Episode 202: Ultimate Minnesota State Fair Report

The Spirit Of 77

This week, there’s good news and bad news. The bad news is that all of Producer Tyler’s audio clips on his soundbar app have been erased in an update. The good news is that the app has replaced the saved SOSS sounds with some nuts clips. It’s State Fair season and Amy has a great Minnesota Get Together report. She covers it all…parking, new fair foods, old fair foods, attractions, and musical acts. If you didn’t know the MN fair is the largest state fair in the country. Texas says they are the biggest but that fair runs longer, so Her journey starts with a soggy turkey sandwich and The Miracle of Birth Center. She swings by Sweet Marthas for cookies and the all-you-can-drink milk stand. Who needs unlimited milk? P.S. Sweet Martha makes almost 5 million dollars in 10 days every year by hawking cookies. Amy gets to try this year’s hot new food item, Amish donuts…for free. She perused grandstand wares and various vehicles for sale. Next up on the non-stop food parade are Nordic waffles and Nashville chicken on a stick. So. Many. Foods. She caught lots of free music including sneaking a peak at Matchbox 20’s soundcheck. Pro tip: the MN State Fair haunted house is the scariest haunted house ever. Finally, off-topic, Amy reviews the movie It Ends With Us. Oh, the controversy. Maya reviews The Watchers. Finally, Amy wants everyone to start drinking wine coolers again.
