In this episode, we sit down with French psychic medium Shirley Barroy, for a conversation that’s as fascinating as it is deeply personal. Shirley shares how she first discovered her psychic abilities, how she learned to trust them, and what it’slike to work as a medium in everyday life. She also gives Alex and Lucy live tarot readings and brings through messages from their loved ones who have passed — moments that are emotional, surprising, and seriously goosebump-inducing.

We explore how intuition works, how she connects with the spiritual world, and the misconceptions people have about psychics and tarot. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or just curious, this episode opens a door into a world most of us rarely get to experience.

So pull up a chair, take a deep breath, and join us for one of our most intriguing conversations yet.

This week, we flip the script — Rynae sits down to interview Alex, and we’re finally getting the full backstory behind our resident Leo, tech queen, and former Sydney beach girl.

We dive into Alex’s pre-kids Sydney life (spoiler: beaches, brunches, and zero responsibilities), the best hidden food gems she still dreams about, and what it was really like moving across the country to start a family in Perth.

She opens up about raising two kids, finding time for herself, and how she manages to stay sane while scrolling Domain for houses she’ll never buy.

We chat travel stories, Alex’s favourite cities and food memories, the time she saw Kobe Bryant (!!), and the three people she’d invite to her dream dinner party.

It’s warm, funny, honest — and the perfect episode for anyone who’s ever changed cities, changed seasons of life, or just loves a good origin story.

Rynae is back from her 22-day European adventure — and she’s officially in her Roman Empire era. Think: Michelin-chef lunches at MotoGP, endless limoncello spritzes, wood-fired saltimbocca, the best pasta in Genoa, Iberian ham fantasies, and shopping… so much shopping…

She almost got kicked out of the Vatican, fell hopelessly in love with Rome, and yes — briefly “lost” her husband and child, which somehow resulted in an Aperol-filled solo afternoon. Honestly? Iconic behaviour.

It’s the ultimate food–wine–fashion recap, delivered Wiser With Wine style: fun, fizzy, and full of holiday envy. 🍷✨

This week, we’re pouring one out for entitlement, first world problems, and the little vices we pretend aren’t that bad.

From people glued to the baggage carousel to Perth’s 4WD drivers with Big D–Energy, we’re calling it all out — including ourselves. We whinge about sparkling water that’s “notsparkly enough,” overflowing wardrobes, and weigh in on Sydney Sweeney’s Good Jeans moment. 

Then we wrap it up with our guilty pleasures — the ones too juicy to list here. You’ll just have to listen to find out. 🍾

Because let’s be honest — we all have our Champagne Problems.

This week, we’re joined by Dr. Anthony Chaffee — medicaldoctor, podcaster, and unapologetic carnivore — for a meaty chat about health, hormones, and why your kale smoothie might secretly hate you.

We cover everything from fertility and PCOS to digestion, fat as fuel, and why meat provides every essential nutrient your body needs. Dr. Chaffee breaks down plant toxins, sugaraddiction, and the surprising science behind why humans were built to thrive on steak—not cereal.

Rynae shares her carnivore challenge results, Alex nerds out on the biology, and Lucy… just wants to know if wine still counts as a plant.

It’s bold, brilliant, and just what the doctor ordered.

Welcome to Wiser With Wine — Halloween Edition, where the only spirits we trust come in a bottle.

This week, we’re diving headfirst into Halloween — from its ancient Celtic roots to today’s billion-dollar costume chaos. We unpack why Aussies suddenly decided it’s a thing, whether “slutty nurse” costumes are still in rotation, and which one of us would die first in a zombie apocalypse.

We also chat the pop culture takeover — from Hocus Pocus to The Exorcist, and how social media made Halloween the Olympics of overdecorating. Plus, we explore the psychology of fear: why do we love being scared, and are horror fans secretly the most resilient?

Grab your broomsticks (and a bottle of red) — it’s our spookiest, sassiest episode yet. 🧙‍♀️🍷

We’re throwing it back to the golden age of TV — when sitcoms ruled, theme songs slapped, and RAGE on the ABC at 2am was the only way to discover new music. From Friends and Full House to Buffy and The Sopranos, we’re reliving theshows that shaped our childhoods and warped our sense of humour. 

Then we shift gears into fashion flashbacks — think Von Dutch, leather pants, surf brands, and platform shoes we never learnt to walk in.

Plus, in this week’s Watch Sip Repeat, we review Department Q — with all the drama, crime, and chaos we love.

Nostalgia served with a side of sass — because nothing ages finer than 90's TV, a leather jacket and good wine. 🍷

In Episode 21, we sit down with Tina Lewis — a friend, a mum of two, and a breast cancer survivor — during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know 1 in 7 Australian womenwill be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime?

We start light — family, daughters, Swedish life and identity — before going deeply into Tina’s cancer journey: the moment she knew, the emotional rollercoaster and the unexpected strength she discovered. We talk about how she held it together when the world didn’t, who showed up for her, and how survivorship reshaped her life, relationships, and priorities.

This is a conversation of courage, tears, laughter, and hope — a reminder that even in darkness, there’s life, love, and resilient light.

In this week's episode, Rynae reviews Alex's famous margaritas while we deep-dive The Hunting Wives.  From Margo’s messy love life to Sophie’s slow-motion breakdown, we unpack every wild twist—governors, guns, and guiltyconsciences included.

We debate it all: feminist icons or wine-drunk chaos? Empowerment or obsession? And, most importantly—would we move to Maple Grove… or run like hell?

Grab a drink (preferably a margarita) and join us as we sip, speculate, and scream at the screen.
