Today we discuss food critics with cook, food writer, comedian and host of The Macaroni Zone, Danny Palumbo! It's hard to imagine a world before Yelp and Trip Advisor but it was no less dramatic and involved a lot of wigs.

Taxes are a topic that make regular folks run for the hills but service industry folks are a special breed that really really REALLY gets freaky when this topic pops up.

Joining us today to help untangle this web of confusion is dear friend and host of the Brass Taxes Podcast, Caroline Creaghead!!
