Cleveland: Kool-Aid Pickles, Taylor Swift Donuts and no-tech Restaurant Games

This week, Nash takes the lead as we explore Cleveland's tastiest treasures — From over-the-top desserts like bubble waffles and shark donuts to fancy eats at Award-Winning Cordelia, and don't forget classic Italian cookies in Little Italy — this episode is packed with flavor.

We share our top picks for:

• Donuts (yes, there’s a debate)
• Ice cream spots with secret painted chameleons 🦎
• Fancy meals for foodies in training
• Kid-friendly table games to pass the time (no iPads needed!)
• A Truth or Trash game featuring Cleveland food myths 🍩
• Plus a would-you-rather involving pizza hats and donut clothes… obviously.

Cleveland might not have invented the donut, but it definitely knows how to decorate one.

🧁 Grown-up tip: Make your dinner reservations early!
 🍕 Kid tip: Be ready with weird games while you wait.
 💌 Listener shoutout: Hi Australia!
