    Ep 7: For The Love Of Flyboarding

    This episode of Bedtime Bar Stories is about love, loss and following your dreams wherever they may lead you. It starts, as so many adventures do, with a guy walking into a bar and locking eyes with a girl - in that most storied of towns, Vegas - but, with many twists and turns in between, it ends two and a half thousand miles away right here in Fort Lauderdale with them putting smiles on the faces of everyone from kids [facing critical illnesses] to tech billionaires.
    It’s the story behind one of Fort Lauderdale’s hottest attractions, the Hydro Flight Show, and its multi-talented creators Lena and Sean. Gina sat down with Lena & Sean at the fabulous Village Cafe North Beach Hotel in Fort Lauderdale: https://www.village-cafe.com

    EP5: Opening Night with Joe Bartnick

    EP5: Opening Night with Joe Bartnick

    It’s opening night at the Bedtime Bar Stories virtual bar and who better to open than comedian, best-selling author, hockey expert and master-storyteller, Joe Bartnick. 
    As you’d expect from a veteran of the stand up scene who’s shared the stage with Bill Burr, Lisa Lampanelli, Dave Chapelle and Robin Williams (to name just a few) Joe has a tale or two to tell. All X-rated of course and best served with Joe’s ‘not for the faint hearted’ take on a Manhattan.
