Peak City Podcast - spotlighting Apex, N.C., the Peak of Good Living
Former Apex Town Councilmember Bill Jensen with Jason Riddle and Shane Reese by Peak City Podcast
Hey All and thanks for joining me again on this week's Industry Night. So excited to spend this month at Tony & Joe's down on the waterfront in Georgetown. If you live in the DMV or have ever visited this city chances are you've been here. They have one of the best patios. It looks out on the Potomac with views of the Kennedy Center. Seriously on a gorgeous day you want to sit out on that patio with a tray of fresh shucked oysters and a glass of Rose and watch the boats go by. So special thanks as always to Greg Casten for being such a tremendous supporter of me, this show and the work that I do. I'm going to chat with Greg in a minute about the history of Tony and Joes and Tony - Greg's Uncle Tony - who was such a character and just recently passed away. Later in the show, I'll be chatting with good friend and wine authority Winn Roberton. Winn runs the show at Michael Mina's Bourbon steak and I love talking wine with him. And by the end of today's show, you will too. But first — one of my favorite things to do is talk about where I am eating and I kid you not, I have been seriously out and about and eating all the good things — mostly! -I celebrated the Lunar New Year with Scott Drewno & Danny Lee at Chiko for their Lunar New Year Tea — They brought in Jill Nguyen of Capitol Jill Baking and Caroline Ta of Sweets by Caroline — ginger scones, dumplings, tea sandwiches and milk buns -Popped into Fiola for a glass of Mt Etna Bianco & airy gnocchi -Love a Rasika check in and on a Friday it is hopping -I've been to Moon Rabbit twice in the last two weeks — it is that good — you may have listened to my show with Kevin Tien & Susan Bae and team that I did there before they opened and everything that we talked about — their intention, commitment, passion — it all ends up on the plate. There's also a really sunny vibe — they are all so happy to be there and be open and be serving delicious mod -Vietnamese. Do not miss the pate chaud or any of Susan's desserts. -I stopped by Tail Up Goat. They are now doing a tasting menu only in the dining room so I just sat at the bar had a wonderful glass of La Croix Gratiot Les Zazous — a truly lovely white that Bill Jensen recommended. He also poured me a funky wine - Sipon from Slovenia — and of course he poured me a riesling because it makes him crazy that I don't like it an I have to tell you — he didn't even try. He poured me a riesling that had a sweet finish and I was like you gotta be kidding me. When I bring in Winn we are going to talk about Somms and their love of riesling Last one — although I have so many more places that I have been — I went to Service Bar. Now if you know me you know I'm not really a cocktail drinker. But it had been a minute since I had been in and I was looking forward to catching up with Christine Kim. Again, the city was pretty lit up. U Street had bars filled and people waiting on lines to get in and other people pouring out of the bars. So fun. They play amazing music and if you are a cocktail drinker while the place looks like a hole in the wall — the cocktails are thoughtful, balanced and well made Okay! On to today's show! When you are at Bourbon Steak there is a very tall individual walking around busily taking care of all the patrons — you cannot miss Winn Roberton the head sommelier at Bourbon Steak. And there's over 750 labels on that wine list! A local boy! Raised in Washington, DC, Winn's journey into the world of wine started as a server at Bourbon Steak in 2008. Quotes "Turning this complex into an island demanded unique efforts. Sometimes, reaching it required a boat, reflecting resilience and determination." - Winn Roberton "I love sparkling wine, especially champagne. It's versatile and food-friendly, my go-to choice both at home and when I'm out." - Winn Roberton Chapters 00:00 - Introduction 03:50 - Rasika: A Culinary Delight with Vibrant Flavors 06:42 - Service Bar: Crafted Cocktails and Inviting Ambiance 16:06 - Embarking on a Journey through Hospitality and Wine 20:43 - Decoding the Intricacies of Wine Flavors 29:14 - Fostering Wine Conversations and Building Connections 29:58 - Exploring and Navigating the Vast World of Wine 35:14 - Unpacking the Nuances of Hospitality, Tea, and Wine Lists 37:01 - Discovering the World of Unique Sparkling Wines 39:28 - Revealing Champagne Secrets for Enthusiasts 44:10 - Anticipating Future Changes in the Business Landscape 49:53 - Conclusion Guests Social Media Links: Winn Roberton Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bourbonsteakdc?igsh=enR3dGF0bmcyOGd6 Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/bourbonsteakdc Website: https://www.fourseasons.com/washington/dining/restaurants/bourbon_steak/ Featuring Nycci Nellis https://www.instagram.com/nyccinellis/ https://www.thelistareyouonit.com/ Powered by Heartcast Media http://www.heartcastmedia.com
Bill Jensen – A generational calling, growing up in Petersburg's Fisheries Bill joins us today on location in Tropical Akutan Alaska. Sharing his experiences growing up in Petersburg, like many others from a multi-generational fishing family. Starting out with gillnet trips to Horns Cliff with his dad to family vacations longlining in Chatham Straits. Bill now has feet in both sides of the fisheries, occasionally vacationing on local boats and working Refrigeration for a processing company, freezing the catch he used to bring in.
Michelin's 2021 Washington, DC Sommelier Award Winner Bill Jensen is the Co-Owner & Beverage Director of Tail Up Goat & Reveler's Hour in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, DC. He loves Riesling so much that he is on the Steering Committee for FLXcursion, an International Riesling Expo in the Finger Lakes — which we will get into, cause you all know how I feel about Riesling — is not my thing. At the height of the pandemic lockdown, Bill got creative and launched the widely beloved Tail Up Goat Wine School. He believes and I quote “that drinking should be an act of replenishment, renewal, and discovery, and that wine functions best when it is not only about what's in the glass but becomes the sum of the place and the people who produce it” and I love that sentiment. In fact I love it so much that while talking with Bill about what's happening in the wine & restaurant worlds WineLair's Alissa Pelkola blind-pours us a few wines to see how good our palates really are. Quotes I think standardizing wages for people in the front and the back of the house and doing it in a more equitable way, in a more. Consistent weight will ultimately make for a better industry. - Bill We always hope that people treat the restaurant and hospitality industry as a career with same professionalism as other businesses - Bill Our Guests Bill Jensen https://www.revelershour.com/universe https://www.instagram.com/universeinaglass Featuring Nycci Nellis https://www.instagram.com/nyccinellis https://www.thelistareyouonit.com Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:54 Experience in Waldorf Astoria 05:33 Introducing Alissa Pelkola 06:35 Alissa's role 08:10 Wine list and wine pairing 09:39 Handling wines in special occasions 12:12 Bill getting into wine business 19:57 Wine tasting 25:19 Wine program 30:22 More wine tasting 37:56 Service charge and fees 48:42 Wine feedback 51:05 Links and resources Produced by Heartcast Media http://www.heartcastmedia.com

Here's where the new terrain will sit - you can see Jake's landing looker's right, and Flathead rising looker's left:And here's an overhead view of the new terrain:Update [11/24/2022]: the new trailmapWhy I interviewed himIt sits inconspicuous and unassuming, 13 air miles and 49 road miles south of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Five hundred acres in a 5,000-acre resort. Step off your plane at Salt Lake airport and you're 40 minutes away from half a dozen powder bangers and this is not one of them. It's Sundance. “Isn't that that film fiestival?” Epkon Bro asks as he punches Park City into his GPS. “No time for that on my HASHTAG POWDY TOWN TRIP!”And that's OK. We won't be needing Epkon Bro for today's stop. Because where we're going today is Utah before Utah skiing went nuclear. Before the California invasion. Before this state with just 15 ski areas became third in the nation in annual skier visits. When Snowbird opened in 1971, Utah had 1.1 million residents. Today it has 3.1 million. On any given Saturday, every single one of them is angling their SUV toward the mouth of the Cottonwoods.Except everyone skiing Sundance. Here's the locals bump we all wish we had: 300 inches of snow, 2,000-plus feet of vert, owners with the cash Gatlings blowing full auto. Everyone else, somewhere else. Most of the tourists. Most of the Salt Locals. Certainly the Epkon hordes, trying to ski their passes down to $5 a day. So, here it is: Utah skiing before all the things that changed Utah skiing, mostly for the worse. Twenty years ago? Thirty? Who cares. You found it. Enjoy it.What we talked aboutEarly snow in the West; from breakfast waiter to running the resort; when big brother takes you skiing; Sundance in the 1970s; setting yourself apart when you're the ski area down the road from the Wasatch; the longest-tenured ski resort employee in the country?; Timp Haven; enter Robert Redford; the resort's expanse and legacy of conservation; working for Redford; the origins and impact of the Sundance Film Festival; why Redford sold Sundance; a profile of the new owners; industry veteran Bill Jensen's impact on the resort; Sundance's rapid and radical transformation under its new owners; the fantastically weird Ray's lift and why the mountain finally upgraded it; bringing back the old Mandan lift unload and corresponding terrain; breaking down the new alignments for Stairway and Outlaw; why Red's isn't a high-speed lift; the massive new lift project Sundance is planning next and the potential terrain expansion that could go with that; what the new lift would mean for Flathead; why Outlaw ended up as a quad, rather than a six-pack; how Outlaw ended up running chairs from Big Sky's Swift Current quad; why the resort retired the Navajo lift in 1995, and brought back a similar lift called Jake's a decade ago; why Jake's runs on a different line than Navajo; Jake's odd lower mid-station; re-thinking the road that runs beneath Jake's; Sundance's huge snowmaking expansion; going deep on Sundance's Wildwood expansion and new lift; the return of hot bread and honey-butter; potential far-future expansion; upgrading the Bearclaw lodge; night-skiing; whether Sundance could expand its group of season pass reciprocal partners; and the possibility of Sundance joining Indy Pass.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewA decade ago, Sundance was a relic. Old lifts. Slow lifts. Fixed-grip lifts all. A handle tow at the bottom. No carpets. One chair out of the base: the unbelievable Ray's, a mile-long up-and-over doozy with two midstations and a ride time longer than the State of the Union. Some snowmaking. Not a lot. Not enough.Two years ago, longtime owner Robert Redford sold the joint. The new owners brought in Bill Jensen, a U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Famer and onetime overlord of Breckenridge, Vail, Telluride, and Intrawest. Overnight, they smashed the place to bits and remade it in the image of a modern ski resort: Ray's demolished (it's going to live on at Lookout Pass), in its place a high-speed quad up the frontside – all the way up the frontside, to where the Mandan lift once landed – and a short connector lift in back; expanded night-skiing; dramatically expanded snowmaking; a trio of progression carpets at the base; more parking. This year: a 10-trail, 15-acre beginner-focused expansion. On its way out next: the 47-year-old Flathead triple. With what? You'll have to listen to the podcast for details on that.Once Flathead goes, Sundance will have one of the newest lift fleets on the continent (Redford did replace Arrowhead with a lift called Red's in 2016, and put in a new lift called Jake's in 2012), a reliable and modern collection buffeted by an ever-evolving snowmaking system that can defend the place from its relatively low elevation. It will have better skier flow, and (probably) more terrain for them to ski on.What it won't have are any of the ever-increasing numbers of Epkon Bros. The ones who won't ski anywhere off-pass. The ones obsessed with stats and biggest-tallest-most. The ones how don't mind company.Sundance is building something different. And it's something worth trying. What I got wrongI asked Chad why Jake's lift did not have a mid-station, like the old Navajo lift. Jake's does have a mid-station, of course, but it's just a touch higher than the bottom load. What I'd meant to ask was this, “why doesn't Jake's have a mid-mountain mid-station, as Navajo had?” I also incorrectly stated that Jake's followed the same line as Navajo, which was a bad reading of the trailmap on my part. Regardless, we sort it all out on the pod.Why you should ski SundanceIt's worth going a bit deeper on passes here, as Utah has what is probably the most mature megapass market of any major ski hub in America. All 14 of the state's major commercial ski areas are affiliated with one pass or another, including Sundance:If you've never heard of the Power Pass, it's the season pass for Mountain Capital Partners eight ski areas: Arizona Snowbowl, Purgatory, Hesperus, Brian Head, Nordic Valley, Sipapu, Pajarito, and Willamette Pass. Like the Ikon Pass, which includes Alterra's 14 ski areas plus a bunch of partners, the Power Pass has some add-ons: Copper Mountain, Loveland, Monarch, and Sundance. Here's the full roster:Anyway, it's a relatively low-volume regional pass, in no danger of overrunning Sundance or any other partner.Sundance doesn't have the elevation, snowfall totals, or sheer size of its megapass neighbors just to its north, but it doesn't have their crowds either, and it has just enough of those other things to make the skiing interesting. On weekends, on holidays, on fight-for-your-life LCC powder days, this is your post-up spot, an alternative where you can rack vert without really worrying about it and without really trying.Podcast notesSundance has one of the most interesting lift histories in the country. Most ski areas simply drop new lifts on their old lines. Sundance rarely does that, instead shuffling machines all over the mountain to try different configurations. Here's what the mountain looked like in 1988:In 1995, they removed the Navajo and Mandan doubles and installed the wacky Ray's, which landed lower than Mandan before curling over the mountain's backside:By 2012, Sundance realized it needed a second out-of-base lift again, and it build the Jake's quad. This lands approximately where Navajo did decades earlier, but follows a shorter line, starting from the newer, upper parking lots:Interestingly, the new Red's quad, built in 2016, follows approximately the same line as the Arrowhead triple, the 1985 Yan lift that it replaced, but Outlaw and Stairway both follow different lines than Ray's, with different load, unload, and mid-station points. Don't expect a direct replacement for Flathead either – Linebaugh outlines what that dramatic change will look like in the podcast.The Storm publishes year-round, and guarantees 100 articles per year.

Visitors to Sundance Mountain Resort this winter have found a wonderful new experience at one of Utah's great hidden gems. Working with the experienced Sundance team, legendary ski industry leader Bill Jensen has helped them transform the resort with new lifts, terrain, snowmaking and much more. Jensen, a longtime visionary who has led some of North America's most notable resorts, talked to Ski Utah's Last Chair about his storied career and the fun he's having coaching the team at Sundance.After stewarding Sundance for over a half-century, film legend Robert Redford sold his interest in December 2020 after carefully curating potential buyers to ensure his legacy would remain. The new investors included Broadreach Capital Partners and Cedar Capital Partners. But what was most important for skiers and riders was the inclusion of Jensen as a partner.While he didn't discover skiing until he was 19 in southern California, Jensen quickly grew passionate about the sport, starting his career at Mammoth Mountain as a liftie. In the decades since then he's hopscotched around in leadership roles from Vail to Whistler to Telluride and Intrawest. In 2019, he was inducted into the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame.In his new role, he fell in love with Sundance the day he hiked up to the top of Ray's Lift and then up to Mandan Summit. His vision came clear in an instant when he soaked in the view of Mt. Timpanogos from Mandan.This winter skiers were treated to a host of positive upgrades: The new high-speed Outlaw Express taking skiers from base to Mandan Summit in just seven minutes. New beginner and intermediate terrain off Mandan offering stunning new views and options. Check out Broadway! A new beginner area with three magic carpets. A new return lift, Stairway, from the back mountain along with a new run allowing Bear Claw to base skiing or riding. The new Lookout restaurant with stunning views of Timp from the base. New snow guns as part of an upgraded snowmaking system, including a water holding pond. While he's been the top executive of the biggest ski resort companies in North America, he remains a true mountain guy always anxious to take visitors up on the mountain. Here are a few teasers from the interview. Check out the full conversation on Last Chair, available through all podcast platforms.Bill, you had a bit of a non-traditional introduction to skiing.Unfortunately, later than most people I know. Born in Hawaii and grew up in Southern California. When I was 19, for some reason I walked into a Sports Ltd. store in Woodland hills. They were showing the K2 Performers video. I saw skiing for the first time and was fascinated. I just went, ‘wow, this is incredible.' So I went skiing that winter one day, and that was it.I'll bet you were pretty excited to get a job as a liftie?It just connects you to people, and, candidly, it was fun! So that's where it all started. It was all happenstance. I had no idea that a ski area was even a business. I just saw it as some great recreational fun pursuit. And I just - I fell in love. You know, I always say, I love skiing, but I became passionate about the ski industry and the business and that's where things unfolded.You've lived in some great ski towns: Mammoth, Sun Valley, Whistler, Vail, Breckenridge. What has attracted you to those towns?In small towns, you get to know a lot of people. And I also like the fact that people depend on each other, whether it was helping them split their firewood or snow removal or whatever. You built relationships and,in ski towns, there's a common denominator that everybody loves snow and they love sliding on snow, whether they snowboard or ski now. But, you know, I just felt very comfortable in that environment. Living in a ski town, to me, just fit my ... who I was and my persona. I really like small mountain communities.What did it mean to be honored in the Hall of Fame?It's touching. It's gratifying. It wasn't something that you aspire to. I really believe in the sport. I believe that the skier is important and I've worked hard over my career to mentor people and bring new people into the business and see their careers grow. And that has been the most fulfilling part of my career.When you visited Sundance in 2020, what stood out to you?You know the word, and I don't want it to be overused, but just the sense of arrival and walking through the base - there's something magical about this resort and part of it is the environment it sits in, Mount Timp and the views. It is truly one of very few unique ski areas that have this setting. And because it was Robert Redford's business, it really was a family business, is what I would call it.

Today, Robert Redford's Sundance is a wonderful blend of art, nature and skiing. Sundance may be a small ski area, but it skis big. President and General Manager Chad Linebaugh will take you on a tour of his favorite Sundance runs in his conversation with host Tom Kelly, plus some little known facts about the famous actor.
Visitors to Sundance Mountain Resort this winter have found a wonderful new experience at one of Utah's great hidden gems. Working with the experienced Sundance team, legendary ski industry leader Bill Jensen has helped them transform the resort with new lifts, terrain, snowmaking and much more. Jensen, a longtime visionary who has led some of North America's most notable resorts, talked to Ski Utah's Last Chair about his storied career and the fun he's having coaching the team at Sundance.After stewarding Sundance for over a half-century, film legend Robert Redford sold his interest in December 2020 after carefully curating potential buyers to ensure his legacy would remain. The new investors included Broadreach Capital Partners and Cedar Capital Partners. But what was most important for skiers and riders was the inclusion of Jensen as a partner.While he didn't discover skiing until he was 19 in southern California, Jensen quickly grew passionate about the sport, starting his career at Mammoth Mountain as a liftie. In the decades since then he's hopscotched around in leadership roles from Vail to Whistler to Telluride and Intrawest. In 2019, he was inducted into the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame.In his new role, he fell in love with Sundance the day he hiked up to the top of Ray's Lift and then up to Mandan Summit. His vision came clear in an instant when he soaked in the view of Mt. Timpanogos from Mandan.This winter skiers were treated to a host of positive upgrades: The new high-speed Outlaw Express taking skiers from base to Mandan Summit in just seven minutes. New beginner and intermediate terrain off Mandan offering stunning new views and options. Check out Broadway! A new beginner area with three magic carpets. A new return lift, Stairway, from the back mountain along with a new run allowing Bear Claw to base skiing or riding. The new Lookout restaurant with stunning views of Timp from the base. New snow guns as part of an upgraded snowmaking system, including a water holding pond. While he's been the top executive of the biggest ski resort companies in North America, he remains a true mountain guy always anxious to take visitors up on the mountain. Here are a few teasers from the interview. Check out the full conversation on Last Chair, available through all podcast platforms.Bill, you had a bit of a non-traditional introduction to skiing.Unfortunately, later than most people I know. Born in Hawaii and grew up in Southern California. When I was 19, for some reason I walked into a Sports Ltd. store in Woodland hills. They were showing the K2 Performers video. I saw skiing for the first time and was fascinated. I just went, ‘wow, this is incredible.' So I went skiing that winter one day, and that was it.I'll bet you were pretty excited to get a job as a liftie?It just connects you to people, and, candidly, it was fun! So that's where it all started. It was all happenstance. I had no idea that a ski area was even a business. I just saw it as some great recreational fun pursuit. And I just - I fell in love. You know, I always say, I love skiing, but I became passionate about the ski industry and the business and that's where things unfolded.You've lived in some great ski towns: Mammoth, Sun Valley, Whistler, Vail, Breckenridge. What has attracted you to those towns?In small towns, you get to know a lot of people. And I also like the fact that people depend on each other, whether it was helping them split their firewood or snow removal or whatever. You built relationships and,in ski towns, there's a common denominator that everybody loves snow and they love sliding on snow, whether they snowboard or ski now. But, you know, I just felt very comfortable in that environment. Living in a ski town, to me, just fit my ... who I was and my persona. I really like small mountain communities.What did it mean to be honored in the Hall of Fame?It's touching. It's gratifying. It wasn't something that you aspire to. I really believe in the sport. I believe that the skier is important and I've worked hard over my career to mentor people and bring new people into the business and see their careers grow. And that has been the most fulfilling part of my career.When you visited Sundance in 2020, what stood out to you?You know the word, and I don't want it to be overused, but just the sense of arrival and walking through the base - there's something magical about this resort and part of it is the environment it sits in, Mount Timp and the views. It is truly one of very few unique ski areas that have this setting. And because it was Robert Redford's business, it really was a family business, is what I would call it. And you can sense that in the culture, the staff and the people who are here. My sense is everyone feels a bit of a sense of ownership of Sundance and how it's played a role in their lives.What was the vision for the new alignment of Outlaw Express to Mandan Summit?When you're on the top of Mandan, it feels like you can just reach out and touch it (Timpanogos). It made a lot of sense for us to actually implement that lift alignment and put it all together. It was a bit more expensive than just putting something back in the place of Ray's lift.

Tomorrow said NO to today sometime in the year 2020. It refused the handoff to carry business-as-usual into the Future, according to our guest Bill Jensen, author of the new book “The Day Tomorrow Said No.” Jensen’s research suggests that only one in ten of today’s employees can achieve their dreams in their current jobs. Worse, dreams are fading fast for millions of people as up to ½ of all jobs will be gone. 375 million people are at risk of being left behind.

(8:00) -The way you focus on time is to respect the fact that everyone only gets 1,440 minutes in one day. (9:30) -Only 9.8% of people surveyed said they can achieve their dreams where they currently work. (21:30) -The two components of simplicity are empathy and storytelling. (7:00) -We can teach anybody anything. We can give anybody any problem if we give it to them at their level, not ours. (4:30) -Three years from now, you will have a lifetime worth of change to deliver. What is the legacy you want to leave behind? (18:30) -2020 has taught us that we need to focus on personal impact. (25:00) Bill has spent the last 30 years studying the best ways work can get done. He is a passionate simpleton who is against corporate stupidity that wastes people's time, attention, and dreams. Some of the biggest topics Bill covers with his work are the top essentials for leading people into tomorrow, creating cultural agility with digital transformation, and developing focus, speed, and clarity in today's crazy world. Bill has worked with numerous large corporations on these topics, including American Express, GE, IBM, and SAP.

The buzz: Stressed? Join the crowd. 78% of employers in the 2013/14 Staying@Work™ Survey said stress is the #1 workforce risk. We have a solution: Radical Resiliency. But individuals, managers and senior executives face tough challenges in achieving it for themselves, their employees and their culture. How to overcome and prevail? The experts speak Eileen McDargh, The Resiliency Group: “It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like ‘What about lunch?'” (Winnie the Pooh). Bill Jensen, Mr. Simplicity: “What we leave behind is not as important as how we lived” (Capt. Jean Luc Picard). Dr. Terry Paulson, Paulson and Associates: “A healthy person goes 'Yes,' 'No,' and 'Whoopee!' An unhealthy person goes 'Yes, but,' 'No, but,' and 'No whoopee' (Eric Berne). Kathy Dempsey, Keep Shedding!: “Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened” [Dr. Seuss]. Join us for Radical Resiliency: Start Your Engines, People! – Part 2.

The buzz: Bouncing back. Stress is such an epidemic that 78% of employers in the 2013/2014 Staying@Work™ Survey identified it as the top workforce risk factor. Are some of us better equipped to be resilient, while others are more prone to feel overwhelmed? The bigger question: is resiliency a genetic trait or a set of skill-based competencies that can be taught, practiced and used daily? The experts speak. Eileen McDargh, The Resiliency Group: “In a time of change it is the learners who inherit the earth while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to live in a world that no longer exists” (Eric Hoffer). Bill Jensen, Mr. Simplicity: “What we leave behind is not as important as how we lived” (Captain Jean Luc Picard, Star Trek). Sherryanne Meyer, ASUG: “Monty: Why did you say that I was a loser?

This week...the Death of a Legend! No, we're not talking about Scott finally losing at the Loudest Belch In America contest, which he has won for the last five years in row, or Mike stepping down as the official "I Can't Believe I Ate The Whole Thing!" mascot for Papa Johns. This time out -- one of the original heroes of Earth-2 dies! Before that, though, Scott gives you the 411 on the marriage of the Earth-2 Superman to Lois Lane in the pages of ACTION COMICS #484, which leads to some lively conversation between the hosts. Then it is time for the e-mails. Thrill to the readings of feedback in which two participants climb up on the soapbox leaving Scott and Mike to delightedly cheer them on!! Truly, Tales of the JSA has THE BEST LISTENERS EVER! It's been proven by science, I tells ya! Afterwards, the guys move into issue 461 and 462 of Adventure Comics and boy, did they like this story! Oh, sure they have their fair share of pithy comments and Mike offends every listener with an overbite!! (Seriously, just because the guy had a really bad overbite when he was a kid, now that his teeth aren't all jacked up he feels like he can make fun of others??! Mike can be such a jerk sometimes.) The guys also tackle the tough issues... like how Jay Garrick is an insensitive ass or Wildcat's politically incorrect opinion on "a woman's place" or how everyone wears their costume even when they're eating or why Chief O'Hara is an out and out coward or how Bill Jensen is a big fat whiner or, sadly, how a legend can die. It's really very sad. Yes, it is. Bring your hankey. Lastly, the guys go over the Daily Planet page from Adventure Comics #462 before catching you up on "Elsewhere in the DCU". Man, there some fantastic covers discussed! Epically awesome covers! Plus, Mike gets to bitch about something that has ALWAYS bothered him about the movie THE LOST BOYS and discover why Scott still wants a comic book adaptation of SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE and ponders the dream team that should produce it. No Hostess ad this week. Yeah, the guys are pretty bummed about it too... NOTE -- The Two True Freaks! now have a phone line where you can call and leave a completely inappropriate message - We just might use it on the show! It's 585-COP-LURE!!
