This week's long-form episode is a syndication of a panel discussion Trevor hosted with on the 6ix platform earlier in the week titled, "How a Strong Gold Market May Impact Juniors in 2024." On the panel, Trevor took to a conversation with 3 different CEOs, including Luke Alexander of Newcore Gold, Brian Skanderbeg of GFG Resources, and James Atkinson of Advanced Gold Exploration. In the conversation, I pose a number of different questions to the group about a nature of new capital finding a home in junior exploration equities. Despite a rising gold price, the volumes in exploration stocks remain subdued. When will this change and why do investors remain on the sidelines? Along with these important questions, we also tackle inflationary risks on exploration teams and their access to financings. This episode of Mining Stock Daily is brought to you by...

This week Matt has a very personal conversation with Chuck Hahn. Chuck is no stranger to our listeners and has graced this podcast a number of times over the decade plus we have been doing it. However, late last year Chuck quietly retired from Lion. We wanted to have one more chat with Chuck (we don't want to call it the last, we are hoping we can lure him back from time to time) because there have been few larger influences over the Australia brewing scene, or more passionate ambassadors for beer. If you would like to know more about Chuck's stellar career, check out James Atkinson's excellent documentary podcast on Chuck recorded to celebrate his 50 years in brewing.

Ep 162 - *Bonus Episode* - Drinks Adventures Podcast with Mikey Enright, Julian Train and Tim Stones from Hickson House in bringing distilling to Sydney CBD About this special bonus podcast: Founded in 2018, Drinks Adventures is a unique podcast covering the world of alcoholic beverages with a sense of adventure and discovery. Drinks Adventures has to date has played host to some of the world's biggest names in wine, beer, whisky, gin, sake, cider and more. Memorable guests include actor and winemaker Sam Neill; musician and winemaker Maynard James Keenan; and techno artist and sake aficionado Richie Hawtin. Drinks Adventures is produced and hosted by renowned drinks journalist James Atkinson, a Certified Cicerone® and the only dual winner of Best Media at the Australian International Beer Awards (2017 and 2021). About this episode: The hospitality veterans have teamed up with distiller Tim Stones, most recently of Manly Spirits in Sydney. Hickson House will be producing gins, aperitifs, whiskies and specialist spirits crafted with locally-sourced ingredients, such as native botanicals from The Loch farm in Berrima, NSW. There will be immersive, experiential tours, culminating with tastings, a spirit store and private dining experiences; with a mezzanine lounge sitting above an expansive bar, serving bespoke cocktails alongside a botanical-inspired menu. The total business covers 450 square metres with 180sqm dedicated to the bar, kitchen and mezzanine area. The space is designed by Sydney's Steel & Stitch and Sara Mathers from the UK, working together to create a New York warehouse-style bar beside an active distillery. As you'll hear in this episode, some of the other details are still under wraps. I did what I could to get as much info as possible for you. Now, as there are more voices in this episode than we're accustomed to, it probably helps to tell you that Julian is the one with the Australian accent. But it's Mikey you'll hear from first up, giving you the background on how the project was first conceived.

We talk about what it's like coming to another country for camp, funny stories that happened when he worked at camp, as well as how James has been helping himself and other during the pandemic, as well as Keeping the Fires Burning. Check out his website here: www.mylifeinlockdown.net.
What does it take to become a successful YouTube hairdresser? Well this is what we are to learn about in todays episode as we are joined by the UK's leading YouTube hairdresser, James Atkinson (aka The Life of Hair). Currently with 30K subscribers and over one million downloads, it's fair to say James knows a thing or two when it comes to finding success on YouTube. And today he's going to share that journey with us all. I'm sure it will motivate you to why you need to be creating great video content on YouTube, too. Tired and frustrated of going the traditional route of entering industry awards and competitions to grow his hairdressing profile, James instead turned his attentions to becoming a content video creator. How this has paid off for him! It was after hearing my interview with another successful UK YouTube hairdresser, Austin Thomson, sparked the moment for James to take his first tentative steps into becoming a video creator. In our conversation today he will be explaining how he went from creating video content for Instagram to YouTube, and in doing so, helped him go on to be an educator across Europe plus adding financial freedom to his hairdressing career. Sounds good? With YouTube dominating the long-form video content, it was the platform James saw best to demonstrate his teaching skills. But don't think it's for everyone as James says, "You can't turn up to YouTube without no teaching skills. For me YouTube is an extension of what I've learned." With this in mind you need to understand why you want to be a YouTube hairdresser, what you will be sharing in your videos and what are your skills best suited too. Not sure, then fear not. This is something James will be helping you with today. Lets get stuck in! Become a Patreon Fan Club member of the How To Cut It Podcast A podcast produced by Hairy Media Productions.

This week on Beer is a Conversation, James Atkinson and Pete Mitcham are joined by Steve Carpenter, Chief Operations Officer at Yakima Chief-Hopunion, a global hop supplier headquartered in Yakima USA. His family has been growing hops in the Yakima Valley since 1869, so it's fair to say the business of hop growing is in his blood. He talked about current trends in the hop sector and the challenges facing growers in a rapidly evolving craft beer market. Enjoy the conversation.

This week on Beer is a Conversation we have the last interview from our recent swing through Sydney' inner-west breweries and feature our conversation with Steve Drissell of Sydney's Staves Brewery. Hidden away in a back alley in Glebe, Staves is one of Sydney's more unique brewery venues, featuring English-style pub atmosphere and a live performance space that is well known on the city's music and comedy circuit. Staves has continually impressed with its idiosyncratic line-up of beers, which are made on a tiny and somewhat makeshift brewery, showing stylistic influences from all over Europe and America. Matt Kirkegaard and James Atkinson visited the brewery late last year to catch up with Steve, who left his career in the corporate world to follow his dream of opening Staves. We hope you enjoy the conversation.

This week on Beer is a Conversation, James Atkinson catches up with Will Tatchell, founder of Van Dieman Brewing in Northern Tasmania. Founder and Head Brewer, Will got into brewing as a distraction during University years, whilst studying Agricultural Science, and came to see the brewing industry as an extension of the primary industry he'd grown up in. Upon completing university, he sought further experience in the brewing sector and travelled to the United Kingdom to immerse himself within the history rich brewing sector. Returning to his home he started planning for his brewery in 2007 and launched in 2009. Will's experience and passions have recently merged in Van Dieman's Estate Ale beers, brewed with malt, water, hops and yeast grown on the family farm in Tasmania, which is unique not only in Australia but globally. Enjoy the conversation.

This week on Beer is a Conversation we play an interview James Atkinson recorded recently with Ken Stout and Dave Tohtz of Goose Island Brewing. Both Ken and Dave have been with the Goose Island business since before it was acquired by the world's largest brewer, ABInBev, in 2011. A longtime beer industry professional, Ken joined the Chicago brewer as regional sales director in 2009, eventually becoming its president and general manager in 2015, and more recently, the president of its international division. The new role gives Ken oversight for the ambitious international rollout of the Goose Island brand by ABI. Dave Tohtz meanwhile notched up his tenth year as a brewer at Goose Island during 2017. Dave and Ken have been in Australia over the last fortnight for Goose Island's Migration Week campaign and I caught up with them at Two Birds Brewing's The Nest in Melbourne for an all-encompassing chat about their time at Goose Island, the changes they have witnessed since ABI took over and their impressions of the Australian market. Full disclosure, Goose Island has done some advertising around the Migration Week initiative on the Brews News website, but this interview was done completely separately. Enjoy the conversation.

This week in Radio Brews News, Matt and Pete discuss all the beer news for the week ending 8 July. We discuss: Independence Day – the launch by the Independent Brewers Association of their Independent Brewing Industry National Economic Evaluation. Matt and James Atkinson also caught up with IBA Executive Officer, Chris McNamara. We discuss this quote from 4 Pines' Jaron Mitchell: “I think it's one of the stupidest things I've seen. There's no industry on the planet that has benefited from artificial relief from a government. Essentially, it creates a vacuum for inefficient people who are wasting resources to get a $350,000 rebate. If you can't run a brewing business based on fundamental economics, you shouldn't be running a brewing business.” The Great Northern Hotel / Holgate kerfuffle. Should bottleshops limit the sale of single beers, and force drinkers to buy four packs? Drinkers get fresh with US brewers: American craft brewers have copped another hiding for their perceived lack of commitment to ensuring their beers reach Australian drinkers in the same optimal condition they demand at home. Including a reference to our past interview with Greg Koch from Stone. ABI's The High End craft division responds to the Brewers' Association's Independence Seal.

This week's episode is a reply of our live countdown of the GABS Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beers of 2015, recorded on Australia Day 2016. The recording quality isn't great as we picked up some refrigeration compressor noise as we recorded at Brisbane's Green Beacon Brewery, but the conversation was excellent. Matt is joined by Australian Brews News editor James Atkinson and we cross to Pete Mitcham at The Local Taphouse, St Kilda. During the long show we speak with Michael Cameron from Pirate Life, Corey Crooks from The Grain Store, Jaron Mitchell from 4 Pines, Brendan Varis from Feral Brewing and Ross Jurisich from Stone & Wood. Don't forget to send us your feedback, or leave a voice mail by calling (07) 3040 1508, that we'll play on our next show.

In a bumper, but Prof-less, episode Matt catches up with Toohey's Brewery Director Mark Toomey to learn all about the new Toohey's Darling Pale Ale. Sections of social media have delighted in sneering at the media release describing the beer as 'unchallenging' but we learn from Mark that the beer is all malt, uses a blend of Galaxy, Willamette and Amarillo hops and the Tooheys ale yeast. It may be subtle - restrained even - but with Little Creatures' broadened distribution for Furphy and other launches planned in the near future it does give an indication as to where Lion sees the beer market going. But first we catch up with 'Gen Y' nutritionist Rosie Mansfield and chat Dry July. Rosie says Dry July can help develop a more balanced attitude to drinking and kick start healthier habits for life, and while we're for beer we're also all for the message of moderation. We then chat with James Hird, the current Good Food Sommelier of the Year. Hird caused quote a bit of controversy on Brews News this week when he told editor James Atkinson of his love for Resch's and described some craft beer as being similar to the overblown wines of the 80s. Facebook comments on the article were indignant that a 'wine' sommelier would have thoughts on beer, even though the typical sommelier guides the venues entire drink list. We thought we'd have a chat to James to dig a little deeper into his thoughts on beer, wine and being a sommelier.
