FM #1595 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1595 in the series.
This session shares my conversation with George Swartz on Thursday, November 20, 2025 in the Pour Richard’s Wine & Provisions store.
We talk about
George’s road to this role
Wine tasting events, usually 6-8 tables, 6 wines each to sample before purchase (or not)
Floral arrangements, book club, and yoga are some events paired with wine testing
Pop up events bringing local crafts as well as cheese & prepared foods, charcuterie boards, etc.
The recording runs 32 minutes, so let’s listen in.
