September 11, 1996, will forever be remembered by the people of Spanish Fork. While normally a peaceful place, the controversial and political rock band Rage Against the Machine shook the town to its very core when they performed here. A big thank you to Clint Betts for revisiting this dark day in history with us. This episode may elicit some strong feelings. We would encourage that if you have a brother that has dogs that you have them with you while listening to this episode for protection.

You've heard Nate talk about his love for Orange Bang and it's where he gets it. Brandon easily gets a brain freeze but it doesn't stop him from having 2-3 Frazil's a week at this place. In this week's episode, we're talking about Holiday Oil. So grab the nearest bag of 2-day old popcorn and enjoy the ride!

We've finally arrived at the moment you have all been waiting for... We visited Lagoon! Thanks to our guest Matt for accompanying us on this journey.
Lagoon is a very special place as it is the largest amusement park in Utah. There is no way we will even scratch the surface of this place in one episode so stay tuned for many more in the future.
While we talk about a lot of things, we have many questions for you the listener. What is your favorite ride? What are your thoughts on the new ride? Were the mermaids on Tidal Wave always fully clothed? Would you recognize us if we dressed up as McGruff for Halloween this year?
As always, find us on our social media or send us an email. We love to hear from you.

Only in Utah can we slap turkey, cheese and sprouts between two deep fried pastries and call it healthy. Who’s been doing this consistently for 43 years? It could only be Sconecutter! And don’t forget, we’re going for 5 stars here people!

Happy 24th of July! There's nothing more fitting for a Pioneer Day than listening to an episode of This is a Place in which we talk about This is the Place.

A sincere thank you to the park and for getting us in touch with our guest Brian Westover who gave us a lot of great insights in to the park.

Did Brigham Young utter the words “This is the place?” What ever happened to the park’s haunted village? Can I safely visit the park during the pandemic at a discount? Listen in to find out! While you’re at it, be a pioneer yourself and share this podcast with 47 of your closest friends. It’s what Brigham would have wanted.

If you find yourself at 1904 W. & 5400 S. in Taylorsville, your dollar won't go quite as far as it once did. Close to four years ago the movie theater at this location closed it's doors forever so developers could fry bigger fishes... and chicken... and steaks. Many changes happened over the 36 years that the building stood. In 1980, it started as the first 6 plex Fast forward 20 years and you'll find the dollar theater that many remember. It may not be comparable to the behemoths around the corner these days, this isn't a theater we will soon forget.
