This week we’re sipping Barolo and tackling life’s most important questions—like what actually makes the perfect breakfast burrito. Crispy potatoes? Bacon vs. sausage? Salsa inside or on the side? Things get heated fast.
Then Megan reveals she put Eddie down as a referral for a job interview, which leads us into a full-on rehearsal of the potential phone call. Let’s just say… HR might have concerns.
Wine, burritos, and fake professionalism—classic Kill The Bottle chaos. 🍷🌯

This week we’re getting a little more real than usual. Megan steps back into theater and talks about what it means to face your fears head-on, while we sip on a Napa Cabernet from Coombsville and reflect on getting older—and why your circle starts to get smaller.
Eddie has a message for the people who only call when they need something (you know who you are), and we dive into a spicy conversation about the younger generation—work ethic, quitting too soon, and what’s changed.
It’s wine, growth, tough love, and a few laughs along the way. 🍷

This week we’re cracking open some premium ready-to-drink cocktails—Certo—and diving into whether RTDs are finally leveling up. From there, we get nostalgic (and a little existential) talking about aging and watching our childhood celebrity crushes grow up right along with us.
We also break down the Noma controversy and what it says about the future of restaurants, labor, and the fine dining world. And of course, Eddie shares a throwback story about a celebrity flirting with him at a supermarket—because why not?
Cocktails, culture, and chaos—just how we like it. 🍹

This week we’re sipping Gigondas and catching up on everything. Eddie shares an update on his dad, plus a wild (and frustrating) story about a terrible Miami EMT experience. We talk about the buzz around Noma in LA, and of course—some things never change—Eddie is still roasting Megan about her ex’s missing tooth. It’s equal parts real talk, food chatter, and classic Kill The Bottle chaos. 🍷

It’s the season opener and we’re finally back. After some real-life curveballs, Eddie and Megan return to the mic to kick off the new year. Eddie’s under the weather but still rocking a new retro Marlins jacket, Megan admits she’s basically been hiding in her house, and somehow we’re both still heading to the 101 Best of LA event later that night.
We talk about the surprising closure of Birdie G’s, the TV shows we’ve been watching, and why teenager characters on TV are almost always the worst people in the room. It’s a little catch-up, a little chaos, and the start of a brand new season.

On our Season Finale we’re sipping and spilling on everything from pop culture to fast food experiments. We kick things off with Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl and what that means for halftime shows, then dive into the strangest and most famous death row final meals of all time. From there it’s all about Taco Bell’s new “Bellristas” and their espresso bar—will it actually work?—and we wrap it up with a serious debate on what makes the perfect chicken wing. It’s spicy, weird, and hilarious.

This week, Megan and Eddie are sipping on some seriously questionable bourbon and diving into the weird and wonderful world of food festivals. Eddie quizzes Megan on which festivals are real and which ones he completely made up—spoiler: some of the fake ones sound totally legit. They also break down the Bad Bunny live stream, the new Eminem documentary, and the Charlie Sheen documentary, with plenty of laughs (and a little bourbon-fueled chaos) along the way.

Eddie pitches him a new bit—legal parody videos for a fake law firm called “Leroy and Leroy”—and somehow it actually makes sense.

This week we’re diving headfirst into fall—whether it’s too soon or not. We break down the history (and madness) of pumpkin spice, debate when fall really starts, and reveal if we ever order pumpkin spice anything. Then it’s on to pop culture as we talk Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding rumors, the cocktails we’d serve at their reception, and the future gender reveal Eddie is hoping for. Plus, Halloween Horror Nights is officially here, which means overpriced cocktails, haunted houses, and pet costume chaos—because Indie as a vampire pug is a thing.

We sip a Roussanne from Paso Robles (but don’t expect Eddie to name it—he’s holding a grudge because the winery stole his Cuban dinner idea). We dive into Mike’s creative process, the wild world of animation, and whether chickens deserve their own action movies. Wine, shade, and comedy collide in this one.
