The Tipsy Exchange — Society & Culture
The Tipsy Exchange

The Tipsy Exchange is a comedy podcast hosted by besties Berly and LA, two self-proclaimed ’80s babies who pour a drink, raise a toast, and talk about whatever’s got them hooked. One week it’s true crime and history’s strangest mysteries. The next, it’s haunted hotels, UFOs, pop culture, and deep dives into the movies and TV shows we grew up on. Every episode kicks off with a toast and runs on tangents, inside jokes, and a genuinely alarming number of sidebars. It all depends on the tipsy level.

Listening to The Tipsy Exchange is like pulling up a chair at happy hour with your funniest friends. We finish each other’s sentences, call each other out, mispronounce everything with confidence, and thirst over Pedro Pascal with zero shame. We don’t claim to be experts (though we do bring some on for our Ask the Expert episodes), but we do our research, we have a good time, and we’ll always tell you what we really think.

Hang out with us! Leave us a rating and review on your favorite podcast app. It really does help new listeners find the show, and we read every one. And remember to follow the show!

Please drink responsibly.

WandaVision Theory: How Marvel's 2021 Slate Could Break the MCU Multiverse | The Tipsy Exchange Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

Grab your comic books and a day drink, because we're geeking out. Berly and LA start with their '90s crushes (boy bands for one of us, a cartoon Cajun mutant for the other). Then they dive into everything Marvel has lined up for 2021, including WandaVision, Black Widow, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Eternals, and the next Spider-Man movie.

The casting rumors for that Spider-Man movie are getting weird. Returning villains from other Spider-Man franchises? Other Peter Parkers? LA has questions. Luckily, Berly has a theory. It pulls from classic Scarlet Witch comic storylines, Into the Spider-Verse, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and it might just explain everything. Or she's slightly beyond tipsy and winging it. Could be both.

Along the way, you'll hear the great MCU rewatch debate (release order or chronological?) and a Mandalorian helmet reveal as experienced by Berly's mom. There's also a campaign to get James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender back in the MCU, preferably in very tight pants. Fair warning: there is a lot of thirsting in this episode. We apologize for nothing.

This week's toast: Reddit user Dysthanasiak gives us: "Here's to those who've seen us at our best and seen us at our worst, and can't tell the difference." Cheers!

Spoiler warning: This episode includes comic book storylines and the Season 1 finale of The Mandalorian. Proceed accordingly.

Tell us what you think! Does Berly's theory have legs? (James McAvoy legs, even?) Comic book fans, we want to hear from you. If you know these storylines better than we do, set us straight. Kindly, please. Leave a comment with your own MCU theories, and if you enjoyed the geekery, please leave a rating and review on your favorite podcast app. It really helps new listeners find the show.

20 Events of 2020 You Might Have Missed: Tiger King, UFOs, Mr. Peanut & More | The Tipsy Exchange Dec 29, 2020

Show notes

2020 was a dumpster fire, and the news cycle moved so fast that some truly bonkers stories were gone in a day. So Berly and LA pour one more drink and count down 20 events of 2020 that may have slipped off your radar. And a few they just really want to talk about again.

A high school intern who made NASA look lazy. A beloved brand mascot's heroic sacrifice. The Pentagon basically shrugging at UFOs, and somehow nobody cared. The Zodiac Killer's cipher, a toilet paper crisis the hosts still can't explain, and a candle from Goop that we will not describe here. Plus Carole Baskin's questionable Dancing with the Stars song choice, Vin Diesel's pop star era, a lime-green puppy named after an Avenger, and one very accidental Chris Evans upload (America's… well, you'll hear).

The hosts also save their favorite stories for last, including a real-life treasure hunt that finally had an ending. Along the way you'll get an unsolicited bidet endorsement, a debate over whether Subway bread is actually cake, and a strong recommendation for your next binge-watch. This episode also has an unexpected running theme of poop. We're not proud of it.

This week's toast: Reddit user Defiant Canadian gives us: "Here's to staying positive and testing negative." Cheers!

Tell us what you think! Which 2020 story did you totally miss? Did you fall for the broom challenge too? (Berly did.) And if you know anything more about those mystery monoliths, please tell us, because we have questions. Leave a comment, and if we helped you laugh at 2020 for once, please leave a rating and review on your favorite podcast app. It really helps new listeners find the show.

Who Is Krampus? Santa's Demonic Sidekick, Krampus Night & the 2015 Krampus Movie | The Tipsy Exchange Dec 15, 2020

Show notes

Santa Claus is coming to town, but he's not traveling alone. In the very first episode of The Tipsy Exchange, Berly and LA raise a glass and ask: who is Krampus?

The half-goat, half-demon of Central European Christmas folklore has a surprisingly messy history. It involves the church, a government ban, and Krampus Night (Krampusnacht), which is apparently a party. Berly digs into where Santa's dark companion came from and why he refuses to go away. LA reacts to some vintage Krampus Christmas cards that are way more disturbing than you'd expect. The hosts also get into Bellsnickel's appearance in The Office, the 2015 Krampus horror movie with Adam Scott and Toni Collette, and why Christmas might be the perfect season for horror.

Then things go completely off the rails. Just what exactly is Santa's relationship with Krampus? And what does any of this have to do with goat cheese? You'll have to listen to find out.

Rookie alert: This is our first episode EVER. We're brand-new podcasters, so please be patient with us. If Berly sounds a little far away, that's because she may have forgotten to plug in her microphone. We're learning, we're tipsy, and we promise the audio gets better from here.

This week's toast: Reddit user Phoenix V8 gives us: "A toast to those who wish me well, and all the rest can go to hell." Cheers!

Tell us what you think! Were you on the naughty list this year? Would you try Krampus cheese? Leave a comment and let us know. If you laughed even once, or if you just feel sorry for our rookie selves, please leave a rating and review on your favorite podcast app. It really helps new listeners find the show.

Please drink responsibly.
