More from Cocktail Nation
This week on the Cocktail Nation, Words With Wellsy gets things underway with a famous book called Of Human Bondage, we take a look at Elon Musk, flying cars, and the fine art of selling us a future that never quite seems to arrive. We’ll wind back to 1949 for a flying car that actually got off the ground, discover what’s happening in the world of swank, and ponder why the one thing that wakes us up every morning is also the thing we’d most like to throw out the window. All that, wrapped in a little tiki, a little jazz, and plenty of mid-century cool.
Beware Jilted Lover, all kinds of crazy can occur!

So pour yourself something sophisticated, settle in, and join me, Koop Kooper, for another edition of Cocktail Nation.
