The bartender and the life coach deal with the question of cyberstalking! This question arrived via email, and brings up many issues, both moral, ethical and legal...we do believe it warrants a follow up post with a more in depth answer, but the bartender and the life coach kick off the conversation in Episode 6 of  TDG TV. Cyberstalking is certainly a concept that goes hand in hand with technology, and a concept that has become quite a concern. There are many levels to consider, from the simplicity of a significant other accidently finding your email open and reading a message or two,...

Now since the Oscar's can be a theme party, choice of drinks will vary according to each theme.  Since I will assume a Black Tie Affair, we will go with some martini's. Dirty Martini 2 oz Gin ¼ oz Dry Vermouth 1/8 oz olive brine 3 green olives (add or remove olives to your taste) small wedge of lemon (optional) Directions Into a cocktail shaker, pour the Gin, Dry Vermouth and olive brine. Add ice. Shake well. Rub the rim of the martini glass with the wedge of lemon. Strain and pour contents of cocktail shaker into a martini glass. Drop the olives into the martini...

The 2010 Winter Olympic Games wrapped up last night in Vancouver amidst much pomp and circumstance. The excitement and enthusiasm was high, but these Olympic games were not without their controversy. A question was posed to our Bartender and to our Life Coach via our Facebook Fan Page, and a request for a "signature Glenn cocktail" to mark the occasion...thus Episode 5 was born! The host country of Canada did "own the podium" in regards to record breaking Olympic Gold medal achievement, and so the signature cocktail Twenty Ten Gold was born. Our guest on the episode, Amber, truly...

Just wanted to congratulate the Canadian men's hockey team for their GOLD MEDAL performance this afternoon against our arch rivals from the U.S.  This had to be one of the best hockey games I have ever seen.  Although I was working a full bar at the time, and catching the game was tricky, I did manage to see the tying goal with mere seconds remaining.  But the best was watching, the guy everyone said needed to produce, Sid the Kid scoring the winning goal in overtime. I don't want to take anything away from the Canadian women's hockey team, cause let's be real here, they were...

This is for Lynn, and can be seen on episode 5 1 oz Goldschlagger 1 oz Vodka 1 oz Sourpuss Raspberry Build on the rocks in a highball, add a little grenadine and top with cranberry juice. You can hardly notice the alcohol, but to me anything with Goldschlagger tastes like cinnamon hearts. Enjoy, The Drink Guy Team

Dear Drink Guy: Olympic Hockey Team Hi guys...What is your take on the Women's Olympic Hockey team...Celebrating with a Bottle of Canadian beer and some cigars after the win? Some controversy according to media reports. I guess there was a 18 year old participating...Isn't this the same girl who scored the 2 goals to win? There was only media and workers in the building...I say let them have fun...I know I celebrated with a wine...minus the cigars..But if I make it to Cuba..you never know!! Lynn's Two Cents... Thanks for the questions (which was posted on our FaceBook Fan Page)...

The stage is set, the nominations are announced, and the outfits are ready...the countdown to the 82nd Academy Awards is on. The question is, what will you be doing to enjoy the event? Now we know, not everyone loves the Oscars, but it's a great excuse to throw a party, entertain your friends and have some fun! The fun thing about the Oscars is that the possibilities are limitless for throwing a theme party that will be remembered for decades to come! Choosing a theme that represents a decade, a category, a particular film, or just the celebration of the Academy Awards in general, allows...

Moving on! Our Bartender Glenn serves up a nice glass of  white wine, a 20 Bees Unoaked Chardonnay,  to our Life Coach Lynn while discussing the next question from our "Don't Cry in Your Beer"  forum. The question posed to our bartender revolves around the issue of disclosure in the early stages of courtship...not dissimilar to an earlier question posted on "Don't Cry in Your Beer" titled "How Many is Too Many". This question deals more with the specifics of what level of disclosure should take place, and when. Our Bartender and our Life Coach once more enjoy the light-hearted, tongue...

Talk about beating a dead horse...oh my gosh!! Seriously, this is the LAST time we talk about this topic! Fortunately Glenn the Bartender mixes Lynn the Life Coach a spectacular Bailey's Chocolate Cherry drink during Episode 3 which makes it much more entertaining for everyone...believe me! Adding to the entertainment is the follow up with moderator Ken and the grand reveal of the Air Canada "smelly guy" story! Our Bartender and our Life Coach are still fielding questions and comments on this topic, much to their complete surprise! Interesting the different paths that people's opinions are...
