This week on Wine Thirty, Andrew and Lindsey Evans are back with a casual catch-up episode—pouring a glass of La Czar Zinfandel and diving into everything from global headlines to reality TV chaos.

They kick things off with a check-in on life lately—what’s been going on behind the scenes, what they’ve been watching, and how they’re feeling heading into this season of life.

Then, they get into a heavier conversation about current events in Iran, sharing thoughts, reactions, and how they’re processing what’s unfolding globally.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Wine Thirty without some pop culture—so they break down the drama surrounding Taylor Frankie Paul and the shocking cancellation of her season of The Bachelorette just days before it was set to premiere. The network pulled the already-filmed season after a resurfaced domestic violence incident video sparked major backlash and an ongoing investigation .

Andrew and Lindsey debate the big question: what should ABC do with all that footage? Scrap it forever? Edit it? Release it? They explore the ethical, business, and entertainment angles—and, of course, share some hot takes.

As always, it’s a mix of thoughtful conversation, unfiltered opinions, and easy, at-home vibes.
