[Ohio-Talk] A historic look at Affiliate Convention Sites

Fri May 22 00:43:16 UTC 2020

I remember Eric, we had that bottle ear marked to share and oops, it was
gone. Even the hotel detective was stumped. Top shelf stuff as well. I'm
thinking if you and I don't get invited to share a bottle of equal quality,
his microphone or convention streaming might fail...don't you handle those
things? Of course in Akron, good bourbon flows from every kitchen faucet.
