From the electric bathers of Coney Island to the King of England, no food has been as satisfying as a hot dog. You won't believe it as we weave a tale of dead whales, muckrakers, publicity stunts, and President Roosevelt. Who knew the hot dog was so interesting? With music by Big Momma Thorazine and featuring the voices of Mr. Eric from What If World, along with AJ Cornell.
