Foodie and the Beast – July 9, 2023

Hosted by David and Nycci Nellis.

On today’s show:

·        Dave Delaplaine is the general manager at Roofers Union, and he’s a guy who feels strongly both ways. Dave’s first passion in the industry was and always will be craft beer. But he and the team at Roofers Union can’t stop experimenting and recently poured that same passion into agave spirits. So Dave’s in with tastes and talk of Roofers Union’s new Agave Room. Pour it on, Dave!                                                                                                                                                                        

·        Danish company GoBoat’s mission is to get us out on the Potomac with a consumer and environment-friendly approach to casual boating. Don’t worry – there’s no need to buy an expensive boat or even have considerable boating experience. GoBoat US wants its guests to enjoy a social experience on the water, while being your own captain. Lavert Phillips, the company’s CEO, is in to explain how it all works;                                                                                 

·        War has been declared – and you’ll love it, because it’s the annual War of the Rosès. And here to tell us all about it is JP Sabatier, one of the owners of 14th Street’s  Jane Jane;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

·        The Jefferson DC’s food and beverage manager Jonnathan Alvis also is in today. The hotel is marking the centennial of the building that the hotel has called home since 1955 with amazing, celebratory offerings in its signature restaurant, The Greenhouse, now helmed by executive chef Fabio Salvatore.
