Marie Callender's Restaurant & Bakery: DILF Depot

Do grocery store pies taste better in their restaurant of origin? Not by much!

• Marie Callender's Restaurant & Bakery feels like a slice of Michael & Garrett's childhoods, a wood-paneled wonderland that feels like a dentist's office waiting room
• Garrett details the history of the franchise in this week's Resty Fact Round-Up, including a history of "Pie Spies"
• Marie Callender's proves to be a haven of "old"
• The winner of the Septemburger Bracket $500 Giveaway is announced!
• Michael falls asleep in the booth...and Garrett is wondering What's Going On Over There?
• Table talk centers around Garrett's obsession with trashy reality dating shows, inspiring DILF Depot
• Michael's root beer gets bused, then...unbused?
• JUB's is getting in the biz of consulting; he'll teach you that all you need to be the greatest server is constant refills
