- Arts
A fantabulous conflation of history, culture, politics, famous people and booze, strained through the cognitive mesh of a best-selling author, polymath and inveterate reprobate.

263. 5th Anniversary Special with Phil Rosenthal
Raise your glasses high, folks—it's our 5th Anniversary Bash! To celebrate, we're uncorking a lineup of liquid legends with two hilariously high-spirited guests. Dan's chilling with Phil Rosenthal, the globe-trotting gourmand from 'Somebody Feed Phil,' and Emmy-winner Tom Caltabiano, a man who knows his way around a joke as well as a jigger. Join us as we sip, savor, and dissect a tantalizing array of top-shelf treasures, from the agave-kissed brilliance of Tequila Ocho to the cool Icelandic charms of Reyka Vodka, the botanical beat of Ford's Gin, the South American warmth of Santa Teresa Rum, the smooth sophistication of Michter's Sour Mash Whiskey, and the smoky secrets of Bunnahabhain Scotch. Here's to five years of spirited shenanigans!

3-Minute Bartender: Amaro Shakerato
In the time it takes to walk an old dog, Dan reveals all about the Amaro Shakerato. It's like your wild Italian cousin who studied mixology instead of law. It's a frothy fiesta of bittersweet flavors that demands a shake more vigorous than a salsa dance off. This cocktail's a dark, mysterious concoction that's both bitter and sweet, kind of like most of Dan's exes. Shaken, not stirred, because apparently, that’s how we deal with our feelings now. It's the perfect drink to sip while pondering where you went wrong with your barista. Cheers, or as the Italians say, "Aiuto!"

259. Reyka Vodka with Jeff Naples
In Iceland's icy grip, Reyka Vodka stands out like a Norse god at a cocktail party, distilled amidst volcanic fervor and the soft murmurs of elfin lore. This boutique spirit, clearer than a polar gale, is lovingly wrought from glacial waters, offering a taste so disarmingly smooth, it might just mediate a Viking truce. Joining Dan is Reyka's stalwart National Ambassador, Jeff Naples, to delve deep into this top-tier tipple. And don’t miss another fiery episode of "Driving Me to Drink," where Dan skewers the ever-growing sensationalism festering within the New York Times.
