Natalie & Drew are joined by our friend Brett Pain from Street Fight Radio to talk about “flyover country,” that imaginary region of our nation in between the two very important coasts. In this double-sized episode, we talked about gross food, saying “thank you,” why it’s all right to live in the gloomiest place in the country, and why you have to say “sorry,” even if sometimes it means you apologize for saying “sorry” too much.
If you haven’t already, you can hear more from Brett at Street Fight Radio, the #1 anarcho-comedy station in the nation, located right here in Columbus, Ohio, and follow him on Twitter at @BrettPain.

I was born in the Chicago suburbs in 1971, and pizza here has always been square-cut. You don't have to request it to be cut that way, its just the way it's always been. My full-blooded Italian gramma would order it and give us the prized tiny corner pieces. I found a place once when I was grown that sold pizza by the slice, but the owners had just transplanted from New York.
I had to back up to verify, but Drew DID say Illinois at an hour & 10 minutes in!
Also I've lived in Columbus my entire life, and one of my former co-workers at an insurance company said it best: "It's a great place to live, but you wouldn't want to visit here."
