Anthony Bourdain was our generation's greatest explorer of places near and far. Five years ago, he chose to leave well before his family, friends, and fans around the world were prepared to say goodbye. His legacy is baked into our effort to celebrate the venerable bars (and the communities that love them) of Portland and beyond, as well as how we engage with the world around us on a daily basis.
We took time to pour a couple of drinks and reflect on how his impact continues to resonate with us and others today before sharing highlights from our most recent Bourdain Day adventure (19:30) to the Germanic farmlands (and bars, of course) south of Portland, as well as a ludicrously self-indulgent trip to Las Vegas -- and specifically Downtown Vegas -- to celebrate Alfredo's 10-year bachelor party anniversary (29:08).
PLUS, we announced the bar destination for our next episode (37:51), pondered the oldest bar in Oregon, and, finally, raised a glass to the Stonewall Inn bar in The Village, NYC on the 54th anniversary of the LGBTQIA regulars there giving a defiant "we're not gonna take it anymore!" to those who would attempt to push them around in their local. (44:15)
Bars are community and communities are love and power. Cheers friends.
