Frank Walks Episode 20 With Joey Chestnut Presented by BodyArmor

I walked with Joey Chestnut as he prepared to face Takeru Kobayashi in a Netflix special in Las Vegas. The undisputed King of Competitive Eating, Chestnut, has won the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Competition on the 4th of July at Coney Island 16 times while setting several world records, including 76 Hot Dogs eaten in ten minutes. Along the way, he developed an intense rivalry with Kobayashi, nicknamed the Godfather of Competitive Eating. Kobayashi has won the Nathan's Contest six times. 

The rivalry reached a crescendo in 2008 when Joey Chestnut defeated Takeru Kobayashi in sudden death, and each set a new World Record. The two Hot Dog Legends have not faced each other in 15 years, as Kobayashi has stated that Monday's contest will be his Competive Eating Swan song. The event billed as "Unfinished Beef" airs on Netflix at noon PT (3 pm ET).
