Two Drinks In Again
Dave and Jeff have (at least) two drinks and talk about the goings-on in the Knoxville metro area. Sports, music, restaurants, movies, and really anything is up for discussion. Join us for some information and a lot of laughs.
Two Drinks In Again
Episode 40 - We haven't killed each other in 40 episodes, and that's something worth celebrating.
The bromance is over, Knoxville is thriving, and restaurant bills are giving us heart attacks. Welcome to Episode 40 of Two Drinks and Again, where we're somehow still talking to each other after all this time!
We kick things off with a new format structured like an old-school newspaper (remember those?), diving into national, local, sports, and entertainment topics. The Trump-Elon breakup dominates our national discussion, as we analyze what happens when two massive egos collide and what it means for the political landscape. Why is Trump being so uncharacteristically quiet? Could Elon actually become a political force despite not being a citizen? Meanwhile, the Democratic Party faces its own generational struggles, pushing out younger voices just when they need them most.
Locally, we marvel at Knoxville's transformation, particularly the stunning new Smokies baseball stadium that's revitalizing once-avoided areas of the city. We're genuinely impressed by the thoughtful development happening throughout East Tennessee, even as we puzzle over how anyone affords those $3,000/month downtown apartments. Where are all these people working?!
On the entertainment front, we give enthusiastic reviews of Marvel's Thunderbolts (David Harbour continues to be a national treasure) and share our excitement for the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. And yes, we have strong feelings about Tom Cruise still doing his own ridiculous stunts at whatever age he is now.
Through it all, we wrestle with aging, parenting adult children who still somehow disrupt vacation plans, and the bittersweet reality of planning for retirement. Whether you're nodding along or shouting counterpoints at your device, we invite you to join our conversation about navigating life's absurdities with humor and perhaps just a touch of makers mark or glenlivet to ease the journey.
Give us a five-star review if you enjoy our ramblings – after all, we're just trying to be decent to each other in increasingly indecent times.
