This brunch episode was recorded with James and Vince of Glory Days and Jacqui Litvan of Central Cafe in Highland Park (664 Central).

Glory Days has a new single out (“Cheers”), along with an accompanying video. You can also see them at Ravinia on June 23, as part of a line-up headlined by Dashboard Confessional and Counting Crows! We talked about the new single, the Ravinia show, and some Glory Days background.

Jacqui from Central Cafe shared some of Central Cafe’s delicious pastries (blueberry and chocolate scones, coffee cake, lemon bars) and very-necessary hot coffee.

Jacqui shared Central Cafe’s history, and talked about its relationship with the Highland Park community. We also talk about the extensive menu at Central Cafe (Lobster Roll Thursdays! Banana Coffee Smoothies!).
