Cook Out History feat. Scott Philbrook (Astonishing Legends Podcast) [Part One]

Coming to you from Greensboro, North Carolina this week!

I'm cross-country again as this week I'm covering the beloved Southern burger chain Cook Out with host of the Astonishing Legends podcast, Scott Philbrook
Scott talks his history with Cook Out from back when he was in college, as most locations are open until 3 in the morning
Learn the history of Cook Out and their expansive menu that sells at a fraction of the cost of most fast food brands' offerings
A couple incidents at Cook Out got managers and employees fired for either refusing or giving poor service to the police
A Yelper complains of a "chemically" hot dog that's unfit for dogs
