معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
We are excited to be coming to you from the golden shores of California, the City by the Bay, and one of the tiki capitals of the world: San Francisco. This is Episode #99, the first of three conversations in Creative Distillation’s 100th episode celebration, which kicks off with Brad finally joining Tiki Time with Jeff to speak with Maggie Sanders, General Manager of Pagan Idol.
Maggie describes how she’s gone from growing up on a California berry farm to being the General Manager of one of the city’s more legendary tiki bars — all while mixing a Daywalker for Jeff and a Rum Martini for Brad. Jeff’s tiki protocol leads to a deep dive into the culture and customer experience of tiki, and the different ways different customer types interact with the bar.
After geeking out on tiki’s history and sharing their earliest personal tiki memories, Maggie, Brad and Jeff look to the future of tiki, and potential innovations and new interpretations. (A Black Sabbath-themed tiki party, for example.) As they (almost) always do, Brad and Jeff bring it back to showing the broader lessons that tiki culture can offer any entrepreneur, namely the importance of experimentation, adaptation, and storytelling.
It’s a truly delightful conversation with one of the best mixologists we’ve ever had on the podcast. There’s a lot of passion flowing — as well as rum — in this exciting episode of Tiki Time with Jeff.
Aloha and cheers!
