Last week, Jeff Sessions visited two Mexican restaurants in Houston, one of which—El Tiempo Cantina—shared a photo of Sessions with an employee, saying it was an “honor” to serve him. Many Houston residents were upset that the restaurant would be honored to serve the man who’s said that the Trump administration’s…

Ben Schwartz is a busy guy. He’s giving cornerstone voice performances in two separate animated series, as Leonardo in Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Dewey in DuckTales—and, he’s quick to note, he’d be thrilled to play “any other blue iconic ’90s character.” Since letting that bon mot fly, he’s also…

Sektlaune means, depending on the German-English dictionary you consult, one of the following:

San Francisco’s Seven Stills Brewery And Distillery likes a good gimmick. They have an imperial red ale that’s made with “a shitload of Swedish Fish in the barrel.” Another pays tribute to, ah, Twins—the movie, not the baseball team. This whiskey collaboration is calls Four Legs Good and features a pup with angel…

You ever read something and think, man, someone better have gotten a really big raise out of this? This is one of those times.

In 2006, Lin Keitch’s ring was lost. It was given to her for her 40th birthday by her husband, Dave, an amethyst in the shape of a heart. Her fingers outgrew it, and so she gifted it to her daughter Sarah, then in her mid-20s. Sarah then lost the ring in the garden. (Fuckin’ kids.) But when does the carrot come in,…

No, it is not.

The reward for a Cleveland Browns win this season, if such an event should occur, is Bud Light helping make Cleveland sports fans slightly more insufferable.

Science! Smithsonian reports that archaeologists have found the oldest direct evidence of beer in some ancient clay cups. This discovery is courtesy of a new technique that can tell the difference between compounds in sunscreen and wine—a difficult challenge, apparently. Now those same scientists are trying to brew a…

We spend a fair amount of ink ’round these parts daydreaming about the apparent wonders of Aldi U.K. There’s affordable, award-winning whiskey! Color-changing gin! Booze delivery! Wine! Among its many far-away pleasures is its Wine Advent Calendar, but god bless us, every one, for that particular treat is now headed…

If when you think of Andy Samberg, you think, “Oh, right, he’s the ‘Dick In A Box’ guy,” congratulations, you are correctly remembering the ditty for which he won an Emmy. But if, by chance, that’s your most recent point-of-reference, hoo boy—there’s a whole world of delightful weird funny shit waiting for you,…

Back in the day, the governor of Oklahoma just loved eating crow meat, and because he was the governor of a whole state, he went ahead and founded the “Statehouse Crow Meat Lovers Association.” There are two ways to look at this. On the one hand, live your truth! Chase your passion! Embrace your dream! Eat that crow,…

In late June, a warehouse at the Barton 1792 distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky collapsed, sending 9,000 barrels of bourbon crashing to the ground. The cause is still unknown. In the days that followed, the situation seemed to get worse and worse. A partial collapse became a complete collapse, and another 9,000 barrels…

Amazon today announced the launch of grocery pickup at Whole Foods in select stores. Mashable reports that the program will start in stores in Sacramento, California, and Virginia Beach, Virginia, but will expand to other areas throughout the year—all part of a continuing quest to make it impossible for us to forget…

In its second season, The Bold Type ran with the things that worked well in its first, and course-corrected some things that didn’t. It did some things that are playful and some that are thoughtful. It leaned into its strengths and exercised winning restraint. And most admirably, it rarely did exactly the thing one…

John Prine! He’s been writing and playing country-folk music for almost half a century, creating indelible songs that have been cherished by listeners, covered by other artists, and have inspired other inspiring troubadours for decades. He’s a legend, and holy shit, we have something in common: John Prine, too, likes…

Netflix’s Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, a series in which Jerry Seinfeld and some comedians get in cars and then get coffee, has never really been about food. But they eat food (and buy rugs, and other stuff), too. Uproxx reports that now Seinfeld is sharing his thoughts on the spots visited on the show, and he’s…

A dog inadvertently started a small fire in Austin, Texas this week. The temptation here would be to say, “oh, bad dog,” save for two things. Item one: All dogs are good dogs. Item two: It’s because he or she was trying to get a pizza, and who among us has not started a teeny tiny fire in our haste to devour a pizza?
