Post Death Soiree
Thu, Jan 8th
9:00pm to 2:00am
DJs so SICK they are DEAD! Mixes so lit they can only be described with compound words like "GothPunk" "DeathRock" and "DarkWave"! Dress accordingly and bring additional bodies, cuz those graves ain't gonna dig themselves. We'll keep dancin' on the SECOND THURSDAY of every month, until all the dead are risen.

Generational Therapy

Wed, Jan 7th
8:00pm to 2:00am
DAYUM we got serious shit to unpack about previous generations! So come in and tell your bartender "BOOMERS FUCKED ME" for a $1 shot of tequila, vodka, or whiskey to go with your frosty craft beer, crisp cider, or raw probiotic juice. Time to learn what Gen X learned, that alcohol fixes everything.

About This Newsletter

You signed up for this newsletter at that speakeasy on Burbank! We used to be The Other Door, but then California shut down all the bars for   two weeks to flatten the curve   just a few more weeks to stop the spread   another couple months because of Newsom or Trump or Biden or someone   one year because of a virus, so we said "What The Fuck" and reopened as Risky Business! We have no marketing experience, and our only skill is making drinks, so in our rare moments of sobriety, we just throw things we like in this email, and hope you like them too!
