shows is a pretty rad gig, as you can imagine. But it's not all glamorous; like most things involving cameras there's a lot of magic -- and waiting around -- involved. Honestly though, one of the funnest sets I've ever been on was "Knife Fight," which is currently airing on the new Esquire Network. I seriously scored and got to judge two episodes with Elijah Wood and Ilan Hall. Elijah is a real deal food fan, and Ilan was a hoot. Plus, as you can tell by the photo, there was beer. A lot of it.

If you didn't get to catch the episodes on the first run, never fear! They're replaying them on the Esquire Network quite frequently, and you can of course watch some of the exclusives online here.
