Sother and Greg! Please invest in some quality microphones and recording/podcasting equipment. I started listening to the show many years ago but you guys have not evolved technically with the rest of the podcast world. Content is great but it’s painful to listen to such horrible audio quality....Read full review »

Insightful, informative, and engaging! I recently discovered The Speakeasy and have already learned a ton. I can’t believe this content is free!

It’s so fun to hear bartenders I’ve been a fan of chat. Haven’t tried the mountain Suze yet— weirdly, I can’t find Mountain Dew easily here in boston either?? And I just didn’t try as hard— but I did end up dusting off the Suze bottle at the back of my shelf & remembering how good it is on...Read full review »

I may not be able to get to NYC anytime soon but it’s nice to hear what some of my unofficial mentors have to say about the industry and culture. Stay safe all! #kitmewithyourbestshot

Good times.
anttorre via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/14/21
I found this podcast in a round about way but it’s quickly become one of my favorite spirits/bars/industry shows. The guys are fun to listen to, the guests are knowledgeable and engaging, and it’s obvious each show is well thought out and prepared for. A great listen!

I’ve been listening to Speak Easy for many years. I love it. But, I just tried to listen to Ducks On The Water. Totally unlistenable because of background noise. Seriously, Souther? You’ve been doing this for a long time. You should have it down, technically, by now. The young lady in the piece...Read full review »

This is my favorite podcast. As an aspiring bartender/service professional, I love all the guests they bring on every week and learning about spirits, cocktails, history, and hospitality.
bdcontra via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/20
Damon and Sother are informative and fun, both good interviewers with great guests. Both have a great set of pipes too! (I mean their voices lol)
Davidddddddd1278 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/19
Insightful and engaging content from a passionate professional. Love the guests and the banter. Keep it up!
chris from richmond via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/03/19
One of my favorite podcasts. They aren’t afraid to talk about the reality of the industry, couldn’t recommend more!
ck4887 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/19
Always a source of inspiration on a professional alcoholic level.
Unregrettable Itunes Nickname via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/02/19
I don’t recall how I first heard about this podcast, but now I can hardly go a day without listening. (Given that the show has been running for so many years, there’s no shortage of episodes to catch up on.) I typically listen to two episodes while I ride my bike — and I frequently find myself...Read full review »

My Son, who has been living in NY for nearly nine years now, and himself a Bartender, introduced me through his roommate Blake Walker, who is working the Bar@ Amor Y Amargo on the lower East side! So one night last December I went with Danny, and was amazed how a little place like that can create...Read full review »

Obsession because I'm obsessed with this podcast. It's clever, thoughtful, curious, and fun. Giggles because that always is what I wind up doing while I'm listening - there are many reasons to chuckle and laugh as well. Bonus: I learn A LOT from these hosts and their guests!Read full review »

This is easily one of my top 5 favorite podcasts. It's always a good time learning about booze while having some laughs. Damon and Sother are awesome and their guests are always fantastic. Keep up the good work!Read full review »

As an enthusiast, I appreciate the insight and knowledge that this show brings to me every time I listen. Thanks you two!
naoyawada via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/18
Does anyone else ever tire of Sother Teague talking about himself/his endeavors? Damon was always the consummate host; he only allowed the guests to talk about him and his accolades. 5 stars Damon + 3 stars Sother = 4 stars. Great show, great guests, maybe just keep the overt self promotion to...Read full review »

Jvadurro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/18
I love listening to this podcast! It is like hanging with pals and hear what is new and relevant in the bar I distort from events to authors to notable bartenders. Check it out!

They don’t take themselves to seriously, but still keep it informative.

I've been listening for a little while now it's enjoyable, not super educational. More of a cocktail Drive-Time show than anything. Wisconsin Dairy Board really needs to keep sponsoring the show, I get a good chuckle out hearing Souther's stupid quib about milk and cheese. Also not...Read full review »

As someone who is into cocktails, I enjoy this insider look into the bar industry and the world of alcohol.
rostandamelie via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/25/17
I have binge listened to the show & I do love the knowledge, guests & product info. The only constructive criticism I have is, and I'm not trying to be mean, is finish your thoughts better. There is a lot of stammering, "Well....I mean....umm....so....what I....so...." gets a...Read full review »

It’s “car talk” for bartenders. Amazing podcast. This has been incredibly helpful for me, as a bartender, by furthering my education and inspiring me. A++, 10 gold stars, 7 grammys, 5 james beard awards.
mcwen1991 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/16
I want to be a guest - just a chill podcast all the way around
tkd7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/16
I implore you to start this from the beginning. This podcast is like being a fly on the wall listening to a conversation between cocktail Gods.
CocktailTiburon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/15
I'm biased, as I'm friends with Damon and many of his interviewees, but the booze tinged (if not soaked) anecdotes are always fun.Read full review »
