Strolling down the nostalgic avenues of Burbank, Dick Dornan joins Ross Benson and Craig Sherwood as we savor the memories of our city's beloved, bygone eateries an a new podcast series coming soon. We're mingling our cherished recollections with the buzz of today's local scene—debating everything from the fate of diseased trees to Chili John's spirited quest to serve alcohol. It's a blend of warm nostalgia and hot-off-the-press community updates that only true Burbankians can appreciate.

Our town's heartbeat is its people, and this episode shines a spotlight on those who enrich our daily lives behind the scenes. We're raising a toast to Burbank Unified's Teacher of the Year, Teri Vargas, and diving into the high-stakes world of sports broadcasting with our statistics guru, Dick. As we celebrate our unseen heroes, from airport first responders to the support staff of live shows, we're reminded that every cog in the Burbank wheel is indispensable.

We then pivot to the city's evolving canvas, scrutinizing everything from underutilized properties to the bustling small business scene that pumps vitality into our local economy. As we weave through talks of new hotel developments and public safety, we're offering a candid take on the not-so-polite dance of traffic etiquette. And, as we consider the leaps in women's basketball and the diverse voices contributing to our discourse, we're connecting the dots of Burbank's vibrant community tapestry. Join us on 'Burbank Talks' for these stories, woven with the personal threads that unite us all.
