About Podcast
Join Michael and Alexandra Foley each week as they look at a feast day from that week's calendar, discuss that saint's life, and mix a cocktail appropriate for remembering and celebrating that saint, all while mixing in plenty of fun and good humor.
Drinking with the Saints is a concoction that both sinner and saint will savor.
