BONUS EPISODE: 40 Years of Bartell Drugs Memories with Howie Cohen


Listen Later

On this bonus episode of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Howie Cohen, whose 40-year career at Seattle's beloved Bartell Drugs recently came to an end. Mr. Cohen shares four decades of Bartell memories, including the time he stirred up local pride (and little bit of controversy) with neighborhood-themed mugs; when he led the charge to create the mind-blowingly popular Fremont Troll Chia Pet; the origins of the culture of candy bag-stacking at Halloween; and much, much more.
CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via space101fm.org. The radio station is located at historic Magnuson Park - formerly Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.
