From the article:
Anne Heche "drank vodka" with "wine chasers" during a "Better Together" podcast recording with co-host Heather Duffy, which was posted hours before the fiery collision Heche reportedly caused on Friday when she crashed her Mini Cooper into a home in Mar Vista, California. The Apple podcast was published on Friday and then removed from the platform. It's unclear when the episode was taped.
Bolded by me.
I believe it was mentioned earlier that the podcast had been prerecorded and had been teased prior to it being published.
ETA, it certainly does speak to an unhealthy relationship with alcohol but that seems to be fairly common with certain mental health issues.
