  • This half hour+ "quirky" wine pairing show with Jeff Weissler & Constance Ohlinger ND features four sections and was recorded in mid-late February 2023:

    Section 1--Wine & a Movie--A Man Called Otto, featuring Tom Hanks, was preceded by a Swedish version (A Man Called Ove) of which there was a movie and book.

  • Wine pairings and conversation get wacky as usual, with lots of educational tidbits thrown in.

    Have you seen The Woman King? Highly recommended. I think I cried eight times. Viola Davis is amazing. We share the story, the history behind the movie and suggest a specific wine to enjoy while watching. One of my favorite films seen in the last year.

    A bunch of time will discuss the Thanksgiving Feast and categorical wine pairings and suggestions. We also did into restaurants to head to for Thanksgiving if you're looking to go out this year!

    The Astrology segment is all about the magnetic, passionate, secretive, stubborn style of Scorpions.

    And lastly, Constance Ohlinger ND's Wine & Health segment introduces the healing tonic fire cider. That's an interesting wine pairing conversation! As is all the podcast :)

    Hope you enjoy, share with friends, and feel free to offer suggestions. It's a real pleasure to off this podcast to you :)

  • Episode 3 celebrates the start of Fall, and as the weather transitions, so do our food and wine choices!

    4 segments each about 6 minutes in length:

    1. Wine & a Movie, where we review a film then pair a wine to enjoy with the movie. In Episode 3, we couldn't find a good movie to go to!!! So, we reviewed and paired to a hot new TV Show--House of the Dragon (The Game of Thrones prequel on HBO).

    2. The Forecast, where we pair wine to the weather and use that as a bridge to talk about what to eat in that weather. Then what restaurants or food carts should we go to to find that food? For Episode 3, as the Fall is the season, we're talking and pairing apple pie :)

    3. What's your sign? It's Astrology and wine pairing time. Libra and a little balance in our lives is the conversational centerpiece.

    4. Wine & Health is an opportunity for co-host Constance Ohlinger ND to have center stage and talk about something near and dear. In this case, it's bone broth. Why is that beneficial, and yes we have wine pairings for that :)

    Hope you enjoy listening! 32 minutes in total. Feel free to share your feedback, and new episodes coming monthly!

    In Episode 4 coming at the start of November, we'll feature our Thanksgiving pairings!

  • For Episode 2, we got a MIC! What a difference. The first episode was a trial, done on an iPhone and we didn't even think we'd use it, but it came out too good!

    There's 4 segments:

    1. Wine & a Movie, where we review a film then pair a wine to enjoy with the movie. In Episode 2, we do a quickie on Everything Everywhere All At Once, then do a deep dig into the film, Marcel The Shell With Shoes On.

    2. The Forecast, where we pair wine to the weather and use that as a bridge to talk about what to eat in that weather. Then what restaurants or food carts should we go to to find that food? And lastly, what's the magic wine & food pairings for the dish we're talking about. In Episode 2, it's Ceviche and 2 don't miss spots.

    3. What's your sign? It's Astrology and wine pairing time. Virgo is the conversational centerpiece.

    4. Wine & Health is an opportunity for my co-host Constance Ohlinger ND to have center stage and talk about something near and dear. In this case, it's adaptogens. And yes we have wine pairings for that :)

    Hope you enjoy listening! 35 minutes in total. New episodes coming monthly!
