“Dear PoPville,

One of my friends is going to be on Jeopardy tomorrow and we wanted to have a watch party in DC at a bar! Do you know if there are any bars that show jeopardy? It feels very DC to already exist hahaha. I think apparently Midlands said they would host! Apparently they’ve hosted quite a few over the years.”

Which other bars regularly show Jeopardy? Which ones would be most fun to watch your friend, hopefully, crush it?!?

“Dear PoPville,

Someone dropped a copy of Larry Csonka’s memoir in our Little Free Library last week. For those not well versed in 1970s NFL he’s a very important football person who played for Miami.

We have a Dolphins fan in our extended family, so we grabbed it to take a look, and it turns out it was signed by the author! But we can’t quite tell who it’s addressed to.

Then we found a card tucked inside the pages with a picture of (what we now know to be) the Florida state capitol….weird, but ok. Opened the card, and it was a birthday note from 2023 to then-Senator Marco Rubio. And now clearly see the inscription in the book says “To Marco Rubio.” (more…)
