The Pittsburgh Poddy - Two Sisters Talking Crap In The ‘Burgh

If we sound absolutely insane in this episode, just know that Britt was given a slight concussion from a painting Maria put behind her so bare with us here. But it was Maria's birthweek so we're giving her a pass. We're talking the Festival of Nations, all the brawls that went down this past week between Steelers training camp and Tacos & Tequila, and the lure surrounding "The Demon House of Brownsville Road." If you've got $550k sitting around for a formerly haunted house and current bed & breakfast, you may be in luck!

Today's episode feels almost like one of The Morning Freak Show's Florida stories. We've got a pizza being punted after 11 pm and Barb the emu being killed in our first airing of Controversy Corner. Much less controversial is Joe Mangianello & Caitlin O'Connor's chihuahua's collab with Mediterra to create the Bubbles Hot Honey Latte. We can't tell you how excited we are to try that one!
Other hot topics include the explosion of Pittsburgh's group fitness scene, the Yinzer pronunciation of the word "eggs," and your lineup of things to do this week with our commentary on each, of course.

What a freakin' WEEK this past one was! @pittsburghpersonified said it best -- we can't eat the lettuce, go outside or go east of the city. Could the Canadian wildfire smoke really have been that much worse than smog from the steel mills? The millenial/Gen Z world may never know but we do know it certainly didn't stop Picklesburgh, the Zeli Horse Trading Days or the PVGP. This coming week we've got Goat Fest in the South Side, a convo about Laurel Highlands being the premiere spot for a day trip from the city and a whole lot more.

Has there ever been a more Yinzer episode title than this one? We hope so but doubt it. There's a little something for everyone in the burgh this week between the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix and Picklesburgh. Something that's not for everyone: the frickin cyclopsoriasis that's going around and ruining tummies. Wash your hands and produce, people!
After being absolutely slaughtered in our IG & TikTok comments, Britt is embarking on a BBQ adventure and had a greatttt first stop on her PGHBBQ tour.

Happy belated bday America :) What an absolute time to be alive. We had some great 4th of July festivities this week but our biggest ticket item was finishing this sentence: "I wish Pittsburgh had..." 
What we learned is that a LOT of people love basketball and not a lot of people love the incline. It is what it is.

Andddd we're back! We took a quick trip to the absolutely stunning streets of Cape May and ate. it. up. Go there if you haven't. Lots & lots went down back in the 'burgh this week between the Pens going under new ownership, Schwebels' bread going under no ownership, one of Britt's favorite people losing his job, the draft of the Ruck twins -- the list goes on & on! Listen in for alllll of this + where to watch fireworks and a few tips & tricks to having better Starlake concert experiences.

If there's one thing we love, it's summer. And what comes with summertime? Concerts. We've got your lineup of the big dogs coming to Pittsburgh in July! Just don't forget to get refundable tickets in case it storms & your fav artist pulls a Wallen. Summer also brings lots of salad cravings so we dug deeper into the history of the beloved PGH salad.
 
More importantly than anything else, Maria finally let Britt go off about one of her favorite topics: Richard Bazzy at Schults Ford. YEEHAW!

People who don't think summer is the best season are plain wrong. Ella Fellas, Langley ladies and people who bought tickets to see Morgan Wallen have every right to be upset. But people who don't like Pittsburgh salads... are nuts. This week we've got Bandaloos, more Gennings Dunker, a pig house and the lineup of everywhere you'll want to go this week.

If you've made it to episode 10, thanks for keeping with us because this is one of our wiliest chats yet. It's a sweet one too as we took a deep dive into the history of the Pittsburgh wedding cookie table AND the real difference between jimmies and sprinkles. Looking forward to Wallen weekend and more of the best weather ever but also looking back at the coolest little blue moon and the end of an era with Jam on Walnut.
If anyone knows the Romper Stomper, tell her we want to meet her.

"The Air Freshener" has made its inaugural debut! It was a wet weather week in the 'burgh for MDW but we've got good weather and great vibes on the horizon. It's farmers market season, baby! We're talking about all our favorites, especially when it comes to night markets in every part of town we could find. What couldn't we find nearly enough history about, you ask? Rialto Street (AKA one of the steepest streets we know) used to be a ravine... where pigs were forced to the top to go to slaughterhouses?! Gotta love some Pigsburgh history. 
 
Quote of the Week: "Maybe we'll go on vaca starting August 28th, then stay the 29th, 30th, 31st, 32nd, 33rd, 34th, and 35th?" Guess who HA
