Talk Straight

While you can expect a little chiding about the taste test gone r-o-n-g and being left unattended, this week we drink the delicious Daiquiri and Jana tells us some of the murky history of this venerable beverage, all while we muse about pirate jokes, hopeless students, summertime pregnancy, watching Tinder dates, and the fact that drunk girls and lady bartenders are always your best friends. Alicia shares a story from a long-ago summer session at college and Jana tells us about bartending another person's blind date. Plus, we answer (or do we?) a listener question about overrated alcohol and share a listener story about some velour booze smuggling, too.  A genuinely worthwhile thing Jana and Alicia discuss: "Angel Shots." Talk to your local's bartenders about this so they'll be ready if anyone orders one.  Want Talk Straight stickers?
