Famous Nathan earned his Coney Island rep with hot dogs! INTERVIEW

Today's Guest: Filmmaker Lloyd Handwerker, director of the documentary Famous Nathan, about his grandfather Nathan Handwerker, founder of the Coney Island landmark, Nathan's.

LLOYD HANDWERKER podcast excerpt: "There was no semblance of a line at Nathan's. There were one area where you could only buy the hot dogs, one area where you could only get the drinks, and one area where you could only get the hamburgers -- unlike most fast food places, and what Nathan's does today. It might seem chaotic, but workers had a method of looking at the crowd and figuring out who they were going to serve next."
Key interview moments:

• 6:10 Making sense of the chaos that also made Nathan's of Coney Island famous (besides the hot dogs);

• 14:40 Why there is no biography of Nathan Handwerker;

• 27:25 How the founder of Nathan's integrated his food counter.
