No Nut November + the 69th Restaurant! Nice!

Note: One of the mics wasn't working properly. It should sound fine, but Dana is a little quieter than I would've liked. Apologies in advance.

Note #2: This was also recorded before the decision was made to shake up the show's format this season, so it's the final episode to contain "This Is Way Too Much," "What's Going On Over There?" and no super awesome cold opens.

• Sam's Hofbrau is technically a strip club, but not based on what we experienced! I brought adult film star Ryan Keely and Dana Scarborough of the I Seduce the Dragon podcast to the strip club for the food which is like reading Playboy for the articles!
• A metal detector that everyone's setting off, and no one's doing anything about it
• Ryan details why we legally weren't able to see any nips
• "It's my first day"
• What's Going On Over There with Herbert asking an actively-dancing stripper to do a pull-up??
• What we ate: Street tacos, hamburger, breakfast sandwich, wings, fries, & coffee
• Ryan trashes J.W. Marriott while Dana lauds Korean BBQ in the Calibration Station
• Ryan tries to cause chaos by unrigging and rerigging the You-Must Bowl drawing to force me to go somewhere of her choosing next week
• "Fine" Dining is now on video! Head on over to my YouTube to watch this episode!
