Bar Snacks with Terry Marks (Episodes 29, 30, 31 and 32)
Sometimes, in spite of their better judgment, friends choose to join us in the bar. One of our drinking buddies is artist, autodidact and bon vivant in Seattle and beyond named Terry Marks.
The embodiment of the sacred and profane, Terry is a designer, writer, sometimes do-gooder, and lover of banter, among other things. (Let’s just say he’s a storyteller.) He can say, “I have goats in my pants.” in Latvian and was mistaken numerous times while in Bali for the Hong Kong actor/singer/producer Andy Lau. That was 20 pounds ago.
Feel free to gobble these all up at once or a bite at a time. We’re not here to judge.
