Ep. 130: Our First Ever Hoagie Throwdown Was Insane
Eli, Marisa and Dave were so pumped after the first ever Hoagie Throwdown that they couldn’t wait for the next studio recording and jumped on a call to recap the madness. From hot pink hoagies to bread beatdowns (literally) it was a wild day. While this episode's sound quality might not be, that's because we weren't able to get into the studio fast enough and we wanted to get this recorded and published ASAP. If you were there, I'm sure you'll love reminiscing with us, and if you weren't, well, there's always next year! The gang reveals the winners of the People’s Choice Hoagie, the Iron Chef Sandwich Competition, and the main event match, which had an insane twist ending! Follow @deliciouscitypodcast for lots of clips being posted this week, and thank you to every hoagie maker, Philly foodie and wrestling fan who came to Other Half Brewing last Sunday. We’ll do it again next year for sure. And speaking of events, keep an eye out for the 2026 Tasties, coming soon… Couldn't do this without all of our great sponsors In the mood for fresh, fast and healthy?
