It’s Thanksgiving weekend in Oklahoma City – that weird annual mash-up of gratitude, guilt, family togetherness, and the creeping suspicion you should probably go do something before a glutton’s dose of tryptophan, Tofurky, or Northern Lights locks you to the couch.

When it comes to my favorite meals—the foods that I truly admire and, sadly, covet—there are three distinct styles that I hold in high culinary esteem. Of course, my own foodborne heritage of Mexican and Indigenous eats take the two top spots, but the one genre that most people don’t reckon on is the deep…

Say what you want about Ryan Walters, the guy sure was ambitious. Granted, it was an Emperor Palpatine type of way, but ambitious nonetheless. That’s something you should probably not say about his appointed replacement – Superintendent Lindel Fields. The proof is right there in the school pudding: Yep, that’s right. The quality and standards…

It’s one of those Oklahoma City weekends where the city can’t decide if it wants to be festive, artsy, or aggressively nostalgic – so it’s doing all three. From Scissortail’s big holiday glow-up and OKCMOA’s buzzy Paul Reed opening to felt-based emotional support in the Stockyards, here’s what’s worth getting off your couch for this…

Some years ago, I became a big Taco Casa fan—even though the fast-food eatery was around 250 miles away and only served to me once, maybe twice, a year. You see, of all the fast-food taco huts, enchilada spots, and burrito outlets in the lower part of the country, Fort Worth’s Taco Casa has primarily…

Oops. In our rush to roast the glaring omissions from the OKC Monopoly board, we apparently overlooked the biggest one of all! Thanks to a hot tip from the Ogle Mole Network, we’ve learned the much-hyped and ballyhooed OKC Monopoly board features a photo of the downtown Tulsa skyline. Yes, Tulsa. Right there in the…

Earlier this week, city leaders, the local media and other members of the invited establishment celebrated the official release of the Oklahoma City edition of Monopoly.

You know, one of these special editions that replaces all the Atlantic City streets, roads and landmarks and replaces them with, in this case, Oklahoma City destinations.

Last week, we let you know that the Statewide Official Compensation Commission doled out some big pay raises to state office holders like the State School Superintendent, while keeping most rank-and-file lawmakers’ salaries deservedly flat.

If you read that article, we thank you, but we’d also ask that you forget everything about it.
