Welcome to Shift Drink! Long hours on sore feet and wearied coworkers cramped side-by-side in the pursuit of perfection is typical in the service industry. But it isn’t until the final diner has gone and the last tab is closed; when there are no more pots to scrub or glasses to polish; that’s when the first shift drinks are poured and the stories start to flow. Every week, Eddie Kim and Mathew Ramsey will share a shift drink and swap war stories from behind the line with chefs, bartenders, bakers, brewers, and anyone who touches this all-encompassing industry. Un-edited, no-holds-bar, and personal, these brief moments bleed into life stories, past and future aspirations, philosophy, life lessons and every shot in between.
This show records and broadcasts LIVE on Full Service Radio from the lobby of the LINE DC in Adams Morgan, Washington DC.

This week, we round out the season (and year!) with a clarion of D.C.’s wine community — Felicia Colbert — Wine Director at A Rake’s Progress. We discuss navigating to the peak of the wine world while “mastering” one’s destiny, the added baggage of intersectionality in hospitality, and wine as a field guide to sociology. Alexya dons her graduation cap, Eddie squeezes into his cake fairy tights, and Mathew hulks out of his apron. But we all agree — Parents just don’t understand.
