Show Notes
While most of us aren't jumping at the chance to watch commercials, there's one holiday ad that Pittsburghers have loved for more than 40 years. When we hear the little flute melody leading into Eat'n Park's Christmas star commercial, we know those cozy feelings are coming — and it all started as the chain's special thank you note to our city. Executive producer Mallory Falk is with Kristy Graver, food editor at Pittsburgh Magazine, to learn about why Eat'n Park created Pittsburgh's most enduring commercial and talk about why it's still on screens today.
