Opening time for a brand new Portland bar as Dr. Xander Gerrymander and Dr. K talk with Nick Flower about why the heck would anyone want to open their own bar. They go in depth with the mindset and reasons one might embark on this endeavor and the psychology of creating a place of their own. They ask … why? And why a few more times. But also what it takes to be a stand out in a city already full of bars. Vibe creation? Menu making? We will find out!


Theme song “Just A Little Drink” performed by Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra (1925)
