Pose Season 1: One Perfect Nugget of 1988

Published: Oct. 16, 2019, 8 a.m.

In this episode, we discuss wines that will get you tipsy with just a few sips and discover very quickly that our wine tastes are aligned with our personal brands.  We discuss the stuff we like, which includes heritage-inspired vacations and Normani.  We vent about annoying, racist people on Twitter popping up in your social media mentions like the worst Kool-Aid man ever, which leads to a discussion of Twitter etiquette and geography.  Fun fact - Africa is a continent!  

After shooting the crap a bit, we get into the groundbreaking first season of FX’s Pose created by Steven Canals, Ryan Murphy, and Brad Falchuk.  We take a deep dive into our initial impressions of the show when it was announced and then move on to our discussion of why the first season of Pose is amazing, must see television.  We rave over what we like and also manage to work in a drag of Mario Lopez.  

Friendly reminder, we drink, we know things, and we often use adult language in our discussions.
