Description

Something a bit different to kick off Season 3...our first ever EXPLICIT episode! It's not what you're thinking. Just a few gentle sweary words. Because this one is all about Fake Booze: a bitter, twisted, dark and damp website stuffed full of satire lampooning the world of wine and drinks, whose strapline is, 'Like truth, but better'. It's the brainchild of hitherto respectable drinks journalist Chris Losh and it's painfully funny, so we wanted to get Chris on the show to bring us bang up to date with the very latest headlines, breaking news and absurd sideswipes at the world of booze. And to have a bit of a laugh. The episode features everything from James Bond to human sacrifice via hobbits, Ginfandel, dinosaurs, hungover graduates and Sea-vignon Blanc. We definitely come in for a bit of a pasting too. On top of all that, we manage to be serious for a moment and recommend a FANTASTIC value Sicilian red. Enjoy the show! PS: If you like what you hear, please do consider leaving us a positive rating and review, we'd love to hear from you and we really appreciate your time in doing so.
