It's the 4th anniversary of this podcast, so I ventured to my favorite bar in the whole world - The Hotsy Totsy of Albany, CA - and talked to co-owner Michael Valladares about the ideal neighborhood bar, the East Bay music scene, and tacos. A perfect martini, and tacos. Check out this very East Bay playlist too (as a former East Bay kid, I approve!): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6LXzAfQ1JeU7IvzSC4WG03
