Episode Notes

Earlier this summer, bars and restaurants in the U.S. fully emerged from the pandemic, many operating under new sets of guidelines to keep guests and staff safe. With the delta variant now surging and wildly different rules and regulations taking shape across the country, we check in with bar owners in different parts of the country to see what their experiences have been and how they’re navigating these new challenges: Jessica Sanders from DrinkWell in Austin, Texas, and Briana Volk from Portland Hunt & Alpine Club in Portland, Maine.
