This week on the podcast, the Bayer siblings lament the demise of the Dunkin' Donuts in Solon where Jonah spent his teenage years with other young punks, talking about NOFX and eating Bavarian cream doughnuts. We explore why you need to tear down an entire building to build a drive-through, the rise of "grab and go" food culture (the breakfast crowd is lovin' it) and the rise of the "third place." We also discuss our own third places growing up, from the roller rink to friends' houses and explain why a cafe inside of a bank will never be a fun place to hang out, no matter how much the marketers want to convince you otherwise! We also deter into our teenaged fashion choices and if we ever truly felt cool as kids in any environment. Finally we play a round of CHANGE DOT DORK where we debate the merits of rebranding Chuck E. Cheese as an escape room, building a multi-purpose ice and roller skating rink in Kentucky and preventing Dunkin' Donuts from building a dive through in one community who values city planning over crullers.
