4-7-26 Tonight we're getting back together with Carlos Herrera, owner and Meadmaker at Texas Longhouse Meadery in Wylie, Texas. Carlos is the owner and mead maker of Texas Longhouse Meadery, where Nordic inspiration and Texas craft meet in the glass. With over two dozen awards and a passion for building community through mead, Carlos is also the President of the Texas Mead Association, working to grow the mead industry and bring more people into the Longhouse. Carlos, an Army Veteran, a Paramedic, and a Diplomatic Security Specialist, started learning how to make mead from an outgoing mentor. After learning the basics from his mentor, Carlos was injured at work and was sent home to recover. While home recovering from multiple surgeries, he set out to improve his new hobby. After many hours reading, researching, and experimenting Carlos fell in love with mead and really started to hone his craft of mead making. Fast forward several years and Carlos was really making waves in his new endeavors by entering many Mead competitions, winning awards, and giving his fellow competing mead makers quality feedback as a BJCP (Beer Judge Certification Program) Certified Mead Judge.

3-24-26 Tonight we're talking with Melody and Kyle Stout, the new owners of Spacetime Mead and Cider in Dunmore, PA. They bought and took over Spacetime from owner and mead-maker Dan Schreffler has retired to take time for, well, whatever he decides to do on any given day. They are the next generation for Space Time! Melody began homebrewing in fall 2021, and really got into it, like it does for so many. She continued and got her BCJP Mead Judge certification in spring 2024. Her meads have done well in competition, including at Valhalla, the Mead Stampede and Your Honey or Your Life. Medaled in multiple competitions including Valhalla; Mead Stampede, and Your Honey or Your Life In late 2025, Melody and Kyle bought Spacetime from Dan, and  Melody and Kyle will be working closely with Dan to fully transition the winery into their care over the next few years. Kyle isn't a mead maker, but he is handling the marketing side of the meadery. “We make high-quality craft mead and cider with high-quality ingredients and local ingredients as much as possible. And we typically make sci-fi and fantasy-themed meads and ciders, along with some others. We're very focused on providing the highest quality and the most excellent product that we can provide,” said Stout. Stout said Space Time's offerings are locally inspired, and she shares some of the fan-favorite selections. “One of the things that sets us apart is that we are a PA Preferred Winery, which means that about 75% of our product is made using local ingredients. That's not very common in this area. There's not a lot of PA Preferred Winery, and we're very proud of receiving that designation. So, it's really important to us to maintain that designation and have products that are high-quality and locally inspired,” said Stout.

Founded in 2018, they have experienced rapid growth in the early years of operation and disappointment in the post COVID years.

2-3-26 We're doing a pre-recorded episode today! We are talking with Krzysztof Jarek and Mateusz "maTEJ" Błaszczyk, meadmakers and founders of the Mead Madness Cup and the European Mead Makers Association. Kings of Mead represent the powerhouse duo of Krzysztof Jarek and Mateusz "maTEJ" Błaszczyk, two recognizable mead authorities in Europe. Hailing from Poland—the global heart of mead tradition—both have been crafting mead for over 15 years, blending deep-rooted heritage with modern innovation. As cornerstones of the global mead community, they launched their YouTube channel over 8 years ago, becoming pioneers in digital mead education and inspiring a generation of makers worldwide. As Master MJP (Mead Judging Programme) judges, they have trained the vast majority of European mead judges, conducting certification courses across the UK, South Korea, Belgium, Poland, Lithuania, Spain, Norway, Italy, and Mexico. Their leadership is fundamental to the industry: Mateusz "maTEJ" Błaszczyk is the visionary initiator of both the European Mead Makers Conference (EMMcon) and the Mead Madness Cup. He is also a published author of books on mead making. Krzysztof Jarek has served as the Director of the Mead Madness Cup since 2019, overseeing its growth into one of largest and most prestigious competitions. In a landmark move for the industry, Kings of Mead are coming to the USA this year to conduct the first-ever MJP (Mead Judge Programme) training in the United States. This historic event marks a bridge between the ancient traditions of Europe and the vibrant, growing American mead scene.

1-27-26 Tonight we're talking with Ryan Carlson again. He had a lot of information, and we just ran out of time last time! Ryan is a Colorado mead maker who has been making mead for quite a while. Those of you who have listened to the early GML episodes may remember him. He has been quiet publicly  for a few years, dealing with personal things, but during that quiet time, he's also been doing a lot of learning and experimentation to deepen his mead making expertise. I'll just let Ryan tell you himself: Hi, my name is Ryan. Some of you will know me from the mead world going back a long way. Some of you won't know me at all — and that's just fine. I was very active in mead for many years, right up until around 2020. Then life hit hard. Multiple things at once. Survival mode. For about five years I was mostly just circling the drain and trying to stay upright. Things are finally closer to normal now, and I guess you could say I'm back in the saddle. I've been a successful meadmaker for a long time. I'm a certified judge. I've taught hundreds of people — maybe more — how to make good mead. I love teaching, but I'm picky about it. I only teach what I've lived. I only teach what I can prove. If someone wants receipts, I can bury Mount Rushmore with them. I also teach mead in a way most people have never experienced. From here forward, I'll be approaching things a little differently. We're going to “get small.” We're going to pretend we're a single-celled yeast and jump down inside Mead City. We'll look at fermentation from the inside of the vessel outward and change our perspective completely. Mead is going to do what mead does. Yeast is going to do what yeast does. When we actually understand the science and biology, our job isn't control — it's assistance. We learn when the window opens, and when it does, we can hand the yeast exactly what they need so they can do the job they were already built to do. Most of the time, when people don't understand what's happening, they get in the way. They step on the yeast without realizing it. They try to force outcomes that biology simply doesn't allow, and they miss the chance to co-create. My goal is to help raise everyone's bar by changing perspective first, then layering in real science and real biology — not folklore, not wives' tales, and not parroted bad science. If you want to understand mead well enough that you don't have to beg for recipes anymore — recipes that often produce mediocre results at best — then this is a good place to sit down with us and learn the craft the way it's actually lived.

1-27-26 Tonight we're talking with Ryan Carlson again. He had a lot of information, and we just ran out of time last time! Ryan is a Colorado mead maker who has been making mead for quite a while. Those of you who have listened to the early GML episodes may remember him. He has been quiet publicly  for a few years, dealing with personal things, but during that quiet time, he's also been doing a lot of learning and experimentation to deepen his mead making expertise. I'll just let Ryan tell you himself: Hi, my name is Ryan. Some of you will know me from the mead world going back a long way. Some of you won't know me at all — and that's just fine. I was very active in mead for many years, right up until around 2020. Then life hit hard. Multiple things at once. Survival mode. For about five years I was mostly just circling the drain and trying to stay upright. Things are finally closer to normal now, and I guess you could say I'm back in the saddle. I've been a successful meadmaker for a long time. I'm a certified judge. I've taught hundreds of people — maybe more — how to make good mead. I love teaching, but I'm picky about it. I only teach what I've lived. I only teach what I can prove. If someone wants receipts, I can bury Mount Rushmore with them. I also teach mead in a way most people have never experienced. From here forward, I'll be approaching things a little differently. We're going to “get small.” We're going to pretend we're a single-celled yeast and jump down inside Mead City. We'll look at fermentation from the inside of the vessel outward and change our perspective completely. Mead is going to do what mead does. Yeast is going to do what yeast does. When we actually understand the science and biology, our job isn't control — it's assistance. We learn when the window opens, and when it does, we can hand the yeast exactly what they need so they can do the job they were already built to do. Most of the time, when people don't understand what's happening, they get in the way. They step on the yeast without realizing it. They try to force outcomes that biology simply doesn't allow, and they miss the chance to co-create. My goal is to help raise everyone's bar by changing perspective first, then layering in real science and real biology — not folklore, not wives' tales, and not parroted bad science. If you want to understand mead well enough that you don't have to beg for recipes anymore — recipes that often produce mediocre results at best — then this is a good place to sit down with us and learn the craft the way it's actually lived.

Prior to the 1980 season, Chuck Grall built a somewhat controversial race car dubbed the "Imposter Impala."Chuck battled in the loaded sportsman division field in Fox River Racing Club (FRRC) competition at Wisconsin International Raceway in Kaukauna, Wisconsin.Listen in to episode # 3 as Chuck details the drama surrounding the construction of this fast hot rod!

I'm giving this cough until the end of the week and then I might need to go into the minute clinic and see about some 'scrips. It's gotten better, but I can't seem to shake it completely. Needless to say, it's "Workforce Wednesday" today, so let's get over that hump! Lots of stuff in the news this morning, including the death of legendary game show host - Wink Martindale, a deadly crash in Eau Claire yesterday, the search for a missing boater in the Dells continues, several programs are being cut in the Prairie du Chien school district, the Northern Lights might be visible tonight in Wisconsin, and a Kwik Trip in Kaukauna just sold a winning lottery ticket! In sports, a recap of last night's NBA play-in tournament games and a look ahead at tonight's schedule. Plus, the Brewers shutout the Tigers last night, and Damian Lillard is still recovering from the blood clots in his leg and will likely miss the entire first round of the playoffs. Elsewhere in sports, the game between the Red Sox & Rays last night got delayed by a very annoying sound, a tennis player accused her opponent of not wearing deodorant, and the scumbag who killed the Gaudreau brothers tried to have the charges dropped. Today is "National Banana Day" and eating them is certainly good for your health. So is exercise. But if you're not into spending a few hours at the gym, there's a new health hack that might be right up your alley. Yesterday, we talked about a police officer from Philly who saved a five year-old who managed to get on the roof of his house, and today it's a story about a dog that got trapped on the roof of a home. Plus a marathon pickleball game that raised a bunch of money for charity. Having trouble waking up? Feeling groggy & grouchy in the morning? There's a new "perfect" way to wake up, apparently. A receipt is going viral for a "bitching fee" that was added because the customer received an incorrect order. We continued to talk about Spring cleaning this morning…moving from the house to the garage. Did you see the Braves sideline reporter who asked a young lady for her phone number during a recent game? Well, the internet has BIG feelings about his actions. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who married a river, a guy who called in a bomb threat hoax for a cruise ship, a woman who took a big shit in a beer cave, a guy in Scotland who had a LEGO piece stuck in his ear for 20 years, and a #FloridaWoman who tried selling human remains on Facebook marketplace.

In the 1970's and into the early 1980's, Chuck Grall enjoyed racing on both the asphalt of WIR in Kaukauna and Saturday on the dirt at Shawano Speedway.In episode # 2, Grall describes the lengths he would go through to maintain a car to race on both surfaces.Enjoy episode # 2!

It's time to get out the vote in Wisconsin for the Spring Election. We review news that the state supreme court race will shatter all spending records for the prized judicial seat that will determine control of the state' highest court. We discuss the critical importance of talking directly to potential voters the final 4 days and encourage our listeners to volunteer with Citizen Action on phones or doors. RSVP to talk to voters. Next week is the start of the Joint Finance Committee public hearings on the State Budget, next Wednesday in Kaukauna and Friday in West Allis. We encourage people in each area to consider attending in support of expanding BadgerCare and other state budget priorities. We welcome back to the show, Timothy Faust, Citizen Action's healthcare coordinator, who just returned from a week-long tour of rural Wisconsin hosting Hands Off Medicaid Town Halls to organize opposition to Congressional Republicans proposed cuts to Medicaid. Contact Tim: Timothy.Faust@citizenactionwi.org We close the show with a review of this week's PSC public hearing on We Energies desire to build polluting gas plants. Robert educates us on why the gas plant is a bad idea.

The Dairy Streamlet is a condensed version of a long Dairy Stream episode and covers the high-level points of the conversation. If this topic interest you, then listen to the full episode on Dec. 11. This three-part series is sponsored by BMO. About the guests: Ken Verhasselt is the owner of Verhasselt Farms in Kaukauna, Wisconsin where they milk 4,000 cows and farm 5,000 acres.   Don Adams of BMO manages a portfolio of production agricultural relationships that focus mainly on dairy, and has just shy of 40 years of experience in the banking industry, with 37 of those years being with BMO.    This podcast is co-produced by the Dairy Business Association and Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative, sister organizations that fight for effective dairy policy in Wisconsin and Washington, D.C.  Become a sponsor, share an idea or feedback by emailing podcast@dairyforward.com.  Attend Dairy Strong on Jan. 15-16 in Green Bay, Wisconsin to hear from inspiring speakers and experts on policy, sustainability and the future of dairy.
