Lindsey is out of town this week, so Kirk decides to bring in the legendary Mike Beyer —the man who once ate sushi with orange juice— to talk about diner food! Kirk and Mike grew up together in Cleveland and lived together in Chicago, home to some of the best diners in the country. Kirk and Mike discuss their love of the 1982 movie ‘Diner’ which influenced their love of the diner lifestyle, then debate what’s the best thing to order at a diner, what not to order at a diner (looking at you, fish), is a diner better at breakfast or late at night, is Denny’s really a diner, does diner food really need to be THAT good to be acceptable, and how wrong it is to order a salad at a diner?
