Episode 17: Happy Hour is our time to experiment, and this time, we rip the lid off and go full political. Dana talks about the now infamous face of Chris Crispy…er…Chris Krispy Kreme…er...Chris Christie (yeah, that’s it) and the obvious agony of selling your soul for a job.  D. Marie and Erin find that caucusing is as smooth running as a pair of New Balance sneakers. Of course, we get a little more passionate for this happy hour as we have a cocktail or two to set the mood.

Episode 16: For this episode, James shares his memory of how his brothers threatened a “beat-down” on the neighborhood bully then segues into his first “review” of a theatrical performance. Erin shocks us with a story about the wrong time to go “commando” and Dana discovers the depths of dangerous pool antics.

Next, Dana reintroduces Oprah, but this time we talk about how much we miss/not miss her. Finally, D. Marie leads us on what movies we could watch over and over again. You will lose your head over D. Marie’s choice. As always, our conversation goes off-topic as we binge drink in Minneapolis, MN.

Episode 15: Today, we decide exactly why we’re friends: BOOZE. Erin quickly usurps the convo in a “Girls-Gone-Wild” sorta way to discuss the ins and outs of being set up while at work. Yep, a friend/not-friend brings her a potential suitor to the restaurant…for her to wait on him. In the process, D. Marie gets a little pissed off, James gets a little gay (over figgy pudding), and Dana gets a little misogynistic.  

James then takes us on a brief-ish trip down memory lane, talking a bit about Strawberry Shortcake, a bit about Weebles, and a bit about Margaret, his pet chicken. Sadly, you can probably guess Margaret’s end. In a word, it was grisly. Dana rounds out this evening’s discussion with a look at his favorite local brews (though he isn’t always sure what constitutes “local”). As always, our conversation goes off-topic a time or two as we drink and drink and drink in Minneapolis, MN.

Episode 14: It’s Happy Hour again and for this special episode, we dive into the vaults to bring you stories in which our bodies have betrayed us. We journey with D. Marie to France, where she is overjoyed with the beauty of the Eiffel Tower. We are then off to Wisconsin with Dana who tests out hiccup remedies and their tumultuous results. We end at a frat party with Erin in Massachusetts where we learn about her MacGyver abilities in seeking revenge. 

Along the way, we learn some interesting new phrases as our conversation goes off-topic a time or two as we drink and laugh in Minneapolis, MN. along the way.

Episode 13: Are you a friend-not-friend? Well, that’s what D. Marie and Dana discuss on today’s episode. Find out whether or not either of them is actually the unkindest person in the room. Then, we click the lights on and off three times, count to 10, and touch our finger to our nose before entering the door as Erin leads the discussion on her favorite OCD behaviors. Finally, we wrap up the night’s conversation with a discussion on what James is putting in his Cream-of-Wheat. It’s not butter!!! As always, our conversation veers off-topic after a cocktail or two in the heart of Minneapolis, MN.    Features Strong Language, Mature Themes, and things you shouldn’t eat for breakfast.

Episode 12: In light of someone suspending his bid for the White House, we thought we’d start off this episode with a brief discussion about the fiasco that was Jeb Bush’s campaign. Sorry, Jeb. We know you’ve taken quite a few hits from the press, but we’re just a podcast…so it doesn’t count, right?

From there, Dana dives into what makes him whimper in his sleep. It’s not what you think. Of course, James and Erin follow suit — not with the whimpering, but some of their craziest dreams. Then, D. Marie kicks off a spirited conversation on dating a man-child (or dating man-children, to be exact) and suggests that maybe all men are looking for someone to take care of them. Should James and Dana take offense?

For our Last Call, Erin pulls the topic of Ghosts, but James quickly hijacks the conversation to tell a few chilling tales of his own. Hmm, we’re starting to think he’s a conduit of sorts. 

As always, our conversation veers off-topic a time or two as we belly up to that proverbial bar in Minneapolis, MN.

Episode 11: It’s Happy Hour again, and we decide to dip our toes (after a drink or two, of course) into the Twitterverse for the topic of this very special episode of Two Drinks In. If you hadn’t guessed by the title, it’s all about best and worst birthdays. So, what y’all can expect to her is D. Marie reliving her “Molly Ringwald” moment, Dana getting sappy (again), James bemoaning the hardships of a December birthday, and Erin setting the record straight through song. Yes, song. That girl knows nothing about copyright laws.

By now, it should come as no surprise that we go off topic (with the help of buckets on top of buckets of booze) again and again. Uh-huh, we certainly know how to do Minnesota Nice right…over ice.

Episode 10: Grab a drink (or #beertail) and listen to D. Marie, Dana, Erin, and James take a sometimes sentimental journey through time and space as they share where they’d travel if price wasn’t an option. Nope, it’s not #Dollywood…though the four have now decided a road trip is definitely in order. Then, the group delves into the sometimes shallow characteristics that draws their lust-filled attention from across the bar. We’re talking about THE perfect type. From there, they round out the conversation with a brief discussion on their guiltiest of pleasures. As always, the cast conversation regularly goes off-topic all while drinking and drinking and drinking in Minnesota.

Episode 9: It’s a Valentine’s Day extravaganza for Two Drinks In, and D. Marie wastes no time getting a discussion going about Bumble, the new dating app filled with hot doctors, hot lawyers and variety of other hot Minnesotans…here’s hoping they’re not douchebags. Then, the conversation quickly turns to the topic of family, namely whether D. Marie, Dana, Erin, and James actually love their kin (spoiler: they do, for the most part). And to round out the night, the group decides to weigh in on Minnesota Drivers and whether this cautious breed actually understands the concept of a zipper merge. As always, the cast conversation regularly goes off-topic all while tipping back a cocktail or two (more like five, really) in Minnesota.

Episode 8: For this special Happy Hour episode, D. Marie, Dana, and James hit the street (or a party, really) for their first “field reporting” effort to uncover what people resolve to change about themselves in the New Year. Then, Erin and the rest of the Two Drinks In crew comment on their findings after a cocktail or two…or, in Dana’s case, a #beertail. “Porn” yourself a glass of champagne (you’ll get the joke shortly), and enjoy these resolutions for a happy and healthy new year!
