    Poolcasting at Tales of the Cocktail! - Day 4 with Shawn & Vay from Vandell

    Greg and Sother are back in the pool at Tales of the Cocktail 2026! On Day Four they’re joined by Shawn Lickliter and Vay Su, the owners of Vandell in Los Angeles which is up for best new cocktail bar at this year’s Spirited Awards. They discuss what makes Los Angeles different from New York City, their approach to inventing drinks (and when you cease tweaking a classic and start inventing something new) and what the incredible success of their bar has meant to them and their team. Then everyone gets a poolside spritz delivery, courtesy of Luxardo. PLUS Charlotte returns to talk about her career in the industry, going from bartender to brand rep to her current position at Tales, and what she’s looking forward to in the hospitality industry.

    Classics Rock! with Toby Maloney & Emma Janzen

    How do you follow up one of the most acclaimed modern classic cocktail books of all time? By writing a modern book about classic cocktails, naturally. Toby Maloney and Emma Janzen sit down to talk about their new book “The Classic Cocktail Sessions” which Toby almost considers a prequel to their first collaboration “The Bartender’s Manifesto.” They talk about their creative process (including who’s a stricter editor), how the hospitality industry has changed since their first book, and why underrated drinks like the Hurricane and the White Russian deserve more respect than they get. PLUS, Greg’s running a promotion! Post a pic of yourself with a fresh bottle from Workhorse Rye or Modern Ancient Spirits AND Violet Crown Spirits, tag him and the podcast, and he’ll send you a free bottle of Quiote Imports Agave Nectar.

    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.
