Cn831 Spyvibe -OK Connery

Tonight on The Cocktail Nation, we’re turning up the intrigue with shaken martinis and double agents in tailored suits. It’s Spyvibe — the soundtrack of secret missions, femme fatales as we head deep undercover with a look at OK Connery, the spy film that proves even your brother can get a license to thrill.

There’s music from Morricone, Nicolai, and John Barry to set the mood — plus, a few stories from the Lounge Life files, including a mysterious man spotted outside the Louvre who is probably one of our own retro brothers

And if you think modern life is absurd, wait until you hear about the medical miracle of the to***co e***a, we have a letter to the show that may or may not be a complaint
So slip into your tux, load your cufflink communicator, and join me for a night of espionage, exotica, and elegant absurdity — right here on The Cocktail Nation

Cn825- The Luckiest Fool On Earth

Tonight on the Cocktail Nation we're diving into some strange but true tales from the past. You'll hear the story of Alvin 'Shipwreck' Kelly-the luckiest fool who cheated death more times than Sinatra had encores. We'll take a detour with Bertha Benz, the first road-tripper who snuck out with her husband's brand-new invention. Plus, a peek into bizarre events you'll swear can't be real, and a lounge lover's guide to the coolest happenings from Sydney to Beverly Hills. So slip into something sharp, pour yourself a double, and join me, Koop Kooper, as we step into the swank.

We've got some fascinating mid-century tidbits in Lounge Life Magazine-

In our Stuff Segment, we'll revisit a Cold War clash that took place not in a war room, but in a model American kitchen.

There's new music from the Tikiyaki Orchestra and Brett Barnes' brand-new group, The Enchanted Tiki Cats, plus all the latest lounge happenings from Fort Lauderdale to Sydney. And, of course, a deep thought to sip on as the ice clinks in your glass.
