Sip N' Spin

Welcome to another episode! This week the drink was 'red wine' and the topic was 'true crime' A duo that we get pretty regularly around here. Skylar wasn't feeling up to drinking this week though, so it's just Brittany sipping on some 19 Crimes wine.  Brittany talks about the Walburga Oesterreich case. Walburga was a German-born American housewife. She was married to a wealthy textile manufac...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are talking about a movie while drinking something we don't like! Skylar got distracted on her way to recording and actually forgot to get her drink, but it all worked out because it turns out she didn't like what Brittany was having either. Therefore, the pair are begrudgingly sipping on some Root-beer and Vodkas. It's quite gross, do not recommend. While...

Welcome to another episode! Our 50th episode to be exact!! (We meant to do something a little more for this one, but uh, we kinda forgot..) This week we are getting to cover the topic: mystical! This is a topic we greatly enjoy and this recording was a lot of fun. Word stumbles and all. Brittany was also in charge of the drinks this week and so she created a cocktail perfect for the evening. The '...

Welcome to another episode! This week we get to go back in time because we are talking bout history. The drink this time was white wine again, and so we are once again drinking some Bota Box, but this time the Breeze variety.  Brittany still has a few issues leftover from Covid. Mainly: some coughing and getting winded, so excuse that please. She does however, have a longer section than what'...

Welcome to another episode! This weeks topic could not have been more perfect since this is the first week of October and we get to talk about paranormal ! We have not gotten to cover this topic since our very FIRST episode, and it's such a fitting way to start off spooktober. Brittany is recently recovered (mostly) from covid. But since research and everything for this week did coincide with her...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are discussing the movie 90's classic The Mummy while drinking some drinks we like. Brittany is enjoying another homemade cocktail this week. This one goes by the name "seafoam" and is made up of rum, blue curico, banana liqueur, margarita mix, more rum, grenadine, and some Swedish fish gummies. (It's also supposed to have sprite, but that was not the case...

Welcome to another episode! This week Brittany was in charge of the drinks and she is freshly back from vacation. So, she decided to make a tropical themed cocktail. This is a drink that combines pineapple juice, coconut rum, banana liqueur, and creme of coconut. We sip on these while talking all about our topic of internet .  Brittany starts off with a little sleuthing to uncover the origin...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are back on our couch classroom to hopefully teach you a few things. So get your notebooks ready! We are going to be doing this while drinking some drinks we don't like. Skylar fermented some gin with some blackberries for many, many months and finally decided to combine said gin with some lemonade for this week (but she really didn't drink much). Brittany...

Welcome to another episode! This week we get to enjoy a drink we like, while discussing a topic we don't enjoy as much. Brittany is sipping on a whiskey-spiked iced tea and Skylar is enjoying some Italian wine. There are also whiskey shots on the table, because Brittany was feeling some type of way.  Brittany's "case" does not technically fall under the 'true crime' umbrella, but when she ori...

Welcome to another episode! This week we got to choose literally whatever we wanted to talk about because we got the topic ' random ' and boy, did we deliver on the random aspect. We also got to drink something we like, so we really got to do just whatever we wanted to do this week, which is a very dangerous thing. Brittany is drinking a 'gin-jam' cocktail which is just: gin, frog jam, bitters, &a...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are discussing the movie Booksmart while we drink red wine. Booksmart is a coming-of-age film that follows two best friends who focused on academics in high school, only to realize on the eve of graduation that they should have worked less and played more. Therefore, they try to cram four years of missed fun into one night. Booksmart came out in 2019 and wa...

Hello loves, and welcome back for another episode! ( Big ole notice : once again, this episode was actually recorded back in February of this year(2022) and is just now being released. ALSO this episode does have some audio issues that we apologize for. Hopefully going forward with new recordings, this is fixed.) Ahhh, TV.

Helloooo beautiful people! We are officially back for the year 2022  Welcome to our first episode of the season! ( Big ole notice : we actually recorded the first three episodes of this year starting in January, but for many different reasons we are just now releasing them.

Welcome to another episode, and also, welcome to our last episode of the year! (2021) This week we are discussing the topic: TV. We are actually going to be talking about 1 specific show this week and we are doing this while we sip on some glasses of red wine. We are drinking some 7moons red wine, which is just a blend of different grape varietals. The show we are going to be discussing is: Midnig...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are getting to cover the topic: mystical! It's probably safe to assume that this is one of our favorite topics to cover so we were especially stoked for this week! However, our drink this week was 'a drink we don't like' so that put a slight damper on the recording session. We are both enjoying(?) a whiskey coke. Skylar because she hates whiskey and Brittan...

Welcome to another episode!  This week's theme is Psychology! Skylar is of course, super pumped for this so get ready for 11 pages from her! This week the drink choice was 'Brittany's Choice' so she went with a tart strawberry lemonade cider.  Brittany touches some on color psychology. This is a very shallow dive, and focuses more on international connotations with some base colors. She...

Welcome to another episode! We are back in the kitchen once again! This time we are cooking a dish from the Elder Scrolls cookbook: Baked White River Salmon, and we are having that with some yellow rice. Skylar has never had salmon before and doesn't typically like rice, so this whole meal was a gamble. We do get to sip on drinks we like though! Skylar is enjoying some white wine, and Brittany has...

Welcome to another episode! This week is a little different, because this is Part 2 of our newest literature episode. We are still discussing 'The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' and Skylar was still in charge of the drinks. This time, we are enjoying some peach-grapefruit Moscow mules. If you need to go back to last week and listen to part 1 we urge you do to that before continuing with this week'...

Happy Halloween Week! Trick or Treat? It is Halloween week, and if you chose "trick" you are in luck, because while we are talking about literature this week, the title of this episode is very misleading! Skylar was in charge of the drinks this week and due to procrastination she went with the quick fix of some Cayman Jack premixed margaritas. (She will say they taste like sprite, and she is only...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are talking about some true crime! While this isn't a pleasant topic, we do get to drink something we like. Skylar sips on some Seagram's Peach Bellini's while Brittany is sipping on a gin & tonic.  This week, Skylar is going first to discuss a very rough case. Trigger Warning's for her case: murder, rape, torture, & incest. Please note that th...

Welcome to another episode! This week we are talking about a very special book, because our topic is literature! Brittany was in charge of the drinks this week and, feeling inspired from the book, she came up with a special cocktail just for the occasion. They are enjoying: A Peach-Berry Whiskey-Sangria. To make this: add 2 cups of mixed berries, a whole bottle of peach wine, & 1/4-1/2 cup whi...

Hopefully everyone has done some stretches before listening to this episode becau...

Welcome to another episode! We are back in the kitchen once again! This week we also have a special guest: Skylar's younger brother, Bret, who is currently home on leave. He decided to spend an evening yelling with us in the kitchen. Skylar picked the meal so we are enjoying a Spinach-Artichoke Chicken Pasta Casserole and homemade breadsticks. Since Skylar cheated last time, we are all having to d...
