Sip Spill Solve
Two girlfriends. One bottle. And zero qualifications.
Welcome to Sip, Spill & Solve—the true crime podcast that’s less blood-spatter, more belly laughs. Join two 60-ish besties, Kiki & Jeannie, as we sip a new wine each week, spill a little girlfriend gossip, and attempt to solve some of the world’s weirdest, dumbest, and most unbelievable crimes.
We’re not detectives. We’re not reporters. We’re just two wine-loving women with a microphone and a lot of opinions.
Think Dateline... if the hosts had hot flashes, hilarious side tangents, and an extra glass of Pinot.
So pour yourself a glass and join us every week for laughs, mystery, and very questionable theories.
