In this episode of Restaurant Overdose, we explore the unusual, chaotic, and sometimes deadly history of what people have consumed just to catch a buzz.

We kick things off with a collab and taste test of Bakesale Vibes, a modern THC infused chocolate drink - and as the vibe sets in, we take a left turn straight into history.

From the real reason Prohibition started (and ended) to an unhinged WWII concoction known as Torpedo Juice (yes, sailors literally drank torpedo fuel), this episode shows how far people will go when alcohol is restricted... or simply not strong enough.

You'll hear:

• Our review of Bakesale Vibes (and what it actually feels like)
• How Creative people actually get when alcohol is restricted
• The terrifying recipe sailors used to "purify" torpedo fuel
• The deadly consequences they didn't see coming
• How modern edible drinks echo past trends
• The timeless human desire to... well... get buzzed

It's part history lesson, part modern review, park dark comedy - and all absolutely wild!

What started as a look into lawsuits surrounding Diageo's tequila empire turned into something bigger- a story of silencing, strategy, and stolen brand identity.

In this episode, we expose the lesser known legal battle between Diageo & 21 Seeds, the women founded flavored tequila brand with serious momentum-until it was aquired and quietly smothered. Why? To make room for a very similar Casamigos product profile aimed at the same audience.

We tell the story of Kat Hantas, founder of 21 Seeds, how she built her brand with heart and authenticity, and what happened when a mega-conglomerate stepped in - not to support it, but to suppress it.

We also talk about

• How Diageo uses shows like Bar Rescue to shape consumer perception
• What these kinds of acquistions mean to restaurants bar lists and the consumers who purchase them
• why the tequila aisle isn't as diverse or independent as it seems.

This episode is for the thinkers, the drinkers, and the disruptors.

In this edgy episode, we sit down with Jaz a proud stripper based in West Florida, for a raw and unapologetic look at what it really means to work in the adult entertainment industry.

From late night shifts to customer dynamics, we explore the crossover between strip clubs and service culture, where emotional labor, survival skills, and sales hustle are the norm

Jaz shares:

• What people get wrong about strippers
• Her personal experience behind the scenes
• The shared realities between servers, bartenders, and dancers
• How she handles the stigma-and why she refuses to hide from it

This one's bold, honest, sometimes funny and absolutely necessary.
