By By Chase Straight & Trevor Hale April 23, 2009

Chase and Trevor review three new albums for your listening pleasure.

Animated Living

Pete Docter is older than he looks. At 40, he still retains the physical characteristics and boyish charm of someone half his age.

Summer eats on the streets of Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City never fails to amaze with different and interesting experiences. One great way to try something new is to visit a hot dog or taco cart for cheap, quick, tasty food.
