This week the girls are talking all things service industry. From Student Sunday's to dating cooks, Lar & Ash will leave no stone unturned. The service industry can be a beast but it can also be a blessing. So open a bottle of Doohickey's California Red and save your Kohl's cash for another day because this episode is a beautiful mess that you don't want to miss.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY! As strong, proud women who continue to #DoItAnyway, Laura & Ashley are excited to bring you this very special episode of Red Wine & Chaos - with a bourbon twist.

In the first episode of their pandemic series, the girls are talking romantic relationships during COVID. Whether you’re starting a new relationship like Laura or celebrating 10 years of marriage like Ashley, COVID has really put relationships to the test. Find out what worked for them in this weeks episode. So pour yourself a glass of Yuli’s Dream, ignore the screaming kids, and give yourself - and your partner - some grace.

Passionate about bringing awareness and knowledge to systemic racism, Laura & Ashley couldn’t let Black History Month go by without discussing the need to do better. Watching the movie “American Skin” prompted them to have a vulnerable but real discussion regarding race and what they are doing daily to become catalysts of change. As a white mother to a Black child, Laura discusses what she’s doing, to the best of her ability, to prepare her child for the unfortunate world we live in. Ashley discusses what it’s like to raise her white child to be an ally to our Black community and part of the solution rather than part of the problem. They may not always get it right but they will never stop trying and they will never stop learning because people they love depend on all of us doing better. We hope all of you will join us and not be afraid to have the tough conversations that so desperately need to be had.
