    1. My family loves going to District Co and thinks their prices are reasonable! I rock my “Two Chicks and a Hammer” hoodie all the time and always get compliments on it! These ladies put Indianapolis on the map and turned these run-down neighborhoods back to life! Don’t be a hater!

  1. The city’s lack of support and indifference to what they were accomplishing to turn bad neighborhoods into preferable ones is unconscionable. As for the nation pro-imagery each week,…well, it WAS a multi-million $ ‘freebie’. These gals and anyone in the wake doing the same thing, instead of being thwarted at every turn should have been provided ‘green light’ preferable treatment. Maybe ‘TC&H’’ should retro charge the city for millions of dollars in free publicity.

    1. Fountain Squees revitalization predates Two Chicks lmao. Their terrible, and cheap, designs have actually hurt it’s context.

    2. Such a false narrative.

      They went around building codes and permits – they don’t get special treatment because they got a TV show

  2. The city should have worked with the two women to keep their
    show on the air. Their free publicity for the city of Indianapolis was immense.

    Their show featured Indianapolis in a very positive light.

    1. Except their product was terrible.

      They had so many red tag stop orders the city was likely tired of dealing with them.

      They don’t pay their contractors nor their staff and make sub-quality flips…. Why do we want them representing us?

    2. Not at all that’s reserved for The Future Highrises that will continue to come to the City.

  3. JJ Frankie,
    Have you lived in any of their houses or have done a personal inspection of any of the 140+ homes they have renovated or rebuilt? Or are you just reading fake news? Just curious… a pretty deep accusation if you haven’t!!

  4. Murray and Frankie, can you point to the spot on the doll where the TV show hurt you?
    2 Chicks is not my jam, but arguing with their success is moronic. Long running TV show, 100+ houses flipped. Storefront retain business, all in areas that needed revitalization. Are the flips done somewhat cheaply? Yes, like every single flip. They had an idea, made it work, and created wealth along the way.

  5. It’s easy to be critical when you are on the outside looking in. I know she made a lot of mistakes. But you always look back and say I could have done better. Or what the **** was I thinking. Sometimes you don’t always make the best decisions in the moment. And working with family was definitely one of those hindsight mistakes. It took a lot of guts to do what she did. I’m proud of her for taking responsibility for her actions and failures. Most people would blame it on someone or something else.
