Season 4, Episode 53, Jun 06, 2022, 10:00 AM
In this episode we are drinking an 1980s classic, the Amaretto Sour. This sweet “starter” cocktail featuring Italian liquor was popular in the era of TUX’s scandal.
In this episode TUX focuses on how and why Ronald Reagan is personally responsible for the death of tens of thousands of Americans who died of AIDS in the 1980s. We 🥂 to a long legacy of American presidents doing nothing to stop a public health crises and rather ignoring them and hoping it doesn’t hurt their approval ratings.
