      The people in this video aren't that different to today; Huell was just both naturally charismatic, and an extremely skilled broadcaster. That rare combination of natural talent and skill will never fail to bring people out of their shells, even today.
      Anyone who's ever tried their hand as an on-camera host can immediately tell that Huell is an absolute master.

    This was one of my family's favorite shows when the kids were growing up. We all looked forward to each new episode, and had fun re-watching our favorites, and planning trips to see the places Huell visited. The kids are now grown and gone, but we still talk about and say "California's Gold" in our best Huell Howser voices 😊. He is missed.

    I think I know why he didn't, but I wish Huell would have asked the Pink family if they still eat their own hot dogs and if so, how often. Just curious is all. I never hear that question asked of restaurant owners when someone interviews them. I sure would.

    I lived one block away on Sycamore St. around 1973 and then later on around 1978 lived on Detroit St. 2 blocks away. Both times were literally parallel to their location even facing towards Pinks. However, I've never been a huge hot dog fan so I usually get the chili cheese Tamale which most people might not even realize they have. Because they also had Pinks Racing pictures on the wall I used to think they were related to each other but, recently found out that's not true. Pinks will definitely always have a soft spot in my heart.

    Sometime around the 2010s, Pinks had a policy that allowed customers to skip the line if the had physicians appointments or worked for air traffic control. Someone lied and cheated the system, a few thugs invited him on a boat under the guise that he was the 1000000th customer- they "took care" of the line cutter. The policy has since been abandoned.

    Here’s a hint. The snap is natural casein. ( intestines. ). Casper hot dogs have that. But Miller Frank’s, those are great all beef 🌭. Those are sol at sport arenas. If you like the big old fashioned Costco hotdogs, you’ll love Miller Franks! The best way to cook them is room temperature, deep fried in peanut oil or lard. Steamed, but make sure the waters simmering before you add the hot dogs. Low and slow. 3-4-21 🌭🍔🧉🥪❤️✌️
