Our producer gives us a hand-tossed question this week: Who has the best pizza? It didn't take long for us to generate a sizable list of the best pizza spots in Iowa, from Norwalk to Dubuque. Get out a pen & paper and make a plan to eat your way across the state on a pizza road trip. We probably missed a few of your favorites, so drop them in the comments and we'll get to 'em eventually!

We almost didn't get this episode off the ground because Jocó was traumatized by getting a new iPhone, but we eventually made it around to arguing about bands that we just don't "get" and probably never will. Then we get newsy and lament the sad state of local journalism. We grew up watching the 6 o'clock news and grabbing the local daily off the front porch, so it's hard to wrap our brains around how to rebuild this much-needed part of civic life. Get ready to cross the Borderline with a lively discussion about our go-to karaoke songs. You'll be particularly impressed by John's choice...bay-bee.

Because she just can't get enough, our producer digs deeper with a pop question for us. Take a trip down memory lane as we recall our favorite childhood candy and realize that, despite our shared GenX upbringing, we can still surprise each other with something as simple as smashing a frozen Charleston Chew. Sweet dreams, everyone!
