We chat about simple joys like getting an email from People Magazine and dive into the bizarre case of Brazilian sharks testing positive for cocaine!

Next, we explore life in the Olympic Village, from athlete housing to customizable mattresses. We're hyped about NBA players in the Olympics and can't wait for the events. Our TV pick this week is "Mayor of Kingstown." We're obsessed with its storytelling, acting, and cinematography, and we’re baffled by its lack of Emmy nods.

To wrap up, we imagine our roles in a Handmaid’s Tale scenario and rave about 14 Hands Winery's canned wine. We also discuss the FDA’s warning about THC edibles resembling kids' snacks, stressing the need for responsible storage. Grab your favorite wine, join us, and let’s toast to laughter and great conversations! Cheers!

Alex:

Welcome to the no Wine Left Behind podcast, where we uncork the perfect blend of wine and wines from our everyday lives. I'm Alex.

Celia:

And I'm Celia. We are here together in the wine cellar sipping on different blends of wine, while sharing the ups and downs, frustrations and funny moments of our daily adventures.

Alex:

So grab a glass of vino, join us as we raise our voices and our glasses. Together, we'll dive into the drama of life as we see it. Hello, sometimes I forget that we are also video recording and I catch myself making these faces or just like closing my eyes when I shouldn't. Whoops, yeah, I get it. What's going on, lady?

Celia:

Um, I so, as I was talking about before, I was trying to adjust my camera, get everything ready to go, and I literally tipped over my entire glass of wine, like everywhere. I was like so. I had to just like move everything, go get cleaner, clean it up. And here I am now. Was it red or white? It was red, oh, tough hit. So that. So the the, the, my, I, hopefully, I sprayed some stuff on the carpet so hopefully there's no stains, but it's red wine, so you never know.

Alex:

Here's hoping I'm sure you'll be fine, if not, time for a new carpet, a little downstairs reno.

Celia:

Not in the budget.

Alex:

Fair enough. Fair enough, but at least you have reason.

Celia:

So what's happening? What's new? Anything crazy and wild in your life your world.

Alex:

Nothing new, nothing wild, nothing crazy. I heard something funny today. I was watching a show and a lady said you know, you don't really see the light at the end of the tunnel, it's just another tunnel, and then another tunnel, and then another tunnel, and that resonated with me.

Celia:

Oh my God, I heard of a saying about the light at the end of the tunnel once. I don't remember what it was, but it wasn't that. It definitely wasn't that.

Alex:

It's so true. It's just always something, and you just got to roll with the punches and keep pushing.

Celia:

I feel like the saying I heard was more positive than the one you just said. The same.

Alex:

I feel like mine was positive, I feel like it was realistic.

Celia:

Okay, I can agree with you there. That is realistic Because, like I always say, there's always something going on, so Never, not Right, never, not something Right right. Say there's always something going on, so never, not, right, never not something right right, that's always fun so I don't even know where to start. I have like a million and one things I want to talk about, but obviously we're not going to be able to talk about it all today, so let's start with something that's really cool, okay. Actually it's more funny than cool.

Celia:

Oh, okay, I'm excited you know how everything I talk about mostly comes from People Magazine, because I always talk about how much I love People Magazine.

Alex:

Yes.

Celia:

I got an email the other day from People Magazine. They're emailing you. That said we want you just as much as I love them they miss you, they miss you and you got to go back.

Alex:

Are you going back?

Celia:

well I I read it online, so I don't really need to have the paper um version of it at my home. Do they differ like what?

Alex:

you would get in the like paper magazine versus what you read online versus what you would like email. Is there benefit like one or the other?

Celia:

I know that it's a weekly magazine. It comes out every week. I don't know if it's differ from the online version format, but I feel like I get enough news online that I don't need to subscribe and get yeah so I mean. I'm flattered, like I'm so excited and flattered like that. They want me back, but unfortunately I'm probably not gonna go back right now you'll have to like print and frame that or something.

Alex:

Put it on a t-shirt. Yeah, people want to be back, memorialize it. I'm happy that your relationship is thriving.

Celia:

Thank you, yeah so funny, I was excited for them so, yeah, yeah, you're lucky, I'm not.

Alex:

I'm not getting those emails. No emails, no phone calls, no text. Nothing wants me back nobody wants you back.

Celia:

That's okay. That's okay, that's fine. Might be better. You know how they say no news is good news.

Alex:

That might be better that way, right I'm not sad about it, don't worry, oh boy so um brazilian sharks that tested positive for cocaine? No, but this is reminiscent of the story we talked about before. Oh, was it hippos, hippos before.

Celia:

So bears, cocaine bears bear. Yes, of course, hippos in columbia, and now we have freaking sharks in brazil. Like what?

Alex:

is happening. Yeah, not good, not good, it's scary and also it's a waste of product. Like what the fuck is happening? Like how is this happening and why aren't there better quality controls?

Celia:

I think you know just from when they're trying to transport the drugs back and forth. Maybe you know stuff falls out of the boat, um, who knows. But it does get into the water. Obviously the freaking sharks are eating it up, drinking it up, whatever.

Celia:

I don't know what's if it's still in a bundle when it's down there or if it opens up and it I don't know out, yeah people didn't say say, but it says that there are definitely 13 sharks that were pulled out of the water, tested positive for cocaine and they're unclear how the nose candy made its way into the water and how it's going to affect their behavior.

Alex:

I'm pretty sure that's not how it got into the water.

Celia:

Yeah that's a no-brainer.

Alex:

That was what was going to be. My next question is like how are they reacting to this? Because sharks are already fucking crazy, right? So like a shark on cocaine yeah, it's, I think.

Celia:

Well, it says here that, um, they suspect that they were a little extra aggressive and they may have been raging chomping on fishies. It might sound humorous, but it's definitely a sign of the ecosystem for the ecosystem fucking raging sharks okay. The thing says you've heard of sharknado, now get ready for cracked out sharks. Oh my god, that's terrifying.

Celia:

It's funny, but it's fucking terrifying, terrifying imagine like in brazil, out on a boat having a fun time and this like no, it's crazy. Like shark comes out acting loud, crazy and all like weird and like. That's not the normal behavior of a shark like oh that's a cocaine shark. Like that's no, nope, immediately no, thank you, nope so, yeah, and they, they made sure they tested a few of them just to be sure that they were like getting this accurate, like you know what I mean?

Alex:

that's scary, that's scary, that's a lot. And then I wonder if it's like the hippos too, because didn't the hippos have babies and the babies were like coked out too. Yeah, yeah, like does that happen with the, with the, with the sharks? And then does that like also impact other fish? Like are there crazy shrimp, like what's happening?

Celia:

yeah, crazy lobsters cocaine, shrimps cocaine whatever is on the Brazilian coast, like what is going on like everything all the sea life down there must be like like they're all whacked out over there in Brazil right now all the sea creatures. Oh my god, that is hilarious, scary. I'm sure it just doesn't affect the sharks, no, everything right.

Alex:

And then like, if you eat it, like do you then have cocaine in your system? Right, that's crazy.

Celia:

That's a big point. I don't know, man, I don't know. That's a tough one, because it's cooked once it comes out of the water. So you know how, like you put wine in food and you like, you simmer it and you almost like cook it out. I wonder if that's the same thing as like eating shark, because people do eat shark right, oh, 100%, yeah, so eating shark like a grilled shark and the cocaine gets cooked out during the process.

Alex:

I don't know well, I mean, if you cook cocaine, doesn't it become crack? So okay, all right.

Celia:

Well, that's why it's called crack sharks. Okay, I get it now.

Alex:

All right I'm just wondering, I don't, I don't know these things. I I've seen it on TV, yeah.

Celia:

Oh, is that what those little rocks are on the spoon that people are burning and cooking? It's cocaine. Okay, no idea.

Alex:

No idea, I drink wine. I know nothing about that.

Celia:

Yeah same, so I have some exciting news Do tell. The Olympics, the Olympics are starting. The opening ceremony is Friday. Yay, I thought, the Olympics, the Olympics are starting.

Alex:

The opening ceremony is Friday. Yay, I thought the Olympics were already happening. What am I seeing on TV about the Olympics? Are they like practicing, like what I thought it was already?

Celia:

a thing. You, oh my God, you need to be excited. Olympics are fun to watch in the summer.

Alex:

No, they're not fun to watch ever, Even like the Winter Olympics.

Celia:

Oh I love the Winter Olympics, skiing and everything.

Alex:

Not interesting.

Celia:

Well, we're going to talk a little bit about it.

Alex:

I'm sure it's a big deal and someone who's listening will be excited. So go off, queen. Tell me more, get me excited.

Celia:

So they have a lot of rules they have to follow.

Alex:

Okay.

Celia:

And some of them are like let's see.

Alex:

I heard they sleep on like cardboard beds yep, athletes aren't. Yes, they do I read about that they're called anti-sex beds.

Celia:

Yeah, that's so fresh. Yep, they're called anti-sex beds, anti-sex beds, anti same thing, right, and they're returning for the 2024 Olympics. So they used these beds in the 2020 Tokyo Games and they're basically like you said. They're sustainable and the materials are 100% made in France. Okay, and they consist of like three modules so they can choose the mattress firmness and the frame can base can be extended based on the person's size and then it can be fully recycled after the games. That's actually pretty cool, but as far as they say like anti-sex beds, like they're still big enough to like, but they're- probably.

Alex:

They're probably not sturdy enough.

Celia:

Right, see, that's probably. Oh, ok, it said it said it would only be able to withstand the weight of a single person. Yeah, ok, ok, now I guess I'm like they look good, but yeah, yeah, the bed could collapse if more than one person um goes on it. So, wow, that's interesting. Oh, my gosh yeah, so they have rules like athletes aren't allowed to enter the olympic village until july 8th. So, um, it means all qualifying athletes they're not allowed to move into their residence until July 8th.

Alex:

I mean that's probably good for the Paris economy because a lot of people are there now so they're just staying at like hotels and Airbnbs and stuff.

Celia:

Oh my God, Paris must be hopping.

Alex:

I wish I was there right now.

Celia:

When I went there last year, it was amazing. It was crazy, but now, with the Olympics, it's probably like times a hundred.

Alex:

Yeah, I can't imagine. I can't imagine.

Celia:

Athletes must reside with their country's team. Okay, that makes sense um family and friends allowed in olympic village so it's just where they live and where they eat, where they shop. It's just their private place. That's good. Nursing athletes are allowed to bring their infants into the olympic village. Nice, okay, progressive love that cool.

Celia:

Um, athlete security can enter the olympic village at certain times, but not all time. Each sports team decides on an athlete's roommate, okay, okay, athletes who are minors must room with other minors. No, duh like thank goodness, yeah, they're allowed to customize their mattresses. Okay, yeah, so you know, they must abide by olympic village quiet hours. So 10 pm to 7 8 quiet, which is good.

Alex:

Take that shit off off village premise, have fun and then come back and sleep. Don't bother other people.

Celia:

That's nice. Yeah, no alcohol is allowed. Good, they're allowed to mingle with athletes from other countries in the Olympic Village. That's nice. They get to meet other. Let's see what else. Yeah, just a bunch of athletes are allowed access to different resources in the Olympic Village. Dietary products are allowed to be shipped into the village. They can leave and re-enter the village. Pets are not allowed oh, that's sad yeah, so yeah, they're allowed to ride bikes in the olympic village. That must be a big village. Yeah, that's crazy.

Celia:

Yeah, that I bet it's so freaking cool and they don't have to stay. The athletes do not do not have to stay in the olympic village. They can choose to, but if they choose to, they have to follow the the rules yeah, that's probably expensive yeah, opening ceremony, so there are. So there are some things happening like they started today. Actually, some stuff started today, but the opening ceremony is friday oh, yeah, yeah.

Alex:

So I saw the um, the celtics, either earlier this week or like late last week. They were there, um, I don't remember who exactly was recording, but someone recorded and put it on tiktok that the whole team was on. Oh, not the celtics. Obviously some of the celtics team members who are on the nba olympic team, like usa olympic team, they were in the tube so they all took videos of them like being in the tube and it was like really funny.

Celia:

Oh my god, that is such an awesome experience yeah it is a very it's a great, great experience. I love the two yeah, mine yeah yeah, really cool.

Alex:

So maybe I'll find a sport, an event that interests me. I'll try to get into the olympics.

Celia:

I'll try there has to be some basketball.

Alex:

You can watch the basketball yeah, true, but like it's just other countries and I don't really care about other countries, but I suppose it would be fun to watch because USA to win.

Celia:

Yeah, usa, usa, come on, girl, get with it. So, yeah, I like it, I'll be watching.

Alex:

Keep us posted. Give us some stats. We'll be talking about the Olympics. Gosh, what else are you watching? Are you caught up on? Mayor of Kingstown?

Alex:

I am Holy shit, so it's so good, amazing, yes, I finally caught up and I texted you and was like this is just the best show ever. Yes, yes, the photography of it all, the videography of it all, the script, the actors it is so good. The one part in the uh, the latest episode, where tracy is confiding about what's happening in prison literally gave me chills. So it's one thing for there to be like a dialogue or a monologue and for you to be like moved by it. Right, that one scene with her and mike. They shared no words, no only looks, and I got goosebumps like you just knew, yeah, and I was like this show is good. Yes, it's good. Um, also, did you know that bunny is british?

Celia:

yes, I knew that. I read about that a couple months ago.

Alex:

I love him. I love him so much.

Celia:

And he speaks like perfect English, but yes, he's British.

Alex:

I'm really nervous that Ian is going to die. I feel like they're showing him a lot this season and I feel like when they do that with other shows, it means something bad is going to happen. I hope that's not the case, but I feel like something they do that with other shows, it means something bad is going to happen. I hope that's not the case, but I feel like something's going to happen to Ian and I'm also really sad that the show is so good. It's in its third season and they got nominated for no Emmys how the fuck.

Celia:

No, that's how the fuck that's. Yeah, robbed, yeah, snubbed robbed.

Alex:

yeah, totally awful yeah, mayor of kingstown, great show. If you don't watch it, watch it, it's so good.

Celia:

Yes, it's incredible and I don't know about ian, but I think maybe tracy or the baby or something, because they've got a lot of tragedy in that family I know they're gonna take out another person from that family. Yeah, so it's interesting.

Alex:

Last season I thought it was gonna be kyle, because kyle was like mentally spiraling and I was like something bad's gonna happen to him, but then it ended up being someone else if you haven't watched it. I don't want to spoil it, right? Um? But now this season, I feel like, okay, he has like a strong footing, he's on the SWAT team, while he still, like, has his issues and he's having words with like the other guy I forget his name um, I feel like he's safe. Yeah, I don't know.

Celia:

Yeah, ian makes me nervous a lot too, though he's, I know, yeah, yeah, this whole thing, yeah, in the prison's been really spotlighted. Yes, iris, something's gonna happen to her. There's like I mean, I don't know how long she can be playing both sides. I know.

Alex:

No, I get so scared anytime like connie pulls up, anytime mike pulls up, every time she's on her phone in that weird I don't know where it is that she's on her phone when she's outside on that one like concrete ledge and I'm always waiting for someone to like come up to her, because she's just out in the open talking on the phone and I'm like what are you?

Celia:

doing? Why are you being so careless? Right At one point not the last episode, the, the one before that she gets dropped off at her hotel and she immediately calls mike and me and gary looked at each other all like there, there is a listening device, there has to be. Like he just shuts the door and immediately picks up the phone and like wouldn't you be nervous that maybe constantine has like your rumbuck? Like hello, dum-dum. What are you doing?

Alex:

Even this last episode she literally tucked the phone like in between the mattress and the bed frame and I'm like girl, if that shit vibrates, you're still going to hear it. Yeah, and the fact that it's in a bed is super suspicious. Like what are you doing? Just put it down out in the open.

Celia:

It makes no sense but you don't understand. Constantine clearly is a shit show, he's a mess, but yet no one can like take him down. He literally is whacked out all day and he has to like do what he has to do to sleep at night. So well on earth is he not been taken?

Alex:

down yet, well, I feel like only three people know that, all four people. He knows that right. What's the other guy's name? Roman roman knows. Well, she told mike. Iris knows in that other girl who's just around, alex or whatever her name. She knows. But other than that, like other people fear him. I don't think they realize. I didn't even realize until midway through the season that he was taking heroin or whatever it is that he's doing to like sleep at night. Yeah, heroin, and that roman is the one that's like watching him and shooting him up and shit.

Celia:

Oh my god, what's going on and this nobody's taken this guy out yet. Like, are you serious? Yeah?

Alex:

crazy, but I mean, he's like a functioning addict and he's old right, so he has years and years of fear. That's just been built up to this like persona that he is right and I think a lot of people don't know. And then you know, the arian brothers came in and he just like shoots them on the spot, it's just a guy that you don't fuck with right, yeah, no, I suppose you're right.

Celia:

Yeah, he's, he's. I mean he got rid of uh milo allegedly, who knows is he? Right because the boat blew up, but he could have jumped off, so we don't. I'm so curious.

Alex:

I can't imagine the very last episode he like comes through the door guns oh my god, so we didn't talk about this when they found Tati in the fucking dumpster with the baby and the rat? Oh, oh my.

Celia:

God, that was crazy, that was nuts, that was a thing, oh, my. God, that was disgusting. Imagine, oh my God, what a scene. Mm-hmm, yeah, god, what a scene. Yeah, that was. That was horrible. Yeah, disgusting. How about another thing?

Alex:

we didn't mention the guy, the prisoner that um had the drugs in him and they gutted him and, like all of a sudden, the guard found him and his like intestines were literally that was so brutal, but I appreciate how realistic that was because when push comes to shove, like that guy had product in him and you need that shit, so whether you're with him or not, you're going to do what you have to do. Yeah, and it was gross, it was crazy, but that was real, that was nuts.

Celia:

Yeah, that was so real Crazy, oh my God, I don't know. I know. So are you like, do you know anything about, like doomsday prepper stuff? Like, are you, oh my?

Alex:

god, I was just talking about this like two hours ago, so I was saying that when I moved to kentucky, my whole house is going to be like a panic room Because, as we know, now Biden has dropped out, we don't know who's going to be elected at the end of this year If it's a Republican. I'm really afraid, like truthfully afraid, of this whole Project 25 talk that's going on and, yeah, I just don't know what the future holds and I'm fucking gonna move to kentucky. Good luck with that. So my whole house needs to be locked down and I have to go to costco and get these fucking things that they're selling.

Celia:

yes, however much, and I'll be yes, they're selling emergency food buckets that's supposed to last 25 years.

Alex:

I'm getting a couple, just in case people want to come with me.

Celia:

It's providing 150 servings of freeze-dried meals for $99 that stay fresh for 25 years. I literally want to buy one just to see what's in it and just to taste what's in it, like I want to sample that thing 100%.

Alex:

I would do it just because and you know what it's probably good because they've been selling such stuff in like NASA and the Army and whatever for like years. So these, while of course they're not like gourmet, they're not fucking delicious, they're not going to be terrible.

Celia:

I bet you they're not terrible oh, wow, it says that it includes, like pasta, alfredo, which I would die because I like. So that's, that's a no, that's a hard fucking no. Fucking hate that. Teriyaki rice, which I've never had. Chicken noodle soup I like chicken noodle soup. Granola I like granola. I like pudding. So they said that it totals about 15,000 calories. Wow, yeah, whatever's in that container. I'm buying a couple, I'm going to need them. Yeah, whatever's in that, whatever's in that container, I'm buying a couple, I'm going to need them. So I almost want to buy one just to test it and be like.

Alex:

I'll leave the Alfredo for you. I'll let you know how it is.

Celia:

So gross. But yeah, this selling emergency food buckets. When I saw that I was like, wait, what's happening? Why is this happening? It makes me nervous. Like is the world ending? Like what the fuck is happening? Why are we having to buy $99 emergency food?

Alex:

I mean good on Costco. I think Costco is recognizing that there are a lot of Americans that are afraid, that are nervous, that are prepping, like. There are people that have been doing this for years, but I think they're doing it more so now, and with relevance, because these are crazy fucking times. So last episode we talked about Trump and his attempted assassination. Biden has dropped out of the race and things are changing really quickly, super fast, and there's just no way to know what the end of this year, let alone 2025 and the next four years, is gonna let it hold in store for us, right?

Celia:

we don't know. Yeah it's fucking creepy. Yeah it's super weird. Well, I'm gonna stay positive and hope that it looks really good and a lot of good, great things happen for our country, but I guess time will tell yeah, it's either gonna be, super great, or it's gonna be like handmaid's tale love that. Oh, no, no, no, no. What would you want? What would, what would your role if it became handmaid's tale? What would you?

Alex:

be, I'm a fucking martha.

Celia:

I'm a martha I would want to be a martha too.

Alex:

I think, yeah, 100 I'm a martha all day, cook clean, take care of these babies, yeah or be one of the teachers taking care of the kids in the school.

Celia:

Yeah, yeah, I could do that too. Yeah, yeah, I like that yeah, yeah, but it's not gonna happen so I'll be, I'll be, I'll be the one fighting all the time and like honestly, you're in a better position than me because you have a partner me who is single project 2025. It impacts me way more than you so you'll be all right, you'll be fine. I'll make sure that you're fine. I'm going to kenya I will tell gary, my commander, that he's safe. He comes with us. It will go to kenya don't worry about that.

Alex:

Before I have my passport I'm going to kenya.

Celia:

Kenya I thought you said canada, like no?

Alex:

no, it's still in America. There's only a border that separates us. It's not enough. We need to go far, far away, and it's going to be Africa, all right.

Celia:

Well, let's go, let's do it. I'm there, I'm with you, yep, that's the way to go. So I don't know if you saw this. Yeah, what is that? It's called 14 Hands. So remember when we were in Miami and I told you I bought a can of wine because it just seemed interesting to me and I wanted to test it out and see what it was like. So it's 14 Hands Winery Hot to try. I love that when it's a red can that's so smart.

Celia:

Yep, what I'm drinking is a smooth red blend and it actually says best served chilled on the can. That's how red should be.

Alex:

Yeah, I know people have their qualms with that like idea, but I like my red cold so I have to shout out to 14 hands it's pretty good.

Celia:

It's actually pretty good. I mean it's in a can, so I don't know what people's opinion would be of that, but I'm trying to see what the volume of alcohol is.

Alex:

I don't it's all the same when it's going down the gullet right, that's what I say, I mean. I know you know wines.

Celia:

There's good wine, bad wine is. This one is that wine, but so it's 13.5% alcohol. That's crazy. It's this can is equal to two glasses of wine. Love it how.

Alex:

I want to try some now, can you?

Celia:

imagine Good, good stuff. We'll to uh get an order in somewhere.

Alex:

Yeah, you have to find out if they have any near us. If not, ship it, ship it.

Celia:

Yeah, I bet you, they would who knows. But yeah, I said, let's try it. I don't mind it, so shout out 14th winery.

Alex:

I love it. It's a great concept, good name I love it.

Celia:

I do too. I love it a lot, very cool. So this can you know how much this can cost me in miami? 18 bucks, 20 dollars. Close, you were close that's crazy.

Alex:

Yeah, it makes sense because technically, per the can you're getting two glasses.

Celia:

Yeah, so and I love a good red blend. That's, yeah, my fave, so yeah I like it yeah, I'm happy. That's good. I was. I was a little nervous when I was trying it, but it worked out well. So I was reading an article the other day and the FDA was warning people about warning the public about the edibles that look like the common children's snack foods. So there's an edible out there called Trips Ahoy. Oh my gosh, it looks like the Chips Ahoy cookies, except the bag is like a little darker blue.

Celia:

Yeah um, there's a skittles edible called slizzles that look just again, just looks like the bag of skittles. But on the bag there's marijuana leaves all over it with skittles and the rainbow and all that, no. And then they have cheetos. The cheetos literally looks identical. They both say cheetos, they both say flaming hot. Almost no difference, except on the cheetos bag with the thc. It has like a grown grow something on it with like a like a little triangle with the marijuana flower that doesn't seem responsible like no, we're not good business decisions not at all.

Celia:

I was just like really disappointed to see that the industry has gone and done something like that because hi ray abaya I'm trying to get her to come up. Come here aww, hi, pretty girl. Look at you, rough rider. Look at she. Looks so sweet, but she's not. She's a beast. I'll drink my wine. That wine might calm her down? I doubt it. So, yeah, it was disappointing to see them go in that direction, considering how I mean the children, like children, can get their hands on that and yeah there are irresponsible adults out there that will just leave it in the cabinet or throw it in there.

Celia:
