Master Distiller, Tom Burkleaux, will be the featured guest on the Ed Forman Show at Dante's. From Ed's website: "Ed Forman makes history every Tuesday night in Portland, when he hosts his own live, 70s style, late-night talk show . . . . Each week audiences are treated to a mix of life-changing motivational lessions, impoversihed comedy sketches, music from a new local house-band, and in-depth interviews with some of Portland's wildest characters. As a late-night talk show host, Ed has been labeled the Uber-Host: a delightful mix of Johnny Carson, Ellen, Oprah and a drunk."
