Lindsay, Phil and Nikki interview the magnificent Ted of Ted’s Butcher Block and learn about a magical place called “Hank’s Starlight Lounge”.  We chat growing up in a restaurant in New Jersey during the 70’s and it’s super meaty…

Sam Gabrielli (The illustrious Bar Manager at Proof) returns to make everyone feel less weird about Amaro.  We drink Ti Punch and chronicle popular post shift drinks from the year 2000 and beyond.  It’s magnificent (and maybe a little fuzzy…)

Lindsay, Nikki and Phil explain why reptiles can’t love you and how buying breastmilk can be risky.  The fungus-hunting Claire Smith (who also farms at Spade and Clover Garden) joins us to explain how waiting tables drove her into the forest in search of inner peace. It’s pure mushroom madness. Shout out to the beautiful oyster mushroom attached to a huge bag of weird white stuff, (pictured above) you’re gorgeous.

Nikki returns from the Land of Ice to interview Adam Rothstein (Beverage Director of HomeTeam BBQ) and the gang learns about  a new pop-up happening in Charleston.   We talk why cocktail pairings are sort of ridiculous and how burritos are really only meant for one person.

THE Greg Tavares sits in for Nikki and we interview Jason Groce, Charleston’s sweetheart and stand-up comedian.  We talk near death experiences…which are hilarious and it feels sooooooo good to be back!

But we will be  🔙🔛🔝with our first episode of 2017 before you can say COooommmmMmmmeRcCial! See you next week and we love you all endlessly.

Nikki, Lindsay and Adam talk things that go POP and Harry Root (President of Grassroots Wine) is in the studio to spin tales of Danish comfort and the most iconic celebratory wine ever accidentally created.  SAYONARA 2016.

 

The gang learns about a new store on King Street where you can buy last minute holiday gifts and the trail blazin’ Maya Lovelace of PDX Mae joins us all the way from the West Coast to talk 4 loko, Rotel + Velveeta and making your dreams come true.

With the holidays hot on our trail we invite the Chancelor-of -Cheer himself: Vandy Vanderwarker (CDC of The Ordinary) in to the Effin B Radio Studio to add more confusion to the existing confusion behind the feast of seven fishes.  He tells us the qualities he looks for in an after-work watering hole and we explore how solar power is shaping the future of the Christmas Sweater. It’s Merry funny.
