Reviews
Great conversation!
Being a guest on the Liquor Talk Podcast was a true pleasure. Victor is a grounded, present, and genuinely skilled host who knows how to create conversations that flow naturally while still going deep. He asks thoughtful questions, listens with real attention, and gives his guests the space to fully express themselves. The conversation felt easy, honest, and meaningful—which says everything about the energy he brings as a host. You can tell he truly cares about the conversation—not just the content, but the human being behind it. If you’re looking for a podcast that feels real, relaxed, and rooted in authentic dialogue, Liquor Talk delivers. I genuinely appreciated the experience.

This is the podcast for the Entrepreneurs!!
I found myself listening to their episodes because I promise you I just spoke with my friends about a few of their topics! As an entrepreneur I appreciate what they shared because these are everyday conversations that entrepreneurs have amongst ourselves. Running a business is not for the weak! Definitely needed to hear these conversations as a reminder. Thank you ladies!

Listening to these two keeps you informed and laughing
I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast! I’m not sure if they are in real life best friends or just have genuine great energy! They are funny with their quick slick remarks and jabs at each other are funny. They have had some really good guests. I’ve learned so much from a few episodes… so much culture and pride. Really enjoyed listening to two men talk about great topics with wonderful guests! Definitely recommend listening 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
She always keeps me posted!
I don’t have time in the day to see all the latest entertainment news, or even click onto social media,but I definitely have to say this podcast keeps me in the know! I love how she gets right to the nitty gritty of the story and never leaves me hanging! Definitely appreciate her blow by blow updates and now when someone asks me did I hear… I’m so excited to join the conversation because now I’m up to speed with all that’s the buzz.
Love this podcast!
As a 50+ woman I can absolutely appreciate this podcast. So inspiring and informative. Her voice is so calming and I found myself drawn into every single word. This self love journey at this age is so special and I feel like I have found my tribe listening to her stories and sharing her journey.
