Background: Take a break from the weekend shopping frenzy for a “holiday happy hour” juicy book chat and wine tasting hosted by Lisa Mattson, a Kansas native turned California wine maven and author of The Exes in My iPod: A Playlist of the Men Who Rocked Me to Wine Country. This lively Q&A discussion between Mattson and Lara Hale, chief editor of KC Magazine and ThisisKC.com, is sure to entertain with frank and funny banter about everything from bad sex to best Syrahs.

About the Book: Kansas native and wine media veteran Lisa Kermashek Mattson has released The Exes in My iPod: A Playlist of the Men Who Rocked Me to Wine Country, a novel that cleverly harnesses the emotion of music-triggered memories through audio speakers on mobile devices. Using a collection of ex-boyfriends’ songs, the book follows the dating disasters and pipe dreams of Kansas transplant Harley Aberle, a redneck waitress from the Midwest who blossoms into a refined wine maven during her bewildering struggle to learn the difference between sex and love and the power of self-respect.

About Cellar Rat Wine Merchants: Cellar Rat Wine Merchants was founded in October of 2005 over a handshake and a glass (or several) of Montrachet, and opened its doors in August of 2006. The idea came from owner Kevin Hodge’s shared desire with his co-founders to open a smaller boutique wine shop that focused on selection, service and most importantly, quality.
