On this episode of National Podcast Day, we come to you again from WI- truly the center of America's breadbasket, but sadly not its bagel heartland. Here, people of course consume bagels but generally without the passion or emphasis on authenticity that defines true bagel lovers.

Hope we inspire you to support your local bagel place and/or make your own bagels, as we did TWICE for this episode.
