Many of the historic brewing yeasts we have today are products of their time and place. The ingredients brewers used with them, the tanks they fermented in, and the styles they made have all played a role in how that yeast grew and hybridized itself over hundreds or thousands of generations. Today, however, brewers typically brew into tanks far different than those of a hundred years ago. The hops they use generally have levels of oil and acids far more concentrated than those of yesteryear. And the flavor and aroma contributions that brewers seek from yeast are more demanding than they've ever been. What does it take, then, to turn yesterday's yeast into tomorrow's? To grow it into the kind of powerhouse that the brewing industry needs for the expressive, flavorful styles that people love to drink? Science offers a number of pathways, but how can it be done without genetic modification, while also optimizing it for drying, so that it's accessible to more brewers in more places around the world? Can all that be done without sacrificing flavor, aroma, and performance? That's the subject of this episode, produced in partnership with White Labs, as we dive into these questions using their new release, WLP079 Suava, as a case study. Joining for the conversation are: Chris White, White Labs founder Richard Preiss, founder of Escarpment Labs Justin Clouthier, head brewer for Willibald Farm Distillery & Brewery in Ayr, Ontario, Canada

Alfonso Ussía pudo haber sido un zángano del barrio de Salamanca, pero eligió trabajar duro para algún día -vana ilusión- no tener que trabajar. Alfonso fue pilarista con acné, confesor sin permiso papal, licenciado en puestas de largo, cabo instructor, corredor de seguros y reaseguros, judoka del Pireo, cantaor de flamenco en portugués, aventurero en el Amazonas y -last but non least- pollo de barra. Su adolescencia fueron recuerdos de larguísimos veraneos en San Sebastián, con canciones de Jacques Brel como música de fondo, jersey sobre los hombros y pellizcos a traición a la novia, propia o ajena. En San Sebastián, Ussía jugaba al tenis con una chica rubia, a la que llamaban Hoppy, que de mayor sería presidenta de Madrid, y al fútbol en la playa con un atormentado niño bien, al que apodó Pertur, y que años después ingresaría en ETA para no salir ya vivo. Su primer trabajo en prensa fue a las órdenes de Janli Cebrián. En los servicios de documentación de ‘Informaciones', Ussía coincidió con los entonces también jovencísimos María Antonia Iglesias, José Luis Martín Prieto, Víctor de la Serna y Jimmy Giménez Arnau. Su debut en el periodismo literario vino de la mano de Antonio Gala, que lo llevó a 'Sábado Gráfico'. Fue en el despacho del editor, Eugenio Suárez, donde una bala por poco le perfora la oreja a Ussía; no fue culpa de la bala, sino de la oreja. De ‘Sábado Gráfico' la pluma de Alfonso voló como un mosquito -como un tábano- por otras redacciones, hasta aterrizar en la de ‘ABC'. Allí firmó durante años. Luego, en ‘La Razón', de donde salió aparatosamente. Que al hombre no le gusta que le toquen ni una coma. En periodismo y literatura, Ussía lo hizo todo, salvo un perfil largo sobre Don Juan de Borbón y una comedia ligera. Uno y otra habrían sido un bombazo. El tío siempre fue garantía de éxito.

Hoppy Quick has been chainsaw carving bears in the Catskills since 1979 — but he'll tell you he's not an artist. He's a spiritual being who found himself through the bear.In this wide-ranging conversation, we visit Hoppy at his home in Samsonville — a converted 1951 school bus, a canvas teepee workshop, a crackling fire ring, and a horse named Ginny — and quickly discover that a conversation about whittling wood leads somewhere much deeper.We talk about his 47-year search for the perfect bear face, carving as meditation, and what it means to live in grace. Hoppy shares the story behind the Heart Tribe, his COVID-era community of tens of thousands, and reflects on ego, fear, the divine feminine, AI, and why he believes the path forward is exactly 16 inches — from your head to your heart.As the world seems to be straining at its seams, Hoppy emerges like a bear from the tree line — unexpected, unhurried, and offering a wise and grounding call to our higher selves.
