Podcast 225: Wayne “Fig” Newton
Saturday, 09 July 2011

Today Liam and John bring you their second straight dudecast, although they had some female visitors to break up the testosterone-fest.  Sari from Las Vegas came into the Resource Centre and discussed some of Toronto’s local sanctuaries which include The Roosters Inn B&B in Port Perry (TVA discount card holders get 10% off), The Donkey Sanctuary in Guelph, and Snooters just north of Toronto.

John and Liam are still digesting the pizzas that they ate a couple of weeks ago from the Magic Oven’s all you can eat Wednesday night extravaganza.  The Magic Oven at Queen and Parliament offers all you can eat pizza and salad on Wednesday nights for about $15.  The hosts agree this is a great deal for some quality grub.   

Liam was in such a pizza-eating mode that he considered driving to Syracuse, NY to go to Strong Hearts Café.  If you take a look at the menu on their website you’ll understand why Liam seriously considered the 4.5 hour drive just to go this restaurant.

However, Liam’s desire for comfort food maybe satiated closer to home with the opening of The Hogtown Vegan.  This is the sister restaurant of Hot Beans and is located at 834 Bloor Street West.  Their menu includes such classics as mac ‘n cheese and po’ boys. Read a review  and see great pictures of their food from Luke, TVA's Food Fair Coordinator.

Liam almost began to sing Take Me Out To The Ballgame, but instead simply began to tell podcast listeners about Soy Happy.  Soy Happy is known for trying to get veggie options into Major League Baseball stadiums.    

On Saturdays there is the Brickworks Farmer’s Market where you can get fresh Ontario produce and some prepared vegan snacks.  Liam enjoyed eating raw salads prepared by Oakville’s very own Nzyme.

This episode is a strong-hearted 35 minutes.
