Where office hours meet after hours.

The Wine Down Network is where academia loosens its tie and pours a drink (or three). From Wine Down with Jenn & Beth, a mix of eclectic music and unscripted conversations on life, (un)balance, and everything in between; to Lit Review, the saucy, spicy side of trivia—we offer content that’s smart, strange, and unfiltered.

Whether you’re winding down or staying up, there’s always something worth sipping on.

Peer-review the
wine list

Part curated chaos, part couch session without the co-pay — unfiltered thoughts, fermented vibes, syllabus-optional.

OFFICE HOURS
Mondays, 6-8p PST | 89.3 KUOI Moscow or kuoi.org

Trivia's drunk history

Trivia is neat. History is chaos. Lit Review explores the questions you thought you knew, chasing the skeletons, scandals, and side stories that trivia night politely skips. Hosted by your favorite guest lecturers, Jenn and Beth—it’s history with wine, humor with spice, and a literature review you’ll actually want to hear.

Don’t forget to stay thirsty… for knowledge!

your hosts

Pro-knowledge, anti-authority, aggressively overeducated. Beth holds four degrees and a grudge against time. Founder of a podcast network built on wine and burnout. Unwinds to scary stories, spin, and Stardew.

Controlled by no creature on this earth, except for their dogs.

Beth Ropski, PhD

Bringing a unique blend of creativity and curiosity to the show, and holding degrees in both art and science, Jenn has a deep interest in the space where ideas intersect. Fascinated by the complexity of the human experience, she loves diving into free-form conversations that challenge assumptions, explore new perspectives, and spark discovery. Whether unpacking big questions or following unexpected tangents, Jenn approaches every topic with an open mind and a genuine passion for learning.

Jenn Wilcox, MS
