We come to you from Blue Ridge, Georgia on family vacation! I'm joined by my sister-and-brother-in-law, Stephanie and Andrew Watson. We enjoy Wagner Vineyard Dry Riesling (2020) and Martinez Fine Ruby Porto while discussing how our vacation came to be. I ask about working through the pandemic as a teacher and for the police, respectively. Parenthood, Stephanie never seeing The Matrix and actors being typecast round out this vacation episode!

Unapologetically Me. That is how you HAVE to describe this week's guest, Lachelle Lewis. We enjoy a few glasses (Scarlet Path Syrah and Prophecy Pinot Grigio) as we discuss what makes Lachelle, Lachelle. She was open to answer questions from social media about diversity, inclusion, self-care and more! These type of conversations need to he had and I'm glad I was able to have them with her!

This week on Clueless Vino, we have Tommy Proffitt! We drink on some wine that only English majors could pick (Storyteller Cabernet Sauvignon and Da Vinci Chianti) as we reminisce on some of the courses we took at Randolph Macon. We also talk about the importance of managing stress at work and how a change of employment can improve your mental health. We wonder what cartoons could possibly have successful reboots and how to handle problematic shows from our childhood. We finish up his top 5 essential cartoons. We had so much of a good time, this is the condensed version. Be sure to check out the YouTube channel on Friday for One Last Glass for more of our conversation!

Do you smell what J How is cooking? You're going to wish you could in this week's episode, as I visit my guy Jonathan Howard. We enjoy two wines, Acte 12 of 1619 Chardonnay and Phebus Malbec but with a twist: Jonathan cooks up food to pair with it! We talk about his recent entry into fatherhood, his love/hate relationship with wine tastings and his views on college basketball today. It's the most delicious episode yet!

We're going on a (mostly) solo adventure for this week's episode! After 12 episodes, we're doing a check-in on the podcast. I reveal the top 5 wines if the show thus far and discuss what has made Clueless Vino an amazing experience thus far. I talk about companies using traumatic experiences and communities for marketing and my basic principles of human decency. I get into the J Cole's new album and basketball career, as well as the NBA playoffs before diving into the new Mortal Kombat movie. Anna joins me in discussing the film, explaining the difference between an action movie and a Mortal Kombat movie. Finally I discuss plans moving forward including very early plans for a giveaway to celebrate the first 13 episodes!

We're going international! This week's episode comes from the Netherlands as I talk to old friend and fellow alum Rachel Armstrong. I took a personal trip on her "wine journey" (her: Yealands Sauvignon Blanc, Jean-Claude Boisset Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Wakefield Shiraz; me: Cliff Point Sauvignon Blanc, Louis Jadot Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Davey Family Shiraz) as we discussed her life in the Netherlands-from her favorite Euorpean product to still crushing it on the soccer field. No two Yellow Jackets can get together without reminiscing on the good old days. From handling classes and sports to the age old question: Sheetz or Wawa. This episode is filled with knowledge, memories and laughs!

In this week's episode, we have good friend, Curtis Lopes. We had an amazing conversation about health--both physical and mental-- and the effect the pandemic has had on trying to balance both. With it being Mental Health Awareness month, I found it to be both thoughtful and timely. Afterwards we get into a few "Top 5" lists, including our favorite current rappers, as well as the best players in NBA history. Allergies, Baja Blast and the correct way to make Kool-Aid round out the first episode done on the road!

It's a very sober episode of Clueless Vino but it's also a special one because the guest is my son Dante! Affectionately known as (to me) "The Yung Gawd," we enjoy some sparkling red and white grape juice as well as sparkling cider. We discuss his school year and whether he likes in-school or virtual more. We also answer some fan questions, including what his super power would be and what Pokemon starter he'd pick. We also discuss why monkeys don't make the best pets. Having this episode will serve as a great time capsule as we grow older and it was so great to have this moment with him!

Teammates. Roommates. Friends. Brothers. Whatever role at the time, this week's guest, Innovative Learning Coach Danny Jones, has always brought an unmatched energy wherever he goes! And for his episode he brings a little bit of his heritage as we have Vikings Blod and Chaucer's Mead. We also have a bottle of Amici Sauvignon Blanc as we discuss teaching during a global Panda Express, his podcast with Holly Guelig (EDSPIRE) and random Randolph Macon basketball memories, including the greatest recruiting story ever. Danny is one of the most inspiring individuals I know and after listening to this episode, you will know exactly what I mean!
