Franklin TV: MIAA - Meet the talented student athletes
by Pete Fasciano, Executive Director 06/14/2026

Last week we were back in the studio interviewing some amazing student athletes with the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association – the MIAA

It’s always an inspiring session; listening to these students share their experiences. They brilliantly personify the MIAA’s mission “Growing Courageous Leaders.”

If you’ve ever had doubts or misgivings about this latest generation –find comfort in the MIAA’s ongoing series “Winning Ways”. It’s definitely must-see TV.

And – as always –
Thank you for watching.

The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW): Episode 317 - Tariffs, Triumphs, and the Supreme Court: A Conversation with Victor Owen Schwartz (audio)

Hosts Kim Simone and Mark Lenzi exploring all things wine with you!

Tariffs, Triumphs, and the Supreme Court: A Conversation with Victor Owen Schwartz

In this landmark episode of The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW), hosts Kim and Mark sit down with a true titan of the industry and a recent headline-maker: Victor Owen Schwartz.

As the founder and president of VOS Selections, a premier New York-based importer and distributor, Victor shares the incredible journey of his career—one that started not with a vineyard, but with a bold letter to the legendary British wine expert Steven Spurrier.

We dive deep into the mechanics of the industry, the complexities of the Three-Tier System, and the realities of wine taxes. However, the conversation takes a historic turn as we discuss Victor's role as the plaintiff in the 2025 Supreme Court case, Schwartz vs. Trump.

In This Episode, We Discuss:
The Spark: How a single letter to Steven Spurrier launched a lifelong career.
Industry Insights: A masterclass on importing, distributing, and navigating the Three-Tier System.
The Legal Battle: The inside story of the Supreme Court case that shook the trade.
The Win: Detailed analysis of Victor's successful challenge against tariffs and what it means for the future of wine.
A Surprising Correspondence: The story behind the personal letter Victor received from former VP Mike Pence.
