Tuesday, 25 March, 2025
Get ready to pop the cork because we're diving into the world of wine in a totally fresh way! Forrest Kelly chats with Jeff Gillis, the mastermind behind The Wine Likes App, where the goal is to make wine tasting more social and, let’s be real, way more fun. We get the inside scoop on how the app uses quirky questions—like whether you prefer salt on your fries—to match you with wines you might not know you’d love. Jeff spills the tea on why they’re ditching the AI and algorithms, championing good ol’ human interaction instead. So, whether you're a wine newbie or a seasoned sommelier, this convo is packed with tips, laughs, and the kind of wine wisdom that’ll have you saying, “Cheers!” in no time.Your Host: Forrest Kelly is an experienced Radio/TV broadcaster who has interviewed some of Hollywood’s biggest celebrities, from Garth Brooks to Kevin Costner. A lover of wine who is fascinated by the science behind it.Voted One of The Best Travel, Top 5 Minute, and Top Wine Podcasts.Takeaways: The Wine Likes App is all about enhancing your wine experience through personalized tasting profiles, making wine exploration feel like a fun game rather than a chore. Jeff Gillis emphasizes that drinking wine should be about personal preference, so if you love red with fish, who cares about the rules?! The app proudly avoids AI and algorithms, focusing instead on genuine user interactions and real wine enthusiasts sharing their insights, which is quite refreshing! With a unique grape icon system, users can easily identify sommeliers and winemakers, promoting transparency and trust within the wine community. The creators of the app believe that everyone, whether a novice or expert, should feel comfortable sharing their wine adventures and asking questions without any judgment. By shifting focus from traditional social media to engaging games, The Wine Likes App aims to make discovering new wines a fun and social experience rather than just scrolling through posts.
