Salutations™!! Today on The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast, Kelly and I talked about Wise Man Brewing’s one year anniversary and the new menu that Finnigan’s Wake rolled out yesterday. Kelly and I want to be more than just a little podcast about menus and “on this day.” We want to talk about food…
Salutations™!! I don’t know that I’m getting the satisfaction I was looking for in the musical list that I talked about listening to. I listened to a couple and I’m just not thinking I’m feeling it. I’m still going to do it, I figure, but I want something that I can talk about. When…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a typical Saturday with The BCPF. We had our breakfast and then to Underdog Records for our take. Then, we did run to see friends of ours who are moving to Denver (the one in Colorado). Then home to listen to the wonderful sounds we purchased on vinyl and then on to…

Salutations™!! City Beverage, the Official Beer Sponsor of The Less Desirables, presents Hopslam Double IPA from Bells Brewery, The Less Desirables Beer of the Week. Yep, it’s Hopslam time.

Salutations™!! Our second The Man Who Ate the Town podcast with the awesome Kelly Bone as a cohost was awesome! She really brings life to the show and I look forward to doing it again. Sad news this week, though, Skippy’s Hot Dogs is unexpectedly closing and a popular barbecue joint in town is…
Salutations™!! I tell you what, Dear Reader. I am tired. I know that’s a recurring theme as of late. I’m always tired. But, this time it was because I was up late submitting those records into Discogs like I mentioned yesterday. Let me tell you, the foreign language ones were a major pain. I…
