Shaken, Stirred & Spilling the Tea with Our Guest Bartender, Mitch
This week, Katie and Meko are shaking things up—literally! They’re joined by their favorite Midland bartender Mitch, who’s mixing up three killer cocktails while spilling all the industry secrets. From what makes a great bartender to bartender red flags, he’s giving the inside scoop on what to order, what not to order, and the drinks every home mixologist should master.
Then, the real tea—Love Is Blind. Not only did Mitch actually watch before coming on the pod (true commitment), but he also agrees—Katie & Meko would make WAY better hosts. (Petition pending.) And, of course, the Blake & Justin saga makes its way into the convo (because we simply can’t let it go).
By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly how to order the best drinks, what bartenders really think about your order, and why we’ll never trust a cocktail, that’s all hype.
Cheers, and sip responsibly!

We’re revisiting the very first episode while on holiday break. The early opinions, instant chemistry, and conversations that set the tone from culture and identity to The Idea of You and dating younger men. New here? This is where it all starts.

Weekend catch-ups, museum takes, and real talk on avoiding holiday burnout, surviving Thanksgiving prep, and friendships that last. Plus, a Biased Opinion you don’t want to miss. Cheers to holiday chaos.

Katie & Meko go out loud with pop culture and headlines, recap the biggest moments of the year, and share what they’re manifesting (and leaving behind) for 2026. Happy holidays, see you next year.
