Hi there. Welcome to the Daily Dose for Wednesday, June 12th. We're talking about hot dog eating today. How about that? I never thought I'd be talking about that on a podcast, on writing, or Daily Dose, but here we go. Joey Chestnut, the star of Major League Eating, the star of hot dog contests, the star of these July 4th Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contests on Coney Island, is not going to participate. As we sit here today, not going to participate on July 4th in a couple weeks. Why?
