Fly, Eagles, Fly… right into PHL. Delicious City is live at the Philadelphia International Airport, and we're joined by former chef to the Birds, Tim Lopez.

He tells us about the players habits and superstitions, why he didn't include a cheesesteak recipe in his book to rep Philly, and what the top tailgate cities in the country are. Plus: Alex Pearlman (@pearlmania500) has a lot to say about cheesesteak egg rolls, and we dive into our late summer faves with Whatcha Been Eatin'.
