With Kaz fishing in Loreto Bay, Randy stuffs in some interviews today, one from mid-June with Alice Feiring talking of her book, her LA Times article, and her upcoming keynote at the Wine Bloggers Conference in October. The other is a set of interviews that Kaz and Randy did at the Wine Industry Technology Symposium in Napa in mid-July. It’s a mid-month mid-tacular!

Wine Biz Radio launches its first (and almost certainly not its last) pre-recorded-but-still-interactive shows, leveraging the puzzling but versatile Talkshoe platform. Listen up as Kaz and Randy enjoy a slow start, but then join in lively conversation from across “The Pond” with Robert McIntosh of The Wine Conversation and Thirst for Rioja (in the UK). They discuss the European Wine Bloggers Conference coming this August, and his work promoting Rioja wines in his country.
It’s a brave new world for Wine Biz Radio, enjoy!
(Thanks to Sonadora of Wannabe Wino for the title!)
Kaz and Randy do musical microphones as they invite Jeff “El Jefe” Stai of Twisted Oak Winery and Jill “Budo Kun’s Keeper” Bernheimer of Domaine547.com into the studio for a fine chat. Agent Red calls in to promote their latest deal, and Brad Cooper tries desperately to phone in via Skype. Listener questions coming in via Twitter are welcome as always, and the answers are free (so you get what you pay for!) Listen up, friends!

Better late than never!
This month’s theme is “Brought to you by the letter ‘S’,” (thanks to Grape Juice for hosting this month’s WBW) and Kaz and Randy don’t disappoint! Follow along as they taste their way through a 2003 St. Francis Sonoma County Syrah. They both give it high marks, and figure they found four S’s in the wine, hence “quadruple word score”! All that, and they only go off on a few tangents!
Tom Wark comes calling to sit with Kaz and Randy to discuss his debate with WSWA director Craig Wolf. They move on to “natural wine” and upcoming summer and fall wine conferences, all mixed with the usual fun and frivolity you’ve come to expect!
Mentioned in this episode:
Kaz coins (or rather, ‘koins’) a new word for web links, and Wine Biz Radio has it’s craziest and most interactive show ever, and Kaz and Randy get to talk to a lot of cool folks.
It’s a record for a one-hour call-in talk show in Sonoma! And it’s a top ten Wine Biz Radio episode!
