Saddle up for a wild ride through the vineyards and into the social justice system with us, Ian King, the Wine Wonder Boy, and Jazzy. We're not just sipping on a sumptuous Rhone white blend from Upside Down Wines; we're also uncorking the quirky story behind our 'Bung Pod' moniker and diving headfirst into a gripping tale of a Fast and Furious-worthy wine heist that's as audacious as it is true. You'll swirl, sniff, and savor the complexities of this episode just as we do with our featured wine, whose rich flavors whisper of the secrets of malolactic fermentation.

Then, as the bouquet settles, we take you through the lush rows of Tablas Creek's biodynamic vineyards, exploring the sustainable revolution that's reshaping the wine industry. But our journey doesn't end there. We pivot to a topic that's as robust as a well-aged Cabernet: Norway's humane correctional system. By contrasting it with the American prison model, we uncork a discussion on societal impacts and the resilience of the human spirit, all while sharing a remarkable anecdote about an inmate whose dedication to the mental game of golf tees up a conversation on transformation and hope. Join us for an episode that's as layered and complex as the subjects we're toasting to.
