An Afternoon with George Kassianos & Chile's Cono Sur Wines

Hard At Work
For those of you who are out of the loop, I have turned to radio-broadcasting in an attempt to jump-start my flailing career as a [fill in the blank]. For about two months now, I have been hosting a show called "On The Panamerican Highway" on MYCYradio dedicated to all-things Latin America.

We also held a live wine tasting of Chile's Cono Sur's range of budget wines. I want to thank George Kassianos for his invaluable knowledge, Photos Photiades Distributors for providing us with the wines, and the dope Cyprus Community Media Center staff and The Wife, Ph.D., for partaking in our raucous tasting. If you're interested, the recordings of the hour-plus-long show can be found below. Fast-forward to minute 7:00 of Part 1 to get started.
