In this episode of Sasso’s Out, Frank and Christina head to the heart of Hammonton, New Jersey (yep, the blueberry capital of the world!) and set up shop at the stylish Blue Rascal Distillery. Join them, and the ever-controversial Mike Haelig—General Manager of The Lobby Club in Trenton, NJ —for laughs, chaos, and a spirited dive into what makes this town and its local spirits so special.

The Sasso's sit down with Clint Beyers and Ryan Carpenter from Blue Rascal Distillery to talk all things distilling: from blueberries in gin to why you can’t legally make Scotch in the U.S.

Along the way, they touch on Mike’s marathon journey, vodka snobbery, party plans, and how Ryan went from liquor store stockroom to master distiller.

This episode is equal parts boozy education, hometown pride, and hilarious sidetracks. Whether you love them, hate them, or just came for the gin, there’s a seat at the table for you.

Featuring:

• Mike Haelig – The Lobby Club

• Clint & Ryan – Blue Rascal Distillery

• Special shoutout to Cole from Allied Beverage

• A distillery born two days before COVID!

Pull up a chair, pour a glass, and let's get into it.

In this flavor-packed pilot episode with the Sasso's, Christina, fan of chaos, and Frank, lover of structure—hit the road to Selma, North Carolina for a recording session "in the wild" at JR Cigars.

First Stop: Kicking off their journey with a caffeine-fueled stop at Noir Bakery & Coffee Company in North East, MD, Frank sips the best Americano of his life, while Christina dives into a lotus drink, bourbon dreams in tow.

Rest Stop: Frank is thoroughly betrayed by an automatic toilet at a rest stop and can’t quite grasp the fact why rest stop toilets aren’t adjusted so that they don’t act like a bidet.

Last Stop: Things get smokier at 10 AM as they fire up cigars inside JR Cigars’ location at 67 Jr Rd in Selma, NC. The Sasso's sit down with Cameron Emory, a Navy vet and resident cigar sage, who helps the Sasso's make some wise picks and shares stories from both behind the counter and life on the water.

It’s a little chaos, a lot of class, and a load of laughs—Welcome to Sasso’s Out.

It’s the end of an era!

In the final episode of Trenton Waves, Frank and Christina Sasso sit down with longtime friend and former New Pod City president, Will Foskey for one last wave. With glasses raised—Bardstown Bourbon for Christina and Will and a pour of Dalmore Scotch for Frank—they reminisce about the journey through 200 unforgettable episodes.

From the heartbeat of Trenton’s culture to unforgettable guests, laughs, lessons, and local legends, no memory is left untouched. And just when you think it’s goodbye for good, the Sassos drop a big announcement: Trenton Waves may be wrapping, but they’re not going anywhere (pun intended). Get ready for their next adventure—Sasso’s Out!, a brand new travel show with the same heart, humor, and hometown spirit.

Cheers to the past, and here’s to Sasso's Out!
