Season 2 Episode 4

​

Texas Roadhouse feat. Michael Moore

​

In this episode of Fine Dining: The Search for the Most Mediocre Restaurant in America:

​

â—‹ Part 1: Michael is joined by friend and powerhouse of a man, Michael Moore (no relation to the filmmaker/documentarian of the same name) to dine at Texas Roadhouse

â—‹ The restaurant started as a spot in a mall in Indiana, so it was neither a roadhouse nor Texan, but that didn't stop owner W. Kent Taylor from building an empire after giving up on opening a Colorado-themed restaurant

â—‹ Learn all about the history of the chain dubbed the "Loudest Restaurant in America" in this week's Eat Deets

○ Harrison Augustine 💸 Arrylius XIV has had it with the mistreatment of corporations: they're people too, dammit!

â—‹ Hear Michael & Michael's first impressions of the place, from the wall of veterans to the lack of peanuts on the floor

â—‹ Michael Moore compiles a few very catfish-centric Yelp reviews about this Texas Roadhouse in the middle of nowhere, almost halfway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas

â—‹ New Part 1 Outro Song!!

â—‹ Part 2: We're back with friend and magician Michael Moore to talk about the atmosphere, service, and food at Texas Roadhouse

â—‹ Willie's Corner, the suspicious absence of floor peanuts, hoedowns, and taxidermy galore

â—‹ Some concerning verbiage from the service team has the Michaels speculating the presence of an otherworldly, Lovecraftian being skulking about the area in this week's What's Going On Over There?

â—‹ A three-part audiodrama addressing said monster

â—‹ Maxwell gives his thoughts on the Texas Roadhouse Kids Menu in the return of Munchkin Menu Musings!

â—‹ Are the rolls at Texas Roadhouse the new best restaurant table bread?

â—‹ Petunia leaves JUB a voicemail
