I don't do bars, but I enjoyed reading this because of your tone, and the interesting set-up this Medium article gave it, obviously. How would you feel about writing "viral" articles for News Break, and then reporting on your experience over here, on Medium? That's kind of science-y, no? Researching...yourself.
Is that a little too weird?
All I'm saying is, I'd LOOK for those articles, and I'd want to read both the one on Medium and the one written for News Break, for context.
Whatever you decide, let it be the answer that keeps you writing! <3
