Standards & Pours

A podcast where everything flows: music, conversation, enjoyment.

The Standards

Influential guests—from A-list musicians and performers to bestselling authors to financial luminaries—join us to unpack the songs that shaped them. Each guest brings a personal playlist as a jumping-off point for stories, tangents, musical insights, and unexpected connections.

The Pours

At the midpoint of every episode, we pause for a signature moment: The Pour Segment is a 1–2 minute on-air event featuring the premier mixing and pouring of a bespoke cocktail inspired by our guest or their playlist, and crafted by a mixologist selected by our sponsor.
