It's night one of a 5-part series highlighting our studio/offices at The Kitchen, for the 2nd annual This is NOT a Happy Hour event series.

The podcasts this week are more of a talk-show environment with people from all over the industry stopping by the podcast to chat about what they do and what's going on in the Food and Beverage community right now. 

Why isn't this a Happy Hour? NC ABC Liquor laws do not allow alcohol to be discounted at any specific time during the day, thus we aren't allowed to have that magical discounted time from 4-7pm when people gather at their local eateries/bars to network, socialize or just satiate their bellies, at the end of a long workday. 

It's a fun, short listen each day, packed with information and entertainment. Eat & Drink Merrily!
