    Dropped my rating from 2 stars to 1 since hosts can’t stop talking about themselves instead of getting to topic in title of episode.

  • Conservative Drink Wine too

    Love the pod and have listened for years. But any chance we can cut the snide shots at conservatives. There's a world outside of NYC. Actually most of it is. And a LOT of us drink wine. I've been to Napa and Sonoma approaching 20 times. Love if you just stuck to the wine world. Thanks guys.
