Wayne and Greg fire up the overrated/underrated machine and let the Bay Area have it — soccer, al fresco dining (Greg says nonsense, Wayne hedges), Angel Island and the immigrant experience, and Northern California's impossible summer weather (hot, cold, dusty, damp, all at once, somehow).
There's a London mission burrito sighting, a detour into educational PSAs, and a loving stare at the brutalist bones of the Oakland Coliseum, plus the East Bay's odd Rolling Stones legacy and Candlestick Park's questionable architectural due diligence. Napa's mystique takes a small hit, fancy coffee gets a reality check, and Wayne finally finds his favorite San Francisco movie (not Mrs. Doubtfire).
There's a confession about a weirdly specific young-professional commute ritual, a full-throated case for the Oakland Museum, a surprising defense of SFO, and a very sincere plug for Benicia. Also: the Dungeness vs. blue crab debate returns, and Dungeness wins. It always wins.
Oh — and Greg's mic is bad again. New mic, same problem. Sorry
