Applebees' Second Chance

We do our first remote podcast from Applebee’s in Westlake. Were we too hard on the restaurant on a previous show by comparing its entrees to dumpster dining? Perhaps not. A loud foul-mouthed woman prompts an apology from the management and a scare of having my setup confiscated. We end up at the mall playing on coin-op vehicles and somehow that makes it all better. For best results, listen with headphones. It makes ALL of the difference.

    Great show! Loved the kids!

    Sounds like dinner at the ballpark....good service, sub-par food and commentary by Marge Schott!

    The 5:00 rush you saw was the typical after-work drinkers. There are a lot of office buildings around there and it is fairly close to the highway as well.

    Westgate Mall is near where I grew up in Fairview Park. It had the first game room I ever went to during the 80's!

    It is sad that it is being leveled, but it is past its prime!

  2. What is the Podcaster's attraction to Applebees you ask? I pranked them at the end of my last show, too--I hope people don't think we are all selling out and secretly product-placing Applebees into our Podcasts....more Martinis over here, dammit!

    ~Great show, guys....
