Bananagans in the Banana Zone: Episode 63 (A Brief History of Banana Republics)

Happy 2023! We made it and the last 3 years can eat it! We are moving into 2023 with the fierceness of a 19yr old Swedish climate activist, watch out! In this very special episode, we are graced by the presence of the hysterical hosts of the Share History podcast, Natalie and Cass. 

In this episode, we are drinking a deliciously simple bourbon based cocktail called the Brown Derby that features grapefruit juice and honey syrup. This strong drinkable concoction’s popularity matches the era of SHARED HISTORY’s scandal.
