An all-star cast joins us for episode #089 on the Fort Worth Roots Podcast today as we sit down with two and half guests. Micki Windle, Darren Houk and a quick cameo from the legendary Mark A. Nobles! 

Here are the high notes: Battle of the Beards at the original Lolas location just before the move, Pop up markets with the Artful Village, Learnable moments from the first annual "River Oaks Springfest Carshow", The fun and expenses of running a 4x4 or rock climber. Also, what insurance to use for your high-octane personal Mars rover. Towards the end we talk about Lolas and the new Freds location and the new Grump's location in River Oaks. At the very end we talk a little about improvements to the streets in River Oaks Texas!
