I clicked 'Like', but it's really a whole lotta Love. I've been a fan of you and your writing since Bitters came out - I think it was the second book I picked up as I entered the rabbit hole of cocktails. I wasn't an original Last Call subscriber from day one, but I think I was pretty close. I love all your work here, but my favorite pieces of yours are the personal sentiments, memories, experiences, and thoughts. I can relate to a lot.

Curious what the subscriber percentage is for Nevada! With over 2 million people in Southern Nevada I kinda feel "lonely" following you from Henderson. 😎.

I haven't had a Slurpee in probably 30 years but I'm inspired now to grab one at lunch today. For all you are and do - thank you! And I'm SO jealous of your awesome hair!!

Happy anniversary BTP and Last Call! I am behind again in my reading but promise to catch-up on all I missed the last couple of months during some upcoming vacation time.

I echo Pablo’s comments above - your writing and approach is so personal and approachable.

Cheers and here’s to year 3!

Thanks, Lee! It’s nice to know you have a virtual stack of LAST CALLs awaiting you (like a pile of old unread NEW YORKER magazines) when you have few time to dip in.

100 percent! Had a chance this weekend and about 1/2 way through my “stack”!

Have a great week.

Happy anniversary Last Call! I look forward to every post. And it’s hard to choose a favorite, but I love La Passeggiata.

Happy Anniversary BTP!! I value your transparency and kindness, and really enjoyed the ritualistic clinking of glasses in person with ya at Grand Army.

As for video content, I bet we would all love and enjoy it if you curated a series of conversations (whether Zoom or in person).
