Just the Tipple is a comedy, history and drinks podcast hosted by longtime friends Sarah Spooner (@ssspoonah) and Wes Wehking (@30minutesorWes). With the jokes as heavy as the pours, each episode breaks down the makeup and history of classic (and not-so-classic) drinks: from cocktails to straight liquor to stouts to shots. The only rule: if they talk about it, they have to drink it too. Join in the silliness as they explore all things alcoholic. This isn't in-depth history, y'all. This is just the tipple.
Hey remember us? A long time ago we used to be friends. No Veronica Mars/Dandy Warhol fans here? Coolcoolcool. Awkward. MOVING ON.
Good news: the podcast is coming back!
Interesting news: with a new cohost!
Bad news: IDK WWIII might be here?

Episode 5: The Mint Julep
Bust out your seersucker and big hats: it's Derby season! Okay, so calling it a season feels generous, but whatever. Join Wes and Sarah as they drink their way through the history and background of this iconic cocktail. Sit back, grab your freshest mint and tune in while they figure out their Kentucky Derby horse names, what it means to be a plumber by birth, and much, much more.

Episode 4: The Daiquiri
If you think the daiquiri is just a recipe for sunburns, sugar crashes, bad hangovers and Jimmy Buffett sing-a-longs, then you have a lot in common with Wes and Sarah. Join in as they reluctantly dive into all things daiquiri: from the corn syrupy embarrassment found at your fast casual chain restaurants to the surprising and refreshing crispness of a daiquiri #1. They even find their way back through not one but two Roosevelt presidencies! This episode may just change your opinion on a much maligned drink. So slice up some limes, put on your flip flops and tune in.

Episode 3: The Old Fashioned
What happens when two tired co-hosts attempt to tackle their favorite cocktail? Well..this is what happens. Join us as we discuss our very rational fear of volcanoes, talk sibling rivalries, not-so-simple syrups, home bar adventures and trivia about airplanes. I mean we talk about the old fashioned too, I promise. So tune in, learn stuff, but also possibly be entertained. No promises.

Episode 2: Moonshine, Possibly Part I
That's right, we went straight for moonshine. Join Wes and Sarah as they wince their way through spirits of both the illegal and legal varieties, discuss the dickishness of Alexander Hamilton, decide if they'd rather fight bears or a train, and also learn some things in the process.
