  This week we kick of a new segment looking at UFO sightings in the mid-century and the strange goings on in Levelland that caused cars to stop one evening. We have a letter to the show from a listener who took my advice but now regrets it and an interesting new bio pic coming out which has upset the person it is all about ..plus the story of Deli meat on a space craft that went wrong.   Nutty - Purple Panther Tabu Recordings - Enter The Spy Magician Dana Countryman - The Spy From Outer Space Serge Gainsbourg - Couleur Cafe Richard Cheese - Toxic Sammy Davis Jr- I'm Gonna Live Till I Die Tiki Lounge Crew - Hipster's Lair Honolulu Transport - Marvellous Martini Kings - Playboy's Theme Voodoo 5 - Chato's Ride Cocktail Inn -Tequila Messerchups-Wicked Game Mr Moai - Pool Of Love Tikiyaki And The Hawaiiana Brass - Sushi  Vibexotica - Song Of The Taino OMFO - Whimsical Realm   --

Step into the sophisticated, retro-futuristic world of Cocktail Nation, hosted from a Sydney Penthouse by the one and only Lounge Leader, Koop Kooper. This isn't just a music show; it's a weekly audio escape into the cool, crisp sound of martini shakers and the smooth grooves of a bygone era. Each episode of this podcast is a carefully curated session where classic lounge meets its modern descendant, neo-lounge, creating a seamless soundtrack for the stylishly inclined. Kooper doesn't just spin records; he brings the scene to life with conversations from the most interesting characters found in the swankier corners of culture-musicians, artists, and connoisseurs of the good life. Tune in and you'll hear stories woven between tracks, a blend of charismatic interview and impeccable musical selection that feels like an invitation to an exclusive, yet wonderfully welcoming, party. The vibe is consistently laid-back, intelligent, and dedicated to the artistry of cool. For anyone who appreciates the finer notes in both music and conversation, Cocktail Nation delivers a distinct and transporting experience, one perfectly mixed episode at a time.
