Vino & Convo w/Fletch & Couch

By: Howard R. Fletcher
  • Summary

  • Vino and Convo is a re-watch podcast with the mission to analyze media, sports, and politics while sharing a bottle of wine or craft beer from the many producers in our mid-Atlantic home. To start, we are going to re-watch The HBO classic original series The Wire. Actually, in Fletch’s case it is a re-watch. Couch is experiencing the show for the very first time. We are analyzing all 5 seasons, 60 episodes, and think it should give us plenty to chew on as we chop it up. And, the best part is that we will be doing this while enjoying wine or craft beer that has been created by our local artisans in the Washington DC metropolitan area – also known as the DMV.

  • Prologue: The (Almost) First Episode (S01/E0.5)
    Jun 8 2020

    Welcome to the very first episode of Vino & Convo with Fletch & Couch. In this episode, we (Howard & Aaron) will give you an overview of their podcast, what we hope to accomplish, and why we chose to start it off with an examination of HBO’s The Wire. 

    The mission of the show is to discuss media, sports, and politics while sharing a bottle of wine from the DMV.  We will also mix in a craft brew here and there, and maybe even a distilled spirit. We want to shine a light on the quality beverages our winemakers, craft brewers and distillers are producing here in the Washington Metropolitan Area.

    The Episode’s Wine:

    Slate 5 produced by Ed Boyce and Sarah O’Herron, owners and winemakers of Black Ankle Vineyards in Mt. Airy, Maryland – in Frederick County, MD
