The Drinklings

In this episode of the Drinklings, we are discussing the plot and characters in the classic short story “A Good Man is Hard to Find”, which was written by the great Southern Gothic writer Flannery O’Connor. We focus on the idea of what is considered evil in a tale, as well as discussing the character development involved in the story. Later, we dig into other texts that read into the story arc of O’Connor’s classic. The drink chosen was a basic Tennessee Whiskey and Coke, which was served by bartender Max at the great bar on the second floor of Nama in Carrollton, GA. Enjoy!

In this episode of the Drinklings, we are discussing the Robin Williams’ classic Dead Poet’s Society. We will focus on the ideas of what it means to be a teacher and how that plays throughout the movie. Furthermore, we question the impact of different styles of educational institutions and the students that they produce. The drink that we choose is called A Captain’s Pouch, which is a rum-based drink decided to fit with one of the more classic scenes from the film. We recorded this episode at Nama in Carrollton, GA with the wonderful Maddi as our bartender. Enjoy!
