videoStewardship: André Hueston Mack | Cultural Architect of Wine
In this episode of our series, we explore how one of the most recognizable disruptors in the industry went from the French Laundry to founding Maison Noir Wines. Stewardship: André Hueston Mack | Cultural Architect of Wine is a deep dive into bow he uses things like design, hip-hop, and skate culture to make wine relevant for a new generation. From his early days watching Frasier in Texas to running the beverage program at Per Se, André Hueston Mack has always been willing to learn the rules in order to break them. Today, he is redefining what it means to be a "steward" of the industry by shifting the focus from the vineyard to the culture. We discuss: • The "Frasier" Catalyst: How a sitcom gave him the courage to walk into a wine store. • Mouton Noir: Embracing the "Black Sheep" alter ego as a source of power. • Disrupting the Industry: Why wine commercials need to stop walking through vineyards and start showing up at the cookout. • Maison Noir Wines: Building a creative tent for d

La Vieste en Rose: il vino rosa si racconta
C’è un momento, all’inizio dell’estate, in cui alcune città smettono di essere solo luoghi e iniziano a raccontarsi. Il 1° giugno 2026, Vieste lo fa attraverso un colore: il rosa. La settima edizione de La Vieste en Rose torna con un’idea semplice solo in apparenza: mettere il vino rosato al centro non come prodotto stagionale, ma come chiave di lettura di un territorio. Non una festa del vino, ma un dispositivo narrativo. Il rosato come linguaggio mediterraneo C’è un passaggio interessante nelle parole di Giuseppe Carrus: «Il rosato è probabilmente il vino che più di ogni altro racconta il Mediterraneo. Non per moda, ma per natura.» È una posizione che sposta il discorso dal mercato al paesaggio. Luce, sapidità, immediatezza: elementi che prima ancora di stare nel bicchiere stanno fuori, nel Gargano, nel vento, nella rifrazione del mare. In Puglia questa relazione è storica. Vitigni come Negroamaro, Bombino nero e Nero di Troia non producono rosati per adattamento, ma per vocazione. U
podcast· 42:58· S1E157Heal Addiction Through Connection And Communication
Addiction is typically addressed in a harsh and imposing manner, and compassion is often thrown out of the window. Heather Ross , a family recovery coach and podcaster, joins Tim Westbrook, MS to discuss how parents should support children struggling with substance use without confrontation or shame. Delving deep into family recovery, they break down how children struggling with addiction positively respond to connection, communication, and emotional regulation. Heather also explains that tough love often backfires, how nervous system regulation impacts the entire family, and how parents can set boundaries that build connection instead of distance.
video3 Stuck Ferments. One Easter Weekend. No Day Off.
It's Easter weekend. Most people are off. We're not — three tanks of Fiano have stuck in ferment, and we need to bring them back before they spoil. This vlog runs across the long weekend and into the following week. We restart the Fiano with a yeast culture, warm the tanks with heat jackets, and check the Baumé daily to see whether the yeast are actually metabolising the last of the sugar. Jess walks Henry through how we measure free and total SO2 with the aspiration-oxidation method (and why we'd rather not use the ripper method). Then it's out to the vineyards for a quick Nebbiolo clone comparison — 111 vs 230 — and a check on the Sangiovese before forecast rain. This is the stuff that doesn't make the highlight reel. End of vintage is when the problems you didn't have time to notice during the chaos finally surface, and you spend six weeks quietly working through them. If you want to see how a small winery actually deals with stuck ferments, low YAN juice, and the slow grind of f

podcast· 18:34212. Redefine the Problem
What if drinking isn’t actually your problem… it’s your brain’s solution? In this episode, I break down why focusing only on the behaviour keeps you stuck and why “I drink because I’m stressed” doesn’t get you very far. When you redefine what’s really happening underneath the urge, everything shifts. Your brain stops clinging to alcohol because you’re finally solving the real problem. This is the work that leads to ease, control and alcohol becoming irrelevant. DON'T MISS THE FREE TRAINING on Thursday 29 Jan at 1pm Central/2pm Eastern/7pm UK: "What to Do After Dry January (So It Actually Matters)". This is for you if you did Dry January successfully or not or even if you didn't but you kinda-woulda liked to have. Replays will be available to registrants.

Why Smart Liquor Brands Are Doubling Down on Marketing
Must read: The Glass is Half Full Deck , Now Is Not the Time to Go Quiet When things feel uncertain, the first reaction is usually to cut back. Cut spending. Cut inventory. Cut marketing. But if you’re a liquor brand that wants to grow—not just get by—this is not the time to be quiet. Right now, tariffs and trade talk are making things feel shaky in the alcohol world. The government is using these tariffs as a short-term tool. But here’s the truth: tariffs come and go. What sticks around is how people see your brand. What they remember. What they feel. When Everyone Whispers, You Shout During boom periods, everyone’s marketing. Your message gets buried in a sea of seasonal promotions, celebrity endorsements, and glittery campaigns. It’s loud. It's competitive. And the truth is, unless you’re outspending or out-innovating, you're not standing out. But right now? Your competitors are pulling back. They're freezing budgets. Hitting pause. They're whispering—if they're saying anythi

The Cocktail College Podcast: The East India Cocktail
First documented in the late 1800’s, the East India Cocktail combines Cognac, curaçao, fruit syrup, bitters, and Maraschino liqueur. The drink has been tweaked, misattributed, and misunderstood for over a century, with the fruit syrup presenting one of biggest lingering question marks. What should said fruit be? How are we making the syrup? And what is such a bespoke ingredient doing in a 19th-century cocktail in the first place? Here to answer all of those questions is Chicago-based Abe Vucekovich, beverage director at Meadowlark Hospitality.

The Parrot Room
This post is brought to you in partnership with Spoonflower.com . What do you do when you inherit a 32-year-old Blue & Gold Macaw from your childhood best friend’s (still my best friend) mom? Well, obvi you design a room around him. Meet Max. He came to live with us just after we moved into this house in 2022. It was decided that the best place for his GINORMOUS blue cage was the dining room—which was and still is being used as my office space (until we can build out my future chicken studio space). Putting a macaw in my office was definitely…a choice. There is nothing more professional on a work call or zoom meeting than a macaw screaming or singing opera in the background. It’s fine! It’s fine. We hadn’t gotten started yet on any home remodeling projects when Max arrived, and so the office was still very much a blank white slate (if you’ll recall, our 1940’s Monterey Revival style home had unfortunately fallen into the hands of some pretty unskilled flippers who tried to turn

Workshop: Joe and Charlie Big Book in one file - 12 hours
The Joe and Charlie Big Book workshops have been popular for many years and it was one of my first posts. I went looking for the latest version I could find and came across this one from 2013, it has great audio quality and I have combined all the files into one 12 hour workshop. A little background on the workshops: In 1977, some AA members met in a Tulsa, Oklahoma hotel room for a discussion on The Big Book. One member asked Joe and Charlie to come to his home group to present a program on The Big Book. A taping of that presentation was made and called "The Big Book Study". Through the circulation of these audio tapes throughout the Fellowship, Joe and Charlie received invitations to present the Study at AA conventions, roundups and special events. At the AA International Convention in New Orleans in 1980, Wesley P, organized a lunch for 1,500 AA members from all over the world and gave away 100 Joe & Charlie tape sets as door prizes. Invitations exploded, and within a couple of year
