You Talking to Menu?!

You Talking to Menupodcasters.spotify.com
You Talking to Me(nu)?! is a show about wanting what you can’t have. In this case, what these Brooklyn-based hosts can’t have is easy access to the majority of America’s most beloved chain restaurants. So they talk about the menus instead.
