Episode 12! Two-teen. You'll notice we have... a new logo! Thank you to friend of the pod, Ash Warner. You can find them here

This episode looks very clear, as in the audio is better. It smells like something fishy, like did my Speech and Debate coach hide my ballots during the senior year of high school? The mental scars are still there. It tastes like salt air, because the sound is good for a keel in the ten. You'll see what we mean.

Anthony and Fiona drink a 2020 Gruner Veltliner from Meinklang.

Episode 10! We did it. This episode looks like double digits. It smells like a social media giveaway. It tastes.. good. This episode TASTES GOOD. You'll see what I mean. Anthony & Fiona drink a 2020 Glou Glou from Las Jaras, purchased at The Heights Deli & Bottleshop in Lincoln Heights.

Episode 9! Where's the time? This episode is a white wine for red wine drinkers. It smells like excavated fossils in Jura (eastern France). It looks like new merch, which you can find in our link-in-bio! It tastes like saline, walnut, vanilla, and ripe pear. Anthony and Fiona start with a Sauvignon Blanc, which they got at local fave The Heights. They SommTalk about a 2017 Chardonnay from Domaine de Montbourgeau (a Jura white wine).

SLOMM-TALK ABOUT TASTE. BRUNCH DRINK ALTERNATIVES. AMAZING MAFIA WINE. ARIES BIRTHDAY SZN.

This episode looks a little bit longer, since Anthony and Fiona are reviewing two wines for your enjoyment. It smells like Medieval Times, not the dinner theater. It's tastes are refined, after listening to Ira Glass talk about tastes (they're also slightly watered down after having brunch with Becky). Anthony and Fiona drink a 2019 Tres Hermanas Pétillant Naturel Chenin Blanc from Lo-Fi (Fiona's fave producer) and a 2018 Pineau d'Aunis from Vignoble Dinocheau. Both were purchased at the great Lou's Wine Shop in Los Feliz. Adam Land and Niko Dz win our #VivinoWars.

Episode 3
This podcast smells of patchouli. Tastes like the leather seats at The Cheesecake Factory. Looks like a fresh start. Fiona and I finally give ourselves an outro word: #SLOMMCHA! Also we are the (un)official snack crew. We made a "company Vivino" and started posting our poetic, improvised wine reviews of what we drink on the pod!

This episode was bought for $11.99 down the street. It sat in our freezer with a wet paper towel wrapped around it for precisely 44 minutes. Alexa blared a timer, and we then knew this episode was ready. No chocolate-champagne brownie bites were harmed in the making of this episode. They were devoured.

This podcast has aromas of sustainability, drinks like leftist Twitter, has a body like a Netflix catalogue, and smells like industry secrets. Anthony & Fiona drink an Albariño and a Gavi.
