Friendly's feat. JUB

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

○ Jonas Brother specialty ice creams!

○ Eat Deets will teach you that Friendly's is one of the older restaurant chains in American history, with two brothers who founded an ice cream shop with nothing but a dream and $547

○ Step back in time to this place that feels old, classic, and filled with Depression-era clientele

○ Octogenarians plus technology is a dangerous combination, and we like to avoid it when possible, even it if it makes us ask What's Going On Over There?

○ An unforgivable mistake by the back-of-house workers

○ Fribbles are thicc and delicious

○ A separate menu just for ice cream is WAY TOO MUCH

○ JUB knows a lot about magicians
