In Monkey Steaks, the Black Lincoln Collective dives headfirst into one of their most chaotic episodes yet — the kind of recording that starts with a bad idea and ends with Fred yelling, “I’m just saying, if monkeys can cook, they’d be better than half these Food Network clowns!”
From that deranged opening, things spiral quickly. Parker can’t stop laughing long enough to explain the origin of the phrase “Monkey Steaks,” Allan attempts to apply logic (mistake number one), and Fred doubles down on the theory that primates should be running hibachi grills. It’s equal parts brilliance and breakdown.
Between rants about cooking shows, bizarre celebrity impressions, and one of the worst business pitches ever conceived (“It’s a steakhouse, but we only serve monkey-themed cuts — trust me, it’s vegan... sort of”), the hosts manage to create comedic gold out of pure chaos.
There’s also a weirdly philosophical detour into what makes humor work — Parker claims, “If you have to explain a joke, you’ve already failed... unless it’s on this show, then it’s just Tuesday.” Fred insists that sarcasm is a “love language,” while Allan tries and fails to keep the conversation from falling into total anarchy.
The result is classic Black Lincoln Collective: a raw, ridiculous, occasionally brilliant display of comedic chemistry. It’s the kind of episode that feels both entirely improvised and impossibly planned, like watching three stand-ups crash a TED Talk.
If you’re new to the show, Monkey Steaks is your initiation. If you’re a returning listener, well, you already know better — and you’re probably here for the trainwreck.
