Hillary B Smith, dear friend, co-producer, co-star and fellow Imbiber, and I would sit on the stoop at the end of each workday and go over everything that worked and didn’t work and then how we could do better the next day. Of course, we did this while enjoying a libation. Soon we were literally rolling around on the ground laughing our arses off. Someone suggested we should do a show and we thought…OK! – Crystal Chappell LOGLINE Doing it “Stoop-ed” Simple #CookDrinkLaugh DISTRIBUTION
