Please welcome to the pod Daniel's incredible wife and long overdue guest producer, Kristen King! We work through the interesting and always applicable classic, The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. There is a lot to unpack and also shout about, so we have quality brews from Cheboygan Brewing Company keeping us company. Part 1 of 2, so Cheers & Salud!
Grover... is... BACK! This time in 1976's Hide & Seek Sesame Street, another book by Jon Stone. A 4th wall breaking, & scandalously choreographed "spread" (?) complemented by Deez Nutz from Beards Brewery in Petoskey. Everything is vaguely sexual, cheers!

In 1982's The Going To Bed Book by Sandra Boynton, we see what going to bed was like before needing YouTube or episodes of New Girl to assist. Weezin' The Juice IPA from Grand Armory Brewery helps us figure out the sleep rituals on this animal cruise (?), which may or may not be a "Fat Camp." Cheers!

Special note: we are joined by special guest and friend of the show Brandon Melchert!

We take a look into Arcadia Ales and their double IPA, Hopmouth. Then it's seductive sweet potatoes, runaway must-haves and the redemptive power of church youth groups in the classic children's book I Was So Mad by author and illustrator Mercer Mayer.
We explore Eel River Brewing Company and sample their California Blonde Ale. Then it's ghost bunnies, robot cyborg bears and moon people in the classic children's book Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrations by Clement Hurd.
On our pilot episode we review Ballast Point's fantastic hazy IPA, Aloha Sculpin. Then it's orphans, portion control and negative body images as we read The Very Hungry Caterpillar by American author and illustrator Eric Carle.
