About The Tasting Room
Tom Leykis knows men. He knows that somewhere between death and taxes, men need to have a little fun. And for the millions of men who believe the harder you work, the harder you play he created The Tasting Room with Tom Leykis.
The first of its kind, The Tasting Room is a lifestyle themed program for men with a taste for the finer things in life. From fine wine, high-end spirits, & craft brews to first-rate dining & premium cigars, Leykis covers it all in this weekly two-hour, on-air ride through every man's wish list.
Leykis has proven to be a huge ratings draw with churning discussions that keep Americans listening every day on The Tom Leykis Show. His opinions are thought provoking and his unconventional perspective on dating, relationships and politics have made him one of America's top radio personalities.

Wine, not whining.
Tom Leykis, the chauvinist on KLSX, is newly focused on cabernets.
By Chris Rubin, special to the Times.
What comes to mind first when you hear the name Tom Leykis? Combative radio talk show host? Misogynist? Oenophile?
Leykis, who has been on the air in Los Angeles since 1988, may lure listeners who would seem to prefer Bud to Bordeaux, Corona to Cornas. But not Leykis: While he may be best known for exhorting female fans to show off their attributes on "Flash Fridays," turns out he's more likely to spend quiet time at home with friends enjoying "Syrah Saturdays." He not only knows wine, he has a sizable collection.
