Once there was a dog, and it was hot. Then, there were more of these hot dogs, and they were pursued by insatiable eating machines that sought only their delicious destruction in horrifying numbers. Now, we celebrate these eating champions as gods among humanity, turning what could be months of school lunches for a child into 10 minutes of gladiatorial gastronomy! That's right, we're talking about the origins of Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest! Plus, the MouthGarf Report and I See What You Did There!

Noticias Económicas y Financieras Los niveles de deuda son una gran preocupación, ya que ambos candidatos presidenciales han sumado billones de dólares al déficit nacional durante sus primeros mandatos. Es un problema porque medidas como el aumento de impuestos y los recortes de gastos no son populares entre los contendientes que solo consideran cuatro años a la vez, mientras que puede llevar un tiempo sentir los mayores costos relacionados con el servicio de la deuda. De hecho, Estados Unidos tiene previsto gastar $892B en pagos de intereses en el año fiscal actual, más que la cifra destinada al gasto de defensa, y se prevé que esa cifra supere el billón de dólares en 2025, lo que está cerca del presupuesto total para Medicare. El legendario gladiador gastronómico Joey Chestnut no se atragantará con los perritos calientes empapados en el Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest de este año, el 4 de julio. Según ESPN, el 16 veces campeón acordó un acuerdo de patrocinio con Impossible Foods $IMPF, que fabrica alternativas vegetales a la carne y el pescado, incluidos los perritos calientes vegetales, lo que lo hace inelegible para competir. Los perritos calientes de Nathan son fabricados por Smithfield, una subsidiaria de la empresa china de procesamiento de carne y alimentos WH Group (OTCPK:WHGLY), pero el sitio del Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest sigue siendo propiedad privada de la familia del fundador Nathan Handwerker. La FDA ha aprobado Kisunla (donanemab) de Eli Lilly $LLY como tratamiento para la enfermedad de Alzheimer en sus inicios. La terapia, que se administra mediante infusión una vez al mes, costará 12.522 dólares durante seis meses o 32.000 dólares para un tratamiento más amplio durante un año. Kisunla competirá con Leqembi (lecanemab) de Biogen $BIIB y Eisai (OTCPK:ESAIY), que está disponible en Estados Unidos desde el año pasado. Las acciones de Eli Lilly no recibieron ningún impulso de las últimas noticias, ya que el presidente Biden y el senador Bernie Sanders instaron al gigante farmacéutico a reducir sustancialmente los precios y dejar de "estafar al pueblo estadounidense". La Comisión Federal de Comercio ha presentado una demanda para bloquear la compra por $4B que Tempur Sealy (NYSE: TPX) planea realizar del minorista Mattress Firm. Como mayor proveedor y fabricante de colchones del mundo, Tempur Sealy tendrá la capacidad y el incentivo para "suprimir la competencia" y aumentar los precios de los colchones para millones de consumidores, según la FTC. La empresa respondió que "la perspectiva no refleja todos los hechos y la ley relevantes", destacando que la industria de la ropa de cama es altamente competitiva. Otras fusiones y adquisiciones están bajo la lupa a raíz de la sentencia, como el acuerdo de Walmart $WMT para adquirir el fabricante de televisores Vizio $VZIO. La fortaleza de Tesla $TSLA hace que el Nasdaq cierre por encima de los 18.000 puntos. $MRNA Moderna firma un contrato para desarrollar una vacuna de mRNA contra la gripe aviar. $WMT Walmart explora la posible venta de centros de salud.

Nathan Handwerker, whose first job at age 6 was peddling knishes in what is now Poland, immigrated to New York when he was barely 20. He had no formal education, spoke no English and began his restaurant career as a dishwasher. Nathan built his empire with his determination and persistence and became a multi-millionaire. Here is his inspiring story.
In 1916 Nathan Handwerker created Nathan's Hot Dogs on Coney Island in New York. Now available worldwide and famous for its hot dog eating contests, there is a story to be told to Steve by Nathan's grandson, Lloyd Handwerker, author of Famous Nathan: A Family Saga of Coney Island, The American Dream, and the [...]

Nathan’s Famous will conduct the 2020 Fourth of July International Hot Dog-Eating Contest in Coney Island on Saturday, July 4, 2020. The annual contest, an American holiday tradition that traditionally has been held on the corner of Surf and Stillwell Avenues for generations, will take place in a private location with COVID-19 safety measures in place. It is one of the first major [televised] post-COVID competitive events to be held in the United States. The event will feature 10-minute competitions for leading male and female eaters, including Joey Chestnut of San Jose, CA, and Miki Sudo of Torrington, CT. Twelve-time champion Chestnut holds the world record of 74 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes. Sudo, whose all-time best is 41 hot dogs and buns, has won the contest six times. The women’s world record is 45 Nathan’s Famous hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes. This year, the contest -- which features an annual donation of 100,000 Nathan’s Famous hot dogs to Food Bank for New York City -- will be dedicated to raising funds for food banks and to raising awareness of food bank needs. Major League Eating and individual eaters will make donations to food banks and use the contest as a platform to highlight the work of these organizations. The contest also will be used as a platform to honor essential workers in New York City, many of whom have not received recognition for their efforts. On a typical July 4, thousands have made the pilgrimage to Surf and Stillwell Avenues in Coney Island to watch the event in person. While this is not possible this year, ESPN will air its 12 noon ET telecast of the contest, which routinely draws an audience of millions. Each of the contests will include five eaters, rather than the usual 15, to allow for social distancing. According to Major League Eating ("MLE") archives, the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest has occurred each July 4th in Coney Island, NY, since 1916, the year Nathan Handwerker opened the legendary restaurant. MLE, the governing body of all stomach-centric sport, sanctions the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Circuit and ensures the contests are judged professionally and that safety standards are in place at each event.

There were one area where you could only buy the hot dogs, one area where you could only get the drinks, and one area where you could only get the hamburgers -- unlike most fast food places, and what Nathan's does today.

Today's Guest: Filmmaker Lloyd Handwerker, director of the documentary Famous Nathan, about his grandfather Nathan Handwerker, founder of the Coney Island landmark, Nathan's. Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Lloyd Handwerker by clicking on the video player above! Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of Famous Nathan’s countermen who won’t be putting up with any bullsh*t from the likes of you, fella… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Growing up in New Jersey, my grandparents frequently took me by bus and train out to Brooklyn to visit my Great-Aunt Bess and Great-Uncle Max. Sometimes, we stayed in their tiny apartment and Aunt Bess cooked. But sometimes, my grandfather and I went off and spent the day at Coney Island, riding the rides and eating a hot dog and fries at the block-long Nathan’s Famous hot dog stand right on the boardwalk. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. LLOYD HANDWERKER podcast excerpt: "There was no semblance of a line at Nathan's. There were one area where you could only buy the hot dogs, one area where you could only get the drinks, and one area where you could only get the hamburgers -- unlike most fast food places, and what Nathan's does today. It might seem chaotic, but workers had a method of looking at the crowd and figuring out who they were going to serve next." You can LISTEN to this interview with filmmaker LLOYD HANDWERKER, director of the documentary of FAMOUS NATHAN, by clicking the audio player above! Last night, I watched Lloyd Handwerker’s documentary film, Famous Nathan, and it brought all the memories – the tastes, the smells and the sights – rushing back to me. Handwerker is the grandson of the founder of Nathan’s, Nathan Handwerker. And while he himself never worked in the family business, he has put together a movie packed with old film, pictures and interviews that immediately took me back in time to a place I treasured visiting with my own grandfather. Or, as I told my wife, it took me to a place I had recalled hundreds of times in dreams and never thought I’d see that way again. LLOYD HANDWERKER podcast excerpt: "My grandfather was the first to integrate the counter, around 1949. Coney Island was pretty segregated at that time." To quote the film’s description of Nathan Handwerker: “There was one Babe Ruth in baseball, one Einstein in science, and one Nathan in the food business.” Famous Nathan captures a moment – and a salty, kosher taste – in time, replete with enough dirty family laundry – this brother hated that one! Mama never loved Papa! So-and-so was cheap! -- to give anyone a delicious nosh, whether you’ve ever been to Coney Island or not. Key interview moments: • 6:10 Making sense of the chaos that also made Nathan's of Coney Island famous (besides the hot dogs); • 14:40 Why there is no biography of Nathan Handwerker; • 27:25 How the founder of Nathan's integrated his food counter.
