, we look at Santa Monica’s $3 million revitalization project after a wave of restaurants, shops, and bars have closed 🌴🍸 Ideas like making the area more walkable and allowing drinks along the route could signal big changes ahead. We also cover the tragic story of Downtown Santa Monica Inc. executive Jeremy Ferguson and his wife, Mandy Zelinka, who were found dead in their Venice home in what police believe may be a murder-suicide 💔🚔  At 8:20, Petros Papadakis joins with a classic one-drink story 🍹 plus talk about bougie soft drinks like Olipop Watermelon Lime. Then we get into why Mike Vrabel is suddenly front-page news, the Dianna Russini “information broker” angle, and those bombshell NYC bar photos 👀🏈  At 8:35, Petros is mad at Foosh and fully unloads 🔥 Foosh is apparently into bearcats, the show notes say everyone is having “too much fun,” and Conway & Steckler don’t know what to do with that. We also revisit classic ad memories like Johnny Bench spray paint commercials and Earl Scheib, plus Petros gives some very specific BBW hunter advice 😳😂  At 8:50, more with Petros as we talk about the nightmare of finding games across different streaming platforms 📺🏈 Will the NFL go fully streaming? Why are the Lakers on Amazon? Why didn’t P care enough to push the extra button?
