Today we mix it up a bit and talk about some of our favorite real estate movies/shows & characters. From Phil Dumphy of Modern Family, to Jason Bateman's character in The Break-Up, realtors & real estate sometimes play a significant role in our favorite stories.

Madeline is a Compass agent in DE & PA and has helped the Philly Home Collective many times with clients looking for homes in DE and southern Chester County. She is also the author of soon-to-be-released, "How to Sell a House in 30 Days", and teaches a night class on the subject. In segment 3, Kristin subs for Dina and discusses some 'Delco Downloads', and Bill gives us his latest 'Burb-servation' after two months living in New Jersey.

Let's face it, a lot of people have moved into new homes over the last few years. The seller's market was a crazy place, and buyers were busting to live in a new space. It seems to be slowing down enough for us to start to reflect back on it and catch up with some homebuyers and their 'move' story. The first one just happens to be our very own Bill Ball's story on moving from South Philly to South Jersey. We dive deep into why he chose the 'burbs, why now, and did he lose his marbles during the process?... Also in Dina's Downloads, we talk about trying to beat the heat with one city's attempt to create 'invisible shade'. We sound better when you are buzzed up, so grab a cocktail and join us for Happy Hour!

Featured Drinks: Gripah Grapefruit IPA, Trail Hopper IPA, Casamigos tequila

Kristin is on vacation this week, so Bill & Dina settle in for a quick chat about future development plans in the city. Philly has some interesting developments on the horizon, and we are here for it! What housing is being built down in the Navy Yard? Are the Sixers moving from South Philly into Center City? Didn't they just build the Wells Fargo Center, like a few years ago...? How will these plans impact the city? We also talk about losing two major icons recently, and we are sad about it. RIP to Paulie Walnuts of Sopranos fame, and the Klondike Choco Taco.It's hot as hell out there, so mix your favorite beverage and join us for a cold one!

Featured drinks: Modelo (fancy gold flake bottle piece), High Noon (vodka, soda, pineapple)
