OFFBITES: Disc Golf World Championships and disappearing theaters

About this episode

The episode discusses summer activities like disc golf and the decline of movie theaters in the U.S.

What are your favorite summer activities? Are you into water sports, hiking, barbecuing, checking out roller coasters, maybe playing some frisbee or disc golf? If you said yes to that last one – did you know that you could go pro? Professional disc golfers are heading to the World Disc Golf Championships later this summer, and we’ll hear all about it. Maybe outdoor activities aren’t your thing, and you prefer a nice, air-conditioned movie theater with some buttery popcorn and a big slushie. You may have noticed that your options for that experience are shrinking, as movie theaters close across the U.S. Featuring audio from WWJ Newsradio in Detroit and , the Dana & Parks Show out of KMBZ in Kansas City.
