## Caption

Pour a glass and pull up a chair. Welcome to BroBible Side Quests. Today we post up at Old Lightning speakeasy in Los Angeles with Andrew McMahon (Something Corporate, Jack's Mannequin, Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness) for an unforgettable tasting of rare and vintage mezcal.

In a nearly hour-long conversation with BroBible's Brandon Wenerd, Andrew shares untold stories from every era of his multi-decade music career. We cover everything from navigating the chaotic pop-punk scene of the early 2000s and surviving a battle with leukemia at 22, to his current crusade against predatory concert ticket scalping.

Watch as we sip on a legendary mezcal aged in Pappy Van Winkle barrels, discuss his top five most influential albums, and debate the absolute best In-N-Out order of all time.
