This week’s pairing? A delicious Napa Cab with aftershocks. The 2014 Matthiasson was rattled by an earthquake while in barrel, and it shook us into a chat about natural disasters, including the recent flood that impacted our neighborhood. Earthquake? Flood? Fire? We weigh the options like it’s a twisted fantasy draft and admit which calamity we’d actually prefer to weather – with a glass in hand, of course.

Pour a glass and buckle up – this week, we’re sipping wine and diving into the recent wave of plane accidents and mid-air incidents making headlines around the world. From collisions to mysterious technical failures, it seems like every week brings a new reason to clutch your armrest a little tighter.

Are these just isolated events, or is something bigger going on? Is commercial aviation still the safest way to travel, or are we overdue for a reckoning in the skies? Join us for a candid, slightly buzzed conversation on the state of air travel and what it all means for your next flight.

Cheers, turbulence, and a bottle of Giant Sky Sauvignon Blanc – this one’s got it all.

Vaping, touted as a “safe” alternative to smoking, has flooded the market in the past decade with kids in middle school adopting the habit. I mean there are bubblegum and candy flavors, so it has to be okay, right? WRONG! Recently, cases of severe lung illness and even death attributed to e-cigarettes are increasingly making national headlines. Some states have taken the initiative to ban e-cigarettes, and the POTUS is considering an emergency nation-wide ban. Are these extreme measures, or is our government warranted in their alarmest reaction? Listen in as we discuss what’s behind the flavored aerosol vapor that has swept our nation, all while drinking a lovely Pouilly Fume (and find out if it’s actually smoky or if that’s just the namesake).
