Back on September 19th 2019, when things were a little different, I had the opportunity to sit down with the amazing Silvia Philion, founder of Mezcaloteca. This beautiful and quaint Mezcaleria in Oaxaca Centro reminds me of a past life, a former glory, and many other emotions that are almost overwhelming. But in the midst of this feeling today, Sylvia’s story is an incredible one, and I hope you enjoy the return of the podcast with thoughts of sipping beautiful Mezcal together again. We chat advertising, scalability, and the universe.

Ep 295 – Adam Harris: Fireside Chat #2
The world of whiskey wages on even despite the world seemingly being at a halt. In this week’s chat, I sit down with one of the world’s favorite whiskey men, Adam Harris. As he sits and sips some Booker’s 25th Anniversary Bourbon in Houston, we ponder life, film, and what we can do to think about one’s self in these times. We chat QT, Brad Pitt, Squirrels, and more.

Ep 294 – Antonio Matta: Fireside Chat #1
The Covid19 world is new and different. So I’m taking the time out, in reverence to Social Distancing, to do some remote chats on Instagram Live. This is the first of many with my good friend Antonio Matta. He’s a great bartender, and manager with an astute interest in all things agave. We chat Metal, horror, and more.
