Sips and Sneaks

Disco, Toro, and Meat Sweats

The fellas are back in the booth to get everyone ready for the three day weekend here in the States. To kick things off, we got some Sips Suggestions or some Memorial Day moves for folks at home to get inspired. Featuring not just Sips but pairing ideas too, there is bound to be something in here for everyone. On the other hand, speaking of things not for everyone, SJ is sharing another upcoming Jordan 4 that drops later this month. It’s a returning classic but the two aren’t crazy about them. Find out why by catching the full breakdown now.

The fellas are back in the booth and in typical Sips and Sneaks fashion, we are late. To kick things off, AJ is talking about a wine that might’ve been ideal for Mother’s day.

Bursts Episode #4

The fellas are running it back with another Burst, this is Bursts #4. Yes, the name is still in development, but again, these episodes are shorter and more compact, like a point guard or a nooner. These are quick, to the point and almost all business. Shorter than a Sprintz, but designed to be quick reactions to things in our world that folks ought to know. For this fourth installment we got a Jordan 1 Low that needs to be on folks' radar. Plus it’s the return of one our beloved segments, Fire or Fugazi. From there, AJ shares a Vermouth that everyone needs to try, perfect for Spring and both pre or post dinner. You’ll definitely enjoy this one, but enjoy responsibly.

Bursts Episode #3

For this go around the fellas are running it back with another Burst. Yes, the name is still in development, but again, these episodes are shorter and more compact, like a point guard or a nooner. These are quick, to the point and almost all business. Shorter than a Sprintz, but designed to be quick reactions to things in our world that folks ought to know. For this third installment we got a Best Sip in the Wild courtesy of a Sake from AJ’s recent omakase experience.  Plus SJ is in the hot seat as we go through 5 sneakers dropping over the next week. If you’re thinking of going for any of them, give this Burst a listen first.
