Pay to Play is Killing Drinks Journalism

Adam and Zach discuss the scourge of "pay to play" journalism, where writers trade coverage for free shit, and the challenge of unscrupulous influencers in the drinks world, many of whom will promote anything that someone sends them in the mail. All that, plus the challenges of judging wine competitions and the wisdom of recording a controversial podcast after having had some drinks.
