Hair of the Dog Episode 5 :Nobody Knows What They’re Doing!

Welcome back to another chaotic episode of the Hair of the Dog Podcast! Today, we are catching up after a busy week and breaking down the absolute madness of opening up a brand-new shop. From unexpected construction hurdles (seriously, why is there a giant pile of dirt inside?!) to the ultimate realization that absolutely nobody in the industry actually knows what they’re doing—we are exposing it all. 🥂 To help us survive the construction panic, we’re mixing up today's signature adult beverage: The Summer Shave down! It’s a tropical, summer-inspired blend featuring creamy coconut Dr. Pepper, a splash of amaretto, a hint of caramel, and—of course—our go-to Tito's Vodka. Pull up a chair, grab your favorite drinky-drink, and laugh through the chaos with us!
