Episode 31: A Lovely Forge to Hammer Upon

from Xanadu Cinema Pleasure Dome · host Windy Bowlsby and Melissa Kaercher

This week, we share our love of REMAKES! Okay, we only love good remakes, but there are plenty of good remakes to talk about, right? We certainly thought so! We also thought this week’s wine selection was excellent: Castello di Volpaia Indue, which was given to us by one of our fine Brians, Mr. Donohue. We learned that “Indue” is Italian for “Two Together”, which made it extra special. Brian can select our beverages any day! Thank you! Show notes and links behind the cut!
