For this episode of the show, we decided to explore the ever changing dynamics of management systems. Much of what makes a business successful — and keeps it successful— is being in touch with the numbers, while still keeping in sync with your team. To help us better understand this aspect of the industry, we are joined by Jason Williams, creative director for Proof & Company, and director at Housemade Hospitality. Williams is a man who oversees a multitude of properties in different countries and even on different continents. Overseeing so many bars is only possible through the use of disciplined systems and communication, so this episode is particularly crucial to those hoping to become a better & more effective leader to their team.

With the hottest months of the year upon us, we thought what better time is there to get schooled on the fundamentals of boozy slushies. Entering this area of cocktails can stump even the most talented of bartenders, as the skill set that covers making individual cocktails doesn't always translate to drinks coming out of a slushy machine. So to better illuminate the topic, we are joined by Christy Colestock, the area director for the Mother’s Ruin bars. The Mother's Ruin bars have been featuring rotating slushies for nearly 10 years, so Christy knows what it takes to create slushies that sell! So listen in as she walks us through the basics of everything from how to what equipment you need to get started.

From looking on social media and the food press it would seem that guests are eager for high-quality ingredients prepared by well paid workers in a healthy work environment, but what does this really? Are people prepared to a bit more for these things? Why do we not mind paying $14 for a cocktail, but balk at a $12 dollar sandwich? And what if cheap food is coming at the expense of the people making it? To help us explore this topic, we are joined by star chef, Richie Nakano, who inspired us to delve into the subject.

In can often be difficult to stick up for yourself & your coworkers when you find yourself in a toxic and abusive work environment. But what do you do when the abuser is a renowned celebrity chef such as David Chang of Momufuku fame. In situations such as this, it can be extremely difficult, as the power dynamics can be so lopsided, both in power & resources. This is only magnified by things such as media access and the proliferation of non-disclosure agreements. To help shed some light on this pertinent topic, we are joined by Hannah Selinger -- acclaimed writer, certified sommelier through the Court of Master Sommeliers and graduate of the International Culinary Center -- who not only worked with Chang, but was brave enough to share her story by coming forward.

Tiffanie Barriere has made an impact on the cocktail industry that is nearly unmatched in the industry, and much of that is due to her work on the bar program at One Flew South, which is located in the Atlanta Airport.

It seems that whenever you want to hire, there are just never enough bartenders to choose from, as all of the best talent already seems to be working somewhere else. Much too often this leads to endless poaching of bartenders from bar to bar, which only makes it that much harder to build a sustainable program. But what if there was a way to train quality craft bartenders en masse, thereby making sure that you were never short on top tier recruits? Here to show us how to make this happen, is acclaimed bartender, and food & beverage entrepreneur, Julian Cox. So tune in and learn as he reveals all of his tips and secrets for training up the best new hires for your bar.

Many of us in the bar business only mingle with attorneys when we are having legal troubles or serving a lawyer at the bartop. Which means that much too often bartenders are opening bars and entering business arrangements without someone in their corner handling the legal issues surrounding the paperwork. To help us make some sense around this oft confusing topic, we are joined by Daniel Eun, a star bartender who also happens to be a practicing attorney. Not only has Eun bartended at some of the best bars in the world, such as PDT and the Varnish, but he also has a law degree from UC Berkeley, which puts him in a unique position to look out for the working bartender.

It is hard to find another category in the bar world that is both as mysterious, yet as historically rich as vermouth. While bourbon and rum trainings and seminars are a dime a dozen, finding one on vermouth can be a difficult task. Which is why this week we are joined by world-renowned expert on the subject, Roberta Mariani, who is the Global Ambassador of Martini. So tune in for this week’s episode as we discuss the topic of vermouth from top to bottom, uncovering everything from its history to production.
Flipping through old cocktail books for research and development can be very intimidating, especially when these books date back to the 1800s and earlier. Oftentimes the verbiage is ambiguous and the measurements are archaic. Because of how daunting this can be on this week's episode we discuss collecting vintage bar guides and cover how best to recreate classic recipes. To help aid in the conversation, we are joined by the illustrious San Francisco bartender, Marco Dionysos.
This week we are joined by Reid Mitenbuler, the author of Bourbon Empire: The Past and Future of America's Whiskey. So tune in as we trace back to bourbon's early days and its place in US history.

Working in the bar biz can be really taxing on you mind, body and spirit. In between the late nights of cocktails, shots and greasy food, it is easy to spend so much time taking care of others that we forget to take care of ourselves. Luckily, there are some good people in the industry who are trying to not only raise awareness regarding the importance of self-care, but they are also planning to do something about it. Which is why this week, we are joined by the founders of Focus on Health, Alex Jump and Lauren Paylor.

He just launched both his own cocktail book and his own vermouth, two things of which would keep any bartender busy. But while he was working on those projects, he was also collecting accolades and awards for both himself and the programs that he oversees. In fact, he excels in so many areas of the business that we just knew that we had to get him on to share his insight.

Partly, because they see this as not only an opportunity to get their drinks to thirsty guests, but also as a way to extend their bar's experience into that guest's home.
