In this special solo edition of Five Questions, host Billy Galanko shares an important update on the future of the Vint Wine Podcast. As longtime listeners know, Billy recently transitioned out of Vint, and is in the process of acquiring full rights to the podcast catalog. Until that process is complete, production of new interviews is temporarily on pause.

In this short episode, Billy answers the five most common questions listeners have been asking, about the pause, the relaunch, the new name, upcoming guests, and even holiday travel plans.

Whether you listen to every full-length interview or you’re a Five Questions loyalist, this episode sets the stage for what’s ahead.

What You’ll Learn

• Why the podcast is temporarily paused
• When new episodes are expected to return (hint: January—pending final rights transfer)
• Details on the new podcast name inspired by Hugh Johnson
• How listeners can submit guest ideas during the break
• Where Billy is traveling this winter (Taiwan + Vietnam!) and what wine he hopes to find along the way
