Episode 98: “Sobriety and Spectacle” feat. Chris Marshall from Sans Bar Flores & Friends Podcast

Hello again World!

I have the enormous privilege of welcoming my dear friend Chris Marshall, the owner and operator of “Sans Bar” which is a local sober bar in Austin, Texas. We chat about the origins of “Sans Bar”, its mission, the Sans Bar tour, the role alcohol plays in American culture, and the current Sobriety/Sober Curious movement.

We also have a non-spoilers and spoiler discussion on a film we both thoroughly enjoyed, Jordan Peele’s new film “Nope”.

Have feedback? You can contact us via twitter (@fafpodcast) OR the podcast’s email: fafpodcast@gmail.com. ALSO, if you really, really dig the show, please subscribe, and share.

Enjoy!
