Bueller...Bueller...Bueller...I love this film by John Hughes, but who doesn't. It has so many great lines, amazing adventures in Chicago, a perfect cast, and a great way to spend a day off. This film is available to stream on Netflix, Pluto, and Paramount+, as well as on Amazon to rent. I found the DVD at Target (they also had it solo on Blu-ray) in a pack of John Hughes films, 5 in total. I feel like this is a great family movie, although my podcast isn't. For those few who haven't seen it, including my guest until we recorded, the film is about you guessed it, Ferris Bueller (Matthew Broderick) who has an uncanny skill at cutting classes and getting away with it. He is intending to make one last duck-out before graduation, Ferris calls in sick, "borrows" a Ferrari, and embarks on a one-day journey through the streets of Chicago. On Ferris' trail is high school principal Rooney (Jeffrey Jones), determined to catch him in the act. The Day Off (Recipe from In The Drink on YouTube): Ingredients 1.5 oz Bacardi Carta Blanca 0.5 oz Peach Liqueur 1 oz Cream of Coconut 1 oz Orange Juice 3-4 oz Pineapple Juice Directions Blend with ice roughly doubling the volume of the cocktail. Pour into a tiki mug. Garnish with pineapple fronds, a lemon wheel, and cocktail cherries. Drift into a world of pure relaxation. Drinking Game (foryourinebriation.com): Easy Mode Drink for Title drops drink for the full title and whenever someone says Ferris Bueller. Drink when they drink. Drink for Daddy Issues.

Dan Petroski was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, and has the swagger and the accent to prove it. After attending Columbia University where he played football, Dan went to work for Time, Inc. While there, he earned his MBA from NYU and worked his way up the ranks towards a promising future in magazine publishing. A good chunk of his tenure at Time was spent managing advertising clients, which involved considerable schmoozing. This is how Dan learned wine, by walking his expense account through the lists of Manhattan’s top restaurants. When the Wall Street Journal tried to poach him, Dan took a moment to reflect. Deciding a change of life was in order, he jettisoned to Sicily for a year, where he interned at Valle dell’Acate. While Dan’s intention was to return to New York to sell wine, a harvest invitation from Andy Smith at DuMOL in 2006 was too good to pass up, and Dan left the city again, this time facing west. After harvest, Andy Smith hired Dan as Cellar Master at Larkmead. The following year, Dan was promoted to Assistant Winemaker, ultimately claiming the Larkmead Winemaker title in 2012. Before cementing his status as a Napa Valley Cabernet winemaker, in 2009 Dan launched a white wine only brand called Massican. Massican is Dan’s ode to the Mediterranean and his time spent living in Italy and drinking white wine. Dan is a gifted, instinctual winemaker, and his old world palate has guided his philosophy on wine. Dan’s approach and ability to craft wines as diverse as Cabernet Sauvignon and Tocai Friulano has earned him the recognition as San Francisco Chronicle’s Winemaker of the Year in 2017.

Host Joe Campanale is joined by Stephanie and Eduard Tscheppe-Eselböck of the Gut Oggau winery in Burgenland, Austria. Before starting the winery, Eduard made conventional wine with his father in Styria, and Stephanie’s family owned and operated the Michelin starred restaurant Taubenkobel. They painstakingly restored the 17th century winery that had been abandoned for 20 years, including its 200-year-old screw press. The vines’ 20-year period of neglect was fortunate, as this allowed for all pesticide and chemical treatments to be washed away. This let them begin working immediately on vines biodynamically, where they are now fully Demeter certified. In the Drink is powered by Simplecast
