The ABCs of Drinking EP|355
from What We're Drinking with Dan Dunn · host Dan Dunn
Dan is going back to school. Sort of. Inspired by his childhood love of Sesame Street, he works his way through The ABCs of Drinking, assigning each letter of the alphabet a word from the wonderful world of adult beverages. From Alcohol, Booze, and Cocktail to Glencairns, Hair of the Dog, Quaffing, and Zima, Dan blends drinking history and trivia with personal stories and the kind of questionable wisdom you won’t find in any textbook. Along the way, he explains how a thesaurus helped launch his career, defends one of Tom Cruise’s most critically reviled movies, considers how moonshine went from outlaw whiskey to something you can buy with rewards points, and wonders why humanity has invented so many damn words for drinking.
