Somedays You Just Need a Drink (of Soda)

This is a happy video with John Nese, a retailer of small and unusual soda brands. He is the proprietor of Galco’s Soda Pop Stop in LA. His father ran it as a grocery store, but when it came time for John to take charge, he decided to convert it into the ultimate soda-lover’s destination. He explains everything you ever wanted to know about soda.

He has a very interesting perspective on recycling laws (which starts at 9:34 into the video). He claims they weren’t written with either the consumer or environment in mind.

It’s a little over 12 minutes but it’s a charming video that will teach you something about soda. He’s the type of guy you once found in every small town.

If you now want to try some of his unique soda brands, this is his website.
