Mobile Rundown News

Hey Friend,

We’ve got a good one for you today!

First, welcome to the 187 new readers that have joined the crew in the last 30 days 😄

Also, I need a quick bit of help from ya.

We just launched a new show segment (currently ‘creatively’ named the Chris & Brooks show — name needs work, we know).

We talked about brawls, new restaurants, and played a game (not bad for our first dry run!)

We’re going to rename it monthly (starting now, vote below).

We’ll use A.I. to give us some options, and then you need to help us vote from there!

A.I. gave us these names for the show -- which do you like best?

We're aiming to eat at 26 new restaurants.

A = Azteca's
B = Big Bad Breakfast
C = Catalina Restaurant
D = Debris
E = El Milagro y Taqueria y Pupuseria
F = Front Yard Tacos
G = Grace on Dauphin
H = Hammered Cow
I = Iron Hand Brewing
J = Jerusalem Cafe
K = Koma Bistro
L = Las Floriditas (check out our experience here).

We need your help!

Where should we go?!?

We're looking forward to eating our way through Mobile!
