It's Barrel & Flow week and you know what that means. That's right, our podcast daddies, Ed Bailey & Day Bracey join the show to catch up this weekend's Barrel & Flow Fest, the Drinking Partners podcast and their recently-completed second season of Ed & Day in the 'Burgh on Very Local Pittsburgh. Oh, if you didn't know this you should — Barrel & Flow Fest was just named the No. 1 beer festival in the United States. See you in a couple of days, daddies.
Beer festivals are a great way to try new beers, meet brewery representatives and travel to new places and they've come a long way from the days of drinking beers in parking lots. Many beer festivals nowadays are not just about the beer and have seminars, food, culture, music, art and more. In this episode, we talk to two beer festival planners, Day Bracey, who runs Barrel and Flow in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Laura Lodge, who ran Big Beers, Belgians and Barleywines in Breckenridge, Colorado. They talk about what goes into making a beer festival a success, some difficulties facing festival planning, and the future of beer festivals.

Big Cat and the Pardon My Take Crew are in Indianapolis for the NFL Combine this weekend, and are already exhausted after bumping elbows with the media elites and even some coaches - including Matt LaFleur, which prompted Big Cat to share his true feelings about the Packers QB right to the coach's face. Plus, Ed Bailey and Day Bracey from Drinking Partners Podcast have a new show - Ed & Day in the Burgh, which premieres it's season finale tonight - and you can catch a live screening at Trace Brewing in Bloomfield. Joe Bartnick returns for another Soft Dump ahead of a pivotal south eastern road trip for the Pens which begins tonight in Tampa, Troy Schooley from P3R shares all the details about registering for the Pittsburgh Marathon. And the Godfather Stan Savran highlights some potential trade targets for the Penguins as the deadline approaches
Nigel and Nick are headed to the Barrel & Flow Fest Sept. 10 - 12, so they just had to have festival creators Day Bracey and Ed Bailey back on the pod. (Side note: if you're looking for someone to blame for the absurdity that is the Beers with Nigel podcast, you're welcome. The hosts of the Drinking Partners podcast and their festival are the sole reason Nigel grabbed Nick and uttered those fateful words: "I've got shit I want to say.") The duo even sent their guests some home grown KC craft beers, but apparently they broke some sacred Drinking Partners rules when they didn't send prior notice the beer was over 9% ABV. Oops. 13.5% is close, right? Act 47 discusses the upcoming festival and how it's not just about beer, but giving opportunities to minority brewers, artists and other underrepresented groups. There also may have been a discussion about getting Nick some security while in Pittsburgh. Sheesh, you can't take that other guy anywhere. Drinkers: Sap & Juice — Iowa Beer Project; Friendship Necklace # 1 — Diametric Brewing/Double Shift Brewing cola; & Coconut Porter — Windshift Brewing. Myster Beers: Stratoshphere — City Barrel Brewing & Graham Cracker Porter — Denver Beer Co.
Day Bracey wants to empower the Black community through the beer industry. This is a year-round goal and the podcaster, comedian, and festival organizer does that every day all day. But next week in Pittsburgh he is hosting the Barrel and Flow Festival and will be able to put the goal front and center. It's the continuation of the Fresh Fest, which he founded with business partner and podcast co-host Ed Bailey and rebranded for a new year after some issues with the name and a chance in another business relationship. There is a lot of talk about diversity in the craft beer space. But talk is just that. Action is what is needed. After countless brewery visits and conversations Day has a pretty good idea on what needs to be done to bring meaningful change to the space. On this episode of "Drink Beer, Think Beer" he'll share his thoughts on the subject and the industry and he also talks about how the festival is coming together how it aims to create a welcoming space – something that some other festivals don't always offer. This was recorded over zoom, and there were a few weak signal moments. Don't adjust your dial.

Summer might just be the best time to drink great beer (well, it's in a four-way tie with fall, winter, and spring) and on this episode we're speaking with comedians Day Bracey and Ed Bailey, hosts of the Drinking Partners podcast and two of the driving forces behind Fresh Fest, the first black beer festival in America. They tell us about the (amazing) plans for a digital Fresh Fest this year, inclusivity in craft beer, and what they're drinking this summer. We're also joined by old friend Zach Mack (beer writer, certified cicerone, owner of ABC Beer co.) to talk about his bar reopening in NYC, and his picks for the best beers to drink this summer… as we all could really use a drink right now.

Fresh Fest, the first Black beer festival in the country, is moving online due to COVID-19. In this episode, we chat with co-founder Day Bracey about how the pivot to digital will allow more accessibility and how he believes that digital components will permanently change the events landscape long after coronavirus. But what about a key aspect of this festival -- the beer collaborations? Bracey has organized some special four-packs that will be available for purchase, so you can drink along from the comfort of your couch. For $10, Fresh Fest Digi Fest promises 54 total hours of available programming, including cooking demos, panel discussions, and live music. By going digital, both presenters and attendees are not constrained by geography, and as such Bracey is excited about some international voices entering the mix. Plus, we highlight the Bike Match network, a nationwide program that is overseen locally by BikePGH, and we shoutout some diversity in the art community with the Spirit mural walls Black AF edition project slated for unveiling in Lawrenceville this summer.

Today’s guest was one of our 2019 Signifiers: an annual list our writers compile, in which we honor people in the industry who have made a lasting impact through their work. Day Bracey is the co-founder of Fresh Fest, the first Black-culture-focused beer festival in the country. It’s also one of the best beer festivals in the country—period. Hosted in Pittsburgh for the last two years, Fresh Fest has become a shining light in the city for culture and inclusion. It’s also drawn attendees from all over the country, putting Pittsburgh on the craft beer map in a way none of its individual breweries could. This year, Bracey has working with the team to reinvent the festival amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, transitioning to an ambitious online platform of experiences for people that promises to foster a new kind of connectivity and community around the same premise. In the week following this interview, Day shared some news on his personal Facebook account about some challenges the festival is facing going forward, including a legal rift with his co-founder Mike Potter, who started the Black Beer Culture brand. That rift was unknown to me at the time, and it’s not part of this conversation. Any potential fallout from that is also unknown to me right now, and our Sightlines team is working on it as I record this intro. Regardless of that outcome, which could threaten to undermine the festival’s efforts, or even existence, this year, Day has publicly stated that he’s moving forward with the plans. The second part of the interview is about Day’s experiences in Pittsburgh as a Black man. We discuss the numerous protests in the city after the murder of George Floyd, the fight against rampant police brutality, and the Black Lives Matter movement. This experience includes some heartbreaking details. I consider this critical listening, regardless of how informed, or uninformed, you are on those issues. This is Day Bracey of Fresh Fest. Listen in.
Day Bracey is a very talented guy. You may know him as one of the founders of Fresh Fest Beer Fest, the nation's first African-American beer festival held annually in Pittsburgh. You may also know him as a standup comedian. You may also know him as the bi-monthly food and drink writer for PittsburghCurrent.com. Or, you may know him as one-half of the Drinking Partners podcast that he hosts with fellow comedian, Ed Bailey. On today's episode, Day shares his story of how he got interested in craft beer (a hilarious tale from one his early jobs) and also why he decided to launch Fresh Fest Beer Fest.

SESSION SUMMARY: We've made some tremendous steps forward in our world. And, at the same time, there are still areas where we fall short. Unfortunately, we still live in a society where racism, sexism, and other epidemics plague our day to day lives and real humans battle through this hate in search of a more peaceful existence.Without question, the beer industry is a world that has seen a true lack of diversity as the popularity of this adult beverage, and culture, has boomed. Primarily, the beer industry consists of white males in the roles of sales, ownership, and production.But as time has gone on, women have joined the beer industry and made a tremendous impact on the growth and evolution and beer. Likewise, minorities have also become part of the revolution, forever proving the beer industry does not need to be dominated by one sex or one race to be relevant.In Pittsburgh, Mike Potter of Black Brew Culture - an online magazine covering diversity in the beer industry - Day Bracey, and Ed Bailey - comedians and co-hosts of the Drinking Partners Podcast - joined forces to celebrate diversity and bring a "fresh" perspective to the industry with the inaugural Fresh Fest Beer Fest in August of 2018. The event struck a chord not only with beer industry professionals, but enthusiasts, media, and other minority-owned businesses as well - making it a wild success that had everyone anticipating what this trio would bring together next.In August of 2019, Fresh Fest is back for Round 2 and Day and Mike took some time out of their busy schedule to rap about this year's event on the Breaking Brews Podcast. In this episode, we learn about Day and Mike's journey through the craft beer landscape, how they, along with Ed, came up with Fresh Fest, and what they say to the person who calls Fresh Fest a "racist beer fest." In addition, Day, Mike, and Jason talk about existing oppression in today's society. The trio's vision for Fresh Fest was to combat those stigmas as much as possible, all while delivering an immersive experience that brings businesses from all walks of life together to celebrate the camaraderie the beer industry inspires.You can learn more about Fresh Fest, connect with social media platforms, and secure your tickets to what promises to be one of the best events of the year at freshfestbeerfest.com.To catch up on the Drinking Partners Podcast, click:Website | Facebook | Instagram | TwitterCheck out Black Brew Culture:Website | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter MUSIC CREDIT: All music in this episode of the Breaking Brews Podcast is courtesy of purple-planet.comEVENT ALERT: Grab your tickets to Hot Glass, Cold Beer, Pink Boots

#112 Drinking Partners Podcast- Day Bracey and Ed Bailey Talk about Fresh Fest Some of my absolute favorite comedians and friends to talk to are back on my show. If you listened to the episode already, you probably heard me snorting from Ed Bailey and Day Bracey, hosts of The Drinking Partners Podcast. We are all Epicast family, so we have been frequent guests on each other's shows from time to time. What can I say, we like each other's company... and beer. Speaking of beer, these guys love to chat about the craft brewing industry. Trends, reviews, with comedy thrown in between. They are hosting a new concept, first in the nation to be exact called The Fresh Fest which is geared towards men of color in the beer industry. Let's face it, when craft brewing exploded, it was a white man's game. Now everyone is dipping in their toes, or full fledge cannonballing into the industry, and I fucking love it. Hell, I even make beer as a past time, and received mixed reviews when I first showed up to meetings. It is nice to know the diversity is happening, and that is what Ed and Day are bringing to the Burgh. Fresh Fest is pulling black brewers from across the country to represent here in the Burgh. Drinking Partners collaborated with Black Brew Culture to make this event happen, and it is sure to be an awesome time. Don't miss grabbing your tickets to the event on August 11th at Nova Place! Also, these cats just recorded some audio for the Smithsonian! What? Could NOT wait to talk to them about that, and they judged Viceland out in California. That is just too cool. You will also catch us bitching about technology in the modern world, Ed's fashion style, and a ton more we had to catch up on. We are also giving away a free ticket to Fresh Fest! Ways to enter- Tag 3 friends in the comments section of this post on Facebook Retweet on Twitter Winner will be pulled Next Sunday August 5th! "The Drinking Partners and Black Brew Culture are proud to present Fresh Fest 2018 on August 11, 2018 from 5-9 pm!

Fellow Ohioan Ed Bailey and I dig into the genesis of his podcast Drinking Partners, produced by himself and co-host Day Bracey for the Epicast Network. Ed and Day are fresh off their featured spot on "Beerland" a beer-themed TV show on the Viceland Network shot and recorded right here at the Unplanned Comedy Warehouse. I got tons of great advice on hosting and producing high-quality live comedy show. Twice a month Ed and Day host their show at the Comtra Theatre and the Arcade Comedy Theater.We talk about the allures of Cleveland to his outlook on fatherhood and recovering from a life-threatening car accident. Ed is a common feature at comedy clubs and discusses his growing career, but as a fellow Ohioan, we must devote a little time talking all things Lebron. This conversation was a blast. What a great hour of banter. Don’t forget about Patreon.com/Titlebaum to join our fan club before it’s official launch in two weeks. Garrett Titlebaum: It's Nice To See He's Working RSS

#99 Big Brothers and Sister of Pittsburgh Holiday Special Don't you wish when you were in high school you could talk to someone older, who wasn't your parents, or your teachers. Someone who was just there to give advice, without judgement. Maybe an outside perspective into a job you were eyeing up, but weren't sure was the right fit for you. That is only a small part of what Big Brothers Big Sisters of America does for kids. My best friend Jhon Yonan has been telling me about his little for over 7 years. I have seen him grow with him, and change for the better himself along side his little. It was something I have wanted to do for quite some time, but life gets in the way. My husband and I are FINALLY in the process of becoming "Bigs", and we cannot wait. I think it is so important, not just to the kids to have someone who helps them as the grow up, but for the "Bigs". As with most things, I didn't know the in's and out's of becoming a "Big". So for this holiday season, I thought, what better way to close out 2017, than to have a representative of BBBS on the show. I invited Counsilman Tom Baker who is the Chief Community Officer of BBBS to come on the show and talk about it's history as one of the oldest non profits around. BBBS started in New York City back in 1904, and has quite an interesting history that we talk about, but my interest also extends to experience. I wanted to know, so I assume others would as well. What the entire process is for becoming a "Big", what you can expect, ideas of where to take your little, and so on. Tom answers all of your questions if you are thinking about joining one of their three ways to become involved. It didn't stop there for me though, for the second half of the podcast I bring in Jhon Yonan, and his little Marvin Jamar Lee Gurley- Boyd to talk about their experience with one another. It is super endearing to hear the two of them reminisce about when they met, the things they have done, and what they have learning from one another through the years. Tune in and happy holidays everyone Come out and support BBBS at "Marta Match- A throwback of The Match Game" at City Theatre on January 5th! YOU could be chosen as a contestant to win big prizes.

#98 Kahmeela Adams Ever have a friend who is relentless about you meeting a person they know. You hear, "Oh! You don't know her/him? You have to! You two are so much alike!" You then dismiss said friend, because you have heard it before, and it really doesn't turn out to be true. Sometimes... it does, enter Kahmeela Adams. Kahmeela and I met for coffee after a friend's urging, and the time flew. We share a lot of the same loves including Comic Cons, and (I say proudly), are a bit quirky, funny, and a bit odd. I like that about us. Much like myself, Kahmeela is a busy woman who likes to have her hands in a lot of fun activities. She has not one, but four podcasts in Pittsburgh! Rugged Angel , Down To Watch, Psych Babble, and ReVisiting Sunnydale where her and her long time friend talk about their love of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Kahmeela has also produced for the past 9 years the 48 Hour Film Project in Pittsburgh. This is something I really wanted to chat with her about. I have always heard of the project, but never really delved into the details with anyone before. It seemed like something that just passed on my radar, but never really landed. I chat with Kahmeela about what all goes into producing the event, even though this will be her last year in that role. What do you need to get started? Do you have to have your own crew? Can I film on my phone? What prompts do you get, if any to work with? How long do you have to create it? Will it ever be shown in a theater to anyone? We answer all of these questions. We also chat about podcasting, and what new folks looking to get into it can expect to find once you start one for yourself. It isn't as easy as it seems. ;P Boardgames, Pittsburgh talk, our love of Storm Large and more happen in this awesome conversation. Wanna be a part of a LIVE game show!? On January 5th, you can!

#97 Patrick Cannon I met Patrick over 10 years ago when we both starred in a musical at Robert Morris College. The musical was 1776. Patrick starred as John Adams, and I played Charles Thomson( Yes I played a man, and slayed it. btw). This was a very magical show for everyone involved. In fact, both my brother and sister starred in the musical as well, and the entire cast grew very close. Years later, we still keep in touch, and remember it fondly. During the production, it became very clear with everyone that this young actor named Patrick with the booming voice, and stage presence was going to do great things. Patrick was around the Pittsburgh acting scene years later, having worked at many production companies including-Pittsburgh CLO, Front Porch Theatricals, Bricolage Production Company, and the No Name Players. He then decided to try his hand at NYC, where he has resided since, and continues his acting career. Pittsburgh, has never left him though. A few months ago I received a message from Pat about a script he was writing called Mulligan. His excitement was palpable, you couldn't help but get wrapped up in whatever this project was. He asked if he could get my opinion on the script, and of course I said yes. I was about to board a plane to Morocco, and delighted in the reading material to occupy the time. I quickly found myself lost in the pages. It was, in a sentence, an homage to Pittsburgh. The story in based in Pittsburgh, and centers around a character named Jack O'Mally. A golf prodigy, a convict, an addict, and a man with a story. "Mulligan-is a story of family, addiction, redefining home, and the pursuit of redemption" I got to catch up with Patrick the day after they wrapped the pilot. Just one look at him told me how exhausted, and worn down he was from the process, but I am still happy we got to reconnect, and chat about this awesome piece of work he has created. I can't wait to see where it goes. Tune in. Wanna be a part of a LIVE game show!? On January 5th, you can!

#95 Angelmakers- Songs For Female Serial Killers What is it about serial killers that makes us interested in them? My Netflix account is full with documentaries about them. Thousands of books have been written about them. Even I, at a young age was obsessed with all the information I could find. Why they did what they did, and more so, HOW could they do it. In my lead up to Halloween I found something happening in Pittsburgh that I felt was the perfect fit. Angelmakers- Songs For Female Serial Killers written by Molly Rice and Rusty Thelin from Real/Time Interventions that shows at the new Aftershock Theater in Pittsburgh. Men get enough of the spotlight in this area. Fish, Bundy, Gacy, Gaskins, Gibbs, or my personal favorite, Holmes. ( The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America is the best book, folks) There isn't as much spotlight on women as there are on men, so it is interesting that Real/Time Interventions decided to create a true crime rock concert to showcase some of these women. The show runs October 25th to November 11th. I for one can't wait to gain some new perspective in their troubled lives. The show will feature an all female band, comprised of both local and international talent including- Milia Ayache, Michele Dunlap, and Zorahna.

#94 Castle Blood Pittsburgh has it's fair share of horror attractions, ranging from hay rides, to scare houses, forrest trails, and much more. I have not, however, found an attraction that combines all of my favorites things into one... until now. Castle Blood was introduced to me recently by a fan on my Facebook page. He suggested that the experience was right up my alley, boy was he right! The attraction combines immersive theater, escape rooms, AND haunted houses all in one. Didn't think it was possible? Neither did I. Some may say the only draw back of Castle Blood is it's location. It's "home" is located in Monessen, a short 45-50 minute ride from downtown Pittsburgh. I for one, think it makes it a destination, a planned journey, an adventure. When an event is located right in your city, sometimes it is easy to say "Well, I know it is there. We will go next year!" I think one of it's charms is where Castle Blood is located. While they are trying to revitalize it, Monessen is a forgotten industrial town. Hard to think that Frances McDormand was born there with what it looks like today. Most of the building are vacant, overgrown with foliage. The coke furnaces are still running, so the air seems thick. Hardly anyone walked the streets as we drove up on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. I know this all sound unappealing, but it makes for a perfect spooky experience. Castle Blood is located in a 100 year old old funeral home. (How grand is that?) While this location is relatively new for them, Castle Blood has been operating for over 20 years. I arranged a podcast and tour with owner Ricky Dick. Ricky has been in this industry since the age of 16. He walked us through the house without giving too much away (since I was planning on coming back) The front room gave me legit goosebumps as the original parlor and viewing room. The rest of the space is disorienting, intricate, fun, and spooky. The actors are there with you as teams of 8 take the challenge of getting through various rooms. It really is all of the things I love in one! Tune into this episode as we walk through Castle Blood! This episode is sponsored by Levity, Pittsburgh's premier sensory deprivation experience.

#93 Steve Rudzinski We are officially into the Halloween season my friends, and you know what that means. The lead up to Halloween on my podcast is one of my favorite times of the year. I love featuring everything spooky, scary, and downright fearful these two months, and I have some great episodes coming up, starting with this one. Steve Rudzinski is a director of horror films in Pittsburgh. Well, not just director. Steve also writes, acts, produces, and edits a good bit of his work as well. He has been creating films since he was 16, and hasn't stopped since. I originally heard of Steve when I went to see a showing of Captain Z & the Terror of the Leviathon. Being a huge horror film nerd myself, I was loving all of the special effects that were put on screen for what must have been a low budget flick. I brought Steve on the show to chat about behind the scenes of creating your very own horror movie, or any movie in fact. The process, casting, production, and budgets all get brought up through the conversation. Plus, of course we talk our favorite horror films, that is just a given. Steve's new horror movie CarousHELL is out now, and we chat about how that came to be, and some cool special effect experiences he has had on set. The second half of the podcast I dive into asking Steve about his other job as being Marvel's official Spiderman. This guy gets to done the Spideysuit, and fly around the country to perform for events. I had to know how he landed that gig, and how flexible he was. lol This episode is sponsored by Levity, Pittsburgh's premier sensory deprivation experience.

#92 Darcy Lyle and Rachel Dobos Facing your fears is never easy, and we as humans tend to run in the opposite direction rather than look them straight in the eye. I have always been a fan of running towards them. It started with my first solo plane ride overseas for my volunteer project, then to scuba diving, and recently indoor rock climbing. I have noticed as I get older, I am starting to have a fear of heights. I never really noticed it, until I was standing very high up on a ledge somewhere, and instantly got panicked. It was a terrible feeling that I hadn't known I had, this fear. So I asked my friend Darcy to take me someplace to beat it out of me. That place, was called Ascend Pittsburgh, an indoor rock climbing gym location in Pittsburgh's South Side. I didn't know what to expect my first time at Ascend, and to be honest, it looked pretty easy just watching people climb. The colored notches on the wall, were welcoming, cute even. Then my turn to try, and I failed miserably the first couple of times. Those colored notches are NOT cute, they are the devil. Half way up my second wall I froze, and was urged on by the ever patient Darcy to not look down, and keep going. I eventually made it to the top of the wall. Laying down for a good 5 minutes before standing up, and gazing out over my sad success. It felt good. The point to my story is that it is scary as hell to try fight your fears, and that is why I HAD to have Steel City Slackers come on my show. This group of dare devils have taken it to the next level. I had no clue what slack lining was when I first entered Ascend. I then found out it is pretty much walking on a tethered 1 Inch thick line of material across a surface, above the ground. The idea of it seemed hopelessly hard to accomplish to me, but I figured if they were just doing it a foot above the ground, what's the big deal? If you lose your balance (Which I most assuredly would), you can just step off, no harm done. Not entirely the case for this group, they go much higher. I didn't know you could slack line across gorges, mountains, ravines, and other terrifying prospects. This is a thing that is called high lining, and the moment Darcy told me that she tried this to face her fear of heights, I had to have her, and Rachel on the show to talk about the process, and how they worked up the nerve to do it. We chat about what is all involved, why it is great for your mind and body, what they get out of it and how they mentally prepare themselves. I was also treated to a showing of acroyoga which is beyond gorgeous to watch. Darcy and Rachel performed it so fluidly, It seemed I stepped into a carnival show. It was beautiful, and flawlessly executed. I hope one day I can be brave enough to try slack lining higher up, and fly through the air like that, but I won't hold my breath. ;) I did in fact try slack lining in this episode, so you get to hear me struggling. It is a hoot. Check out the Steel City Slackers free beginners workshop to try it out yourself. This episode is sponsored by Levity Pittsburgh!

“I was not able to fully appreciate the beauty of my detours until I was able to share them. As a performer, all I’ve wanted to do was give back to the world. But now I have an even greater gift to give: a story to tell.” Amy grew up believing that her entire life would be dedicated to the performing arts. Now, she identifies as a survivor and “thriver” of sexual abuse, 27 surgeries, coma, organ failure, and the PTSD that comes from ten years of trauma – or what she now calls her “beautiful detour.” At 18, years old, a blood clot caused Amy’s body to go into septic shock. She was in a coma for six months, and after a total gastrectomy, was unable to eat or drink a drop of water for six of the past ten years. After 27 surgeries, she was miraculously reconnected with the intestines she had left. To persevere through those tumultuous years took great inner and outer strength. She has learned that the human spirit feeds off of hope, and hope is fuel we can cultivate ourselves. Ultimately, she learned that with resourcefulness, creativity, and unwavering curiosity, we can transform any adversity into personal growth and a resilience that is uniquely ours. http://www.goingdeepwithaaron.com/podcast Connect with Amy Facebook Twitter Website If you liked this interview, check out episode 184 with the Drinking Partners Ed Bailer and Day Bracey, where we discuss comedy and the business of comedy.
Born and raised in Cleveland, OH, Ed Bailey’s family noticed his quick wit early on in life. While that wit sometimes landed him in trouble, it often was the source of great entertainment for those who bore witness. After high school, the University of Pittsburgh brought him to Pittsburgh, PA where he would make a name for himself as a comedian. During his brief career as a comedian, Ed has been able to capture the attention of some of the most recognizable figures in comedy such as Eddie Griffin and Hannibal Burress which is a testament to his ability to relate to anyone while on stage. His talents have also landed him a successful podcast that he co-hosts with comedian Day Bracey called Drinking Partners on the Epicast Network. A polygamist, simultaneously married to bacon and booze, Day Bracey once led a mostly private life, in fear of persecution from a conservative right winged christian society who wouldn’t understand his inability to choose between two loves. Armed with his sword of common sense and shield of free thought, Day Bracey now roams the Earth, striking down ignorance and BS wherever they may rear their ugly heads. A guerrilla against a well established army of stupidity, his methods of attack have been described as surprising and borderline radical, but precise and well planned. Also, he tells poop jokes.

Cathy Bruno, author of The Pathway of the Chosen series joins Marta On The Move! I am extremely into fantasy and fiction writers. I love how their minds work, and reading what spills over onto the pages. My all time favorite author is Stephen King and favorite book series is The Dark Tower. Ever since reading it, I have been searching for new authors to fill the hole that any book leaves when you are that obsessed. (Yes I used the word obsessed), about it. I love to interview creators from my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA, and delves into their process. I met Cathy through my friend Day Bracey from Drinking Partners Podcast, and he told me about her first book in the series The Girl from the North. I instantly downloaded it to give it a try, and found myself immersed into the rich landscape she painted within her world. Cathy started off writing poetry and that thoughtfulness shows through in the story she weaves. I am already finished with the second book in the series, and I, like many others, am awaiting the third. Patiently................ :) Join me as we chat about what the process is to make a book, what her habits are, how to self publish, and explore the characters she has written about in The Pathway of the Chosen series.
