Sometimes episodes of EBtM deal with the "what" — this one deals with the "why." Boston Globe reporter and podcaster Shirley Leung joins us to explain how Boston's restaurant scene has long been stymied by esoteric liquor regulations. This has a profound trick-down impact on the area's culture, its retention of young creatives, and its low-income neighborhoods. Fortunately, help might finally be on the way.  Hey, State Legislature, do happy hour next!
Be sure to check out Leung's podcast Say More  (the series "Beating Burnout" comes out this month) and her reporting on Boston's liquor license laws.
