The long hiatus is over! The podcast is back, baby! I contemplated bringing back the pod back for a second season — I worried I wouldn’t have capacity for it or maybe I should wait and find a producer, but I realize my favorite projects are the ones I don’t think too hard about and just dive right in.So here it is: episode 1, an intro.

Andy and Issamu of Wonderwerk are wine making legends in my eyes. Their wine journey kind of started at rave parties in LA. Two friends from the East Coast, making natural wine in California in really cool, elegant and unexpected ways. You may know them from their iconic Free Your Mind wine or other disco-inspired bottles, or perhaps you learned about them through our collaboration

Welcome to Podcast Friday! We made it!Today’s episode of Mas Vino Please is a conversation with Brock Larsson, co-founder of Fiky Fiky Wine.
