312. Author David Wondrich

Renowned cocktail historian David Wondrich joins the show to talk about his brand-new book, The Comic Book History of the Cocktail: Five Centuries of Mixing Drinks and Carrying On. We dig into the myths that refuse to die, the bartending legends, past and present, who shaped the craft, and the painstaking research process that’s made Wondrich the industry’s most trusted voice. Along the way, he reflects on his long, colorful career chronicling the evolution of booze culture, and why the history of the cocktail is really the history of us.
