Late Night Conversation, hosted by Paul Martone

Tonight’s guests: Rachel Bell, Niki Ganong, and Patrick McDonald. Overcup Press is an independent publisher that specializes in unique titles with a strong design element. Patrick is the press’s publisher, and Rachel is co-founder and partner. Niki is the author of Overcup’s newest title, released today! 

When do bars make last call? How are packaged liquor, beer and wine sold in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.? What’s a “blue law” and will it throw off your tailgate party? This book keeps thirsty travelers informed when they cross a state line, and keeps armchair travelers entertained as they consider the complexity and variety of state laws enacted since the repeal of Prohibition.
