Just the Tipple is a comedy, history and drinks podcast hosted by longtime friends Sarah Spooner (@ssspoonah) and Wes Wehking (@30minutesorWes). With the jokes as heavy as the pours, each episode breaks down the makeup and history of classic (and not-so-classic) drinks: from cocktails to straight liquor to stouts to shots. The only rule: if they talk about it, they have to drink it too. Join in the silliness as they explore all things alcoholic. This isn't in-depth history, y'all. This is just the tipple.

What happens when two tired co-hosts attempt to tackle their favorite cocktail? Well..this is what happens. Join us as we discuss our very rational fear of volcanoes, talk sibling rivalries,  not-so-simple syrups, home bar adventures and trivia about airplanes.
