Competitive Eating

A Chat with Patrick Bertoletti

The Chicagoist podcast returns from a brief hiatus with an episode starring Patrick “Deep Dish” Bertoletti, the hometown competitive eater who placed third at this year’s Nathan’s/Coney Island hot dog-eating contest. Bertoletti stopped shoving food in his mouth long enough to chat with the ‘ist about strategy, training, and the question of talent. [Chicagoist]
