Episode 101 – Sharing Wine & Gossip with Jessica Yañez of the Wine & Chisme Podcast

In this weeks episode, Shelley and Phil sit down with Jessica Yañez, the person who indirectly pushed us into starting the Wine Time Fridays podcast! Jessica, and her Wine & Chisme Podcast, is about 2 1/2 months ahead of us, on the podcast journey, and we thought it was about time we bring her on as a guest to thank her for the push.  Jessica brings great energy and a wonderful perspective about wine with a vibrant latine flavor. We strongly encourage you to check out her podcast! What a great start to our next 100 episodes! #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing #SMMW22 #FakeItTillYouAREit #EasterEgg
