Our two aging Boomers Mark at the Mic and Bob on Board welcome Pizza Czar Ron Santero to the show.  Ron pretends he is bashful behind the mic but ultimately has plenty to say.  A fun listen...maybe. 

August is Archive month for my podcast "Burlingame, it's a Small Town," so I'm bringing back one of my top 5 most listened to episodes; my conversation with Paulette Munroe cofounder of the ever popular "Morning Glory" clothing boutique, standing 54 years strong on Burlingame Ave. Paulette and Mark at the Mic discuss how two Burlingame High School students Paulette and her sister Maureen "Mo" Munroe started their clothing business in 1972 and how it became a SF, Peninsula icon. Full disclosure: it was a favorite of mine to buy hippie, trendy clothing for my wife Kathy in the 70's.

In this episode Mark at the Mic sits down with John Root,TT long time Burlingame resident and former General Manager of two of the Bay Area's most iconic arenas and event centers, the Cow Palace located in Daly City and the San Mateo Event Center located in Sam Mateo. John tell us about the origins of the Cow Palace, the Grand National Rodeo, various Bill Graham concerts, Roller Derby, the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey circus, Disney On Ice, Big Time Wrestling and other sporting events. Make sure you catch his tale of Evil Knieval. John also gives us a look at the 91year old San Mateo County Fair, the Fiesta Fairgrounds and much more. An entertaining and informative conversation with one of Burlingame's most well known and respected citizens.
