    208 - Band on the Run

    This week we tried Gerard Bertrand Côtes de Roses Rosé and discussed Season 2 Episode 8: “Band on the Run”. Cory and Sean form a fake band to impress girls, and Alan learns that he was never actually that good at playing guitar… Cory has to relearn the importance of being true to himself, and when Topanga expresses that she doesn’t mind Cory’s lack of guitar skills, we can’t help but notice she sounds a whole lot like Amy. This episode surprisingly lays some major foundations for the future of Cory and Topanga’s legendary partnership—and it happens to feature some awesome musicians, including Rembrandt (RIP), and Micky Dolenz…of Monkees fame! Cheers.

    207 - Wake Up, Little Cory

    Now we know why the blurb for this one is just, “Literature comes alive for little Cory...” Sex, lies, and videotape are the topics addressed in this scandalous episode in which Turner takes his progressive teaching moves a bit too far… We sipped Ruza Rose and talked at length about S-E-X in Season 2 Episode 7: “Wake Up, Little Cory!”

    206 - Who's Afraid of Cory Wolf?

    Where have WE been? Where have YOU been!? This week, we sipped another Winc wine as we discussed Season 2 Episode 6: “Who’s Afraid of Cory Wolf?” A red blend called “Illusion” paired perfectly with an episode we…sort of wish was just an illusion. If you don’t want this one to go right over your head, we recommend watching the 1941 black-and-white film, “The Wolf Man”. Having seen Edward Albee’s 1962 play, “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” won’t help—and neither will having read William Golding’s 1954 novel, The Lord of the Flies, though both are superficially referenced in this bewildering episode in which Cory believes he’s turning into a werewolf. While it’s obvious to viewers that it’s all an allegory for puberty, no one in the BMW-universe seems to pick up on that… Grab the remote and get ready to be…a little confused!

    205 - The Uninvited

    Do you think Cory Matthews is “cool”? This week we tried the next bottle in our Winc subscription box: Finke’s Sparkling Brut from Italy, and we paired it with Season 2 Episode 5: “The Uninvited”—Cory tries to fit in with the popular crowd. Pop a bottle of bubbly and join us as we discuss what it means to be COOL. Spoiler: trying to be cool is super uncool.

    204 - Me and Mr. Joad (Chaser)

    Welcome to our first ‘Chaser’! In this episode, Brie invited her coworker (and fellow English teacher) Brian on the pod to further discuss Season 2 Episode 4: “Me and Mr. Joad”. We dropped a hint at the end of the blurb for our last episode, and if you guessed ‘Mike’s Hard Lemonade’, ding ding ding! Indeed, in this, our first ‘Chaser’ episode, Brie and Brian sipped Mike’s Hard Black Cherry Lemonade and discussed the pedagogical differences between young, progressive teachers (like Turner) and old, conservative ones (like Feeny). Spoiler: a happy medium is the way to go.

    204 - Me and Mr. Joad

    This week we tried ‘Wonders Vin de France’ from our Winc subscription box: a white blend made with no sugar and organic grapes! Speaking of grapes, Cory reads “The Grapes of Wrath” by John Steinbeck in Season 2 Episode 4: “Me and Mr. Joad”. Cory and Shawn decide to unionize and walk out of school when they are forced to take a test… Brie had so much to say about this episode, she recorded a bonus interview with her coworker, Brian (a fellow English teacher). Stay tuned for Boy Meets Wine’s first “Chaser” episode! I bet you can’t guess what Brie and Brian drank… We’ll give you a hint: Drink on the bright side.

    203 - Notorious

    Today we discuss the (Porter and) ‘Plot’ of Season 2 Episode 3: “Notorious”. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Scarlet Letter” lays a (vague) moral framework for Cory’s struggle to decide whether or not to turn Shawn in for playing a prank on Feeny. “Porter and Plot” is the name of this week’s smooth, misty Cab Sauv from the cozy coasts of Mendocino, CA!

    202 - Pairing Off

    We may have loved this week’s bottle of Piu Gioia Pinot Grigio, but Cory feels anything but ‘pure joy’ in Season 2 Episode 2: “Pairing Off”. Cory and Shawn attend their first “make-out party”, Amy is surprisingly stoked about it, and the entire cast attends a poetry slam that makes peaches seem…sexy? Anyway…Cin cin!
