We have a VERY FULL show for you this week loaded with conversation, personality and a mix of different topics. This one is special. First we catch you up on all the recent events with a bit of discourse. Next, we welcome Melanie and Val to the show to talk river cruises and theories on the afterlife. After that we settle in with Eric, Alex, Joe and Luke as we discuss We Have Only Left Earth, their brand new Ford Theatre Reunion album. Finally, award winning brewers Matt and Nancy join us as we delve into a wonderful beer from Zebulon Artisan Ales. EIGHT GUESTS this week! After all that, we share an extend cut from FTR's new album, chat up something fun to do this weekend and leave you obviously wanting more!

This week's Charlie Tonic Hour was recorded live at The Overlook Lodge on June 5, 2017. Inspired by an article from The Atlantic, Ginny and Charlie discussed their top three favorite movies (to rewatch over and over). They the cover the psychology behind why it is that we rewatch the same movies and TV shows time after time. They end the show with a spooky drink called The Graveyard from bartender Erin Fox who joins them live on the show!

It’s the Charlie Tonic “Magic Mystery Tour” Year 5 as Charlie hits the open road with Ginny taking her to an only recently disclosed location within the US. As you can guess from the episode title, it was Asheville this year. What an amazing city filled with beer, food, and stories. Ride along for a partial “road show” episode as Ginny and Charlie share audio from the trip, take you along for the ride and finish the episode from home once again this year!

Like the phoenix, we rise from the ashes of last week's lost audio seeing it replaced and better than ever. This week Ginny really does sit down with Ray Poole, author of Lessons From a CF Cornerman, to talk about Cocktails for the Cause! Surrounding this great interview is a show filled with things we sincerely love... 1) Conversation and storytelling as we derail a few times, 2) Blank Slate Brewery and a re-celebration of Fork In The Road and 3) Ford Theatre Reunion as they are about to unveil a new album. It's a packed and near perfect hour for you to enjoy!

It was a music-filled show as Ginny and Charlie check out the new Cincinnati dance bar Shooks and an amazing DJ at Japp's. Ginny sat down with Ray Poole, author of Lessons From a CF Cornerman, to talk about Cocktails for the Cause but some technical issues with the audio pushed that chat back until next time. We still find a way to rally and end with two cocktails made with Dry Sparkling Soda and music from Sir Sly. This week, as they say, the Charlie Tonic Hour must go on!

This week we have a full show lined up for you that's both thought provoking and story filled (once again). There's a lot to cover. So much so that we forgot one great story and had to add it at the end. That said, the discourse is loaded (and even includes a small announcement). The main discussion topic flips the idea of what we want in life in an interesting way, Mad Tree Brewing returns to the show and we close with a classic track Charlie rediscovered by Frank Black. All this and so much more begins as soon as you start listening! 

Charlie and Ginny Tonic are hard at work planning a few surprises for you this week as the countdown to episode #300 picks up steam! For this compressed episode, we catch you up with a few fun stories, indulge ourselves in some mint themed cocktails and settle in for some solid music to take us home. All this and a ton of upcoming fun events you can attend THIS WEEK... It's the Charlie Tonic Hour once again!

Ginny and Charlie are joined by Cincinnati bartender Peter Lusher for a Grappa filled episode! What is Grappa you ask? You will learn all this and more as Ginny and Charlie walk down the path of Grappa madness.

We're back with a full show this week as we look back on the recent Holler Festival, compare notes on the modern world of tattoos, try a military inspired spirit, catch some jazzy music and tip our hats to some upcoming fun. All this and more in just under an hour as the Charlie Tonic Hour returns!

Pop Art Con Cincinnati happened and it was a complete success! We have thoughts on the new con PLUS a look back on both S.P.A.C.E. and Gem City Comic Con. Along the way we try some fine bourbon, celebrate a track by Coldplay (gasp) and talk about Charlie's new look. It's a full show as we continue the weekly march toward a major celebration at episode #300!
