Think of this as the Page Six episode of our interview with Patrick and Marina Fiore of Le Petit Café. After we learn about their relationship with a curious building on the near west side and with TD's CDs and LPs, we get into the celebrity sightings. Of course, we are treated with a few Mellencamp moments, but they also take us in the wayback machine to the cast of Breaking Away and to other famous musicians who have dropped in to the cafe over the years.

Thank you to our sponsors, Gretchen and Ruth Nall and Bloomington Rentals and Realty for their support of the pod.

And thanks as usual to badknees
