@biggerbottlepod Now that #Eurovision2023 is coming up, I need find my way to @moorebroswine and replenish my stash of Clos Julien -and/or something that is a little more glitter bomb candy rainbow- for my inevitable rewatch of @EurovisionMovie

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@biggerbottlepod I bet it would have been a lot easier studying for #finals when you were at @TempleUFMA if you had known at the time what to pair with all these seminal films (though I guess that would only work for an upperclassman… legally)

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@biggerbottlepod Alt take: “be the change you want to bourgeoisie in the world”

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@qikipedia @biggerbottlepod I feel like you may have feelings about this. Good luck pairing a movie with industrial alcohol!

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@oldmanshudson @hexexexeh It would just be competitive feasting

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@biggerbottlepod @oldmanshudson @OrdinairePierre Further worth nothing that #lydiatar is fine with both of these reactions

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@oldmanshudson @patrickhwillems Eo chose his own fate.

I went as an I-bond for Halloween this year because a 9.62% interest rate hits the costuming sweet spot: the topical/spooky/sexy trifecta…which I guess I should have posted yesterday since there will be less interest today. @planetmoney

@JacobSHall @biggerbottlepod just did an episode pairing wine with Kiki, Totoro, and Spirited Away, with some similar conclusions. You’d probably enjoy that episode, and probably the other episodes too.

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@biggerbottlepod @thehighsign @DespanaVinosMas Plot twist: the wine actually pairs just as well (if not better) with the book than the movie.

@biggerbottlepod Come for the Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso, stay for Scott citing The Caped Crusade / @ghweldon, and thus qualitatively winning the debate in one fell swoop.

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@biggerbottlepod @WineFolly Don’t know if blends count, but the Chateau Viella Tradition 2018 that @biggerbottlepod paired with @SheDiesTomorrow was dynamite so my vote is whatever region that’s from.

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@fratzcat @biggerbottlepod Oh wow yeah that was a massively missed opportunity

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

The Shin Godzilla/Foradori episode of You’re Gonna Need A Bigger Bottle features @biggerbottlepod talking about @brettgoldstein talking about @edgarwright, which turns out to be the pop-culture Turducken I didn’t know I wanted for Christmas

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@jnordell I had a Riesling from there not too long ago!

[The ModernDilettante @ModDilettante]

@LettieTeague1 Hey, @biggerbottlepod, thanks for the primer on @maisonnoirwines (both wine & tshirt) last episode. I got excited reading this @wsj article and realizing I actually knew exactly what they were talking about! Which I feel like is the digital version of spotting one in the wild. :)

@biggerbottlepod @astorwines Item numbers 26552, 27038, 10980, 43979, 33086, and 37455 if that helps for ease of search. My delivery box of @Astorwines goodies is tempting me already!

@Hafington @biggerbottlepod I suspect you’ll like this more than the sherry
