Okay, let's talk about the original enemies to lovers story. Before all of our reality TV couples, before the rom-coms, we binge, there was Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy in pride and prejudice. And Audible has just dropped a brand new original that will have you completely hooked, I am. It's not just any audiobook. This is a full cast performance. So Marisa Abella, you might know her from industry, brings Elizabeth Bennett to life.

And Harris Dickinson from Baby Girl and Where the Crawdads Sing is Mr. Darcy. And honestly, the chemistry, you guys, it's everything. Plus, you've got icons like Glenn Close, Bill Nye and Will Polter in the mix. Talk about a dream cast. Now, what I love is how Marissa pulls you right into Lizzie's world, her stubbornness, her wit, her messy family dynamics, and of course, her complicated feelings for Darcy. And with a vibrant new adaptation and original score by Grammy-nominated composer, it just feels so fresh and modern while still keeping that timeless Jane Austen charm.

So whether it's your first time experiencing Pride and Prejudice or you've read it a million times, you're going to fall absolutely in love all over again. So go listen to Pride and Prejudice now at audible.ca slash Jane Austen. Let's shake it up some more. Here's Caitlin. Welcome to Grape Therapy. I'm your host, Caitlin Bristow. Let's pod. I'm ready.

Okay. I had too much caffeine today to try to make up for my lack of sleep. Let's go. Oh my gosh. Good. You're into it. I have had two and a half coffees and you know I'm over in the Bachelorette bubbles. So I'm about to have my tequila because it's two in the end.

afternoon. Okay, well, it's noon here and I'll join you. I got to get lubed up for the date, you know? Okay, which that's actually perfect because it's thirsty Thursday. I happen like to be in the Bachelor bubble. I feel like anytime I'm around this setting, I'm just extra thirsty. And when there's cameras around and miced up and producers, I'm like, give me the booze. Do they remember how much you love to drink? It's like, uh, yes. I think so. I mean, they actually have been very impressed with me because I'm not like my old party self. I'm more like a classy couple tequila kind of gal now and then switch to wine but you know oh so classy so classy too classy too classy oh i'm so excited to bring this back people love i know i'm like

i that's that's the the cue for everyone to know that cleo is on the podcast with me today she's uh been keeping me in line and in check and making sure my schedule is going smoothly because let me tell you i've been a busy little bee over here Very busy. Hard to get a hold of. I'm like, where's my bean? But we're going to introduce a couple of new segments. And then we're going to do a little business with Cleo, which I'm so excited about. So we're going to dive into that a little bit. Because let me tell you, you always throw me a curve ball. Just when we think we're getting in the groove of things, you're like, oh, and by the way, I'm going to be gone in five days and not going to be available for two months. I'm like, oh my God. I know. Why do things like this happen so quickly? It's like all very fast and a lot. But I mean, you know what? It's good news because it means I'm going to bring you some, first of all, fun news segments like we said. Then I'll have some juicy recaps for Bachelorette, which made me think I'm like, wait, how's that going to go? Because I'm the freaking deacon like co-host or whatever the

hell you want to call me. And I'm going to know so much behind the scene stuff that may or may not be aired. So I'm really going to have to pay extra extra attention to what actually gets shown in the show. each episode and work on my poker voice, I guess it would be not poker face, poker voice. So I don't give anything away because we all know I'm, I'm a bad liar. And I was going to say, let's not break any more contracts. Yeah, let's not do it. It's not really live history.

Risky moves. Yeah, it's risky moves. It's like bound to really bite me in the ass one of these days. Well, I know you can't say much. And we've talked a little bit, but how is it going so far? Are you, is it taking you back? to a crazy time. Yeah, some of it for me is like triggering and some is just really fun because I haven't been

so thrown into this kind of situation since obviously I was the Bachelorette and Katie is just so sweet and she kind of reminds me of myself back in that day. She's not as crazy though as you, is she? We'll see. She's starting to warm up a little bit. Okay. I know, but it's been so fun. It's been so fun.

It's been some really, really late nights and some very early morning. but it's been it's fun i mean it's so nice being back i'm in such a different place now with the whole franchise where it's it's just a blast to be a part of and tachia's here and it's been so fun to spend time with her and i feel like we have good banter between the two of us we've just been having a really good time oh yeah i could definitely see that yeah yeah it's been great but yeah i wanted to you know do a little just intro into what we're going to be doing each week because now obviously it won't wamp bachelor's over so each week i'm going to give everyone a little recap of what's just kind of going on in my life and the bubble life, maybe answer questions

or share submissions from the Vino's. Sometimes I'll have a special guest to join me at the end for a fun segment, like maybe my mom for some advice, maybe low for his lowest moments, all those kinds of fun things. Because I don't know, I'm really excited about these episodes. I think they're going to be really, really fun. Well, and I think what we've realized, too, reading comments is people love when you have people that you have in your personal life because you're a great interview, but then it's nice you get that on Tuesday for off the Vine. And then on Thursday, it's like, oh, it's like the real Caitlin with like the inside jokes and it's just like a different version. So I think it's really nice to have both. Yeah, it's a good mix. I love doing grape therapy. And I think it's

important for, you know, Vinos to keep me updated on their thoughts and anything they'd like covered on grape therapy because it isn't just an interview. You can do it in the Facebook group or text me on community. The number is, I think it's in the link tree on my bio. Yeah. Instagram, right? Yeah, exactly. Facebook community are also where I'll be asking questions, asking for confessions, all that juicy stuff. I've been really disappointed with people's confessions lately. Like sweet, innocent Bree, she's like, I had bedbugs twice. And I'm like, it wasn't even your bed. Come on.

It'd be weird if you didn't have bed bugs at one point in your life. Yeah. I'm like, really? That's an innocent little life you got there. Okay. Anyways, I'm So as we're kind of talking about, I think everybody knows by now that I'm currently hosting or whatever the heck I'm doing. And by hosting, I don't really know what it all means. I think we're just, I keep saying we're mentors, we're here support, but we're definitely hosting dates and like being fully involved. You know, Katie can't do it on her own. And it's cool to have girls here and said, you know, like we can make dildo and dick jokes with her. Chris Harrison couldn't do that.

No. But no. Actually, really quick question that I just thought of that. I haven't asked you yet. is you obviously, when you were the bachelorette, you had Chris and you've had that experience, but that's so true. Like, it would have been so different if you had two previous bachelorette's before. So, like, how do you think it's, like, really different?

I think, you know, women's intuition. I think women, especially when they're there to support each other, like having three women's intuition over one is powerful stuff. These poor guys. So I think, yeah, that's what I said. I'm telling you, when they saw us, it was like, uh-oh, because, yeah, we can, you know, we can keep her grounded. We can help her see some of the nastiness that's going on out there. We can, you know, just be there for support in every way we can.

And she can confide in us and we can have girl time. And I think it's just going to change the game. And I also think it'll be really fun for the audience to watch because we're definitely bringing humor. We're bringing lightheartedness. We're going to get, like, rid of a lot of the drama. I'm hoping, God, you know how it all works out, but it's, I think it's going to be really fun all around. Caitlin, that's what they need.

It's been really fun. I hope they, I hope they do this more often with me, of course. And Tasha is so fun too, too. But anyway, I'm probably saying too much already. Yeah, yeah, sorry. We digress. What I'm getting at is this is actually a dream job. I'm like, could you, like back in the day, I mean, this, I would have picked this as one of my

dream jobs. So, you know, pinch me, I guess. For sure. A small town, me is like. what the just Mrs. Chris Harrison. I think about previous jobs and I'm like, you know,

server nightmares are a real thing. Teaching spin classes. Like, I don't know. Just any kind of job I've had in my life. One time I was a mascot. It was really embarrassing. It was a low point. I've been a mascot too.

Got a hundred bucks out of it. Why would I do that? No, it was when I started Bouged and it was one of her clients. Remember TikTok? It was before TikTok was a thing. talk that I was that mascot oh my god wait I totally forgot because Aaron had asked you wait you got a hundred bucks yeah I was like ha ha she paid me a ha we were the same mascot I got a hundred dollars it really got me out of a couple jams it was great oh god I have to talk to

Aaron it's so funny I feel like I've worked my fair share of interesting jobs like I've really I used to be a go go dancer when I was 19 and I remember a guy I put a $5 bill at my foot, and I said, I'm sorry, sir, but I'm going to have to step down now. That's all I got. I'm going to try to find, like, people here need to see what the TikTok mask that's going to be and also get you, if you have a go-go dancer picture, and we're going to put it on your off-the-vine Instagram because people will die with the- That's a good idea. Didn't you wear like green tights?

I had to wear these, like, green tights with this big box. Yeah, yeah. And some guys at the football game started pushing me around because I was going out on the field with all the cheerleaders and the cheerleaders were like flirting with me thinking out some cute mascot under there and some guy pushed me into a crowd and then he said whatever they're paying you it's not enough and I was like yeah it's only hundred bucks asshole give me some money no I know I'm like slip me a slip me a 20 under you or something man we're a hot dog you're a little hungry little parched under your tube you don't mind having some wine

god I should have got drunk I should have got drunk before I did that This started swinging back. That was a missed opportunity. Well, that was in your heyday, your prime heydays of just, like, doing stupid shit. So I'm actually surprised you weren't drunk. That was one of those low points of, like, I had just gotten out of a relationship. I had no job, nowhere to live. I was like, staying on my friend's couch and had to be a mascot for $100 to make ends meet.

That. My God. Oh, I love thinking about those times. Anyways, we keep digressing. Now I'm hosting the f***achian. can I get a hell yeah thank you thank you I needed that now back to off the vine grape therapy

I also had to hear my vino's disastrous job stories embarrassing things that happened to them because I mean I'm kind of sick of telling all my dirt and not hearing any back so here's some gems for you okay Lee said once I was working at Macy's. I was told I needed to make more small talk. So I was ringing up this guy. He seemed a little older. He was buying leggings. They were from the junior's department. So I asked him if he was buying them for his daughter. And he got really offended and said he was buying them for his girlfriend. And then definitely made a point to

emphasize that she was very, very young. And this is why I don't make small talk, she said. She also said, which is really sweet. She said, you inspired me to pursue my dream job as a marriage and family therapist i'm in school working on that right now and i got accepted the day you won the mirror ball no way that's amazing my gosh heaven lee that's also a beautiful name but wow that's so cool congratulations well so amazing actually it's just crazy honestly galen let's take a second how many people you inspire it's just really amazing oh well i hope so that's like i mean having a podcast to talk about just my life and my my low points of being mascots and my high points of being for a bachelor's nation.

But you know that you made a lot of people feel good today. Yeah. And there's hope. No matter where you're at in life, there's hope for everybody. You heard it here. And of course, I don't, yeah, I don't think embarrassing workstories would be complete without something poop related. So here we go.

Okay. Alicia said her worst work moment was probably the time I shit my pants after trusting a fart. then too embarrassed to get up so I sat in in it for the next hour till I was done with work okay wait wait what are you she sat your poop for an hour did it not smell what I mean she trusted a fart it turned into poop and then she sat in it for an hour and I'm just wondering how in the world it didn't smell but I was going to say wouldn't it just keep getting worse and worse I feel like when something like that happens just do with it right away oh yeah that's tough that would be very uncomfy yeah but thank you for sharing yeah totally thank you for being so

brave to share and say your name i love it also marge left me freaking hanging over here okay marge said i was voice texting my boss when uh i first learned how to voice text and i didn't understand how critical it is to really enunciate she literally left out the juicy deeds she left me hanging she didn't tell me what she said marge i was like what march that's not how this works. You can't give me half of it. Marge. Yeah, Marge. I'm on the edge of my seat here. You need to get part two and then you can say it for next week's grape therapy. Yeah, for real. Gosh, I was like, what did you say? But also the story from Marge made me remember this hilarious post on Instagram where everyone shared their worst autocorrects in their work email. So I'm going to share

a few of those. Okay. I also love how she left you hanging and now you're leaving everyone else singing you're like oh i'll pick that one i know you want because i'm like this is going to put this is going put pressure on march totally i agree good call yeah there you go come march don't let us down so nicole accidentally signed a work email and said beast Nicole instead of best beast moe Nicole hey i think i'm going to sign off as beast cleo today it's confident i like the confidence um monica said I meant to say no problem and it auto-corrected to your problem

your problem not mine's on you this one's good Naomi said are you able to take an extra shit on Friday instead of shift have you ever said have you ever said I feel like Cleo's the classic like you mean to text

somebody but you text someone else and I'm like you didn't mean to send that to me it's never bad well so if it's bad like mean to me or anything but it was I'm trying to think one time I definitely when my dad was asked me what kind of groceries I wanted I said orgasmic instead of organic and that was pretty bad what did he say? Well I immediately auto cry yeah I immediately caught it and I said I said not something you want to text your dad because the funny thing is sometimes like I will text so quickly that I won't realize it so at least you're able to get yourself because imagine your poor dad just these

orgasm? He'd be like, oh, how do I answer this? I would die. Like today I was talking to Katie about dildos and I was like, oh, my poor dad's going to have to relive me being this like sex positive person on TV again, where he's like, here we go again. Oh, my, too good. Too good. Too good. Oh, gosh. Let's switch gears here. All right. We'll go to work mode. On another note, okay, I often call you the Burt to my Ernie, the peanut butter to my jam. You're also my business partner, my best friend, my right hand man, my everything. So let's talk some work things. Hopefully maybe nothing is as embarrassing as what you guys just shared, no offense.

But apparently my work with Clio, my work relationship with Clio is described as mullet, okay? It's business up front. We get shit done, but party in the back getting drunk on some spayed and sparrows, okay? When I saw that, I'm like, that is amazing, because it really does describe it so perfectly. It's perfect. We have a very mullet business relationship, and that's so fair. It's bang on. And I thought it would be fun to share a little bit more behind the scenes of our quote, unquote, working relationship and a little bit of our fun, loving, wild times relationship, too. Okay. Blown away with how many people are interested in learning more about the behind the scenes of my work.

life. So you guys can let me know on the OTBIG if you're into this segment. We're calling it business casual. We should also call it hashtag mallet. I think let's just change it. Mallet. Mollett. The segment is called Mollett. New name. It is like it is so hilarious because obviously what it is. We'll work together we think that it's kind of like the boring part and but yeah it's been so crazy this year seeing how many people actually want to dive into and it is like how do you do it all really and it's really inspirational to to see that you can like you just get shit done and so I think wait till I add a baby into the mix I'm going to be a real shit show or you're going to be like hyper like

organized and focus and I feel too like throughout the years like you're you just get stuff done even at home you're always organized so it's going to be yeah because i get anxiety if i don't get it done yeah it's either going to be a big shit show or really organized and you're going to drive jason crazy yes yeah no he'll love that organized katelyn would turn him on okay cleo it looks like uh we're going to let people in on our work life you know what this means right what well we'll probably need to divulge some of our inside secrets i know When we were talking about this segment, I'm like, oh, this is going to be interesting because, like, you said it before, you're not going to lie. But a lot of things just like take times and have their steps. And then when you get a microphone in your hand, you're like, yeah, but we're doing this. And I'm like, yeah, yeah. Okay, guys, let's go. But I love that you get excited. It's interesting. It's like, I guess it'll be nice to see what people want to see out of the show or potentially even ask questions about the business side. Because.

you know, we can, input will be nice for the statement. I know, like, what do they want me to share? Yeah. Yeah. I know. I forgot how long and crazy these filming days can be. I'm so obviously happy and honored and privileged to be here. But you might have to take the reins for a couple weeks. Okay. I got you. I got you. It's crazy. Well, it really has been a crazy year. Yeah. Like, starting from the beginning, like fast and furious with the new due website, which finally launched it. Looks so. freaking amazing. The response has been even more amazing than I thought. Oh, like, we are always as a team, a nervous wreck when we were, like, doing these things. And it turned out so, like, I'm just, it looks incredible. I'm so proud. And for sure, like, it obviously keeps getting put on the back burner because there's always so much going, but to finally launch it and with an edit that just people are loving was incredible. Hey, high five. It's so funny.

I'm like, Zoom 5. It's so funny how each launch, I'm like, this is getting to be a stupid joke that like each one is my favorite. Like, is there ever going to be one where I'm like, hate it? I guess not because we come up with them and love it every time. Yeah, I think it's interesting, too, to see how your taste change or like when you're picking like a theme, then it's like getting excited over the theme, which I think is one of the exciting things about due.

Like, I still get so excited too. I know. I love coming up with all the names and the fabrics and, like, seeing everyone get excited about it. And we also have the new Spade and Starro's website, which is coming soon. Yeah, just add that to the plate. I'm working on a bit of a... Yeah, just add that. A little refresh for off the vine as well, if you will, why not while we're at it? Let's do it all. Oh, my gosh. Why do you do that to ourselves? I don't, I don't know. Not to mention we're working on two really big projects for Spade and Sparrow's and do. And one of these announcements I decided right before this podcast to reveal on the podcast today. So I'm super excited about this one. You see, this is what I mean. This is what I mean. Like you just say it out on the podcast so I can't, I can't object.

Yeah. There's no stopping. I mean, you kind of do have the power to edit out if you want, but you're not going to. I'm not going to. We're going to keep this rolling. Yeah, thank you. Back to what I was saying. I should know by now.

I shouldn't get too comfortable. Because as soon as I feel like I'm just about to stay on top of things, I get the call that I might need to pack up my life for a couple, three months, had to, head to wherever we are right now and be a part of the new season of The Bachelorette. Well, yeah, and I know we talked a little bit, but just to give everyone a background here information, I was like, I get a call from Caitlin and we just had a call the day before thinking about everything that we need to do in the next four to six weeks, because as you guys, we'll see, there's been lots going on. And Caitlin's like, um, so, yeah, it looks like I'm going to be going to New Mexico to be a part of the season, The Bachelorette. And I'm like, oh, my God, that's so exciting. And she's like, yeah, but I'm like, yeah, I could tell. Like, what's going on? And she said, I have to leave in five days. And I'm like, you have got to be kidding me, because obviously knowing how it works when you weren't dancing with the stars, like it is just so many added layers for you. And it's so much

pressure and I was at cave like we need to try to get as much done as possible beforehand so we're like literally running around like chickens with their heads cut off and sweating bullets but it was exciting because I got to go to Nashville a couple weeks earlier than I was going to and it was so nice being the same city I'm like oh I wish we were we lived in the same city all the time but we got so much done but yeah it really was it was crazy it was so productive it was really productive but I feel like that's when we're good we both are like okay it's chaos let's just get everything done but we were sweating our tits off going around like crazy um it was a whirlwind too i forgot everything uh that i needed to pack i forgot my ethernet cable very key for podcasting

i forgot my toothbrush speaking of sweating my tits off i also forgot my favorite smith's natural deodorant scent which is actually devastating because did you have their new signature scent coconut pineapple right two things first of all that's the most hilarious saying i love it when you say it sweat my tits off and then the second thing is i actually have a confession what tell me so i do have that scent yeah but it's actually yours which is why you don't have I couldn't find it. No way. You have the coconut pineapple one.

That's the best. I know. And you were saying, I remember when you were filming the Schmitz up, you're like, oh, I don't have my favorite one, and it makes me feel calm and relaxed.

And I couldn't tell you, because I was like, this is panic mode right now, and I don't want you to be mad at me. But, you know, because the background, like I've also been looking to switch over to the natural deodorant and you know i know you're a big schmit guy so i'm a big

smit guy well i saw you had a bunch and then i you know i don't even remember if you remember you're like yeah yeah just take one and i totally forgot to tell you and it was the one that you were looking forward to having in new mexico oh my gosh i'm dying well you know we're close when we share deodorant i mean i would share anything with you except for a tampon but deodorant i would you well you know what we yeah that's that's where we are but also but i'm glad i converted you you totally did it took me a while but i feel like i'm here to stay and the fact that it actually does give you protection what was it for like 24 hours you said 24 hours oh my gosh but again sorry for taking your favorite scent um but needed a little deal it was a crazy trip and uh yeah

that's so funny i actually remember you using it too. I don't know you snuck in the old bag. You're listening to Off the Vine Race Therapy. What we did, we had a really good time in Nashville. We got shit done, including an interesting business meeting scheduled by Bailey that included a tarot reading card session. I know. I love the flare

that you add to our meetings. I knew you'd never done a tarot reading before and wanted to see if we are heading in the right direction business-wise, you know? Smart, very smart. I got to say that I really loved it. That was my favorite meeting. But it was really interesting because she obviously went through all the aspects,

different aspects of her lives. But when it came to the lifestyle section, I couldn't believe that we got two to three of the same cards, which was, if you remember, it was the moon and the chariot. Yeah, yeah, that's crazy. because we already knew that we're good at balance as business partners. But it was like reassuring when Alexander said that there's this perfect balance. Keep focusing on working together because there's something really big and it's coming. But I'm like, wait, it's already big.

We get to work together. We love what we do. We feel like we're already winning with both Vino's and the Scrudgy gang community. But, Leo, there is something pretty big that we haven't announced yet. This is such a natural segue. Okay. I mean, this is your news to share. It is very exciting. I pooped my pants a little when I heard this news because it's, it honestly is up there. Like, okay, I'm not, I can't wait any longer. Drum roll, please.

Okay. We've been working really hard to get spade and sparrows in retail since shipping costs are, I know, expensive. There's no way around it. And we got our first major retailer. spade and sparrows will be launching in walmart stores across california in may which is freaking insane because hopefully our california vinos will pull through and make it successful we are really counting on you californian vinos because then it'll get picked up across all other states walmart clio this is so crazy i couldn't believe it it's like you know this is like that's like the first retailer and they've just been such a great partner and like it's so exciting when someone like that takes a chance like our little speed and sparrows like

you know and it's so it really this could be a game changer and I know you like obviously the goal was to get it in as many retailers as possible but that takes time like the wine world is a beast right and very tricky so tricky and they they they want some Caitlin brisk you do realize that your picture is going to be on the end caps of all the Walmart in California. Yeah. Oh my gosh. This is, it's so wild. Like our little baby spade and sparrows is just going to the big leagues. We really, we're going to knock it out of the parks with the help of the vinos because they always come through for us. Oh, yeah. Really, it's going to be such an exciting year for spade and sparrows. And it's really interesting because actually this ties into

your third card. I don't know if you remember, but your third card that you got was the star in the lifestyle card. And she had said that that was a really rare. card. And I'm like, of course, Caitlin gets the star card. And then, but what she said is like, it's like that you just really have to reach for the stars and whatever goals you have, like, think even bigger. And that doesn't come around very often. I feel like you're so good at just like really putting it out there and having those big goals. And that's why you, guys, if you don't believe in manifestation,

if Caitlin hasn't convinced you that you should manifest, then just think twice. Think again. yeah it's it's real it's powerful would you call yourself a risk taker like i never really thought about it but like when you think about everything that's happened always yeah i always consider myself a risk taker i'm always fearing failure which means i'm doing the right thing every time i do something put something out start something new go do anything even if i feel comfortable in it i'm always still a little bit scared but that's why i'm like well i'm a risk taker and i have to do that because if you don't take those risks, then those things won't ever happen. Yeah, you just really throw yourself in it and you believe. And that is awesome. I really do believe. Yes. I really do believe.

I love that. And this is Parker. And you execute. I believe you execute. That's why we were. Yeah. And she said, you guys are the perfect balance. So I'm like, okay, I really love it. And she said lots of good things coming. So let's take this whole Zino gang on this journey with us. Yes. Just a couple of questions to close out this segment, what is something new this year that you've been doing that you've really been enjoying? Because I feel like there's been just so many new elements in all of the different businesses. Probably coming up with new products for due and finally diving into apparel, which is so fun, because I've been a bit scared. Like I said, anytime I do something new, I get scared, which is good. That means I'm doing something right.

But dip these little old toes, you know, into apparel because it seems way more daunting, but we're doing it. We're doing it and doing it and doing it well. But I don't, I mean, I don't want to say too much right now, but I just think everybody needs to get ready because something new and unique is coming up soon, which I'm really excited about. And I just, I like doing things differently

and doing them my way. So I don't know. Yeah, you always like to do things a bit different. I love the Caitlin spin on everything. The Caitlin spin. Oh, my gosh. Okay. So lastly, but very importantly,

I have something so exciting and something really fun to share with all my vinos. I'm in need of a new intro for the pot. I'm going to switch it up a bit and I need all of you because we're going to be launching this soon. But start getting your creative juices and the wine flowing so you can jump right in when it's announced. So essentially we will be replacing my current 20 second podcast intro with a 15 to 45 second intro clip created by one of you. But I will say I never want to take out breeze with wine. Lots of wine. Oh, no.

Because I feel like my intro, it's like not really matching up with where the podcast is going. So more details to come when the contest opens, but there are ultimately no rules around this, nothing specific. You need to say, like you just go with the flow. It just needs to be, well, I guess it needs to make sense as a new intro for my Off the Vine podcast. And it will all be done via TikTok, a jingle, no jingle, or just the wittiest opening podcast line of all time.

The winner will win. well bragging rides of course but that one person will also be invited for a guest segment with me on off the vine so stay tuned because we're launching this super soon this is so fun i'm so excited so fun and good luck today i just wish that we could see it like right now but i guess i'll have to be patient i know i don't i wish i could tell you guys everything but of course i cannot or i will get fired yeah save it save for the grape therapies later yeah we'll save it for the grape therapies later but these new grape therapies are going to be really fun and interactive and we'll have new guests, and it's just going to be quick and fun and make you guys smile and

laugh for 35 or so minutes. I'm in for it. Oh, well, thank you, honey. Love you. Okay, love you so much. And have a good day and we'll talk soon. Kate, sounds good. I'm Caitlin Bristow.
