Kuma’s Corner: Unapologetically Metal

By January 22, 2020Show

Luke Tobias, the operating partner of the famous Kuma’s Corner in Indianapolis joins the show this week to talk about the now-legendary boutique burger bar. He’s went from a line cook there nearly 13 years ago to operating partner. And he’s seen it all. The place is unapologetic in its attitude – from the spiked-collar tattooed crew, the blaring death metal playlists, giant burgers named for their favorite metal bands, and their fair share of national controversy of their infamous Ghost Burger. And we can’t forget about their epic beer list. Luke is a beer geek himself and helps to manager a list of well over 100 beers at any given time.

Sitting in with us this week is none other than Mike Miczek, the drummer for a number of acclaimed metal bands. He’s currently playing and touring with Broken Hope, Canyon of the Skull, The Atlas Moth, and recently spent time with legendary metal outfit, Powermad – who was featured in David Lynch’s film Wild at Heart. In his “down time” he works with the award-winning coffee shop Dark Matter Coffee.

This is a fun one. Grab your favorite metal band/craft brew collaboration and turn it up to 11.
