We teamed up with the folks at the Wine Enthusiast Podcast to chat about all things fairy wine, fairy food, the trope of “don’t eat the fairy food”, as well as how the tropes are being utilized in modern fantasy and romantasy! Grab a glass of wine (that didn’t appear in the middle of a ring of mushrooms, please!) and dive in with us.

Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of blood, kidnapping, death, sexual content, implied cannibalism, violence, and death.
