Dahl Background

Tom Tom Boats

Childhood Dag licked his parents’ matchbook to prevent them from smoking cigarettes. Janet joined Steve for a viewing of his favorite classic game show. A bear wandered onto a golf course. The journey of the tamale is a great American food history tale.

About This Episode

Who knew that Park Ridge was such a mecca for Norwegians? Dag did. As we look back on family lineage, we also pause to reflect on the days when smoking cigarettes was encouraged. Speaking of reminiscing, Steve has a minute by minute recollection of a live appearance at ChicagoFest in 1981. The Elmhurst Museum pays tribute to the foods of Chicago. Is Brendan cutting the cord? And are there bears in Florida, and when did they learn to play golf?
