If you love travel and you love wine, this episode is for you. I’m joined by my client Nick Elliott, host of Pour & Explore, a podcast all about wine, food, and travel. Nick is a certified sommelier, classically trained chef, and world traveler who believes wine should be fun and approachable—not intimidating or snobby.
In this conversation, Nick shares how he blends his passions into a podcast that’s both educational and entertaining. We talk about his journey from hosting live webinars to podcasting, the creative ways he engages his listeners with guides and resources, and how he uses his podcast to grow The Wine Guy brand.
You’ll hear:
Why Nick created Pour & Explore and how he keeps the content fresh
How he chooses guests and balances solo vs. interview episodes
Creative ways to repurpose podcast content into lead magnets
Why making wine and food approachable matters more than rules
Fun behind-the-scenes stories from Nick’s travels and meals around the world
