Episode description as stored

Laurie Forster has performed her wine comedy show Something to Whine About in some of the most iconic entertainment venues in the country — and in Part 3, she walks through exactly what that experience looks like from the stage. Audiences at Carolines on Broadway, Caesars Atlantic City, and the HBO Women in Comedy Festival have all discovered the same thing: wine education is infinitely more effective when everyone is laughing and has four glasses in front of them. The show is built to disarm. Guests get drinking names and chances to come onstage, competing in games like the Cork Dork Challenge and a blind smell test that has an impressive track record of humbling even the most confident wine snobs in the room. Laurie's secret weapon for dealing with hecklers? She built them into the show before they could cause trouble. Off stage, Laurie hosts The Sipping Point, a weekly podcast featuring chefs, winemakers, and culinary storytellers, and she leads wine tours to destinations like Bordeaux and Tuscany. You can find her events, tours, podcast, and newsletter at thewinecoach.com. @thebestwinepod Discover More from The Best 5 Minute Podcast Network: Wine Podcast Music Podcast Travel Podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
