Cocktail Nation

Tonight on Cocktail Nation, we’re heading into the mysterious skies above Westall High School, where a famous Australian UFO encounter still leaves plenty of questions lingering in the atmosphere. We’ll also step back to a Miami drugstore in 1951, where a pharmacist’s hypnosis sessions had customers doing crazy things There’s a little World of Swank to put in your diary, and a Deep thought…..All that, wrapped in a little exotica, a touch of the mysterious, and some seriously cool sounds. So pour yourself something sophisticated, settle in, and join me, Koop Kooper, for another edition of Cocktail Nation.

This week, it’s all trench coats and twisted tales as we dive into a 1950s mystery with a lounge twist.
A riot with a punchline… a listener letter about a certain French voice… and a deep thought that might leave your tech feeling medieval.
Plus highlights from Lounge Life Magazine and a gig guide spanning tiki, jazz, and vintage wheels.
