Episode 1:  The Manhattan
 
We kick things off right with the king of cocktails, the Manhattan, and enjoy tunes, laughs and talk with some of our favorite Belmont Burlesque performers!  Joe regales us with his first installment of “Around Town with Second Cousin Joe” in which we meet Lurleen, his very special lady friend.  (Please Note - podcast may take a moment to load!)

Between rounds of cocktails, we enjoyed:

Naughty Natanya telling us about some of her Tom Waits inspired stripteases...
