    Skinnier Than Girth Brooks

    This week on Wasted Truth, Nik and Jill are joined by longtime homie and absolute industry badass, Gemaal: the man behind Apertif, a high-end bartending company slinging booze at weddings and events all over. Nik’s worked with him for over a decade, so you know the stories run deep. From shutting down entire weddings three hours in, to witnessing guests turn into full-blown monsters of entitlement, Jamal doesn’t hold back. Oh, and yes, we talk about “Harry Potter-ing babies” (yes, literal infants stored in closets so their parents could rage). We unpack the chaos of working weddings, the pain of drunk groups of men public, and what it’s like trying to keep things classy when everyone else is messy. It’s wild, it’s funny, and it’s as unhinged as you’d expect. Cheers, degenerates. Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD!

    Super Gay (Without The Cape)

    This week on Wasted Truth, Nik and Jill are joined by the iconic duo Christa and Jonda: owners of East Nashville’s legendary Lipstick Lounge, Tennessee’s only certified lesbian bar that’s been slinging drinks and queer joy for over two decades. We get into what it’s like growing up gay in the South, coming out, and what it means to run a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community in a state that isn’t always so welcoming. Of course, it wouldn’t be Wasted Truth without some unhinged bar stories, including a traumatic trip down memory lane featuring the infamous “doo-doo-thong” and the “water-meter-shitter.” Oh, and we also talk about Jill’s bush…. You’ve been warned. Come for the gay history, stay for the poop trauma. Cheers, queers! Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD!

    Shoutout to Cream Pies

    This week, we hit record from Goodtimes (literally), where Nik slings drinks and we get real with the one and only Alli Torres - a straight-up powerhouse in the service industry. She’s a writer, VP of the sultry new tequila brand Quintalisa, and the baddie behind the bar on the latest two seasons of Bar Rescue. We dive into what it means to dominate in a male-heavy industry, how to demand your seat at the damn table, and all the wild shit that comes with working in cities like Miami and NYC. Expect tequila-fueled tangents, behind-the-scenes Bar Rescue tea, and the usual Wasted Truth filth you know and love. Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD!

    Bridezillas, Bourbon, & Boofing Everclear

    This week on Wasted Truth, Nik and Jill are joined by Philip from Nelson’s Greenbrier Distillery: a former wedding planner turned whiskey-slinging event guru. We dive into some of his most unhinged bridezillatales, talk about the wild ride from organizing teary vows to pouring Tennessee bourbon, and taste through some damn fine local whiskey right from the beautiful Greenbrier event space. We play a raunchy round of “WWPD - What Would Phil Do” on bizarre event requests (no, you cannot bring your emotional support petting zoo), debate whether RuPaul’s lost it, and for some reason boofing Everclear gets mentioned, tune in to find out why. Philip may not have slung drinks behind the stick, but he’s got plenty of industry chaos under his belt. It’s messy, it’s boozy, and it’s Wasted Truth, baby. Let's spill some W-Tea!

    Story Time with Nik & Jill

    It’s just Nik and Jill this week, and the claws are out. In true Wasted Truth fashion, the girls dive into a full-on yappy bitch sesh about the most annoying guests, the dumbest bar behavior, and the kind of service industry nonsense that makes you want to scream into the ice well. Jill shares a story about one of the absolute worst customers she’s ever had to deal with (and she’s seen some shit), while Nik talks about some “friends” who brought unnecessary drama—including a wife who straight-up called the bar to make sure her man wasn’t lying. We also bring back our favorite segment: “Don’t F*****g Do’s” featuring even more service sins that’ll have every bartender nodding and raging in solidarity. Tune in, vent with us, and remember: the customer isn’t always right—they’re just loud. Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD!

    Smart, Hot, & Therapized

    This week on Wasted Truth, Nik and Jill sit down with Jason Sorbet—New Orleans native, neuroscience degree holder, and current part-owner of Nashville’s brand new booze den, Barrel Proof. We dive deep into Jason’s roots in the industry, from slinging drinks as a kid in the Big Easy to running one of Nashville’s hottest new bars. We also get real about mental health in the service world, how to keep your head on straight while working your ass off, and why Jason traded brains for booze (literally). Of course, it wouldn’t be a Wasted Truth episode without a few unhinged stories, raunchy laughs, and a good ol’ shit-talking session. Get ready to pour one up and tune in—this one’s got brains and booze. Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD! (347) 927-8333 // (347) WASTEDD MERCH Coming soon!

    Hey Siri: Call The Count

    This week on Wasted Truth, Nik and Jill welcome the absolute legend that is Courtney from Fernet-Branca—a woman who knows more about booze and brand life than your average barfly knows about bad decisions. We dive into her wild ride through the alcohol industry, hopping state to state slinging beer and spirits before landing in Nashville during peak pandemic chaos. She’s been repping Fernet for two years now (aka keeping the service industry’s collective liver slightly terrified), and we get into her day-to-day adventures, the fun parties she throws, and why Fernet is basically bartender holy water. Come for the industry gossip, stay for the digestive talk and degenerate stories. Cheers, ya filthy animals. Let's spill some W-Tea! CALL US, YOUR VOICEMAIL MIGHT JUST MAKE IT ON THE POD!
