1,000 years in the future, if current trends continue, scientists estimate global sea levels

will have risen nearly 7 meters, a cataclysmic event that, according to astrophysicists

Stephen Hawking, would mean the doom of humanity, absent the colonization of space.

And these pessimistic extrapolations for Earth in 2016 may prove true based on the events

of 2016, when Americans elected as president, a man who believes global warming to be a hoax

perpetrated by the Chinese.

The endlessly despairing news of 2016 came on like the overwhelming floods of future

millennia, a rash of global terror attacks, an endemic of domestic hate crimes, and Olympic

games in Brazil overshadowed by the Zika virus in a heavily politicized impeachment,

a gutter brawl of a US presidential election between the two least popular candidates in

history, and perhaps most troubling, the death of beloved gorilla Harambe at the hands

of a Cincinnati Zoo sniper.

And this podcast made some history of its own, the contentious tournament of champions

which crowned in and out as the world's best burger, the disastrous, Olympic Susser games,

Rock Lobster Fest or Month Long Tour of Red Lobster, we saw 15 new episodes and four new

entrance to the prestigious Platinum Plate Club, as we wrap up a momentous year in world

events, and perhaps a more momentous year in Doe Boys, we bring back an old friend to

revisit an old favorite.

This week on Doe Boys, we return once again to Stake and Shake.

Welcome to Doe Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants, we're a part of Farolodio.com.

I'm Nick Weiger alongside my co-host, Santa's Drown Corpse, Mike Mitchell the Spoon Man.
