Happy end of 2024 sweet baby listeners. We thought we should bring some brightness and lightness to this real trash hole of a year... end it with a bang, if you will. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoy recording. We love you and we wish you a happy new year, filled with questionable choices and loose morals.

Dedicated listeners of the pod, this one is a little chaotic and tangential, but has a whole lotta laughs (1/4 of the episode is actually Claire and Kristene laughing). Will you be also keel over from the amount of hilarity that ensues when the gals consume more CBD cocktails?!?!? Only time and yours ears will tell.

Friends of ABV, we recorded this episode a long time ago. Fran is procrastinator. She blames it on being busy, but we all really know its the ADHD. Enjoy this CBD fever dream. A plus for you at the end, there is a Crumbl cookie review :)

Loyal listeners of this pod, who do these hosts think they are with all their reviews that they have going on?!?! And with kids featured no less? Is this pod turning into a family friendly affair?! I think we all know the answer to that question, lololol. Enjoy!

Oh hey ABV faithful, it’s officially summertime and that means one thing, it’s time to break out the easy drink- the canned cocktail. In order to help you sift through all the choices, the hosts have decided to bring back their review- once a week each host will pick a brand and they will drink (of course) and tell you what they think. Don’t worry, we don’t mind doing the heavy lifting.
This week’s canned cocktail: Kylie Jenner’s Sprinter.

Lovely listeners of ABV, when two cohosts are hangin, chillin’ out maxin’, relaxin’, eatin’ dinner and havin’ a drink, it’s truly, just them against the world.

Faithful listeners of ABV, sometimes you just gotta call it like you see it, and when the hosts are telling stories of a glorious night out on a delightful spring Sacramento night, it’s obvious… it’s the drugs. Get ready to dive into episode 207- maybe it will be the drugs for you too.

Oh man ABV darlings... when the ADHD is in full swing and all the cohosts got a touch or two, well, you often lose things, lose track of where something was placed, send the incorrect episode for editing, think you uplaodded something but didn't, etc. etc. So here she is in all her glory, the semi lost episode of ABV, well, at least lost for a week or two. Enjoy the madness friends.
