    Many fond memories of a great place where I lived in the 1970's while attending Palmer College of Chiropractic :)

    Loved the Davenport, Iowa episode. There's tons to do their and it's located right by the mighty Mississippi. The segment about the kaleidoscopes was pretty cool. I had one growing up. You got to master making Ethiopian food. I couldn't do that. You and Emmy make a great team. Really glad to have an awesome show to watch on Thursday nights. Keep up the good work.

      BIX 7 the largest annual event in Davenport. Should of done the whole QC so they could include Deere & Co and many others. Good information on the dam and bridge. I've even been in the control tower when opening and closing and didn't realize or remember how rare it was. They also didn't mention that when driving on the entire bridge is like driving on a metal grate not concrete like 99.9% of bridges

      Davenport is so racist they changed the BIX Rules that excluded blacks from taking first place prizes

    The Quad Cities as a whole rules. We hosted the very first professional football game, home of the infamous John Looney, birth of modern agriculture, home of the very first national Bank in the US, and we literally invented sliced bread. 😎

      The history of Davenport and the Quad-Cities is actually quite astounding.

    Davenport is terrible. I was born and raised here and we have what. Bowling. The Bix. A great theater crowd, constant construction, high crime rates, and...churches everywhere.

      Davenport is more geared for the lower income. You have one decent area and that on the far east near McClellan heights or out near 60th and eastern Ave. The rest of the city has subpar neighborhoods. The money is over in Bettendorf and Pleasant valley.

      I live in downtown Davenport and I agree. The crime rate is ridiculous but you have to put into account that certain areas of Chicago were shut down so those people living in shit areas had no other option but to eventually migrate here.
