Alright, confession time: everything I said at the beginning of the episode? Yeah, I made that up. It was all a joke. The real story? It’s an American tale - a mix of nostalgia, frustration, and a little bit of modern madness.
So, picture this: my childhood memories of the 4th of July are all about easy drives to City Island, spreading out a blanket, and watching fireworks. Fast forward to 2024, and it's pure chaos. Every street, park, and bridge is packed. The police have everything blocked off, and we spent nearly an hour just trying to find a spot to park and enjoy the fireworks.
Navigating the mess was a nightmare - dodging people, avoiding parked cars, and dealing with the ever-helpful police who told me to "just inch up." The highlight? We ended up in a Perkins parking lot, barely seeing the fireworks over the restaurant's roof. Not exactly the magical evening I had in mind.
But wait, there's more! While sitting in the Perkins lot, I couldn't help but notice how much the place has changed. Perkins, once a staple, is now trying to keep up with trendy breakfast spots like First Watch. They've rebranded, going for a modern look with white walls and farm-to-table vibes. And let's talk about their new "Decked Out Double Burger" - it's a monstrosity of beef patties, cheese, tater tots, and more. Who comes up with this stuff?
So, from a 4th of July fiasco to the strange world of modern Perkins, this clip has it all. It's a blend of absurdity, humor, and a dash of nostalgia. Grab your strawberry pie (if you're into that) and enjoy the ride.
