>There are no more Hooters restaurants left in Massachusetts.

What is one event that would have changed the direction of our fav pod?

The obvious ones would be Good Morning America and making the Netflix show. But I like to think about if Mitch DID like Yusong's green tea ice cream. Society would be forever changed.

Mitch smoked weed for the first time in 20 years for this article apparently

I have been over analyzing and trying to figure out the perfect lineup for the Texas live show trip and I think it’s this

Houston: James Coney Island. One of the most iconic Houston chains and lends for a easy “Let Me Be Frank” segment

Dallas: El Fenix. There has to be one Tex Mex chain on the tour and El Fenix is literally the birth place of it. Braums get a segment of tasting the ice creams and rating them

Austin 1: P Terry’s. The quintessential burger chain in Austin area and they will love comparing it to In-N-Out.

Austin 2: Pluckers. Famous wing spot that was born in Austin. Feel like it adds to a great chaotic last of the tour show.

What do you guys think? What would you change?

It's kinda crazy. Been going through the back catalogue and I tend to skip episodes they aren't featured on. Anyway shouts outs to the two of 'em!!!

I know there was a post 12 days ago about this but only 3 comments and they deserve more engagement!

They're really good! It's noise rock and the vocalist does kinda like riot grrl vocals which understandably can be an immediate no go for a lot of people, but if you even remotely like that kind of stuff you should check em out, at least get them above 100,000 listens per song on Spotify!

Closest comp I can think of is this band Prostitute , who are a band from Dearborn Michigan.

Herman probably isn’t able to have children, so wolfie stepped in as the donor.

Beeeee my little baaaaaakerrrrrrrrrrr

Happy to hear some Detroit shoutouts and mentions on latest ep. As a local, a few stray notes:

- a coney with hamburger meat in the bun is called a Loose Coney and it’s a vulgar food for the drunk and depraved. Hits the spot every time.

- Jet’s is not Buddy’s pizza rival, that would be Loui’s in Hazel Park. Loui split from the founding of Buddy’s and started his own shop decades ago and while Buddy’s has expanded greatly over the last 10 years, Loui’s is a stand alone operation. Other notable contenders include Michigan & Trumbull, Grandma Bob’s and Green Lantern. I don’t think anyone really thinks of Jets as a leading with Detroit style pizza - though their deep dish is kinda Detroit style on paper.

- The auto plant pan thing re: pizza is accurate but misunderstood. The pans that inspired Detroit style pizza weren’t, like, auto parts but rather they were used by line workers during assembly. For example, say your station on the line required you to install four screws, two bolts and a rod. Your station would have those items pre-portioned into individual pans for each vehicle. Grab a pan, install, put the pan in the empty stack, grab another pan with four screws, two bolts and a rod and install on the next vehicle. You’d be surprised how often this system is still used today. American manufacturing!

- Pegasus Taverna kinda sucks - tho I’m glad the boys had a good time. It’s a legacy place in Detroit’s Greektown and while I respect its history and importance, there’s a lot better Greek food in town. And yes, Greek immigrants largely started the Coney Island diner thing we still have today. FWIW, I think Greek Islands in Birmingham is pretty much the best coney in the area with mostly authentic greek food along side diner favorites.

Detroit has an amazing food scene with a rich history of truly innovative food and incredible immigrant and ethnic foods from across the world and at all budget levels. I hope some friends here will visit to give it a try soon!
