Inside the Lunchbox podcast, host chef MaQ and Rex dig into one of America’s most iconic comfort foods: the hot dog. From ballparks to backyard grills, it’s a simple bite with endless regional personality—and in this episode, that’s exactly what we’re unpacking.



Listen in as we explore the idea of a “Dog” for every state, and what those local twists say about the places that created them. Are you loyal to a Chicago Dog, curious about a “Seattle ” dog, or all-in on a wilde game-style hot dog? Let’s kick things off with where this all-American classic comes from—and how each state puts its own stamp on it.
