    A Kinda Nice Kinda Day Off with Patty Dennison & Ally Marrone

    What’s harder than building out and opening a new cocktail bar in Williamsburg Brooklyn? Building out and opening a new dance floor underneath the bar you just opened. That’s the task Patty Dennison & Ally Marrone set for themselves when they opened up Kinda Nice and Shenanigans earlier this year and in the next few months respectively. They sit down and talk about the buildout, what makes their partnership special and unique, and why they think the high/dive concept in bars has captured so many hearts and minds (and awards) over the last few years. PLUS, does it seem like those touchscreen soda machines are everywhere these days? Greg does a shallow deep dive into the history and mechanics of the coca-cola freestyle machine, including how they might be introducing dairy next, and how the answer to “are these things mining my data?” is exactly what you’d expect.

    Tropical Scotch with Stewart Walker

    The Scottish Highlands are many things, but “tropical” isn’t usually listed as one of them. However, Stewart Walker, distillery manager of Fettercairn Whisky talks about how they’ve found a way to get passionfruit, pineapple, and other notes more commonly associated with tiki cocktails into their Scotch. Stewart talks with Greg and Sother about Fettercairn’s long history in the highlands, their storied past as makers of blended scotch before they delved into single malts, the unique cooling ring technique that gives them their tropical house style and their advanced age statements, including a 40 year-old scotch whisky that your hosts are lucky enough to try. PLUS, French citizens consumed more beer than wine recently for the first time in recorded history. Greg and Sother break down what that means and if it has anything to do with the recent resurgence of pregaming in the United States.
