Firehouse Subs: Steamed Meats, Pickle Buckets, & Titanic Talk

🚒 Firehouse Subs 🥒

This week, we head into Firehouse Subs to see what the fuss is about. Emmy Award-winning guest and cohost of On Brand with Jon & Marisa Jon Glover joins me to talk steaming meats, charity pickle buckets, Titanic lore, and why being put on hold too long might just drive you insane. Along the way, Jon invents his dream restaurant "Capades" (an ice-themed wonderland), brushes shoulders with James Cameron (not to brag), and gets hot and bothered for firemen.
