In this episode of YES or NO, Michael Knowles is joined by veteran, delegate, and unapologetic straight-shooter Nick Freitas for a no-fluff, high-proof round of rapid-fire questions. From politics and patriotism to parenting and pop culture, nothing is off-limits—and the drinks don't help. Can Nick handle the pressure of the buzzer and the bourbon? Will Michael be able to read him, or will the former Green Beret keep him guessing? Real answers. Real drinks. Zero apologies.

What does it take to build a breakout non-alcoholic beverage brand in today's ultra-competitive drinks market? For George Youmans, co-founder and Chief Revenue Officer of Hiyo, it starts with a crystal-clear brand promise: a stress-relieving, mood-boosting sensation they call “the float.”In just three years, Hiyo has grown into a category leader, selling over 500,000 cases annually, with +212% year-over-year retail sales growth — making it the #1 contributor to growth in the functional-other beverage category, according to SPINS. With its USDA Organic formulation, a national rollout in 946 Target stores, and a recent minority investment from Constellation Brands, Hiyo is cementing its place as a top player in the fast-rising functional non-alc space.In this episode, George shares:How Hiyo went from a bootstrapped pandemic idea to tripling retail revenue last yearThe role of e-commerce in Hiyo's early success, including a 10X sales leap in year two and 3X in year threeWhy the “floaty feeling” — not just functional ingredients — became the emotional core of the brandHow the team leverages its 500K+ DTC customer base to drive velocity at retail with targeted geo campaignsWhy Hiyo prioritizes rate of sale over door count, aiming for sustainable growth over splashy expansionHow packaging design — based on Californian sunset palettes — became a brand differentiatorThe importance of staying operationally lean while growing fast — and what George learned from early forecasting mistakesHow event partnerships with EDC, HARD Summer, and Breakaway Music Festival support liquid-to-lips trial with over 300,000 festivalgoersWhy George believes Hiyo can be for hard seltzers and RTDs what Athletic Brewing is for beerLast Call: On Last Call, we dive into a new per-capita wine consumption map from Visual Capitalist and the NIAAA — and what it reveals about:Why wine consumption is lowest in the Midwest and SouthHow D.C. became the nation's most wine-loving "state"The surprising disconnect between income, control states, and wine salesWhy tasting room visitation may be dropping in California — but rising in states like Michigan and VirginiaDon't miss our next episode, dropping on June 4.For the latest updates, follow us:Business of Drinks:YouTubeLinkedInInstagram @bizofdrinksErica Duecy, co-host: Erica Duecy is founder and co-host of Business of Drinks and one of the drinks industry's most accomplished digital and content strategists.

Bret and guest co-host Heather Lalley discuss the latest food and beverage trends and share an interview with Susan Bae, executive pastry chef of Moon Rabbit in Washington, D.C.With the National Restaurant Show in the rearview mirror, Bret Thorn, senior food & beverage editor of Nation's Restaurant News and Restaurant Hospitality, welcomed a guest co-host to the podcast, Heather Lalley, managing editor of sister publications Restaurant Business, Supermarket News, and CSP Daily News. With an expert in the retail space joining the show, Bret and Heather discussed the increasing presence of drinks made with cannabis in that channel. There was also an entire section at the Restaurant Show dedicated to those drinks, with both hosts visited with enthusiasm, and Heather also sat in on a presentation on the potentially thorny legal issues around cannabis, regulations of which vary from state to state.They also discussed some of the plant-based options at the show, which are of particular importance to Heather, who's a pescatarian. Often the meatless options she's presented with at meals, though tasty, tend to lack protein, being made with ingredients such as cauliflower and mushrooms. Then Bret shared an interview with Susan Bae, the executive pastry chef of Moon Rabbit, a Vietnamese-inspired restaurant in Washington, D.C.

What do airplane drinks and discipleship have in common? More than you'd think! This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe is serving up some truth from Doctrine & Covenants 51–57, diving into what it really means to be a wise steward—in both temporal and spiritual things.In this episode, you'll learn:
Beyond noting the obvious increased brand competition when predicting that 2025 would have a crazy marketplace setup developing within RTD protein beverages, I believed that mass and grocery retailers could start giving these products more placements outside of the typical healthy living/pharmacy merchandising sets. But while that remains to be seen within upcoming spring resets, there might be a new dark horse competitor that's already starting to make waves in the refrigerated dairy space. Because while shelf-stable RTD protein beverages are arguably superior for a multitude of business reasons, many of those challenges can more easily be overcome by a large-scale yogurt brand like Chobani. In launching its new protein-forward yogurt drinks, Chobani is hoping to position itself within the prefect intersection of GLP-1 second-order effects and grocery protein-ification.

LADYLIKE - Die Podcast-Show: Der Talk über Sex, Liebe & Erotik
In der aktuellen Ladylike-Podcast-Folge fragen sich Yvonne und Nicole wer eigentlich beim ersten Date die Rechnung übernehmen sollte.Immer der Mann, findet Yvonne, die bei homosexuellen Dates mit Frauen aber auch ganz gerne die Rechnung übernimmt. Nicole mag es dagegen gar nicht, einfach davon auszugehen, dass der Kerl zahlt. Das hat für sie einen faden Beigeschmack. Sie rät dazu, das Finanzielle vorab zu besprechen und nicht einfach zu verfügen. Zum Beispiel könnte man sich gleich für das nächste Date verabreden, wo dann der Eingeladene zahlt, oder sich direkt im Anschluss an das Restaurant mit ein paar Drinks in der nächsten Bar zu revanchieren. Auch die Rechnung im Restaurant zu teilen ist mittlerweile völlig ok. Und es gibt noch jede Menge andere Alternativen, die den peinlichen Moment des Bezahlens beim ersten Date etwas entschärfen. Andererseits gibt es auch Fettnäpfchen, die kaum wieder gutzumachen sind. Auch das besprechen die ganz offen und ehrlich.Hört unbedingt rein in diese neue Podcast-Folge!Habt Ihr selbst erotische Erfahrungen, eine Frage oder Story, über die Yvonne & Nicole im Ladylike-Podcast sprechen sollen?

Story at-a-glance Daily soda drinkers have a 4.69 times higher fracture risk compared to non-drinkers; even one to two sodas weekly increase the risk Soft drinks disrupt calcium-phosphorus balance through phosphoric acid, forcing calcium release from bones even when dietary calcium intake is adequate Diet sodas cause more bone damage than regular sodas, significantly lowering calcium and vitamin D levels and increasing bone breakdown markers The damage to bones happens gradually and silently until fractures occur, making prevention through dietary changes essential Reversing bone damage requires a comprehensive approach: eliminating all sodas, including diet versions, prioritizing mineral-rich whole foods, getting sunlight exposure for vitamin D and incorporating strength training exercises
Chuck Cowdery was called “the dean of American whiskey journalism” by no less than Robert Simonson in the New York Times. So when I decided more than 250 episodes into this podcast to finally devote one to Mexican whiskey, I naturally invited my celebrated drinking buddy over. It's (perhaps) the corniest episode of Agave Road Trip!Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico. This episode is hosted by Lou Bank with special guest Chuck Cowdery and additional wisdom from Ismael Gomez of Laika Spirits, Xaime Navarro of Whisky Juan del Campo and Gracias a Dios Mezcal, Txomin Alcorta of Whisky Prieto y Prieta, and Jonathan Barbieri of Whiskey Maiz Nation!Episode NotesCheck out The Chuck Cowdery Blog!Thanks to Ismael Gomez of Laika Spirits, Xaime Navarro of Gracias a Dios Mezcal and Juan Del Campo Whiskey, Txomin Alcorta of Whisky Prieto y Prieta, and Jonathan Barbieri of Whiskey Maiz Nation for the quotes this episode.You can check out NOM 199 here and to see how the rules for whiskey in Mexico compare to the rules for Mezcal, Tequila, and everything else, check out this spreadsheet.And if the tangent about feni in Goa got you going, check out Hansel Vaz's Instagram page and Fazenda Cazulo!

This episode was recorded before the tragic loss of Li. She was an amazing woman and helped create in the Malmö beer scene. She will be greatly missed. Our hearts go out to Anders, Malmö Taproom and everyone affected by her passing. We haven't reviewed a Malmo Brewing beer from Malmö Taproom in a long time. They got a new head brewer last year and we felt it was time to check in with them to see if things have changed. Björn from Björnguiden joins us this episode. Goodnik is a new hazy IPA made with nelson, waiti and nectaron. This is a really good start and a vast improvement over the hazy IPAs they have been making over the past few years. Malmö Brings all the Boys to the Yard is an imperial milkshake IPA at 10.1% ABV. It's a collab with Finnish brewers Tuju. Made with lactose, peach and vanilla, it was surprisingly drinkable and the 10.1% ABV could not be found. Lastly we tried an imperial pastry stout called Invisible Thunder. Filled with coconut, espresso beans and vanilla, it's also a heavy hitter at 11.3% AVB, This was quite the improvement over what we have tried in the past. Things are really starting to turn around! #beer #craftbeer #drinks #ipa #neipa #hazyipa #imperialstout #milkshakeipa

Welcome back to another episode of Drinks at the Library, the podcast where we pair the perfect drink with the perfect book. Today, we're diving into a love story that bends time and breaks hearts—The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. It's a tale of fate, longing, and the delicate threads that tie us to the people we love...even if time itself tries to pull us apart. My guest this week is Heather Maury, a Richmond-area librarian and a life-long reader. Her favorite book, to this day, is the children's book, "Mandy" by Julie Edwards (better known as Julie Andrews). Anything by TJ Klune and Sadeqa Johnson are instant buys for her. She loves movies, especially anything that Henry Cavill is in, anything that features Tom Cruise running, and anything that's a musical. She is a die-hard Duranie and a certified Swiftie. She lives with 5 cats, 2 dogs, a guinea pig, and some fish. Oh, and she also has two kids (a college freshman and a 1st grader) and a husband. To match this beautifully complex narrative, our drink this week is The Ephemeral Encounter a cocktail plays with the idea of fleeting moments and the blending of different times —just like Henry and Clare's love story. So, pour yourself a glass, get comfortable, and let's unravel the timelines of this unforgettable romance. The "Ephemeral Encounter" Cocktail: This cocktail plays with the idea of fleeting moments and the blending of different times. Ingredients: 1.5 oz Gin (a classic spirit, representing the timeless nature of their love)0.75 oz Elderflower Liqueur (St. Germain, for a touch of ethereal sweetness and floral notes, like fleeting memories)0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice (for a bright, sharp contrast, representing the jarring moments of time travel)0.25 oz Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur (a hint of cherry, for the sweet, romantic core of their relationship, with a slight "old fashioned" feel)2-3 Dashes of Lavender Bitters (to add a calming, slightly mysterious element, like the ever-present mystery of Henry's travels)Sparkling Wine or Soda Water (to top, adding effervescence, like the unpredictable flow of time)Lavender sprig and a cherry, for garnish.

This episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast is brought to you by Dungeon Flow. DungeonFlow.app – Because your dungeon deserves more than graph paper and panic. In Episode 3 of Other Worlds, the RPGBOT crew mixes magical mayhem with mundane mischief. What begins with a hilarious debate on olives and grooming spirals into a multi-layered roleplaying session filled with stealthy maneuvers, magical puzzles, and mirrored mysteries. The players explore the social dynamics of fantasy bartending, wrestle with illusions and invisibility, and uncover a portal to a parallel world that forces them to confront questions of identity and purpose. With spell-slinging, bug-smashing, and some surprisingly emotional moments, this session is a potent cocktail of humor, strategy, and heart. Act I – Table Talk and Tangents The gang opens with hot takes on olives, hair routines, and stream setups. Voice acting tips and character introductions set the stage for the session. A recap of recent events lays the groundwork for what's to come. Act II – Tavern Shenanigans The party takes on bartending duties in a fantasy setting. Hilarity ensues as they roleplay customer service and drink crafting. Pop culture references abound, and creative drink names fly freely. Act III – Into the Shadows Mechanics of invisibility and stealth are explored in detail. Characters face off against unexpected creepy-crawlies. Players rely on teamwork and clever spell use to stay ahead. Act IV – Puzzles and Portals The party investigates a strange magical lab and an ominous mirror. The reflection reveals a world where wilted flowers bloom—a symbol of deeper truths. Themes of rebirth, identity, and past lives emerge through character revelations. Act V – Combat and Consequence A climactic battle tests their knowledge of illusions, scaling, and bleed effects. One character finds themselves in dire straits, prompting an introspective moment. Post-combat reflection ties the adventure to personal growth and group strategy. Act VI – Looking Ahead The session ends with growing tension around a mysterious shard. Teasers hint at major developments in the next installment. Key Takeaways: Roleplaying & Narrative Themes Character development is central to immersion. Humor and personal storytelling enhance group dynamics. Rebirth, identity, and past lives enrich the campaign's emotional core. Game Mechanics & Strategy Invisibility, illusions, and persistent effects like bleed can dramatically shift combat. Understanding spellcasting and tactical positioning is essential in Pathfinder 2e.

This episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast is brought to you by Dungeon Flow. DungeonFlow.app – Because your dungeon deserves more than graph paper and panic. In Episode 3 of Other Worlds, the RPGBOT crew mixes magical mayhem with mundane mischief. What begins with a hilarious debate on olives and grooming spirals into a multi-layered roleplaying session filled with stealthy maneuvers, magical puzzles, and mirrored mysteries. The players explore the social dynamics of fantasy bartending, wrestle with illusions and invisibility, and uncover a portal to a parallel world that forces them to confront questions of identity and purpose. With spell-slinging, bug-smashing, and some surprisingly emotional moments, this session is a potent cocktail of humor, strategy, and heart. Act I – Table Talk and Tangents The gang opens with hot takes on olives, hair routines, and stream setups. Voice acting tips and character introductions set the stage for the session. A recap of recent events lays the groundwork for what's to come. Act II – Tavern Shenanigans The party takes on bartending duties in a fantasy setting. Hilarity ensues as they roleplay customer service and drink crafting. Pop culture references abound, and creative drink names fly freely. Act III – Into the Shadows Mechanics of invisibility and stealth are explored in detail. Characters face off against unexpected creepy-crawlies. Players rely on teamwork and clever spell use to stay ahead. Act IV – Puzzles and Portals The party investigates a strange magical lab and an ominous mirror. The reflection reveals a world where wilted flowers bloom—a symbol of deeper truths. Themes of rebirth, identity, and past lives emerge through character revelations. Act V – Combat and Consequence A climactic battle tests their knowledge of illusions, scaling, and bleed effects. One character finds themselves in dire straits, prompting an introspective moment. Post-combat reflection ties the adventure to personal growth and group strategy. Act VI – Looking Ahead The session ends with growing tension around a mysterious shard. Teasers hint at major developments in the next installment. Key Takeaways: Roleplaying & Narrative Themes Character development is central to immersion. Humor and personal storytelling enhance group dynamics. Rebirth, identity, and past lives enrich the campaign's emotional core. Game Mechanics & Strategy Invisibility, illusions, and persistent effects like bleed can dramatically shift combat. Understanding spellcasting and tactical positioning is essential in Pathfinder 2e. Puzzle-solving encourages creativity and teamwork. Meta & Production Insights Streaming setups and voice acting add value to the actual play experience.

It would be a lot of jobs for China. . .I think it's maybe the most important thing to happen, because if you think about it, we opened up our country to China," Trump said. "They come. We don't.

Paige slid into comedian Karlous Miller's DM's —yes, that Karlous Miller—for a conversation that's a blend of hilarious, unhinged, and surprisingly deep. It all started with a viral reel where Karlous said tall men don't even like tall women (Paige is 5'10", so… rude). Now we're unpacking that take, talking about dating as a tall woman and short man and getting into Karlous's real-life whines—from relationships to his career.

Summer is fast approaching so we wanted to look at some lighter beers. Wapno Lya Belgian Blonde is a 6% ABV that gets a little Belgian-ish without deep diving into the pure Belgian funkyness. Funky Fluid Free Szarlotka is a non-alcoholic apple pie gelato. It really hits the apple and cinnamon notes and feels like it would be a great non-alcoholic beer for the warm summer months. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #belgianblonde #nonalcoholicbeer

What does it take to create a spirits brand that's irresistible to both consumers and potential acquirers? For Elwyn Gladstone, the answer lies in big ideas, bold packaging, and global hustle. Elwyn is the founder of Biggar & Leith, the spirits company behind hits like Malfy Gin, acquired by Pernod Ricard in just four years, and Shanky's Whip, a black Irish whiskey liqueur now sold in 80+ countries and tracking toward 130,000 cases in 2025.In this episode, Elwyn unpacks his approach to building globally resonant brands — from his roots on the teams that launched Hendrick's Gin and Kraken Rum, to creating one of the most original and fastest-scaling brands in Irish whiskey today. With no outside capital and a lean team, he's showing just how far smart storytelling and standout design can take a brand.Elwyn shares:Why differentiation is everything — from liquid to packaging to positioningHow Malfy Gin was built to stand out at shelf with color, Italian provenance, and flavor innovation — and why “lemon gin from Italy” worked everywhereHow Shanky's Whip won over skeptics with a unique flavor (vanilla + caramel + Irish whiskey) and a product story that was fun, not intimidatingWhy Biggar & Leith ignored the “go deep before wide” rule — and built brands in dozens of countries from Day OneHow the team uses a plug-and-play playbook for each market, with toolkits, pricing, and targeted channel strategiesHow Elwyn keeps his team lean (fewer than 10 FT hires), yet executes in 80+ countriesWhat most drinks founders misunderstand about scale, distributor relationships, and brand-building prioritiesLast Call:On Last Call, we're commemorating the 20th anniversary of Granholm, which was decided on May 16, 2005. On Last Call, we're joined by Sean O'Leary of O'Leary Group, one of the country's leading liquor lawyers, to break it all down:Why Granholm helped wineries — but left retailers and spirits brands behindThe legal trends that could reshape shipping againWhere producers are still blocked — and what states to watchWhat smart founders should know about future DTC expansionDon't miss our next episode, dropping on May 21.For the latest updates, follow us:Business of Drinks:LinkedInInstagram @bizofdrinksErica Duecy, co-host: Erica Duecy is founder and co-host of Business of Drinks and one of the drinks industry's most accomplished digital and content strategists.
