    Episode 112: The Unsinkable Molly Brooks

    Over the many illustrious years that this podcast has been in existence, we've avoided interviewing any real people. Because real people, like Warhol's art subjects, are actually quite boring.

    Enter Molly Brooks.

    Molly is a sommelier/industry extrordinaire from the sumptuously sunshiny San Diego area and I believe you'll find her as remarkably interesting as I do.

    I'm not interested in interviewing boring people.

    Enjoy the exception: 

    The wickedly intelligent, provocatively well-spoken, Molly Muthalovin' Brooks.

    Episode 111: My Sherry? Uh. . .More.

    On this episode, grab your tiny, tulip glasses and seat your rump on a seaside stump. It's time to learn all about Sherry.

    Tap some ass and order some tapas and tap a short glass of all that is encompassed within this illustrious return to podcasting form.

    Jason's back, ya'll.

    Episode 110: A Critical Review of 'Sweetbitter'

    On this episode, Sommelier Extraordinaire and avid TV watcher, Jason Booth, puts on his critical pants and does a thorough review of the new Starz television show 'Sweetbitter' based on the Stephanie Danler novel of the same name.

    The novel is called 'Sweetbitter', not 'Of the Same Name', though if there were a novel called that, my intense hope would be for it to be made into a TV show for the sheer fun of the double entendre.

    On this episode, I use the all of the meanings for all of the words (segue) to roll right over the idiocy included therein.

    Nothing is sharper than a clever tongue (other than an eyelid papercut)

    Enjoy the savagery of my Hotcake Hot Takes.

    Episode 108: Sémillon Kiss Goodnight

    On this episode Jason is wearing a long, sheepskin turtleneck and pouring lemony water all over his body. Why? To be thematic, ya dumb-dumbs.

    This is the Sémillon podcast and no, he won't apologize for it. *Snap, Snap, Snap!*

    Episode 107: The Bordeaux Blenditage

    On this episode, Jason teaches the homies what each grape contributes to the final product of the famous Bordeaux Blend.

    He also uses way too many metaphors and similes and probably exhausts that family member in your car that doesn't want to listen to another one of these episodes but you're making them anyway because you have a quirkier sense of humor than they do and you just had to sit through their entire Post Malone album.

    Also, please check out our sponsor: www.wineaccess.com/homies to get 20% off on all wine purchases and, trust me on this peacocks, they've got some hole-in-the-wall stunners that'll really please the hole-in-your-face; or maybe, just that favorite holy man in your life looking to pump up the communion wine list at your favorite hipster mega-church. Whatevs--this shiz is bananas. Use my promo code and drink up me hearties, yo ho.

     

    OKAY GOODBYE THANKS FOR READING ALL OF THIS I REALLY APPRECIATE HOW BORED YOU MUST BE I'M NOT YOUR MOM YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT.

    Episode 105: Five Finger Lakes Death Punch

    First and foremost: Go to www.WineAccess.com/HOMIES to received a limited time offer of 20% off all purchases thanks to this very podcast. YOU'RE WELCOME. Wine Access features hard-to-find bottlings with some big name stunners mixed in that have all been specially selected by people with X-Men like palates. DON'T BELIEVE ME? Then you're an idiot and you simply can't be helped, get out of my life. Once again that's www.WineAccess.com/HOMIES.

    On this historically momentous episode of Wine for Sophisticated Homies, Jason teaches you all about the Finger Lakes AVA in the state of New York, which, as you know, is a concrete jungle where dreams are made of...there's nothing you can't do.

    And that includes wine-making in the northern parts of the state.

    Slate-driven Riesling of a dry ilk? Yeah, they've got that. And I've got the facts. So let's get factual, Homies.

     

    Also Cats, with skills.

     

    Catskills.

    Episode 104: Gorgeous Georgia

    This podcast was discovered in an amber egg, from the DNA of a hipster mosquito that was trapped there for years...like...since 2011.

    I used science to get the cool ass audio shit out and download it iTunes. I know you guys want to hunt for your podcasts...not be fed. So hunt out all of the references in this one if you're hungry for some Jurassic knowledge on this ancient wine growing region of Georgia. The results will be eighty-seven percent more entertaining than both of the last two Chris Pratt-led movies.

    So says the Tophatted King.

    Episode 103: RoséInGlass and GildedStem

    Welcome to our first Rosé podcast.

     

    NOT! If you even read these descriptions you'll know that this entire episode is an elaborate trap to get you to learn about an entirely different subject. And what would that be? Well, I don't want to ruin it, but...let's just say that the Band is All here.  The BAND is ALL here.  Eh? Ehhhhh? 

    Welcome to a W4SH Shyamalan twist. Hope you're able to pick up all the pieces of your brain from the floor after it was blown to pieces. 

    ShaKlamaLamaBlamo as the best con artists are known are know to say.

    ShaKlamaLamaBlamo.

    A Brief Word on Tannins

    This is hardly a full length episode. Rather, this is merely an introspection. A research tangent. A dangling participle.

    Some words mean many things. Some words deserve a little more attention than others.

    And here we find 'Tannin' on the examination table.

    Jolly Good.
