The Global Barstool was born from a simple love for bourbon, cigars, and real conversation. Founded by a world traveler who finds meaning in shared moments, this platform exists to honor the unfiltered stories of everyday people—across borders, backgrounds, and beliefs.

What started as a personal passion became something much deeper: a seat at the table for truth. Whether it’s over a glass of bourbon in Panama, a cigar in New Orleans, or a quiet moment in a dive bar anywhere in the world, The Global Barstool invites people to speak honestly—without scripts, without pretense, and without judgment.

Here, it’s not about politics or perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about listening.

Because every story has weight.

And every voice deserves a seat.
