Ep. 40: Kundan Baidwan's Oral History of Aub Zam Zam Bar

After Anthony Bourdain passed away in June, our friends at Bitch Talk Podcast decided that the best way to honor him was to follow in his footsteps—literally. The second of three planned "Bourdain Crawls" brought them (and Jeff) to Upper Haight's Zam Zam, where we met and were treated to some amazing oral history from bartender Kundan Baidwan. In this episode, which is shared by our podcast and Bitch Talk, Kundan walks us through some colorful stories surrounding this neighborhood drinking hole that still doesn't have any TVs. We recorded this episode at Zam Zam in July 2018. Film photography by Michelle Kilfeather
