Not all Dunkins are created equal. Right here in Greater-Danbury there are some that do a bang-up job and others who barely get anything right. So, when I saw a Connecticut Reddit post about how to spot a 'good' Dunkin, I had to learn more.

How to spot a “good” Dunkin’ donuts

Everyone knows there’s good Dunkin and bad Dunkin in CT. I’m gonna tell you guys how to look for a good one.

Checklist:

  1. Doesn’t have a drive through 2: Sign is faded/broken
  2. Music in the store is either Pop or Latin music
  3. Workers seem to know the customers
  4. Understaffed

These are what the 3 “good” dunkin’s near me have, and it’s how I know if i’m going into a good one when i’m away from home.

Hope you guys agree and comment what else you guys look for

Edit: Or just go to Speedys Donuts in Norwalk

The pop/latin music one is amazing and dealy accurate. You know if you go in and hear loud beats, you are in for a wild (not awesome) ride. There is a Dunkin in Danbury that is always out of what I want or "the machine is broken." That machine has been broken for over a decade.

Maybe call a repairman? We all know the truth, the machine is not broken, they just don't want to use it.

Mighty Connecticut Radio Station Gets More Powerful After 48 Years On-Air

I-95 has been on the air in Connecticut for 48 years, and while other radio stations wilt and fade, we keep improving. Today, I got to witness a side of the business I usually have nothing to do with: giant machines being installed that will make us all sound better.
