‘Utah Booze News’ podcast: The one place in Utah where you can drink at 8 a.m.

(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Travelers walk through Salt Lake City International Airport, March 13, 2021. The airport is a lone bastion of relaxed liquor laws in Utah.

The Salt Lake City International Airport is in Utah. But when it comes to liquor laws? It’s not necessarily of Utah.

On the latest episode of “Utah Booze News: An Alcohol Policy Podcast” produced by FOX 13 and The Salt Lake Tribune, co-hosts Kathy Stephenson and Ben Winslow venture into the sovereign nation of airport liquor laws, where 8 a.m. drink service and airlines that offer mini-bottles are A THING. Nancy Volmer, the airport’s director of marketing and communications, joins the show to explain.

We also recap the last virtual meeting of the DABC commission, an entity that has struggled throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with an unmuted public and so many bad internet connections.
