This Pioneer Square music and drinking establishment opened less than a year ago, but we're giving Baba Yaga a free pass because the building it occupies has so much Seattle dive bar history. Plus, Baba Yaga is just dripping with all the dive bar vibes we love. Join the crew as we explore dive bars past, present, and future in this historic 1890's Pioneer Square landmark. To keep it real, we're joined by the Prince of Pioneer Square himself, Lloyd Gregory. Recorded live at Baba Yaga on 10/17/2024.

Special episode! Historic Wallingford turns Murphy's Pub into a roaring '20s style speakeasy. Celebrating Wallingford and Murphy's rich history in the best way possible: decked out in 1920s prohibition attire and drinking hootch on the down-low. The DLSD crew (well, 2/3 of the crew) was there for the live music, charity auction, and old fashioned speakeasy fun. Recorded live at Murphy's Pub on 09/22/2024.

The sign out front says Saloon but we've been told Georgetown's Marco Polo is actually a Bar & Grill. We like the sound of saloon better but we won't turn away from a good bar. And grill reminds us to not miss the famous broasted chicken at Marco Polo. If you don't know what broasted is then you'll definitely need to listen in because we not only talk about the history of the great Marco Polo saloon/bar & grill, we also get into the history of how KFC totally ripped off the the Broaster Company's revolutionary chicken perfecting technology. Recorded live at Marco Polo Bar & Grill on 08/08/2024.

Special episode! We partner with Shea and Jody from the Rainy Day Rabbit Holes podcast to bring a big ol' heaping helping of PNW history. We get in to Tacoma's salacious backstories, blowing glass (not to be confused with glassblowing), Surf x Surfwest music festivals, and we ponder the size of Sasquatch's junk. All this conversational goodness happens at the fantastic Parkway Bar & Grill Tavern mere days from their 89th anniversary. Shea and Jody are Tacoma homies so we head down south from Seattle to check out one of Western Washington's most iconic drinking establishments. Where's Tacoma? Google it. Recorded live at Parkway Tavern on 07/21/2024.

Is it Ballard or Phinney Ridge? Does Rainier taste better on draft or in tall-boys? Can you still find smokin' deals at your local thrift shop? Listen to this episode from The Tin Hat to find out. With all the tasty micros on tap you might think this is a snooty hipster bar, but fear not! Dive runs deep at The Hat and you can still Flatline. You just can't get a $1 hot dog unless you're a secret Stonecutter member. Recorded live at The Tin Hat Bar & Grill on 05/30/2024.

Has it really been 2 1/2 years and 3 DLSD seasons since we've recorded at the Zoo? And has it really been 50 years since a bunch of hippies bought a bar just so they'd have a place for the softball team to drink for free? Yup. In this very special episode, we join the Zoo crew to celebrate their 50th anniversary. But the history doesn't stop at [checks sliderule] 1974 because these dive bar vibes go all the way back to 1934 - even earlier if you wanna shop a convenience store. Recorded live at Eastlake Zoo Tavern on 05/16/2024.

Wonderful Wallingford is home to Al's Tavern, spitting distant from other Seattle classics Taco Time, Dick's, Ezell's, and The Erotic Bakery. Better bring cash and don't order the corndog. You're SOL if you want Rainier on draft. Luckily you can get a tall boy to hold you over (for now) until the brewery riots subside. Recorded live at Al's Tavern on 04/18/2024.

The Rickshaw is a not-so-hidden gem among northend dive bars! Get dinner and a beverage, or two, in the heart of Greenwood! Listen for fun facts about dance marathons, pole sitting, and more. No, we will not be grabbing the karaoke mic this evening but we will be swappin' tall karaoke tales. Recorded live at Rickshaw Restaurant & Lounge on 03/21/2024.

Our first pudding shots! We're at Leny's Place in Tangletown, nestled between Wallingford and Green Lake. This neighborhood bar is known for great burgers and unique liquor concoctions such as jell-o shots and "mystery shots." But we're here for the historic dive atmosphere and of course, the pudding. Listen in as we discuss Whatcha Drinkin' and wax poetic about the virtues of pudding shots. Recorded live at Leny's Place on 02/29/2024.

You can't drag yourself out of the gutter without hitching a ride on a Comet. A cornerstone of the Capitol Hill neighborhood's blue-collar history, and one of Pike Street's most famous watering holes. So much history and criminal exploits to explore at the Comet Tavern, we can't cover it all in one episode. But don't even get Sweet Lou started on the parking situation. The tunes get cranked up as the night progresses and we can take a hint. Listen in as the DLSD crew discusses mural art, questionable remodels, misleading business names, and Oktoberfest must-drinks. Recorded live at the Comet Tavern on 09/21/2023.

Is it a lounge or a tavern? Either way, North City Lounge & Grill in the heart of Shoreline is one great dive bar. Some patrons call it a tavern, some bartenders call it a lounge, and we call it the crown jewel of Shoreline's North City neighborhood. Built in 1927 - with pictures to prove it - this patina'd booze joint started out as a grocery store and now stands as Shoreline's oldest continuously operating business. Recorded live at the North City Lounge (or perhaps Tavern?) on 08/31/2023.

Not technically in Seattle, we give Engel's Pub in Edmonds a pass since it's darn close to Seattle and it's hometown to our own resident historian Brad Holden. This local dive bar is so cool, a couple of patrons buy us a round of Jello shots. How cool is that? And if that wasn't enough to bring smiles to our booze-loving shot holes, we also get free leftovers from world-famous Moto Pizza! Recorded live at Engel's Pub - just down the street from Moto - on 08/17/2023.

Join the gang as we venture to another of North Seattle's finest! The Caroline Tavern, a real "everybody knows your name" type of bar where nobody actually knows the bar's name because there's literally no signs anywhere. Well, actually there is one but only true bar flies know where it is. Listen to tales of neighborhood capers and local union bosses. May or may not be in Shoreline. May or may not be within Seattle city limits. The jury's still out on that one, so quit yer bitchin'! But Caroline is definitely across the street from the Seattle area's dive-iest golf course, Jackson Park. Recorded live at The Caroline Tavern on 07/06/2023.

We pretend to be locals and venture back to old stomping grounds for a visit to Sully's Snowgoose Tavern in Phinney Ridge. An eclectic mix of beer styles, Bavarian architectures, and old Seattle history, Sully's has all the charm of a classic dive bar with the added bonus of a fantastic tap list. Not one but two nitros, and not one but two genuine classic German beers on tap sets Sully's apart from the riffraff. If it wasn't confusing already, Sully's throws in Guiness draft and a huge Ireland football scarf behind the bar. Pie jousting fans won't want to miss this episode. And if you're not familiar with pie jousting, well you're probably not drinking enough. Recorded live at Sully's Snowgoose Saloon on 05/11/2023.
