Industry Night: Hot Seat & Happy Pours: Industry Night × When You Just Want a Glass of Wine
It’s hard when the mic turns on me—I’m wired to ask the questions. But today I’m in the hot seat for a special crossover: Industry Night × When You Just Want a Glass of Wine with Zena Polin & Renee Gentry. We’re recording on Historic 23rd Street at Beauty Champagne & Sugar Boutique, presented by the National Landing BID (cheers to a neighborhood that spans Crystal City, Pentagon City, and Potomac Yard and keeps raising the dining bar —> think Water Park vibes, new hits like Bar Colline, Bar Chinois on Crystal Drive, NiHao, Taqueria Xochi, Surreal, plus stalwarts like Beauty).We’re toasting with Barboursville—a Fiano and a Nebbiolo—and swapping wine “a-ha” moments, DMV dining stories, and a few confessions. I learn more about Zena & Renee’s journeys; they pry out mine. Glasses up & let’s go.Listen to the full episode here and watch it here.
