What We’re Drinking with Dan Dunn

A fantabulous conflation of history, culture, politics, famous people and booze, strained through the cognitive mesh of a best-selling author, polymath and inveterate reprobate.

126. Bar Stories: Part One May 11, 2021

A good bartender is a host, bouncer, shrink, parent, stand-up comic, and confidante. These people work hard, play harder, and have quite literally seen it all. And, boy, do bartenders tell great stories! On this episode, tippled tales abound, with help from legendary James Beard-winning bartender Dale DeGroff, LA bar star Kiowa Bryan, New York's finest Charles Hardwick and a mysterious Kiwi mixologist named Stephi Puffinfeet. Oh, and Dan spins a few yarns as well... including a doozy about Bill Murray.

For the first time in over a year, we recorded an episode on location — back out in the wild, so to speak, the way the Drinking Gods intended. Dan is joined by former "Booze Traveler" Jack Maxwell at Nueva in Venice Beach, where they drink delicious Altos and Avion tequila-based cocktails in celebration of Cinco de Mayo. Dan and Jack discuss their hardscrabble roots in Boston and Philly, and debate the merits of a good butt-kicking. Also on the show, barman extraordinaire Adam Fournier, who will represent the U.S. in the upcoming World Class bartending competition in Madrid, Spain, and tells us all about the ins and outs of a clarified Paloma. A BIG DEAL!
