#09 - (Un)covering It All with Sarinia Bryant
This latest episode of Sip Your Ass Down is a discussion with Relationship Expert & Women's Coach Sarinia Bryant. We discuss love, relationships, childhood traumas and psychedelics. But of course we start off the conversation with some fun (and explicit) topics that we can't mention here because it wouldn't be an episode of Sip Your Ass Down without some of that.
You can find Sarinia at her website, sariniabryant.com, and on Instagram, @SariniaBryant.
So Sip Your Ass Down with a nice glass of wine and come along on this wild ride with Keaton, Diana and our guest Sarinia!
#08 - It all goes downhill when you go to college - especially in the U.S.
Episode 8 is all about the differences in schooling systems in Germany and the US.
The differences between schooling methods begin in kindergarten and only get more pronounced from there. The one thing we call have in common though? No one knows what they're doing in school. And let's be real, half of this episode is Keaton bitching about college in the US. So sip your ass down, grab something that will keep you from flying into a complete rage if you're from America, or if you're from a better country, enjoy the knowledge you got without going into crazy debt.
#07 - The Positive Spin on Quarantine
This weeks episode of Sip Your Ass Down tries to take a look at the positive side of quarantine. While these last several months have been extremely stressful, there has been some positives that have come out of it, and trying to remember those positives has been helpful to making it through. We also briefly discuss the Black Lives Matter movement, how we're trying to learn and be better allies to support the movement from the safety of our homes. Self-reflection and improvement for the win! Sip Your Ass Down, grab your drink of the moment, even if it is just water in this heat wave, and listen in!
#06 - Introversion and Communication Between Personality Types
Welcome to Episode #6 of Sip Your Ass Down.
Today's episode is all about introversion - how introverts interact with extroverts and the conflicts that can arise from it. As with everything, communication is key. Learning how to communicate with others, especially with different personality types, has been key to us navigating our way through life and our relationships. Today's society seeming to favor extroverts is discussed and trying, as an introvert, to break into existing groups of friends. Basically, Let Introverts Be! So grab a drink, sit with your preferred people, even if that's just yourself, and talk about introversion with us!
#05 - Powerful Music and Women’s Sad Playlists
Welcome to another episode of Sip Your Ass Down!
This week we talk about our sad playlists, why we have them, what purpose they serve, and what's on them. Why is music so powerful? Why do some songs become permanently etched in your brain with a specific person or memory? And, because it wouldn't be an episode of Sip Your Ass Down without a tangent, we talk about names and the inevitable existential dread when we really think about them and what they mean. We definitely don't know the answers to the questions we pose, but we try to figure it out as we make our way through another glass (or bottle) of wine. Join us!

#04 - Gaming is Life... At Least in Quarantine
Welcome to Episode 4 of Sip Your Ass Down where we discuss gaming. New gaming, old school gaming, and the details of the games. Diana is a big fan of games with good story lines. To the surprise of no one, Keaton had no idea that games can have story lines that you follow to actually beat the game. Diana talks about games with the best story lines and how games can keep your brain active. We also touch briefly on male toxicity within games and making friends through games. Gaming is keeping our social quotas met through quarantine, so a big thank you to them. So sip your ass down, fire up your gaming console of choice, and listen to us talk about games!
#03 - 10 Years of Learning From Our Mistakes
How stupid were we 10 years ago? This episode of Sip Your Ass Down is a conversation about how the last 10 years have gone, and how different reality is from what we thought it would be. In the words of John Lennon, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." And just like life, along the way we found some other topics including standardized college acceptance tests, raising dogs and finally where we see ourselves in another 10 years!
#02 - Depression, Anxiety, Potatoes and Russia
Today's episode of Sip Your Ass Down is all about depression and anxiety. Diana and Keaton talk about their mental health struggles over the years and their coping mechanisms to get through it in hopes that it helps to show you're not alone in your struggles, and maybe share some good practices along the way.
