  • If it only stayed about beer would be a higher rating

    I don’t understand why these kind of podcast can’t stick to just beer. It would be a a higher rating if they would have kept out all the social justice stuff and all the issues going on outside of the beer world. We are looking for an escape not a reminder

  • Audio

    Still issues with audio being too low and inconsistent. Interviewer volume low and person being interviewed was almost inaudible. Struggled through those issues however and enjoyed the content.
