Hosted by Russ and Tony, each episode is 12 to 70 minutes of passionate blather about a beer and a song. We drink the beer. We listen to the song. Disagreement and ridicule abound. Sometimes there is more than one beer. Sometimes there are no songs. Sometimes there are multiple songs. There has never been no beer.

episode 190: 190 Yonah Mountain Vineyards and Tool
Eric Miller from Yonah Mountain vineyards visited the studio and brought a whole bunch of wine with him. As we talk about in the episode, we tried to do a similar episode a couple years ago, but the final product was nowhere near even our incredibly low standards. This time we pulled it off, and we learned a lot about grape juice. I thought about breaking this up into two parts, but it's really best as one coniguous conversation, even if it takes you a week to listen to. Finally, this might be the (unintentionally) lip-smackingest, mouth noisiest episode we've ever done (RUSS).
Some show notes:
9:30(ish) - we finally get into the wine and start with Sauvignon Blancses.
17:30 - we actually move toward the second wine, but it takes until ...
19:20 - a couple of Chardonnays!
~30:00 - lol a 12 minute song
44:20 - plug for The Trap Set with Joe Wong!!
45:25 - only six bottles of red left lolol, starting with Genesis 9 (Bordeaux blend)
52:30 - Genesis 10(!!!)
1:03:15 - Genesis X Classic (what even is this?)
1:05:40 - Andy Capp's snack things
1:12:50 - Katherine's Cabernet (o god)
1:15:25 - listener question from @gvonk, "If animals could talk, which would be the best conversationalists?" This ends up taking a ... really long time.
1:21:48 - Russ remarks that I don't edit these. This took me a week to edit.
1:22:10 - Totem Classic ("infused" with brettanomyces), lol jk
1:22:48 - "platently"
1:26:35 - We finally get around to the Totem Classic (despite being entirely dead at this point)
1:32:44 - "You're nailing the head right over the nail."
What a mess. So much fun.
