Ok so let's just face the facts. 2020 sucks donkey balls! This "Mexican Beer" virus continues to wreak havoc on the world, cancelling everything in its path. It's bad enough that we have already had to postpone our 100th episode, now it has simply buggered our 3rd Birthday! Not only is it the 3rd Birthday of the CGCM Podcast, but it is also Rich "The Meister" Dillon's 47th Birthday AND Wallygator's big 5-0. In the words of the Metal Cowboy, Ron Keel, April 10th is a "major monumental metal milestone". Welcome to the CGCM's third birthday party. We have to do it isolated but that doesn't mean we cant crack open an ice cold Black Oak Brewery beer and/or a sweet shot of Cloven Hoof Rum. Raise a toast and let's learn about April 10th! Wallygator came prepared with a bunch of facts about this important date in history. Music facts, general facts and a bunch of crap that nobody really cares about. It's not like you have anywhere to go! So stop your bitching, stay at home and flatten the curve. As always the boys bring the music! They alternate between "3" themed songs (cause the podcast turns 3 years old...duh.) and "gift" themed songs. Since they can't be in the same room to record together, the hosts give each other "birthday gift" songs as tokens of appreciation for each other. Join us, won't you?

For part two of the Ontario Brewer Podcast feature on Black Oak Brewing Co, Chef Howard Dubrovsky from Live and Breathe Restaurant, in Toronto, has prepared two appetizers to pair with the Black Oak Pale Ale and the Black Oak Double Chocolate Cherry Stout. He joins Mirella and Black Oak Brewery president Ken Woods for a tasting of these two beers alongside his appetizers. Chef Howard takes some time to explain why beer pairs well with food, and points out traits to look for in beer when pairing it with food. Ken also shares new sexy technique that brewmaster Simon daCosta devised this year, to brew the Double Chocolate Cherry Stout. A special thanks to our partner for this podcast: Chef Howard Dubrovsky from Live and Breathe Restaurant. Recipes for Chef Howard’s appetizers are available on the Recipes section of the OCB Website. Located in the heart of Toronto’s Little Italy, Live and Breathe (also known as LAB) provides a unique dining experience, bridging the best of classic Italian cooking techniques and modern molecular gastronomy. Texture and flavours are inventively and playfully manipulated to create a menu unlike anything else on the strip. Find out more at: www.labrestaurant.com/
