On today's pod: David's back from Arizona, 1587 v. Shatto, Boru closed, Barrio closed, we talked about Irish bars for a while and somehow forgot to mention Kelly's (we regret the error), Costco Business Center, our fine sponsors at Farm to Market Bread Co., Liz went to Lawrence, Liz went to the Peachtree Cafeteria, literal AI slop, David recommends Sandbox Sessions, Liz is following priests who DJ, and David is mad about Minnesota.

Just under the year-end wire, we discuss: The Chiefs are moving to Kansas, Liz wrote a viral review of 1587, Dave Portnoy came to Kansas City to do pizza reviews, Second Best closed and we shan't discuss it again, Happy Gillis closed but probably that's good, Afterword closed and people have feelings, David went to Crossroads Cantina, we got Horned Up again, and we thank our fine sponsors at Farm to Market Bread Co.

Today on the pod: We discuss the Frank White vote before knowing the outcome, Liz took a ride on The Wheel, David did a story about drugs, behind the scenes of Turkeyleggman in the NYT, Cougar Club and millennial cringe, Cart Narcs, and an Instagram update that is surely going to get David canceled.

We're back after a completely unjustifiable six-week break with a nasty hourlong episode about the Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes restaurant, Corvino and W. VinZant, Horned Up returns, Tallow Corner, Of Course, Osteria Bianchi, Anjin, a very expensive GoFundMe, various influencers, and we close with Algorithm Corner.

Liz went to the James Beard Awards, David went to Excelsior Springs, too many people know what beef tallow and seed oils are, a weird pop-up bar closed, a Somera Road project has been revealed in the West Bottoms (WeBo), it's Jackson County property tax assessment season again, is the city overhyping the World Cup?, a local Tesla-related prosecution, it is hard not to like this Zohran guy, and Liz is now getting served Poop Content. Thank you to Farm to Market Bread Co., our wonderful sponsor.
