The park preserves about 220,000 acres of lakes, islands and forest along the Canadian border near International Falls. While the park is being celebrated all this year, it's creation was not without controversy. Barbara West served as park superintendent from 1995 to 2005.

For as many times that we have said that there aren’t a whole lot of Scotch cocktails, we have another one for you! This one also has the name of a person, which sometimes is helpful like the Lucien Gaudin and sometimes unhelpful like the Barbara West. We are somewhere in the middle with The Mamie Taylor. This cocktail is Scotch, lime juice and ginger ale, and was often noted as being a refreshing summer drink. Mamie Taylor was an operatic singer who seems to have been involved in musical theater and plays around the end of the 19th century. While not famous per se, must have been of some note to someone in order to get a whole drink named after her. Join us as we discuss how this drink may have been a product of Washington correspondents, how no one reads anything before reposting it on the internet, and William “The Only William” Schmidt claiming that he actually invented the drink way before it became popular. The recipe is: 2 ounces of Scotch ¾ ounce freshly squeezed lime juice Ginger ale
At first glance, you might say that this cocktail has an unusual combination of ingredients, featuring gin, Campari, French Vermouth and Cointreau. And then you realize it is a Negroni with Cointreau. Oh well, there are only so many ingredients! The Lucien Gaudin Cocktail on the surface seems like a perfect cocktail to be able to research because, someone’s name! As our Barbara West episode showed, it isn’t always going to be that easy. In this case, we Gaudin, a champion, left-handed, French fencer, happened to be more of a household name than our vague Ms. West. Join us as we discuss whether this drink was something Gaudin was a fan of, or if he was lending his name to a book to add a celebrity endorsement. This episode takes us into the world of championship fencing, the Olympics, and duels! No joke, 20th century duels were a thing. History, you so crazy. 1 oz gin 1/2 oz Cointreau 1/2 oz Campari 1/2 ox dry vermouth
THE BABADOOK is directed by Jennifer Kent and stars Essie Davis, Noah Wiseman, Daniel Henshall, Hayley McElhinney, Barbara West, and Tim Purcell. Ba-ba-ba dook dook DOOK! Prepare to commit MASS MOVIECIDE!
Initially we all figured that this cocktail history would be a slam dunk. It has a name of a person...it's named after someone. It has to be easy to find out. We couldn't have been more wrong. This drink was a complete mystery. Jay could not find any references to it anywhere prior to our source book from 2009. So we couldn't find the source...and from there we couldn't identify the origin of the name. Looking at the name Barbara West itself, we searched for Barbara Wests of note. There is a Barbara West Titanic survivor. There also is a book with the title of Barbara West. None of these helped to shed light on the origins of the cocktail. This in and of itself is amazing. How does this drink fail to have any sort of background? How did our source book, Ted Haigh's Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails know about this cocktail to be able to list it? We would welcome anybody with some hard sources to share to end this mystery. The ingredients for this drink are: 2 oz – gin 1 oz – sherry 1/2 oz – lemon juice 1 dash – Angostura bitters We all decided that the cocktail was rather ordinary. Quite a bit of lemon with a hit from the sherry, but otherwise like many drinks we've already tried. We spent most of our time at the Brixton this episode discussing names and all of the ins and outs of naming people and pets. I would say one of the key themes we kept returning to throughout the episode is how names, books, movies, etc. that we think are amazing and perfect now may not resonate with culture in the future, so much so that the connotative meaning of an idea or story is completely lost much later. A theory was put forth that such might have been the fate of Barbara West. Is it possible that a cultural sensation got a drink named after it, but then quickly went away and was forgotten completely? Will anybody know or care about Harry Potter in 100 years? or Star Wars? Will 9/11 earn a footnote in the 21st century's historical record? It's hard to know what people will care about in the future.
