Wine By The Case Podcast

📢 Episode 21 Drop 🎙️⚖️

No wine in hand this week, but a heavy legal conversation on the table. Alexis and Chris break down the Menendez brothers’ parole hearings, why parole was denied after nearly four decades in prison, and what parole boards actually look at, beyond the headlines, trauma history, and public outrage.

In this episode, we cover:

⚖️ The Menendez case refresher: convictions, life without parole, and California’s youth sentencing reforms

📅 Why the brothers were eligible now: resentencing to 50 years to life

🧑‍⚖️ How parole hearings really work: remorse, rehabilitation, and public safety—not retrying the case

📂 Conduct in prison: libraries, gardens, trauma groups, and decades of largely clean records

📱 The cellphone issue: why it mattered, how prisons profit from phone calls, and selective enforcement

💬 Your assignment: Tell us what wine should pair with a parole hearing.

(And yes—if you own a wine shop or winery and want to send a bottle, we’re listening 👀🍷)

📢 Episode 20 Drop 🎙️🍹🌴

Alexis and Chris take Wine by the Case on the road, broadcasting from The Dilly Club at Atlantis, Bahamas, and dive into one of the most viral workplace scandals of the year: the Coldplay concert video exposing an alleged relationship between a CEO and his Chief Human Resources Officer.

In this episode, we cover:

🏟️ The Coldplay box incident: why “off-duty” doesn’t mean off-the-clock

🏢 Corporate box ≠ private moment: work events, witnesses, and company-paid perks

🧠 Power imbalance & coercion risk: how consent gets complicated fast

🧾 Why the CHRO role is uniquely untenable here

🎲 Long-game prediction: does majority ownership mean a comeback?

📢 Episode 19 Drop 🎙️🍷

Chris surprises Alexis with a rapid-fire game of “cringe or not cringe,” featuring lawyer hypotheticals, pop culture debates, and a few high-end bar choices that come with more opinions than vermouth. The wine of the day is a smooth Merlot with a name that fits the vibe a little too well.

In this episode, we cover:

📞 Retro lawyer energy: “please bring wine” fashion and the 1930s wine case aesthetic

😬 Cringe or not cringe: courtroom reenactments, lawsuits over mixtapes, and zodiac signs in pleadings

🍸 Bar orders on the stand: Cosmos, white Russians, French 75s, and what counts as “vintage” now

📺 Pop culture rulings: Sex and the City reboot, Real Housewives, and the Jennifer Tilly appreciation segment

👗 Kaftan comeback: caviar + caftans as a lifestyle choice, not a phase

✨ Bottle service logic: sparklers on an inexpensive bottle and why fun wins

📢 Episode 18 Drop 🎙️🍷

Chris and Alexis tie together fraud, branding, and the high-end wine world where the label can be worth more than what’s actually in the bottle. They unpack an alleged counterfeiting scheme involving luxury bottles, expert-level fake materials, and how it all got exposed when someone finally opened one.

In this episode, we cover:

🍷 Wine fraud 101: what “single estate” signals and why provenance matters

🧾 Counterfeit labels: paper, glue, and details built to fool experts

💰 Auction house blind spots: how collectors get duped when bottles sit in cellars for years 🔍 How it was discovered: a buyer opens a bottle and realizes something is seriously off

🌍 International prosecution: alleged charges spanning France and Italy, with U.S. angles discussed

🕵️ Organized scheme vibes: why this starts looking bigger than just “fake wine”

📢 Episode 17 Drop 🎙️🍷

A federal judge, a Miami condo, and an HOA dispute that escalated into a defamation lawsuit. Chris and Alexis walk through why defamation is “a rich man’s game,” how condo association drama turns into real litigation, and why being a public figure changes the legal standard.

In this episode, we cover:

🏛️ Federal judge HOA dispute: a Miami condo, renovation overruns, and board backlash

📩 Emails & accusations: “disgruntled condo owner,” security concerns, and how it spiraled

⚖️ Defamation basics: why these cases are expensive and rarely simple

🌟 Public figure standard: why judges face a higher bar in defamation claims

🏗️ Condo renovation chaos: cost overruns, contractor choices, and resident frustration

📢 Episode 16 Drop 🎙️🍷

Today’s episode gets into a topic that is equal parts constitutional and uncomfortable at family dinner: internet porn regulations. Chris and Alexis break down the Supreme Court decision, the Texas pipeline of big impact cases, and why data privacy is the real plot twist.

In this episode, we cover:

⚖️ Supreme Court decision: what the ruling allows states to do

🪪 Age verification rules: ID uploads vs check-the-box, and why that matters

🔒 Privacy and data security: breaches, tracking concerns, and who holds the info

Case

📢 Episode 15 Drop 🎙️🍷

Chris and Alexis are back in a new setup, still evolving the decor, and somehow pairing legal chaos with a bottle literally called Delinquent. This episode hits two very different money stories with one shared theme: consequences, and how wildly they can vary.

In this episode, we cover:

🎰 Sin City spending spree: allegations of massive gambling losses, comped perks, and investor money

🧾 Federal plea & sentencing: how a plea deal can shape the outcome

🏊 Pool contractor fraud case: deposits taken, holes dug, projects left unfinished

⚖️ Sentencing comparisons: why similar conduct can lead to very different time

🍷 Vegan wine talk: twist-off corks, low sulfite labels, and brutally honest tasting notes

🍷 Wine We’re Pouring:

• Delinquent (Australia, vegan, low sulfite) https://www.wine-searcher.com/find/delinquent+wine+australia

👩‍⚖️ Hosts:

• Chris Sensenig — employment attorney with 28+ years of experience handling employment law, EEOC matters, compliance, and the occasional “please don’t make the news” situation.

This week on Wine by the Case, we’re sipping on “Roxanne the Razor” Delinquente Rosé — a bold, rebellious wine that pairs perfectly with our even bolder story…

Then she heads to The Wynn in Las Vegas — and decides their money is hers to burn.

We break down the case, the red flags, and what happens when legal power and greed collide.

Tune in for the wine, stay for the wild white-collar crime.
