On this bonus episode of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Alex Jensen, third-generation CEO of Burgermaster, the Puget Sound area drive-in restaurant chain, about the news today that the original Burgermaster in Seattle's Laurelhurst neighborhood will be closing permanently in February 2025.

The property has been sold and will be redeveloped; news of this potential closure was first shared with CASCADE OF HISTORY listeners when we did our first-ever LIVE REMOTE BROADCAST as the guest of Alex Jensen at this Burgermaster location in December 2025.

Please see the CASCADE OF HISTORY Facebook page for photos taken earlier today of the Burgermaster in Laurelhurst, and watch for news of another special LIVE REMOTE BROADCAST from that location in February.
