Fancy, via South Philadelphia (Bonus!)
Hey look, it\u2019s a bonus-ode! We sent our demo to a bunch of friends, and they sent us back, like, a zillion questions. So we thought we\u2019d answer a few on air\u2014and then ask you a question of our own.\n\n> Does it alienate potential clients if I\u2019m tweeting a lot about sexual harassment in tech? Do I care? \n> \u2014A listener from San Francisco\n\nAs always, we\u2019ve got the show notes\u2014and a full transcript\u2014right here.\n\n## Show notes\n\nHow many bottles of wine does it take to answer your mail? Technically none, but it\u2019s more fun this way.\n\nIn this week\u2019s mailbag, we talk about:\n\n- The, uh, pleasures of [Pennsylvania\u2019s state-run wine and spirits stores](https://www.finewineandgoodspirits.com/).\n- What it means to do \u201cbig\u201d things, and the reasons women often minimize their accomplishments (it ain\u2019t all imposter syndrome, folks).\n- Whether this podcast is business or pleasure (it\u2019s BOTH, dammit).\n- Why the [Instant Pot](http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2017/11/the_instant_pot_is_now_an_entire_economy_and_religion.html) is \u201call game no shame.\u201d\n- What growth and career progression look like when your job\u2019s not a standard 9-to-5.\n- The personal, the professional, and the ramifications of tweeting with reckless abandon.\n- Karen McGrane\u2019s \u201c[Give a crap. Don\u2019t give a fuck](http://alistapart.com/column/give-a-crap-dont-give-a-fuck).\u201d inspired Sara to get more vulnerable in her writing.\n- The fact that Katel\u2019s a CEO. Just sayin\u2019.\n\nThanks as always to our friends [The Diaphone](https://thediaphone.bandcamp.com/) for the use of our theme song, Maths, off the album of the same name!\n\n## Transcript\n\n**JENN LUKAS:** Welcome to No, You Go, the show about being ambitious\u2014and sticking together. I\u2019m Jenn Lukas.\n\n**KATEL LED\xdb:** I\u2019m Katel LeD\xfb.\n\n**SARA WACHTER-BOETTCHER:** And I\u2019m Sara Wachter-Boettcher.\n\n**SWB:** Hey everyone, today on No, You Go, we\u2019re doing something a little bit different. You see, we sent out our demo episode to a whole bunch of friends recently, and we started getting a lot of questions back from them. So what we thought we would do is go through that mailbag and answer some questions. And we thought, even better, let\u2019s open up some wine, and answer those questions with the mics on.\n\nSo, why don\u2019t we go ahead and see what our listeners have to say.\n\n[Intro music]\n\n**SWB:** So, Jenn, what are we drinking tonight?\n\n**JL:** I have good news for you, this wine is already started. We are drinking tonight a lovely C\xf4tes du Rh\xf4ne.\n\n**ALL:** Mmmmmmmmm\n\n**KL:** That\u2019s fancy, for fancy ladies.\n\n**JL:** It\u2019s from the wine cellar of 11th Street Liquors.\n\n[Laughter]\n\n**SWB:** I was gonna say, it\u2019s fancy, via South Philadelphia.\n\n**KL:** That\u2019s right.\n\n**JL:** The South Philadelphia State Store. Thank you state store.\n\n**KL:** We don\u2019t mess around.\n\n**SWB:** Okay, so let\u2019s see what\u2019s in the mailbag!\u201d\n\n**KL:** So, a listener from Vancouver, Canada asks, \u201cHow did you know you wanted to do big things?\u201d\n\n**SWB:** That\u2019s such a tough question. I spent my childhood and early adulthood feeling really ambitious, but kind of not knowing where to put that ambition\u2014like not being clear what I was working toward. And it was not until probably my late twenties that I had some idea of what I might be working toward in my career. I feel like it was more of a gradual figuring out
