Season 7, Episode 23: Perry's iconic Kumback Lunch celebrates 100 years
Description
Much of this show's time and energy this year has been dedicated to honoring the hundredth birthday of The Mother Road, Route 66. This time, we are tipping our cap to a different sort of centennial. The historic Kumback Lunch in Perry observed its triple-digit birthday in April. In its day, the classic diner has seen everything from a legendary visit by Pretty Boy Floyd to the capture of Timothy McVeigh and plenty of community ups and downs. Shae Boschee, who recently purchased Kumback with her husband Scott, joins the show to talk about what the historic milestone means to the Perry community.
Also on this week, the editors share some of their other favorite Oklahoma diners, and podvents welcomes the return of deadCenter Film Festival. You won't want to miss it!
