Episode 169: TACO TANK! ON LOCATION at the IRON DISTRICT! (w/ Dana Collins & Shelbi Neel)

This week we keep this Summer Taco-cation a' rollin' by returning to the Iron District in North Kansas City to taste test the tasty tacos (and nachos and churros) at TACO TANK with our special guests DANA COLLINS (Chips n' Salsa addict) and SHELBI NEEL (loves tacos and selling insurance but usually not at the same time!) Dana tells us what her favorite chips n' salsa in the city is and tells us about living in Austin, Texas for 7 years where there was a taco truck on every corner! We get to the bottom of where the Northland and North Kansas City merge and is North KC the Brooklyn of KC? We get into a little Ward Parkway Mall chat and also run down a list of our favorite North KC Hot Spots!! (Neon Wild anyone?!) Also Shelbi answers some Taco Insurance queries! (Would she give life insurance to someone dressed like a taco?) In the TACO TICKER we taco 'bout Taco Bell's big announcement that it will be testing 2 new items: the Big Cheeze-It Tostada and the Big Cheeze-It Crunch wrap Supreme! (But people just want the Big Cheeze-It.) Also be talk a little Joey Chestnut and the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest and the disturbing story about 15,000 Gallons of Hot Dog Filler spilling on a Pennsylvania Highway! Our Highways are not safe!! In TOWN OF THE TACO we ask 'Whats your favorite appetizer in KC?' and 'KC needs a (blank)!' All this and Maddie from Taco Tank brings by some churros and Dave talks about washing his hair with cilantro! In this case the soap WAS cilantro!!! And in RANDOM TACO QUESTION OF THE WEEK we ask: Would you stay at a Taco Bell Air B&B? TACO THE TOWN AND TACO TANK!!! ONE DAY WE WILL MAKE THE DREAM OF OF A TACO CANNON COME TRUE!!!
