Episode 341: Popping Bottles with Ariel Arce & The Long Distance with Beshken

We pop open a bottle for this all NYC episode. Up first, sommelier and restaurateur Ariel Arce epitomizes the notion of turning passion into action, and sharing that passion with the world. Her love of pouring wine--especially Champagne--and collecting vinyl has led her to open two fun and popular jewel box spots, Air's Champagne Parlor and Tokyo Record Bar. Inspiring Ariel at young age were her merrymaking parents and their dinner parties. We learn more about those soirees from Ariel's dad who joins us as well. Twenty-one-year-old Beshken began his musical life in his native Los Angeles as a jazz guitarist. DJ gigs brought him into the world of dance music, and now living in Brooklyn he's honed a distinct electronic sound infused with jazz and indie rock. Beshken's latest EP is Time Is The Longest Distance Between Two People, and he stops by for a live in-studio performance.
