Drinking, Gen Z, and Hangovers

Dave makes a classic hangover food, a bacon-egg-and-cheese sandwich, for guests while they talk about drinking. The Gen-Z experience is examined, stories about first drinks in the Amazon with strangers are told, and Dave recounts falling out of a window. At the end of the day, we learn some rules on how many drinks is the proper amount, the difference between great wine and bad wine and why it matters, and that flasks are, at this point, just for cowboys.For your chance to sit at our counter in Los Angeles, write us at tickets@majordomomedia.com with your name, social media handle, and a little about yourself.
