This week, Shift Drink alum Boby Pradichith continues to do the heavy lifting by bringing us chef, and mentor, Ruben Garcia. Freshly funemployed, we look back at Ruben’s 16-year legacy with Think Food Group and how that translates into future plans (think mezcal), “fighting nature,” and the cycle of culinary maturation and creativity. Ruben goes all George Clooney, Boby goes all Benjamin Button, Eddie goes all Julia Roberts, and Mathew tries to go all Daniel Day Lewis. Powered and distributed by Simplecast.

This week, the kimchi jar lid is popped on Korean food and the American experience with comic illustrator Robin Ha — just ahead of the release of her new graphic novel, Almost American Girl — and guest host Peter Chang of No Kings Collective. We geonbae (cheers) over some unexpected mezcal as we parse out the meaning of Korean son-mat (hand-taste), the commonalities between Mexican and Korean cooking, and the disparities between the Korean immigrant and Korean-American experiences. Robin is OK with Kraft cheese, but not K-dramas, Peter exalts the sacred Shin ramen, and Eddie chastises on drinking etiquette. Powered and distributed by Simplecast.

This week, arbiters of Charm City cool — Lane Harlan and returning guest Carlos Raba of Clavel, sit down with Mathew and poeticize everything from breakfast wine and the “hand of the maker,” to fishing for real estate on craigslist and even… well, Malort.

This week we light a fire on the new season of Shift Drink to illuminate the impending U.S. tariffs on French wines, possibly going into effect later this month. Representing a cadre of importers and producers set to testify on Capitol Hill is natural wine figurehead and importer Zev Rovine, who explains the ins and outs of the 100 percent tariff, the destructive impacts it will have across the domestic wine industry (but particularly natural wine), and his beginnings as an importer. Guest co-pilot Amanda Carpenter expounds on her penchant for the tiny, Zev shrinks away from the sticky, Mathew escapes to the beachy, and Eddie stays mired in the dreary.

This week, we round out the season (and year!) with a clarion of D.C.’s wine community — Felicia Colbert — Wine Director at A Rake’s Progress. We discuss navigating to the peak of the wine world while “mastering” one’s destiny, the added baggage of intersectionality in hospitality, and wine as a field guide to sociology. Alexya dons her graduation cap, Eddie squeezes into his cake fairy tights, and Mathew hulks out of his apron. But we all agree — Parents just don’t understand.

This week, Clementine Thomas joins the studio to boldly fork where no book has gone before. We’re talking Bold Fork Books, a culinary bookstore pop-up in D.C.’s Pear Plum Cafe. Clem covers some cookbook chronology from personal favorites to neo-classic standards, purrrloins her cat’s name, and sets a local literary table for chefs and home-cooks to commune over. Mathew and Eddie bond in their aversions to the continental apple, the former biologically, the latter existentially.

This week, Dave Coleman of Three Stars Brewing joins our post-Thanksgiving breakdown because that’s how he green-bean-casser-ROLLS.

Mathew mucks horse stables on the cheap and Eddie raises a glass to a favorite shirtless barman.

This week, tune out the family drama and turn up the awkward with three friends, live mics, and a healthy dose of sherry for some stimulating, turkey-stuffing background noise. We welcome back Adam Bernbach of the upcoming Oyster Oyster, who’s keeping it lazy with an upcoming Mega-Mandy-Death-Moore Omakase, betrays his cranberry roots, and opens up on “closing the loop” and sustainability in restaurants. Eddie supersizes his Starbucks and Mathew says “hell yes,” to a flaming hot cheeto and tonic throwdown.
