In 2013, an Australian teenager posted this picture and a story online that his "Foot Long" sandwich from Subway wasn't actually 12" long.

So having a curiosity about such things (and the fact that we were hungry) we jumped into action!

We spoke with noted Tampa Bay attorney Joseph F, Pippen (himself a foot long customer) about a possible class-action lawsuit against Subway. On the way to the radio station for the broadcast, we stopped at a local Subway restaurant and purchased a sub to measure it for ourselves.


OUR VERDICT

The sandwich we purchased measured 11 1/4".

Subway agreed that the length of the sandwiches should be the same as advertised and settled with the 10 original plaintiffs. That prompted an appeal.

So where do we stand today in 2021?

We'll have to stop for a sandwich for a proper follow up.

Elizabeth counts down ten once-in-a-lifetime classic hotels across the U.S. and Canada that deserve a spot on any traveler’s bucket list. From historic grandeur to unmatched views, each offers something unique and unforgettable. She shares their standout features, history, and what makes each worth the trip.

Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm–7pm (Eastern) / 2pm–4pm (Pacific), we produce and distribute a dozen podcast segments each week.

Elizabeth explores an unusual scientific observation — some centenarians from the Chernobyl region may have been protected from radiation effects by a simple, common compound: apple pectin. Researchers suggest that pectin, naturally found in apples, may bind with certain radioactive isotopes and help the body expel them. She unpacks the origins of the claim, the folk remedies and local dietary habits that align with it, and the skepticism it has faced in the scientific community. While definitive proof is still lacking, it’s a fascinating look at how a traditional food could align with modern science in unexpected ways.

Elizabeth counts down the Top 10 most significant updates to Recommended Dietary Allowances and nutrition label requirements. From changes to daily values for key vitamins to stricter rules on added sugar and salt disclosures, the FDA’s revisions are reshaping what consumers see on packaging. She explores which changes actually help shoppers make healthier choices and which feel like clever marketing.

Elizabeth shares an eyebrow-raising “Server’s Revenge” story about a restaurant plagued by faulty refrigeration. After management ignored repeated warnings about spoiled food, frustrated employees risked retaliation for simply telling the truth. This story is less about the bad refrigerator and more about the integrity of service workers on the front lines of food safety.

Elizabeth calls out the bizarre logic of so-called “environmental warriors” in Amsterdam who staged a waterborne blockade to stop a Celebrity cruise ship from docking. Using kayaks and canoes, the protestors claimed they were protecting the environment — yet their actions targeted the very tourism that helps fund their city’s economy. The standoff delayed passengers, disrupted port operations, and sent a mixed message to local businesses that rely on cruise visitors. Elizabeth breaks down the scene, the protestors’ demands, and the irony of chasing away the revenue stream that supports jobs, restaurants, shops, and cultural sites in their own backyard.

There's a growing trend across the country — more states moving to ban soda, candy, and other junk foods from being purchased with SNAP benefits. While supporters say these changes promote healthier diets and save taxpayer money, critics claim the bans are punitive and ignore bigger problems in the food system. In her Food News this week, Elizabeth examines what qualifies as “junk,” meanwhile the corporate lobbying is quietly influencing the conversation.

Elizabeth digs into OBBB’s plan to finally rip out America’s creaking air-traffic control system and replace it with something worthy of the 21st century. For years, Washington slapped on Band-Aid fixes—patchwork software, piecemeal hardware swaps, endless change orders—burning through billions while delays, near misses, and ground stops actually got worse. She points to the recent DC helicopter/plane crash as a gut-check moment a modern, integrated ATC stack could have prevented: fused ADS-B, 4D trajectory tools, automated conflict detection, real-time surface movement radar, and controller decision support running on resilient comms. The technology exists. The risk is the same old Beltway grift—consultants, no-bid extensions, political meddling—compromising public safety. Upgrade everything, kill the graft, or keep gambling with flyers’ lives.
