A law office high above Cincinnati is an unusual setting for a tequila tasting but sometimes you just have to follow where the alcohol leads. This week Ginny and Charlie meet with two of the owners of el Arco premium tequila to taste their wears and learn what makes el Arco stand apart from the other top shelf tequila brands. Along they way they also get a nice lesson in the nature and history of tequila.

It was a quite, contemplative week for Ginny and Charlie since they spent most of it at Ohio Valley Yearly Meeting getting their Quake on, but that only means they came back ready to rock and roll all the harder. On this week’s show Ginny and Charlie explore the changing face of YouTube while discussing the documentary Please Subscribe as well as finding out just how Cincinnati came to be ranked the 6th most sinful city in America by a recent article. A review of Larceny Bourbon and a sexy song close out the show. Hope you enjoy!

Have you heard of the Bluegrass Sundown? It is a dark roasted coffee infused with Kentucky Bourbon and sugar which makes a wonderful little cocktail that’s really quite original. How does it taste in other mixes? Ginny Tonic and Charlie explore this Irish Coffee with a decidedly Kentucky spin and share all the details in this week’s episode!

After a busy week filled with stories, we're feeling the pull to talk tech as both of our main discussion segments play around with the concept of tech in our lives. First, we look at the emotional impact of things like Facebook and Instagram then turn our attention to a Twitter assault in the news. How does Jane Austin and a July Christmas come into the discussion? Where does Lucinda Williams and Molly Wellman fit into this equation? You'll just have to listen and learn.  

While tearing through Over-The-Rhine (OTR) here in Cincinnati on a fun night, a slightly inebriated Ginny Tonic and Charlie share a very classic Manhattan with Zachary Yingling at the ever amazing Japps Since 1879. Join us for the conversation, the atmosphere and the cocktail!

It's a beautiful summer day here at the Charlie Tonic studios and we have a fun episode lined up for you. After a short Discourse Intercourse segment, Ginny Tonic and Charlie begin with a discussion of the documentary Prohibition but end up covering a lot of political and philosophical ground before they're done. What exactly does Charlie wish he could say on a show but hasn't? Listen and find out! 

It is a beer kind of day. Ginny and Charlie taste and discuss the Dundee Beer Spring/Summer Variety pack that includes a Kolsch-style ale, a Pale Bock Lager, a Stout and an India Pale Ale. Four beers for the price of one podcast? That’s a deal you can’t miss.

Ginny and Charlie and bringing the fun back hard this week. After making a major podcasting revelation, Ginny and Charlie discuss their recent trip to Kings Island and share tips for making your amusement park experience a good one. Then they answer a listener question about what makes a good bar, try a local beer, and come back after the break with a second discourse intercourse. That’s right, it’s a two-intercourse show this week so you know you won’t want to miss that.

Way back when Ginny and Charlie were first starting the Charlie Tonic Hour, a friend named Calamity Dawn made them an official Charlie Tonic cocktail. Now, over a year and half later Ginny and Charlie have added a second podcast and that friend has graduated bartending school and is on her way to becoming a professional mixologist. Yes, times have changed but we have not. In today’s show you can hear how Calamity Dawn got started in creating her custom drinks that she is now famous for in Steampunk circles and the inspiration behind the Charlie Tonic. Cheers!

Life returns to normal following Derby City Comic Con, or at least as close to normal as and Ginny and Charlie are capable of getting. First they discuss an article by a recovering Manic Pixie Dream Girl and how fiction creates our reality. A quick discussion of two compelling apps is followed by a Trappist beer and a British band with a French name and an Italian song. So yeah, that sounds about normal.
