We’re stoked to be joined (in the gahdayum studio) by co-founder/brewer of Pittsburgh’s COVEN — Caiti Sullivan!
Caiti and her brewery had popped up multiple times in the Graingangosphere, and fate finally got its wish. Our conversation is all over the map, touching on Caiti’s background in art (pocket that for tre bay); quick love for the Steel City; the enigmatic force that awakens the entrepreneurial spirit; hypothetical advice for aspiring business owners l; and not much at all about witches.
Always a treat to get a visiting in-person guest on the pod, and this was no different. Listen to the entire cauldron of our conversation NOW, available wherever podcasts are procured.

We’re joined in the studio this week by founder of @CFCWear and friend of the brewery — Kyle Poissonnier!
Kyle was selling t-shirts out of a car trunk when Noah was making his first “beer” on the stove. Needless to say, a lot of growing has happened since then, and Kyle opens up on the undeniably long and mistake-laden path that led him - and virtually any “successful dreamer” - to where he is today.
We also get into the genesis of Catalyst For Change; it’s “Just a Kid From Maine” and other biggest lines; Surviving Black Friday as a Small E-Comm 101; public speaking, and so much else.

We’re joined in the OG studio this week by @BBBThreeRivers’ very own — Chef Joe Robbins!
With five months of operating Milo’s kitchen under his belt, Joe reflects on the nuances of serving top-notch food in a small town, rolling with an incredibly lean crew (he represents 50% of kitchen staff), and finding profit in sourcing locally.
We also get into how Joe’s Penobscot heritage influences his approach to food, the many virtues of @RezDogsFX, and the truly touching story that got him into the kitchen in the first place.
Our entire conversation is available NOW, wherever locally grown podcasts are harvested.

Oxbow CFO (and actor, photographer, and former semi-pro football player) Matt Delamater is with us this week!
We compare notes of the role of “finance guy at small brewery” (Matt is more Obi than Darth); discuss the unquantifiable value of time in beer cost; and shout the virtues of rural breweries. 💸
Oh, and when he’s not wearing a green visor, he’s casually building his @IMDB credits (26 and counting), most recently in “The Tender Bar” (*a George Clooney joint) and “Julia” on @HBOMax. We get a into his highly unique performance journey, beginning with a Barry-esque entry into Maine community theater as an adult banker. Wild and genuinely inspiring stuff. 🎭
Take in all three acts of this convo with a golden-hearted polymath of life, available NOW wherever tickets are sold.

Noah’s back from hop selection; Matty has become a pretzel baker; So much has changed.
We get into sensory overload, being selective at selecting, drive-thru coffee (but SEXAY), BBB’s ability to flex in Yakima, Shawn Kemp’s merch void, vibe-killing drink orders, and finally wind down with some deeply analytical ranking of various pretzie hauses. *The seatbelt sign is now on*
Available OVEN FRESH right friggin now, wherever your podcasts are baked.

With Fall here, the timing couldn’t be better to talk apples with Zack Kaiser of @AbsolemCider!
Absolem is located in the heart of central Maine on one of the most beautiful properties you’ll ever see, making some of the best cider we have ever tasted. Naturally, 90 minutes wasn’t close to enough time, but we had an absolute beast of a convo that should serve as a great primer to those also ignorant but interested in the magic apple fermentation.

A bachelor party, a charity golf tournament, and a bunch of other stuff meant no episode this week.

See ya next week for the freshies!

e’re joined this week by one of our very own — @BissellBrothers Head of Distribution Josh Schlesinger!
Josh (or Sniff as he’s known by nearly anyone with a pulse) was the brewery’s second hire back in early 2014, and his tenure has afforded him a very unique perspective on how BBB’s beer is best served (full pun intention) outside the brewery walls.
🚛📦⏳
In our conversation, we reflect on how Sniff and his team’s approach to distribution has become more fluid and flexible over time, while simultaneously doubling down on the ideals that brought the company success in the first place. We touch on Christmas evictions, BBB’s big plans for Grocery, country music sensations, and so much more.
🎸🧘🎄
The episode is available in full NOW, wherever you get your ice cold podcasts delivered!

With anxious minds, busy schedules, and a lot more to talk about, we’re keeping it intimate for another week.; *”Just the Two of Us” fades in* 👨❤️👨
After touching on the CO2 shortages showing up in beer news, we dive into a discussion on everyone’s favorite subject — mental health and illness! 🧠🎭
Specifically, Noah reflects on his relationship with depression and Matt shares straight from the heart about his experience with Schizophrenia, something his brother has dealt with for the last decade. The brutal, the ugly, and the deeply beautiful all abound in a disorder that 1% of the population has despite all too often being ignored by society and systematically avoided by healthcare world.
Be it to relate, learn, or maybe even cry, there’s a lot to take in from this unexpected conversation…and that’s what friends are for. ❤️
Get it NOW, everywhere and anywhere!

This week, Noah’s back from an impromptu trip to New Haven where he learned that mopeds are in fact the only mode of transportation in Hell; Matty scratches his macro economics and mailbag itches with the same stroke and tees up a great question about how a recession could/will/is affecting decisions and philosophy behind the scenes at @BissellBrothers; AND so much more, available for downloadable ear-ticklin’ NOW, wherever podcasts are found!️

We’re joined this week by fast friend and Director of Brewing Ops at @JackieOsBrewery, Seth Morton!
Seth gets into how his eleven year tenure at Jackie O’s began with a very special sledgehammer; shares some of his vast wisdom about barrel sourcing, recipe design, and turning “ladybug” into “Twizzler”; and discusses how the brewery’s commitment to community is far more than a tagline or attractive drop-down page.
Oh — and radio shock jocks. We talk about that, too.
Get it NOW, wherever traditional radio has already gone to die!
