Cocktails with Friends

Love hearing the depth of knowledge across so many different features of cocktails. So many ways to learn not only about making your own cocktails but also about the variety of guests on the show! Cant wait for more episodes!

Interview with Rob Jarvis was great fun!

I really enjoyed the episode with Rob Jarvis of Bangor Muni Golf Course. Nice and relaxing conversation to hear more about the history of the course and the people that make it up. Looking forward to tuning into future episodes!

A Sincere, Authentic, Genuine Passion For His Craft

Bob’s personal passion for what he does shines through in such a genuine way. You can see the bar, picture the drink, and want to be there to join in on the conversation. An easy listen and joyful journey into the world of craft cocktails with some fantastic brands, personalities, and stories.

Good Vibes With Bob

Bob brings the same easy going, thoughtful detail to his conversations as he does to his iconic restaurant in Maine, Novio’s. I have been everywhere and dined at the finest the world has to offer. When people ask me what I love I always say there is a place in Bangor that will blow your mind. This podcast embodies the world Bob has created for authentic people, food and drink (of course.)
