Duluth News Tribune outdoors writer and columnist Sam Cook shares his words of wisdom, outdoor expertise and the story behind yellow dog on this week's Pressroom Podcast.
Cook recently hiked the entire Duluth portion of the Superior Hiking Trail, 32.5 miles, in one day with two other guys. He tells us his favorite parts of the trail, what he ate throughout the hike and whether or not he will do it again.
"It was everything I wanted it to be," Cook said about the daylong hike. "It's just walking but it ain't walking on the Lakewalk."
What we are into this week: Learning from our children, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and exploring the Northland trails. Can you guess who said what?

Over a month ago, we declared our love for our favorite pizza pies in the Twin Ports. Now with grilling season in full swing, our mouths are watering over juicy, greasy, delicious burgers.
"I just had a BBQ bacon cheddar burger and it's just really good," said Christa about the new burgers being offered at Toasty's in downtown Duluth. "I don't even feel bad about eating it. I could eat one every day and I'd never get the burger guilts."
Putting all of their burger "guilts" aside Christa, Brady and Tom highlight their favorite go-to burgers around town, what toppings are acceptable and whether or not "craft" burgers, such as ones made with wild rice patties or served bunless, should be classified as actual burgers.
