In today’s journey we take you to the Pacific Northwest, and speak to the Anthony Valadez the proprietor of “Little Jerry’s,” a Seinfeld-themed diner located in the Fern Hill neighborhood of Tacoma Washington. The restaurant is decorated with every piece of Seinfeld memorabilia you can imagine, and a television is bursting with non-stop Seinfeld episodes. Festivus does not come and go without being honored at Little Jerry’s. Since 2012, staff have dealt customers a full serving of Festivus along with their meals.

Hi Mark! Loved the first episode and think an entire podcast devoted to Festivus is both hilarious and a great way to bond with folks about Seinfeld 20 years after the show ended! I am a 6th grade science teacher in the Boston area, and will be celebrating Festivus with my class over the next 3 weeks prior to winter break, complete with Feats of Strength and Airing of Grievances! I would love to pick your brain about this wonderful “holiday” if possible. I have attached my email below.
Once again love the podcast and I look forward to future episodes.
Best,
Phil
Thanks for keeping us updated! I have big plans to air my grievances
For the love of Pete, the media has to cease the useless practice of labeling all news stories as BREAKING NEWS! What balderdash!!
