<p>This week on Vortex Radio, we have Jeff Merback. He’s the owner of the sister bar of The Vortex, The Highlander. It opened up two weeks before The Vortex back in 1992 and was the go-to hang out for our servers after they got off of work. Listen in to hear what it's like to run a smoky punk rock dive bar for almost 24 years, which is half of Jeff's life! You don't want to miss this one. </p>
