Episode synopsis
Drake arrives in Rome to handle his Red Bull X-Fighters judging business. The next morning, after a long night, it's nothing but good friends and good food as he meets up with NASCAR driver Brian Vickers and fellow Red Bull X-Fighters judge Regis Harrington as they play a lazy round of golf alongside an ancient aquaduct before learning how to make authentic pasta. Drake gets his Italian cowboy on as he ventures through a 2,600-year-old necropolis on horseback before heading back into central Rome for a homecooked rooftop dinner with his wife.
