This week, we're looking at the history that links these two bridges together forever.

  • The Debate: Hoosier Hospitable or Buckeye Branded

    Send us Fan Mail

    With the busy Memorial Day weekend, we decided this week's episode would be completely unscripted. Working from a couple of articles from Only in Your State, we look at some tale-tell signs that characterize where we grew up, and we see if one of us is truly more Hoosier and the other more Buckeye. And plot twist--pancakes are involved.
