Diversity. Equity. History.
Hi, I’m Lauren Paylor, and welcome to Currency Exchange in partnership with World Class brought to you by Diageo. World Class is a leading voice in cocktail culture and exists to inspire people to care about what, where and how they drink. From Ketel One's community culture to Johnnie Walkers' scotch revolution, World Class has supported, trained and inspired over 400,000 bartenders across the globe.
My experience in competing in the 2019 World Class U.S. Finals displayed the importance of cultural exchange, networking and change. I’m delighted to have the support of World Class on the Currency Exchange Podcast.
Join us as we discuss impactful and pertinent topics led by individuals from around the world. These conversations will provide us with perspective and understanding when thinking and considering how issues affect us differently depending on where we are in the world. Each episode will incorporate a fun and innovative way of using spirits from the Diageo Reserve range including brands like Zacapa, Tanqueray No. TEN, Talisker, Don Julio and The Singleton to create delicious beverages inspired by the conversation we have with our special guests.
There is a great opportunity to connect with stories of our past and in our present. There is little value in knowing our history if it is incomplete and narrated in an inauthentic way. Your voice has value, just like currency, and collectively telling our stories will play a vital role in changing the narrative.
