Editing Arif's Lifetime Ban from Olive Garden

During Episode 621 ("Cool Crimes"), Arif revealed that he is effectively banned from 
Olive Garden following an incident during his junior year of high school. His debate 
coach, sceptical of Arif's claimed appetite, challenged him to a never-ending pasta 
eating contest. Arif accepted, ate well through two bowls, and then made a tactically 
catastrophic choice on the third: Angel Hair, which does not hold up under volume. 
Feeling ill, he walked to the half-wall divider area near the dining room, vomited on 
the floor — hidden from the table by the wall — stood up, walked to the host stand, 
calmly informed them that ''somebody'' had thrown up in the hallway, cleaned himself 
up in the bathroom, returned to the table, and ate four more bowls to win the contest.

He could not eat pasta for approximately four years afterward.

The story surfaced in the context of the hosts' Boston live show announcement (December 
8, 730 Tavern Kitchen and Patio, Cambridge, MA), after James suggested warning the 
venue staff, and James's separate proposal that the show's final live event be held at 
the Olive Garden in Times Square. James summarised: "This is a man with zero scruples, 
zero ethics." Arif's defence: he had not been paying; the debate coach was. Before 
closing the episode, James amended his sign-off to: "Please remember to just tell the 
truth to the waitress at the Olive Garden." Arif's correction: "It was the hostess."
