    What can I say about the people of Charleston? They are doing amazing things everyday and we pass by each other going through our routine not even know about it. On this episode we are going to introduce you to a couple of locals that are using the internet and technology to leave their mark on Charleston.   We will stop by Madra Rua Irish Pub in Park Circle where I met Joseph Brugeman who developed an app that is going to help out bars and patrons. It's called Pubr and it is Charleston exclusive for the moment.                                                           Pubr  We also grab lunch with Amber from Slim Pickin's Kitchen. After a pretty good turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce and potato salad, at Charleston Bakery & delicatessen, Amber tells us all about her blog and the different types of recipes you will find on her website. Did you know you can get paid to blog? She will tell you how.   Lets not forget about our musical guest. I found Brendan Pugh on Reverbnation and thought that the rest of Charleston needs to hear him sing his song King Street. Thanks for listening and if you like what we are doing I would love to see your rating and review on iTunes.

    This episode left me fuzzy the next day and I know I wasn't the only one. We traveled out to Park Circle and meet with Hal from Accent On Wine. The atmosphere was great and the wines didn't have that harsh after taste. Guess what, they have beer too!! Between the jokes and the laughter I think we even fit in some great info on wine too. I'll be back to check the patio out when the nice weather hits for sure.
