Marie is back and in time for a tumultuous week of topics, with James pulling from the hat first to talk about Brexit and the British hangover over their surprising vote to leave the European Union.

Is it wise to let a coupon decide who cuts and colors your hair?  Of course, we’ve all got to weigh in on this and our worst hair-don’ts. Next up, James takes us on a trip to his favorite parks in Minneapolis. Dana decides to share a haunted tale, and then closes the night with a discussion on those things we love to hate. From customer service reps with too much power to the Oscars, we all have something we love to hate.

Episode 39: Game Time! Tonight we play a favorite ice-breaker game called Two Truths and One Lie. This game provides a litmus test to how well the four of us know each other – and some fare better than others. We save the reveals for the end of the episode, so play and long and take a guess!

As always, our conversation 1) Goes off the rails while talking and drinking in Minneapolis, MN, 2) Is sometimes silly, crude and gross, or 3) is all about how much we love Donald Trump.

Episode 38:  Who said we don’t make good on our promises? Today, we picked our first guest from the first 25 reviews on iTunes, and as luck would have it, we pulled a self-proclaimed “Super-Fan,” Alie Farren. Alie share a bit about herself and her love of Bon Jovi in true Two Drinks In fashion…after two drinks in. D. Marie then starts the night by picking from a few topics of Alie’s choosing. Then, we ask Alie to draw from the hat and lead a conversation about “blue laws." The night concludes with Erin discussing the latest “pop” research on breakfast food and millennials. 

As always, our conversation quickly goes off-topic as we test out a variety of “as seen on tv” products while talking and drinking in Minneapolis, MN. 

 

Features Strong Language, Mature Themes, and a Sunday road trip to Wisconsin.
