  • Ep 20: Amelia Singer - World's Worst Wine

    POP! Smell our cork, relish our bouquet and admire our legs because it's a VERY good year for a podcast about the World's Worst Wine. We've got a guest with a very fine nose to help us find it: wine expert, consultant, educator and host of ITV's 'The Wine Show' Amelia Singer. Ben and Barry knock back a few choice bottles of grog including the leavings of monks, a mouldering ancient Roman concoction and some delicacies involving not one, not two, but THREE penises, while Amelia practically challenges a blue nun to a fight. It's a vintage episode - but remember, please enjoy Worst Foot Forward responsibly. Follow us on Twitter: @worstfoot @bazmcstay @benvandervelde @amelias_wine
