The little details are incredible. I feel like the SoCal tiki community shares a special nostalgia; whether it be vintage bars, Palm Springs, or even Disney, we can appreciate and understand each other’s approach to the culture.

its almost sad looking back on pre 1960s America through this anthropological cocktail stuff. Even California was nice and full of white people.

I'd love to see an in depth tour of his tiki bar, like you did with the Breezeway. It looks amazing, it's also a reminder that my thoughts of converting my garage into a tiki bar would just label me as a fraud haha.

This is insane!! I use to have a photo of this bar, that I used as the desktop on my lap top. I never knew the who or where but loved it. Thanks for educating me Spike!!

Heeeey I've this tikibar photo as a wallpaper on my laptop for 10 years! Never knew where it was from.

So Cool! Great episode. Home Tiki Bar goals forsure! Working on Spongebob must have had a weekly excuse for the staff to hang at a local tiki bars... y'know strictly for research hahaha

Here I am, discovering more videos I haven't seen :) Cocoanut Grove fun tie-in: for a few years about a decade ago, I ran a mid-century lounge night at one of our best punk/music dives here in Indy, the Melody Inn. We always had a live band... anything from swanky lounge, 60's tiki, NOLA jazz, etc, etc, and I also had a long playlist of mid-century stuff (crooners, tiki, jazz, big band) I played between sets. I was inspired to call the night "Cocoanut Grove" after seeing the movie The Aviator and reading up on the history of the Hollywood club. I wore a tux as MC. Great times :)

Hope you’re planning a part two. There’s so much more here I’d love to know and see. Great episode as always. You really know how to bring it!

My band has a tiki bar on stage and we have one of those ice buckets. We have NOTHING at all to do with Tiki, but the bartender sings backup and books all the shows. Haha.

Awesome as usual!

Great episode, thank you! The montage at the end was really neat.

Just…….amazing! I really like that the man is quite humble and it’s good to see people like him live out his dreams! Another banger of an episode Spike!

There was an "Aloha From Bikini Bottom" SpongeBob rug in the garage when I bought my house. It's still there today, always makes me smile

great video and that bar is the stuff my dreams are made of.

I like Tiki because when I was young my parents use to take us to a tiny little hole in the wall Tiki Restaurant that had Polynesian look and food menu, and I just thought it was so different, pirate like, special even though I was way too young to drink.. it reminds me of those times.

Would love to get a closer look at that menu. Definitely a project I need to take on

Who made the physical bar itself? That is gorgeous
