Gobble Gobble Give – East Nashville, Let’s Give Back!

Jason Steen

It’s that time of year, East Nashville – when we all put aside our differences, pretend we don’t notice that neighbor’s horrible hipster haircut, roll up our flannel sleeves, and give back to the community! It’s Gobble, Gobble, Give! It’s the second year for ‘Gobble, Gobble, Give!’ here in Nashville – an offspring of the national group, which is celebrating their 17th year of giving back. Last year over 2,000 meals were served here in Nashville, let’s make it even more this year! Ready to help? (Even if you can’t…

Micheal Puckett – Handyman Felon – Neighborhood Watch

Jason Steen

Thanks to a tipline submission: Neighbors beware – an individual going by ‘Michael Puckett’ (real name Timothy Michael Puckett) is advertising on several East Nashville Facebook groups for ‘Handyman’ work and cleaning gutters – such as the advertisement below. He also has his own facebook group for his customers. Before you call him to come to your house, you should be aware of his past felony conviction of Especially Aggravated Robbery (he robbed and shot a homeowner here in Nashville), for which he spent time in the TN state prison,…

UPDATE: Tartufo Chef Brittany Dugger – was former homeless stripper!

Jason Steen

Thanks to a tip submitted to us – we have learned that Chef Brittany Dugger (from upcoming Italian fine-dining restaurant Tartufo) that assaulted a homeless man earlier in the week, was once homeless herself! It appears that Dugger spent some time as a homeless single mom on the streets and worked as a stripper to try to make ends meet. While it appears her story turned out a success and she got off the streets, and we commend her for that! However, we don’t understand how someone that has been…

Jason Steen

We’re working on a story about some $50 cheesecakes coming from what appears to be an unlicensed business in a possibly unregulated kitchen that may not be covered by the TN cottage laws, yet customers can’t seem to get enough, legal or not – perhaps you’ve seen posts in some various Easts Nashville groups – if you have any experience with this ‘bakery’ please Submit A Tip or email us: tips@eastnashville.news we’d love to hear your experiences, both good or bad, and if you’d continue to purchase from a bakery…

Tartufo Chef (& Former Stripper) Brittany Dugger: Recipe for Disaster – Assaults homeless man!

Jason Steen

*UPDATE from our tips@ hotline: Our very own local superhero chef who likes to assault homeless citizens, was once homeless herself – A tipster turned us on to the Chef’s former life as a homeless single mom who turned to stripping in Nashville to pay the bills, and used a gofundme page to get out of the streets, off the pole, and into the kitchen..We commend her on a great story, but fail to see how she could be so insensitive and aggressive towards homeless individuals when she’s been there before?…

Mitchell’s Deli – Penis Problems

Jason Steen

We noticed that another East Nashville site started this story, and where they left off, we want to pick up and elevate it to a new level… It seem’s Mitchell’s Deli has a problem with a ‘cocky’ employee by the name of Lawrence Hester. He started out by thinking with his own penis and drawing obscene photos on order pads and posting them in the employee area, just out of customer sight, see pic below.. But we’re petting if you look close enough in ANY of these pictures that one…

Reverse Q&A With Lawwren Croney

Jason Steen

We color outside the lines, dammit. We don’t to interviews, we do outerviews – which are pretty much you reading our viewpoints, sorry – CNN and FoxNews are on another site, and Burger King is just down the road if you want it your way. So we tracked down our favorite EN girl and and spent a day shopping with her at our favorite thrift shops.. in between some bargains and vintage dresses, questions were asked, answers were given. Here’s the recap – and if you don’t follow her, you should…
