Apertivo Hour with Andy Wedge (The Lost Episode)

Six months after recording, we’re finally releasing our lone “Lost Episode” with Andy Wedge of Momofuku in New York City. As a continuation of last week’s theme, hosts Mike and Kenneth explore the traditions of apertivo hour with Wedge, along with wine correspondent Alex Burch from Bastion. This is the last time the whole group was together in the studio going back to March 1, 2020.

Also covered: the legendary Garibaldi cocktail, pairing wine with spicy food, the difficulties of categorizing food, pairing wines with hip hop, and what sommeliers really think of white claw. To close, Mike follows up with Andy in the present time to discuss all the adversity he has faced since their chat in March.
