Welcome back to another season of the W&VC. We’ve been gone a longtime and we are very excited to be back listening, drinking, and laughing with each other again. There are some changes to the format of the show and a few new members will join us throughout the season, but we’re still the Wine & Vinyl Club as you know and love us.
Every episode the podcast has an accompanying Spotify Playlist. Below is a link to 30 tracks made from a selection of tunes from this episode’s album, plus additional artists we think you might like if you enjoyed listening to this album.

To match Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Chris brings a $21 2019 Cielo e Terra De Conti Appassimento IGT Organic, from Puglia in Italy. https://cieloeterravini.com/en/
David brings the value wine for this episode, which is the $28 Little Giant Free Grenache (LGF). Little Giant is a very successful Aussie wine brand from Fourth Wave. https://www.fourthwavewine.com.au/littlegiantswine-home
WINE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:
Chris and Christian suggest looking for a European Pinot Noir (Spatburgunder) to get that earthiness David was hoping for or try a more expensive Australian or NZ Pinot.
The Appassimento should be reasonably available or you could try two other Italian varieties Valpolicella or Amarone (they can be quite sweet).

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
