Episode notes

In this chapter, the speakers delve into their personal feelings and experiences with hot dogs, exploring the strong opinions people have about them and how their relationship with hot dogs is intertwined with their own identity. They also praise the unique perspective on hot dogs provided by the book, which combines personal history and food writing.

The history of the hot dog is the history of America. The humble hot dog bun holds not just a tube of delicious-yet-dubious meats, but a long lineage of entrepreneurial effort, regional expressions, and immigrant stories. Comedian and author Jamie Loftus has written the literal book on hot dogs, and joins Adam to discuss the myths, merits, and hard truths about America's favorite food.
