Dropout has ordered culinary competition series “Gastronauts,” which will feature the streamer’s staple talent as judges, including CEO and “Game Changer” host Sam Reich and “Dimension 20” dungeon master Brennan Lee Mulligan.
In the new series, host Jordan Myrick is joined by three comedians each episode, who all have specific, ridiculous culinary challenges for each episode’s group of chefs, which consist of past contestants and winners from cooking shows including “Chopped,” “The Next Food Network Star” and “Hell’s Kitchen,” per Dropout
Along with Reich and Mulligan, comedians who will be judging the chef competitors include recurring Dropout talent Vic Michaelis, Jacob Wysocki, Oscar Montoya and newcomer TikTok star Kendahl Landreth, among others.
