SUMMARY:The Vault: A Rare Bourbon Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Some bottles are made to be saved. Others are made to be shared. This evening is for both.\nFred Minnick—author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller Bourbon Curious\, host of “The Fred Minnick Show\,” and one of the country’s most authoritative voices on American whiskey—leads guests through a curated selection of rare and limited-release bourbons that most collectors only dream of opening.\nThe setting is as remarkable as the pours. Guests gather among the living landscapes of the Naples Botanical Garden for an intimate dinner\, with each course designed to complement the evening’s rare expressions. A cocktail hour with passed hors d’oeuvres opens the night.

SUMMARY:Nikki Glaser: The Stunning Tour
DESCRIPTION:Nikki Glaser returns to Fort Myers at Barbara B. Mann PAH at FSW on September 19 & 20\, 2026!\nFor nearly two decades at sold-out tours\, and as the host of three hit podcasts\, Emmy®\, Grammy® and Golden Globe®-nominated Nikki Glaser has honed her shockingly honest\, no-holds barred style\, solidifying herself as one of the funniest voices in comedy today.\nOn January 5\, 2025\, Glaser made history as the first woman to host the Golden Globe® Awards solo. She received unanimous praise from audiences worldwide and rave reviews from critics hailing her memorable performance as “victorious.” She is set to return as host of the 83rd Golden Globe® Awards on January 11\, 2026.\nThis October\, in front of a sold-out crowd at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in her hometown of St. Louis\, Missouri\, Nikki taped her newest hour-long comedy special for Hulu\, set to premiere in 2026. A few weeks later on November 8 she made her SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE hosting debut with musical guest Sombr.\n2024 was a career redefining year for Glaser\, culminating with being named “Comedian of the Year” by The New York Times and one of the TIME100: The Most Influential People of 2025.\nIn film\, Nikki has a slate of highly anticipated projects on the horizon. Next\, she will star\, alongside Kim Kardashian\, in Eva Longoria’s Netflix comedy THE FIFTH WHEEL written by Paula Pell and Janine Brito. She will also co-write\, produce and star in an original comedy inspired by the classic game MASH for Paramount Pictures. This SLIDING DOORS-style comedy follows a woman whose childhood MASH game magically becomes reality\, and she discovers that the perfect life isn’t the one she imagined. Additionally\, she will star in\, co-write and produce a new romantic comedy for Universal Pictures with Judd Apatow producing.\nFollowing the success of her Critics Choice Award-nominated HBO standup special\, GOOD CLEAN FILTH in 2022\, Glaser’s highly anticipated second HBO comedy special\, SOMEDAY YOU’LL DIE premiered in May 2024 to a record-breaking audience. It set the record for both the best premiere night for an HBO comedy special in more than two years and for the #1 largest streaming audience for a Comedy Special in HBO Max/Max history. Glaser was nominated for an Emmy® Award for “Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded)\,” a Grammy® Award for “Best Comedy Album\,” a Golden Globe® Award for “Best Performance in a Stand-Up Comedy on Television\,” a Critics Choice Award for “Best Comedy Special” and a WGA Award for “Comedy/Variety Special\,” which she won. Glaser also wrote and performed “Someday You’ll Die” the special’s theme song that is available on all streaming platforms. The single was recorded in Glaser’s hometown of St. Louis with producers Dan Monahan and Tim Convy. Released by Bailey Blues in partnership with Redbird Records\, the track shows a different side of Glaser\, but fans of her comedy will recognize her trademark wit and authenticity throughout the lyrics.\nGlaser was also the undeniable standout on Netflix’s Emmy®-nominated THE GREATEST ROAST OF ALL TIME: TOM BRADY which earned her viral attention and reinstated her title as “the best roaster on the planet” according to Indiewire. The roast aired live and unedited on Netflix from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on May 5\, 2024.\nGlaser can currently be seen on her ALIVE AND UNWELL tour across the US\, Canada and Australia through October 2025\, after wrapping her global THE GOOD GIRL tour in 2024.\nFrom March 2021 to March 2025\, Glaser hosted THE NIKKI GLASER PODCAST for iHeartMedia and Will Ferrell’s Big Money Players Network\, where she provided a fun and brutally honest look into pop-culture and her personal life in weekly episodes. THE NIKKI GLASER PODCAST was nominated for “Best Comedy” by the 2025 iHeart Podcast Awards.\nNikki hosts and executive produces LOVERS AND LIARS (formerly FGIRL ISLAND)\, which premiered on the CW on April 11\, 2024. LOVERS AND LIARS is the female spinoff of the hit HBO Max reality dating series FBOY ISLAND\, which Nikki hosted and executive produced for three seasons. The Washington Post hailed FBOY ISLAND as “deliciously twisty” and TIME called it a “compelling and clever masterpiece” with “smart execution” noting that\, “An advisor to the women and a gentle antagonist to the FBoys\, Glaser\, a comedian\, brings just the right level of self-aware humor.” Season one of FBOY ISLAND had the biggest premiere weekend for an HBO Max Original reality series since the platform’s launch.\nNikki took her love of reality TV to the next level by starring in\, and executive producing\, the E! half-hour reality sitcom WELCOME HOME NIKKI GLASER? Uprooted from her fast-paced Hollywood lifestyle\, Nikki returns to her hometown of St. Louis where she embarks on a hilarious and often uncomfortable journey of self-discovery. Unfiltered\, relatable\, and unapologetically herself\, Nikki navigates friends\, family\, and romance as a homegrown local celebrity.\nPreviously\, Nikki flexed her over-sharing muscle as the host of Comedy Central’s first live daily morning show\, YOU UP WITH NIKKI GLASER for SiriusXM\, which ran from February 2018 to October 2020. Nikki’s most recent Netflix comedy special\, BANGIN’\, was released in October 2019. BANGIN’ was the most watched special on Netflix when it premiered. Nikki hosted\, co-created and executive produced the critically acclaimed and daring comedic show\, NOT SAFE WITH NIKKI GLASER\, for Comedy Central and NIKKI & SARA LIVE for MTV.\nNikki was a standout on three Comedy Central Roasts\, including those of Bruce Willis and Rob Lowe\, which led to her guest-hosting JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! and hosting the inaugural edition of the 2021 MTV MOVIE & TV AWARDS: UNSCRIPTED\, which earned her stellar reviews. She also had memorable film and television roles in Judd Apatow’s TRAINWRECK\, NBC’s AP BIO and INSIDE AMY SCHUMER\, amongst others. In November 2022 Nikki was a triumph coming in third place on the ninth season of the hit FOX series THE MASKED SINGER.\nNikki has multiple stand-up specials and late-night tv appearances in which she jokes about her most humiliating moments as a woman in the modern world. Nikki’s past and current struggles with anorexia\, depression\, and anxiety are fair game in both her stand-up\, and in-depth interviews with THE HOWARD STERN SHOW\, WTF with MARC MARON\, CONAN O ́BRIEN NEEDS A FRIEND and THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE. She has become a complete open book on mic for the laughs and as the empowering voice for women that she yearned for as a confused adolescent.
