About this listen

Tanner and Jerry ring in the new year with an episode dedicated to Champagne and the traditions that surround it. They trace the history of Champagne and how it came to be, including the irony of Dom Pérignon—who famously tried to prevent bubbles, not celebrate them. Then they walk through the right (and wrong) ways to open a bottle, from the classic cork to the dramatic saber, including a story of a celebration that didn’t go as planned.Next, it’s time for a “pop” quiz, testing what we’ve learned so far this year on Flavorphiles. The episode closes with a look at New Year’s traditions from around the world and the foods and drinks that help usher in good luck for the year ahead.
