Happy Tacovember, Taco The Towners!! We've got another amazing new tacotastic Taco Spot for you this week and this one's FANCY! Winner of The Pitch's Best New Restaurant of 2023...it's BARBACOA, a KC BBQ/Mexican Cuisine Mashup! And this week's special guest Taco Reviewers tell us what they think of this hot new KC Taco Spot: JASON NIVENS from the Jason Nivens' Kansas City Podcast and years on KC Rock Radio & back for her 3rd Time on the show SHELBI NEEL (Insurance Agent @bestinkansascity, Actress, Friend of Stray Cats, & Superfan of Barbacoa!) In this week's episode we delve into some deep rock concert/rock musician talk and even dip into KC's dark past (Annie Chambers Brothel Chat, anyone?) Nivens tells us where to get some tasty turkey tacos on Southwest Boulevard, Shelbi tells us about her unhealthy obsession with Jack White, KC Concert Etiquette and we discuss the best venues to see a show in the town of tacos! In the TACO TICKER we taco 'bout LOS CABOS in Independence going out of business & 8 Area Applebee's Restaurants surprisingly closing their doors! AND did the now bankrupt T.G.I. Friday's really start as a pick up joint with Potato Skins? Is this an end of an era?! ALL THIS AND: Barbacoa Chef Roman Raya swings by! MICRO CILANTRO! The Chesterfield Club! And Nivens remembers a Late Night Del Taco meal in St. Louis!! AND DON'T MISS US TAKING A TWIRL ON THE TACO WHEEL!!! TACO THE TOWN AT BARBACOA!!!
