Episode 91: Hallowine Part II (with John-Paul Cirelli)

John-Paul Cirelli returns to Pairing for a second edition of our Hallowine series! This time we talk more about the holiday of Halloween itself: the history of the holiday, and our own personal traditions. Plus: haunted wineries, illegal UFO landings in wine country, a pairing for candy corn, Hell-ebrating, "Demon Wine" with Tom Waits, near-death experiences, and wine from a sippy cup. Make sure to buy John-Paul's new collection of short stories, The Feeling a Good Bar Can Give You and Other Stories, check out his blog at Mondo Vulgare, listen to his music on Spotify, The Video Tramps on Spotify, and listen to his curated playlist of 666 minutes of Halloween music.
