Episode 07: Hella Touristy

In Episode 7 of Hella Foggy, Greg and Wayne drift into the soft, slightly embarrassing pleasures of San Francisco tourism, both real and imagined. Along the way they encounter a mysterious time traveler named Biff, remember the late Doug McConnell, and try to make sense of the City’s wild parrots. There is bread bowl talk. There is the story of the day San Franciscans nearly broke the Golden Gate Bridge. There is Wayne’s disappointing brush with stage magic, and Greg’s reluctant admission that he loves a good tourist trap.

As usual, the episode wanders the way memory wanders, looping through local legends, half-remembered facts, and personal embarrassments, in search of whatever truth hides inside the kitsch.
