Wine & Dime

Victor Wine-banyama

After a brief hiatus, Chris (DNP-CD) and Lyndsay (OUT - Wine Tasting in Tuscany) have returned to the lineup, this time drinking a Gewurztraminer. After some brief discussion about this exciting and odd grape, they break down the New York Liberty winning their first ever WNBA Championship over the Minnesota Lynx, where those teams go from here, and the lack of WNBA head coaching job security and the causes/implications, before pivoting to early NBA action and Vince Carter's jersey retirement.

No Sleep til Brooklyn

Chris and Lyndsay are back with their takes on the WNBA playoffs to date including: how the Liberty inspired their wine choices (bonus wine this week!), no Aces three-peat, why the Connecticut Sun are still on fraud watch, and the Minnesota Lynx and their Pheends. After talking about the teams still in it, they move to the teams who are officially in the off-season and some quick NBA pre-season thoughts.
Wine Pairing(s): Cotnari Feteasca Neagra (Romania) & Chevalier De Dyonis Pinot Noir (Romania)

Portland, Playoffs, and Pinot Noir

It's finally time for Pinot Noir for the Wine & Dime Crew, and they're talking WNBA.  Before Chris and Lyndsay dive into the W playoff matchups, they discuss league expansion to Portland (are the Fire back?) and pay a small tribute to Diana Taurasi just in case this is in fact, it.

Grit & Grind(er)

The Wine & Dime crew is back and this time they're drinking South African wine. After some discussion about Pinotage, Chris and Lyndsay name the starting fives of their teams if wines were basketball players before bemoaning the lack of creative player nicknames and doing a draft of the ones that are actually good.

The French Are Real Good At Wine

In this inaugural episode of Wine & Dime, Chris and Lyndsay discuss the inaugural wine they chose and compare the Philadelphia 76ers to a frustrating-to-love grape before discussing the Olympic basketball tournaments and implications for the current WNBA and upcoming NBA seasons.
