About this listen
Officially opened in 1949, Springfield's Cozy Dog Drive-In claims to be the home of the first batter-fried hot dog on a stick, and having born witness to over seventy years of transitions, ranks amongst Route 66's most beloved institutions. Now in its third-generation of family ownership, we'll learn of its history from past and present proprietors Buz and Josh Waldmire. Artist William Crook Jr. also joins us to pay tribute to his friend and contemporary Bob Waldmire, for whom The Cozy Dog stands as an informal living memorial. Through stories both touching and humorous, we'll learn why this seemingly low frills establishment has earned the right to be called "iconic."
