Shemokin, remember the Duggan Donuts?
Dude, you turned me on to that.
Yeah, the, uh...
Oh, the iced coffee, cold coffee.
What do they call cold coffee?
Her name is Edna Faust.
And I remember we loved them so...
The joy we got from them.
You gave me that joy, dude.
And I've showed that over the years.
We've had people sitting here.
And I'm like, you gotta see this.
Because the thing that's amazing about Edna
was her deductive reasoning.
Was that she knew that, like, ice coffee, cold coffee?
Like, she's just...
Watching her go through the clues as to what to call it
is why I love her so much.
Yeah, drop it real quick.
Because I also want to tell you,
Dutch came to one of my shows one time.
You met Dutch?
I met him.
Dutch and Smith, what's his last name?
Dutch, what did he say?
Smith?
There you go.
A coffee shop in Shemokin is closed
following an arson over the weekend.
Definitely gonna miss it, no doubt about it.
A teenager is charged with starting a fire
inside the restaurant on Saturday night.
Shemokin police officer Ray Psycho
says no one was hurt,
but the place has extensive damage.
Psycho says the fire was started
inside the women's bathroom.
The toilet paper dispenser was lit on fire,
and within about a minute,
the entire place was filled up with smoke.
The mother did explain that
she's recently been put on new medication.
But as far as for what reason,
we're unsure right now.
The 13-year-old who admitted to setting the fire
is currently at a juvenile detention center.
Many people who live in Shemokin
are upset that Dunkin' Donuts is closed.
Now I have to rely on myself
to go to maybe a Turkey Hill or something
where I don't like their donuts.
I'd rather the donuts at Dunkin' Donuts.
And I'm kind of dealing with it,
but I really miss Dunkin' Donuts.
I go there every day.
I get a chicken baker croissant,
or I get some coffee,
Powerade if I'm dehydrated.
I sit there all the time.
If I have any legal work that I need to do,
I go there.
Of course.
I meet with my attorneys there.
I'm going to miss that place
if it don't open up.
And a lot of my friends go in there,
get the cold coffee,
iced coffee, I guess it's called.
Oh, there she goes.
She figures it out.
She knows.
Edna Faust's Unsolved Mysteries.
She gets to it.
And Dutch Smith doing his legal work.
I mean, there really is.
And by the way,
I hate to bum the podcast vibe out,
but the first woman at Turkey Hill Donuts,
she passed away.
Nuh-uh.
I'm almost positive we did a deep dive on her.
And I do think that unfortunately
she is no longer with us.
God, she seemed like the most healthy
of the three of them, I thought.
She did, too.
She was definitely the one I was,
if I had to be attracted to one of the three,
it would have been,
Faust was a close second.
Yeah, yeah.
Dude, you could play Faust
in like a biopic one day.
I would love to.
Brian Dennehy right now has her,
but I think.
Oh, but Dutch Smith came out to a show, dude.
He's doing great now.
So, but that was amazing, bro.
But yeah, you put me onto this
and I've like shared it
with so many people over the years.
So thank you, dude.
That was such a bizarre,
I remember it was on with myself
and it was on Opie and Jim.
And I think that was the show.
And yeah, we would play
all these weird clips
and once in a while you find one
and it's like, fuck, that's a gem.
Yeah.
That's a gem.
But I never heard,
I never had any follow-up
about Edna Faust.
I'm dying to know how she is.
Because I think she's the best.
Yeah, let's put it,
we'll put it out on all call.
Hopefully somebody can send something in, man,
and we'll see if we can get
a little follow-up.
The Faust over there,
outside of Turkey Hill
and Dunkin' Donuts
and Shemokin.
They've rebuilt it, by the way.
Oh, they have?
I have.
We did follow-up.
They have rebuilt the Dunkin' Donuts
and it's a big thing in Shemokin.
I was going to stop in there
going to a gig one time,
but I'm like, no, I can't.
I just, I cared while I was on the air
and then as soon as I was in the car,
I was like, fuck Shemokin.
I'm not stopping.
It is funny how you make little plans
like, oh, I gotta be,
and then things come along
and you're like, nah,
let's just keep hitting those,
stay on the road.
Stay on the road.
It was fun in theory.
It was fun to think about
and to talk about,
but now that I'm actually
going to be 25 minutes
out of my way that way
and then 25 minutes
out of my way that way,
I'm not doing it.
Yeah.
Yeah, fuck them.
Yeah, fuck them, dude.
I, ah.
I, ah, I, ah, I'm not doing it.
