ABOUT THE NAMASTE SLASHER Meditating has never been this frightening. Think "Friday The 13th", but set in a modern day Mindfulness retreat. A deliciously camp yet gruesome slasher with nods to the classic 80s Slashers. When five people from all over Europe take part in an exclusive Mindfulness retreat on mountain Velebit in Croatia, they have no idea what's in store for them once a masked killer shows up. Let's hope their healing crystals can provide the necessary protection. Twists & Turns, Chase Scenes and Queer Representation.

About Lisa Vasquez Lisa Vasquez, (known by her readers and fans as the Unsaintly Queen) creates vivid, twisted horror with the precision of a scalpel, and cuts into the reader's psyche with fleshed out characters. Vasquez is a mentor for the HWA, is head of Stitched Smile Publications, and retired editor-in-chief of the company's quarterly publication, House of Stitched Magazine. Vasquez now focuses on her own stories which range from slow and subtle gothic horror, to the more extreme sub-genres of horror. Her writing style has been compared to the works of Mary Shelley, Baz Luhrman, and the Grand Guignol (John Palisano, Bram Stoker-winning author of NERVES), and is hailed as, "A writer of nightmarish vision and a new, poetic voice in today's horror genre" (Peter Molnar, author of THE CLOCKWORK LAZARUS). A native Chicagoan who spent half her life on the city's south side, she now lives in Houston, Texas, fighting off mosquitos large enough to carry off small children, and avoiding direct sunlight. The Unsaintly Queen is rumored to only accept offerings of “sparklies.” For more information about Books & Brews, check out the event on Facebook right here facebook.com/share/qbGdAEcvzp8En1q3/ _____________________________________________________________________Our theme song is by Benny and the No Goods.

About Jeff Strand Jeff Strand's bio was funnier when he talked about losing the Bram Stoker Award four times, but he's now a Bram Stoker Award WINNER! His novels are usually classified as horror, but they're really all over the place, almost always with a great big dose of humor. He's written five young adult novels that all fall into the "really goofy comedy" category. Several of his books are in development as motion pictures, and he's mostly not allowed to blab any details, which he finds MADDENING. He currently lives in sunny, warm Duluth, Minnesota.

About Matthew Lutton Matthew Lutton is an up-and-coming author hailing from Newport Beach, California. Growing up in the sunny beach town, Matthew's imagination was sparked by the eerie and unexplainable happenings that would occur in the quiet corners of the city. He has always been fascinated with the horror genre, and began writing his own stories as a way to explore his dark and twisted thoughts. Matthew's debut anthology, "10 Drink Minimum" delves deep into the darkness of the human soul, exploring themes like fear, desperation, and madness. His tales are a unique blend of psychological horror, supernatural mystique, and visceral violence. Each story is crafted with precision, creating a world that is both hauntingly realistic and unforgettably surreal. When he's not writing, Matthew loves to explore the California coastline and mountains, soaking up inspiration for his next tale of terror. He is a self-proclaimed film buff, especially when it comes to horror, and has a knack for spotting creative storytelling techniques that others may miss. "10 Drink Minimum" has been met with critical acclaim, and has made its way onto many horror fans' must-read lists. Available now on Amazon, it showcases Matthew's unique storytelling voice and is a chilling journey into the depths of horror.

ABOUT DAEMON MANX Daemon Manx is a recovering addict who spent nearly a decade in the prison system where he focused on recovery and learned to write horror. Making the most of his second chance at life, Daemon recently celebrated eleven and a half years clean and sober and is celebrating that milestone with the release of his upcoming series The Ojanox. He is a Splatterpunk Award nominee, received the H.A.G. award for his story The Dead Girl in 2021, and was a bonus round winner on the gameshow Wheel of Fortune in 1999. But all that pales in comparison to what Daemon is infamously known for, sideswiping Ronald Reagan's limousine. Fortunately … or unfortunately, no presidents were harmed in the accident.

This clip comes from Nanobrew's 6th episode ever back in 2015 with the super-original crew of Jason, Joel, and Bryan. In this throwback micro-content Jason describes one of the big motivators of the original concept that helped defined the Books & Brews business model.
This micro-content throwback from 2014 highlights our concept "Doing business on the Nanoscale: Win Aggressive, Lose Aggressive." The net change is always positive. Shout out to Brad Sprauer one of the original supporters of Books & Brews that helped get us up and on our feet.
Originally recorded in the summer of 2017 when Books & Brews was blasting off, the Funky Boss gives his #1 advice for starting a business and making a money, which is, to quote Timecop, "Ballin on a Budget!" This is the tip: 90/10 rule - 90% of your time brings money into the business, 10% of the time saving money. Listen for more ridiculous shenanigans, beat boxing, and a blast from the past.
Throwback episode from March 6th, 2016, where the original trio of the Funky Boss, Timecop, and Murder Shoes Max give shout outs to the guests that helped get Books & Brews reach the starting point of their explosive growth in 2016.

Stories from Franchisees & Founders In this episode, Erik talks with Jason Wuerfel, the founder of Books & Brews. Jason grew up too nerdy for the jocks and too jocky for the nerds.

Books & Brews is a place for the reader, for the scholar, for the gamer, for the drinker, for the music lover, for the individual. Jason and Erik talk about the growth strategy for his niche franchise, winning marketing tactics, and fundamental truths in building and developing any business within a community. Jason grew up in an entrepreneurial family, but there were things he initially took for granted. Tune in to hear his powerful story about what can happen when failure isn't an option.

We start this Easter Edition of Books & Brews at Werewolf for brunch. We get our fill of grub and later drink some ciders from Serpentine a local cidery. Turns out Alan actually enjoys somethings but he does hate pandas. We discuss Battle Pope by Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore. Robert thought Alan was teaching his kids about Jesus when in fact Alan was discussing the almighty Optimus Prime. Find out what makes Alan sad. Second, we talk about Jesusfreak by Joe Casey and Benjamin Marra. There is a big split decision on this reading. Baby Jesus breaks Robert and Alan. We discuss our own religious backgrounds/beliefs and Alan talks about his blessed hands. We discuss our final reading which is Punk Rock Jesus by Sean Murphy.
Jason Wuerfel may have both played on and owned minor league baseball teams, but his brewery and taproom - Books & Brews - is in a league of its own. Before classic brews like the Clifford were created, you could find him behind home plate competing with the top names in baseball. His love of the game never faltered, so he decided to start his entrepreneurship journey with owning a minor league team - the Traverse City Beach Bums. Jason enjoys creating an experience for customers, which lent to his success with the Beach Bums since minor league games are about engaging the audience with the full product, not just the sport. He brought his talents and this concept to his Indianapolis business, Books & Brews, where his goal is to create a place for people without a place. Now he franchises a number of locations, has been featured in a New York Times article, and has a podcast called Nano Brew.

In Episode 59 Mark interviews Sara Rider, author of contemporary romances full of heart and heat about strong women and the men who can't resist them. Prior to the interview, Mark shares a few personal updates which include: Recently reading THE HOLY SH!T MOMENT by James Fell A forthcoming trip to Colorado Springs for Superstars Writing Seminars Thanks Patreon supporters with a note that there'll be additional content posted for them upon his return from Superstars in early Feb 2019 Mark also shares a word about this episode's corporate sponsor, Findaway Voices . . . . . . you can learn more at starkreflections.ca/Findaway. In their conversation, Mark and Sara talk about: How Sara's passion for and experience in soccer and reading romance novels led to a series of romance novels that focus on professional soccer players The wishfulfilment element of those novels Sara's experience with slush piles, an agent and having her first novels published by an imprint of Pocket Books, one of the world's largest publishers The reasons why Sara decided to self-publish her next series, which included the ability to give away free books How Sara continues to work with her agent while exploring both traditional publishing and self-publishing opportunities Mark's discovery of Sara's Books and Brews series because of the unique craft brewery setting for these novels and the reasons why Sara decided to use that as part of the setting How the idea for a book can pop right into Sara's head almost fully formed The elements that connect the books in the Books & Brews series (which include the intertwined world of writers and brewers) The division of time related to working full time, raising a family and writing The role of deadlines in Sara's writing life Tips for ensuring that her break and lunch-time writing sessions are not compromised Sara's biggest regrets from when her first novel was launched and what she would have changed The approach Sara takes with her newsletter After the interview, Mark reflects on Sara's mention of the fact that readers are interested in and want to like the writers that they read.

Sometimes we like to make high-level requests of our employees here at Books & Brews to see if the staff can rise to the challenge: punch in, do your job, punch out. How do you think that goes? Not good, y'all, not good. You want to open a business? Start realizing that those three simple steps are the exception and not the rule.
The gang comes back with their usual business shenanigans and the conversation quickly divulges into the future cyborg olympics. Jason talks about how Books & Brews uses community building and the empowerment of "champions" to develop niches within niches, Bryan loses Stump the Brewer under league protest, Brandon arts in our face about horror movies, and Komal tells the story of being run over by a car and being mugged at the same time.
My guest for The Happy Hour # 201 is Priscilla Shirer. Priscilla is a wife, mom, and Bible teacher. She and her husband, Jerry, lead Going Beyond Ministries through which they provide spiritual support and resources to the body of Christ. They count it as their greatest privilege to serve every denomination and culture across the spectrum of the church. Friends, Priscilla is a joy to talk to and you are going to love hearing her speak about her ministry, her family, and how God has led her down paths she never would have imagined (such as how she flat out said No! the first time she was asked to be in a movie!) We start out the show talking about family and ministry - you guys have heard Chrystal and Wynter on the Happy Hour before, and it's awesome hearing how they do life together and support each other. Priscilla and I talk about trying to teach our kids the importance of those daily tasks we all need to do (i.e. cleaning, cooking!) and being ok when maybe it's not quite how we would have done it - the struggle is real! Priscilla then shares how she started writing The Prince Warriors series - can you imagine if your 4 year old came up to you and asked, "Mom, will I be in a battle one day?" This is what happened to Priscilla and you are going to love hearing what happened from that question. In the last part of the show Priscilla shares how she came to act in movies. I think we can all relate to feeling afraid, intimidated, and unequipped to succeed. But, I know you will feel encouraged as you hear Priscilla describe how God led her and made what felt impossible, possible, and expanded the reach of the ministry greater than she could have imagined. {You can listen to the show HERE, and make sure you never miss a Happy Hour - subscribe using your favorite podcast app (ie. iTunes, Google Play).
