E39: Trash Talk, Flow Control, And So Much More!

[00:00:00] Welcome to the Brunswick Group Therapy Podcast with Lucas and Kimberly.

[00:00:06] Ready?

[00:00:11] Yeah, what? Huh?

[00:00:13] Episode 39. We had a glimpse at spring earlier last week.

[00:00:18] I know. It was nice while it lasted.

[00:00:19] Back to snow.

[00:00:20] Now the bottom's dropped out again. But it's been relatively mild, don't you think?

[00:00:25] Yeah. It got so mild that City of Brunswick said that they're hiring for their parks departments, Oh my gosh. But I do believe we're gonna see a Mexican restaurant and I do believe it's gonna happen within two or three months because a liquor permit was requested by Jalisco LLC for that location. And I don't think anybody would request a liquor permit and if they didn't plan on reopening it. So it will be a Mexican restaurant, whether it will stay the name of El Taco Loco,

[00:01:41] I do not know, but I'm excited to see it come back.

[00:01:43] Well, the food better be just as good

[00:01:45] and they better have a cucumber margarita.

[00:01:47] Those are my two requirements. control. Do you know anything about flow control? No, not in this capacity. No. Jeez. Okay, well flow control. Yeah, it's still free to cut that one out. So, flow control is goals. Oh, oh yeah. All right. Enough trash talk. Brunswick discusses its goals. They had a meeting and talked about a lot of what went well in 2022 and 2023. They did make a lot of progress. They talked

[00:04:22] about the all-inclusive playground, it looks like Bruce Drive, Castle Court, talk about this next one to prom dress giveaway or woven with promise. I did this last year. I don't know if I told you guys that I think I did but I was there for the giveaway and it happens to fall the same day of the craft show over at the rec center this year so I won't be there but it's Saturday March 2nd and if you still have a dress you can still get it over to them but you

[00:07:00] do need an appointment if you do need a prom dress and want to go to the giveaway Saturday March 2nd

[00:08:02] and a lot of likes and stuff like that. So just wanted to throw that out there.

[00:08:04] Yeah, and we've seen a lot of movie theaters

[00:08:06] close around the area.

[00:08:08] We don't want to see ours close.

[00:08:10] Yeah, some of those big teams.

[00:08:11] Yeah, exactly.

[00:08:11] Exactly.

[00:08:12] So with the new owners in the plaza over there,

[00:08:14] they would love to settle in and get stuff,

[00:08:17] maybe do some upgrades or something like that.

[00:08:19] A lot of those potholes are gone too now, almost all of them.

[00:08:21] Right?

[00:08:22] Yeah, they did a good job.

[00:08:23] Yeah, and speaking of not on a street. I don't think it's gonna announce anything but oh, we might want to keep our eyes peeled to that location. Yeah, yeah. It's an indicator. And then the last one, you excited about this one? I am. So original Stake and Hoagie going in where Savory Sub was over at HackHawk in 303, be opening soon. So keep your eyes peeled on that and

[00:09:43] good stuff there. Yeah, I've been what we got going on here. We're back. Things to do in the 212, talking about food some more. Today, first Friday of Lent, right? So what do we do each year for Lent? We give you a comprehensive, as much as we can, list of fish fries.

[00:11:03] Not only in the 212, but local surrounding communities, so blood bank. All the blood they collect stays local to hospitals and stuff like that. They're doing this in honor of a little young man that they lost back in December of 2022 and there's a picture of him there. He's so cute, Mr. Eden. But again, it's Sunday, February 25th at 11am at St. Collette Catholic Church.

You get a group of friends together, and it's a good night out. I've been to one of those. It's been a while, but I've been to one. Have you been to one? Yeah, a couple of them. Good times.
