Yak & Chef Donny have me at a crossroads!

Okay, as a longtime Yak & Chef Donny fan, I have found myself in a major quandary. After another absolute BANGER today from Chef himself on the Yak, there now seems to be no doubt left on who will be taking Guest of the Year, as every time this man steps into the studio, not only us as the audience but even fellow Yakkers truly haven't a clue in the world where the conversation may end up... so now my dilemma: do we want Donny to be a regular, like an Eddie or Dana... or are the random pop-ins the perfect sweet spot?
Today, the tornado hit Chicago, but only in the Yak studio, as yet again Donny left us all in shock over what exactly went down. He is not just an onion being peeled back anymore; he is just letting it rip from the hip on his own. Today, from the jump, he took over the show, leading with an array of topics from hot air balloon travel to singing French songs. Even the masters of leading questions, Nick & KB, at times were befuddled at Chef's ability to shapeshift the convo so quickly.
His excuse? Caffeine. Yep, that's right, the man who will perform insane feats apparently cannot handle caffeine past 11 a.m. Gosh darn, how can you not love this man... seriously, Mark... what is wrong with you! Ohhhh, let's also not forget football season is just around the corner, which could mean... the Wheel vs. Chef may be back in our lives. Now, some will play the role of Debbie Downer and scream "bit bit bit." One, F*** off, it's a content company, and two, if you still think Donny is playing a bit, you may need a reality check, 'cause this is potentially Barstool's Most Interesting Man.
It may be time to send SpecTate with him or at the very least add him to the list, 'cause his stories somehow continue to top the one before. So I say again, as he always leaves us wanting more, do us Yak fans want him to become more of a regular, or is what makes him so special in our hearts the randomness and surprise of our days when we see him walking across that hardwood towards the studio? I, for one, am completely & utterly torn, but what I know for sure is we are always left wanting more Chef.
