Tonight @BottlerocketPgh we’re screening our @wqed documentary @PBSFood special titled A HOT DOG PROGRAM. Some folks are sporting their “Sebak Is My Homeboy” t-shirts and @mikeasper even has Sebak socks! (Rumor has it that there are 3 pairs in existence.)

Coming up on WQED Pittsburgh in just a few minutes: THINGS THAT ARE STILL HERE from 1999! Lots of cool spots (several of which have disappeared or closed in the intervening years!) but still fun to watch! Tune in now?!

I ran into Chris Snyder recently and he asked if I might have a copy of his promo for KENNYWOOD MEMORIES. I didn’t remember it. He said he lost his old VHS copy. Well, I never throw anything away, and I recently found the tape with uncut video of his several takes. He’s good.
When it comes to #Pittsburgh nostalgia, nothing quite hits like @rickaroundhere's 1988 ode to summer, "Kennywood Memories!" Check out this newly-unearthed, wave swingin' WQED #TuesdayTimeMachine video! 🤣🎢🍟🍦🖤💛 facebook.com/watch/?v=122427… @Kenny_Kangaroo

France’s President Emanuel Macron is having dinner tonight at The White House in DC. It’s fun to remember when he had dinner at Mad Mex at the corner of Bates and Atwood Streets in Oakland 16 years ago!
Thanks to Mark Houser!

After two glorious weeks of goofing off in NC, I’m back @IndependentPGH in Squirrel Hill tonight, playing vinyl LPs. I think 99% of the records I brought were purchased while I was on the road. Vacation Vinyl! Tune in at twitch.tv/independentpgh to listen and watch!

When your old friends (and former Regent Square neighbors!) Annie and Zavo come to town from Chicago, where do you go for lunch? And what do you have?
You go to D's Six Pax & Dogz.
And you eat a Chicago dog.
