What a great show! I share it with friends often. Stoneham is MetroNORTH! Numerous businesses in the general area call themselves Metronorth. :)
What a complete hater. From the city of trash to a legit, historical, proud, gritty city.
It’s no wonder the world despises Philly.

Fun, down-to-earth, and informative. I'm a NYer who's only been to Boston and Philly one time each, but I'm getting such a kick out of this podcast. Especially love the turkey episode. I wish every city had a podcast like this. It's perfect.
Born and raised in Boston (technically Waltham… but we all claim the city), and I absolutely love hearing an “outsiders” perspective. That it comes from Philly is even more interesting, since we both share a baked in sense of gritty, tough, sometimes obnoxious character.
Sometimes a bit of a hater ( I’d be the same if I was doing an “explain Philly to me podcast), but seems to be finding her place in our amazing city.
Keep up the great work with great guests - do one on Townie culture!
