Gilgal Sculpture Garden Jul 01, 2020

Did you know that there is a 75-year-old sculpture garden in Utah? Neither did we. You'll also be interested to find out that it is the only designated visionary art environment in the state of Utah. Look at us getting all cultured.
Gilgal is an eccentric spot in where you can take a stroll, snap some cool Instagram pics, and enjoy some quiet. You're going to find a sphynx with the face of Joseph Smith, symbolic stones, and maybe even a transient or two, but we suggest going to this garden is something you should do.

For this episode, Brandon and Nate had the opportunity to speak with Arthur Owens who is the owner of the pop-up restaurant Row Ohh's Chicken and Waffles. By checking this place out you'll be supporting a growing local business, interaction with a talented and genuine individual, and some 90's nostalgia. Oh, and the food is AMAZING.
Make sure you listen to the full episode as you'll get to hear the debut of the officially unoffical Row Ohh's Chicken and Waffles jingle at the end!

USANA Amphitheatre Jun 17, 2020

Show notes

There's nothing like a warm summer night under the stars while listening to one of your favorite bands live. USANA Amphitheater is a great place to have such an experience. Every year (this year being the exception) you'll find a long list of concerts to enjoy from country to rap. Grab a premium reserved seat closer to the stage or chill back on the grass. However you do it, you'll find a great atmosphere, stellar music and a picturesque view of the Wasatch Front.
If halfway through the episode you wonder "this seems a little long for an episode on USANA" then you are probably right. But what would an episode be without arguments over bands that we like, well timed dad jokes or some shade thrown at Barry Manilow? Well, it wouldn't be an episode of This is a Place. So throw that podcast app on 2x speed and enjoy!

As these hot summer days begin, putting on your swim trunks and sliding down a large waterslide would be perfect! Unfortunately, you're going to have to look elsewhere as this former water park is nothing but weeds and graffiti.
That doesn't mean we can't talk about the good old days though, right? Join as us we revisit Raging Waters (also known as Seven Peaks and Wild Wave). Did Bill and Ted frequent this water park? When is opening back up? Did Nate really ride the first-ever H20 rollercoaster? Do we live in Glendale? You may have some of these questions answered upon listening to this episode.

49th Street Galleria & The Fun Dome Apr 29, 2020

Show notes

What do pirate mini golf, pet hospitals and a late 90's pop song have in common? All of it happened at this special place.
49th Street Galleria or The Fun Dome was a unique place that found it's way in to the hearts of Utahan's starting in 1983. While the building has undergone changes, renovations and failed business opportunities over the years, many will never forget the fond memories once forged at this location.
Also joining us on this episode is a longtime friend and fan of the podcast, Matt.
