  • Wow!

    What a smooth podcast! I can not believe I have played all episodes in one shoot already. I will play a couple more times for sure. I think this could be ideally called season one of Cocktail Nation. Well done!

  • I always come back to this podcast...

    I really enjoy the selection of music on these podcasts . Koop‘s voice is dreamy and relaxing... Its a great podcast to just get out of head for a lil while and daydream about swanky lounges and dapper, well dressed men and women, sipping colorful cocktails and dancing and chatting the night away.
