Every episode of Intoxicating History is a delightful romp through history, landscapes and cultures and is always such fun. I am amazed at your encyclopaedic knowledge of so many various types of alcoholic drinks, delivered with such passion and humor. Every episode is just wonderful, and that includes guests and the sponsors! I only wish that Wylde.market was available in Canada so glad to see that you’re back.
