The Chatty Fox: Conversations With a 20 Something Melissa Palafox

Happy Wine Wednesday! Today's episode is part 1 of my "Chips & Myths" series, where I eat chips with wine and debunk common myths in the wine industry. For the wine segment today I try pairing a sauvignon blanc with sour cream and onion chips which was... interesting. I also included some crunchy ASMR lol. Then I give some pointers on why the common myth of "white wine only pairs with chicken or fish" is a blanket statement that is NOT entirely true. Plus, I also give some alternative recommendations for these types of dishes. Hope you enjoy this series and stay tuned for part 2!

Introducing the man behind my cover art: Angel Lopez! Today on the pod we talk about music we heard growing up at a Latino household, going out to clubs and being stereotyped, plus I put Angel in the hot seat and ask him questions on controversial dating topics lol. Also, he talks a little more on his background in graphic design and working in the wedding industry. Honestly this episode was all over the place but also some great chisme so if you want some company while on your commute or cleaning, definitely tune in!

Another guest episode in the season 2 books! Introducing my cousin Natalie. She is fresh into her 20s but already has a lot to say about dating. We talk about toxic men, self sabotage and how daddy issues mirror in our dating habits. This is a venting session for sure, so if you just like hearing chisme, have similar boy drama or want to listen to two girls catch up over wine, definitely tune in!

Take a shot every time I say "iconic" and "teen movie" lol.
This week's episode is a fun one! I talk about all things teen rom coms that were inspired by classic literature. I watched some of my favorite ones again and talk about the connections to themes and characters from their literature counterparts. If you love all things 90s-00s teen movies and drama, pick one of the movies talked about and watch with a glass of wine tonight.

***OUR VIEWS IN THIS EPISODE DON’T REPRESENT BODEVI OR TRUMAN HOUSE TAVERN IN ANY WAY. Happy wine Wednesday! Today I have a very special guest on the podcast to talk about all things food, memes and wine! Today I have on Bryan Aguila. He is a 30 something chef/food lover who works at Truman House Tavern (which so happens to be the sister business of our sponsor for this episode: Bodevi Wine and Espresso Bar). We have a casual conversation about his career as a chef, LGBTQ+ issues and his experience coming out, plus we mention a lot of great memes and hilarious anecdotes.

Happy Wine Wednesdays foxies! Today is another solo episode about non-alcoholic wines. This might be a potential series where I try different ones so today is the first one and I do a deep dive on how they are made and is it TRULY safe to drink while pregnant?? This was just a research experiment for me and I wanted to share it with you all so hopefully you learn a thing or two :)

**DISCLAIMER I am not a medical professional. Please consult with your doctor first if you are interested in drinking non-alcoholic wine and beer while you are pregnant and/or breastfeeding.
