We jet (metaphorically) over to Roanoke Inn Tavern, Mercer Island's oldest drinking establishment. The crew experiences a dive bar first: blabbing on about the history of this vaulted tavern without any drinks in front of us! Imagine the horror when we realize our highly-anticipated Round Two is actually just round one. At least we get to recount the days when the Roanoke was really an inn, along with all the questionable "etcetera" activity that took place. Recorded live at Roanoke Inn Tavern on 06/19/2025.

Has it really been 2 1/2 years and 3 DLSD seasons since we've recorded at the Zoo? And has it really been 50 years since a bunch of hippies bought a bar just so they'd have a place for the softball team to drink for free? Yup. In this very special episode, we join the Zoo crew to celebrate their 50th anniversary. But the history doesn't stop at [checks sliderule] 1974 because these dive bar vibes go all the way back to 1934 - even earlier if you wanna shop a convenience store. Recorded live at Eastlake Zoo Tavern on 05/16/2024.

Wonderful Wallingford is home to Al's Tavern, spitting distant from other Seattle classics Taco Time, Dick's, Ezell's, and The Erotic Bakery. Better bring cash and don't order the corndog. You're SOL if you want Rainier on draft. Luckily you can get a tall boy to hold you over (for now) until the brewery riots subside. Recorded live at Al's Tavern on 04/18/2024.

The Rickshaw is a not-so-hidden gem among northend dive bars! Get dinner and a beverage, or two, in the heart of Greenwood! Listen for fun facts about dance marathons, pole sitting, and more. No, we will not be grabbing the karaoke mic this evening but we will be swappin' tall karaoke tales. Recorded live at Rickshaw Restaurant & Lounge on 03/21/2024.

Our first pudding shots! We're at Leny's Place in Tangletown, nestled between Wallingford and Green Lake. This neighborhood bar is known for great burgers and unique liquor concoctions such as jell-o shots and "mystery shots." But we're here for the historic dive atmosphere and of course, the pudding. Listen in as we discuss Whatcha Drinkin' and wax poetic about the virtues of pudding shots. Recorded live at Leny's Place on 02/29/2024.

You can't drag yourself out of the gutter without hitching a ride on a Comet. A cornerstone of the Capitol Hill neighborhood's blue-collar history, and one of Pike Street's most famous watering holes. So much history and criminal exploits to explore at the Comet Tavern, we can't cover it all in one episode. But don't even get Sweet Lou started on the parking situation. The tunes get cranked up as the night progresses and we can take a hint. Listen in as the DLSD crew discusses mural art, questionable remodels, misleading business names, and Oktoberfest must-drinks. Recorded live at the Comet Tavern on 09/21/2023.
