#472 - Wine Time Fridays (Patreon)

While the rest of us were locked indoors, Boris Johnson and his staff were enjoying lockdown-era parties. The ensuing scandal helped topple his premiership. We discuss the new TV movie PARTYGATE (2023), and reflect on how the former British Prime Minister failed to "democratize the hedonism." PLUS: We find a choice bit of forgotten Alexandra Pelosi content from the archives.
