Parole Denied

De: Jeff Burkhart

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Take one-part Mr. Boston’s Bartending Guide, one-part Anthony Bourdain’s Kitchen Confidential, a dash of JR Moehringer’s The Tender Bar, combine and you have the pure entertainment that is Twenty Years Behind Bars. Part trade manual and part psychological introspective Twenty Years Behind Bars Vol. II: Parole Denied combines real-life observations (by a real-life bartender) and information in an amusing and irreverent fashion.Jeff Burkhart is both an award-winning journalist and an award-winning bartender. His Barfly column (Marin Independent Journal, San Jose Mercury News, Santa Cruz Sentinel, Tallahassee Democrat) was voted best column in California in 2014 (California Newspaper Publishers Association, CNPA) and he has been voted best bartender in the North Bay three times; by the readers of Bohemian Magazine (2008), the readers of the Marin IJ (2018), and the readers of the Pacific Sun (2019). He has also contributed spirits/historical features to San Francisco Magazine, GFF Magazine, Capture Magazine and National Geographic Assignment.

FUN SHORT LISTEN

Overall I enjoy Jeff's humor and stories. I have never tended bar but as a chef I have spent a lot of time with such wonderful people, and the unique quirkiness of the profession. Anyone looking to burn sometime hearing stories from the barkeep's eyes I suggest this one. The virtual voice is a massive let down as usual but the stories do make up for it if you can get past the drone.
