This week: Hillary Cole — former Air Force intelligence officer and author of Vineyards of War — on what wine and warfare have always had in common.Hilary spent ten years in intelligence (a Russian linguist reassigned to counterterrorism on 9/11) before a glass of Barolo rerouted her life into wine. Now a French wine scholar living in Albania, she joins Jon to talk about reading a wine the way she once read a battlespace: why Champagne became the drink of celebration in a region leveled by war every century, theKosovo full-circle moment that bookended her two careers, and why she teaches beginners structure and history instead of tasting notes — because “tasting notes can’t give youhumanity.”

New episodes Tuesday mornings.
