SONIC Drive-In: Full History and Honest Review

🍒 Sonic Drive-In: Full History and Honest Review 🛻

This week, SONIC Drive-In gets the full treatment: history and review, all in one. From the retrofuturistic drive-in vibes and "Two Guys" commercials to a dashboard covered in onion rings, we dive deep into everything SONIC does right, wrong, and in-between. Special guest Marc Pope (Geek Off the Street podcast) joins me for cherry limeades, corndogs, and a Septemburger showdown to see if SONIC can topple Dairy Queen.

🍟 Tater Tots & Onion Rings: Fried Side-by-Side Taste Test
🌭 Corn Dog has a Weird Wiener
🍒 Cherry Limeade & Ocean Water = Still the MVPs

📋 Passenger Seat Menu Visibility = Zero Stars
