Looked him up and got this synopsis from nzb360.

Early 80s Chinese cooking show starring celebrity chef Martin Yan, airing on PBS station KQED. This is a US continuation of the Canadian syndicated series of the same name that ran from 1978 to 1982. The show features Chef Martin Yan as the presenter, and focused on Chinese-oriented cooking delivered with Chef Yan's trademark humor and wit, filmed live before a studio audience who were presented the prepared dishes for sampling and commentary.

Unfortunately, that laser shown is 1,000 mW but mislabeled as 1,000 nm. That's 200 times stronger than you can get in a regular laser pointer.

QFT right here. I just started using Kagi this month after being very impressed by the trial period. The $5/month starter plan gives an average of 10 searches per day. It doesnt seem like much but that's a decent amount of searching for my personal use case. Truth be told I'll probably end up going for the family plan at $20/month. Up to six users with unlimited search for less than a Netflix subscription.
