Sunday 28th September 2025 - West and North SitesSpeaker - Alice MeadsFor our special Try Church Sunday service, Alice recounts the story that Jesus told that we know as "The Prodigal Son", which reveals the heart of God the Father towards us.____________Luke 15: 11- 3211) Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12) The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property between them.13) “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14) After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15) So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16) He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.17) “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18) I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19) I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.' 20) So he got up and went to his father.“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.21) “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'22) “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23) Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. 24) For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate.25) “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26) So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27) ‘Your brother has come,' he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'28) “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29) But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30) But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!'31) “‘My son,' the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32) But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.'”____________Recorded at North Site - 28Sep2025

8-12-25 Tonight we're talking with Matthew Mead, a home meadmaker who has burned up the competitions over the last couple years with his excellent mead. He has set out to win in competitions in every US state. And so far he's doing really well! Matthew been making mead since around 2017, he got into making meads when a local friend who was opening up his own meadery told him with his last name he needed to start making mead. He started entering his meads into competitions to get better feedback on them and from there he joined Modern Mead Makers on Facebook to learn how to make better meads. His first mead wins were the Texas Mead cup around 2018 and that got him hooked into competitive homebrewing which eventually led him into judging.Matthew is one of the few BJCP Beer, Mead and Cider Judges. He is well known for his excellent cherry meads using local fruit and honey. Matt has a wife and two kids, his daughter is 18 and about to go to college, and his son is almost 13. They put up with his homebrewing mess around the house for the most part but they do love his wins and celebrate dad when he wins. Sometimes he talks them into tagging along with him to pick fruit or go to his competition / judging weekends. Matthew is a member of a couple Michigan Homebrew clubs: PrimeTime Brewers, Keepers of Kraft, Michigan Mead Coalition. He is also a member of the Master Homebrewer Program with a rank of Grandmaster V, with Master of Mead, Cidermaster, Golden Gavel and Jack of all Trades awards. Matt has multiple best of show wins over the years for Beers, Meads and Ciders at various US competitions. Last year he managed four Mazer cups wins, which was a personal best for him. He has won medals at Mead Madness in Poland twice. He haswon medals in both Canada and Mexico mead competitions. He usually finishes in the Top 5 for meadmaker of the year. Matt is not listed this year because hedid not renew my membership. Matthew's goal last year was to win a medal in every state that offered a homebrew competition. He managed to complete that early this year with a win in South Carolina.  If there are any homebrew competitions in DL, HI, ME, MS, MT, SD, WV let Matt know. His latest big win was that he won Amateur Grand Champion at the Indiana State Fair for winning a Silver in Weissbier, a gold in Traditional Mead, a gold in Fruit Mead, a gold Perry and a Silver for Indiana made cider. He took 3rd for Best of Show Mead/Cider as well. Join us to talk mead with Matthew! To listen live, you can find us on Youtube, Twitch, X (Twitter), and Facebook on the Gotmead Page.

Eric Depradine of Zydeco Meadery crafts mead with Heart, Honey, and Heritage As securing permission, Eric was able to start his fermentation journey in high school with a science project using cane juice. That spark stayed with him through his time in Louisiana and Kansas, eventually shaping what is now Zydeco Meadery in North Attleborough, Massachusetts. Eric Depradine What makes these meads so special? Zydeco Meadery weaves Eric's Caribbean heritage into every bottle. Drawing from Trinidadian traditions like “Sorrel”, a spiced hibiscus drink served during holidays, Eric reimagines this ancestral recipes by using honey instead of cane sugar. Each mead showcases distinctive honey varietals, from Louisiana wildflower to Massachusetts knotweed, adding layers of terroir that reflect the regions that shaped him. The result is a line of meads that are bold, balanced, and culturally rich—fermented expressions of family, migration, and memory. Meads and Cysers Featured in this Chat Carnival Rose Carbonated hibiscus mead rooted in Caribbean sorrel tradition 12% ABV, spiced, bold, festive Named in honor of Calypso Rose, the first female calypsonian Yankee Heritage Cyser Apple, raisin, and knotweed honey Inspired by colonial cider traditions and Bear Swamp Orchard & Cidery which is in Ashfield, Massachusetts but is no longer open.

Sunday 25th May 2025 - Central AM & PMSunday 1st June 2026 - West and North SitesSpeaker: Alice MeadsAlice helps us to develop an important tool for us to share the Gospel - the ability to share the story of our own journey into faith in Jesus. Reminding us of Peter's instruction that we must "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have", she encourages us to prepare a short version of our story - just one or two minutes - which we can be ready to share whenever we get the opportunity.To help in this, Alice suggests that we record the answers the following questions: 1. How did you come to follow Jesus? 2. What difference has this made in your life? - Where were you before? - Where are you now? - Where do you want to be? Key words that may help you answer this: purpose, meaning, forgiveness, freedom, love, family, wholeness, acceptance, identity (taken from Phill Knox: Story Bearer, p57) 3. What is the invitation to the person listening?_________________1 Peter 3 v 8-168) Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble. 9) Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. 10) For,“Whoever would love life    and see good daysmust keep their tongue from evil    and their lips from deceitful speech.11) They must turn from evil and do good;    they must seek peace and pursue it.12) For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”13) Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? 14) But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.”15) But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16) keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. _________________________Recorded at North Site - 01Jun2025

5-20-25 Tonight we're hanging out with Joe and Tricia Marshall, owner of Lily Belle Meads in Lancaster, NY. This husband and wife team are kicking it outside Buffalo with their meads! Joe and Tricia's journey into mead was gradual but Tricia definitely led the charge on it.  In 2004 Tricia got Joe a home brewing beer kit for his 26th birthday and got herself a winemaking kit for his 26th birthday!   She made wines, Joe made beers.  Tricia's personal goal was to make a delicious blueberry wine.  She wasn't happy with the results, so she did some research and found that she could replace the white sugar in the wine must with honey.  Well,, that changed everything and she never went back to making wine again.  It was all mead from then on.  Tricia won an amatuer award for one of her meads, that started all this.   Joe was home brewing with a group and they had plans of a brewery but none of them would pull the trigger.  Tricia's meads were great, but they were standard strength or higher…she wanted to start selling them but Joe just couldn't see how when it took so long for them to make. Then in 2012 or so she started making some 9-10% abv meads and it got Joe thinking…why couldn't they make meads that were more like beers along with the honey wine style ones?  From there on in it was a lot of 1 gallon experimental batches for the next 2-3 years as they developed a business plan.  They incorporated in April of 2014. In 2016, Joe and Tricia got their commercial license and started selling at the various farmer's markets.  It was at an indoor Farmer's Market that they met John and Cathy Cimperman from 42N Brewing Company in nearby East Aurora NY and they asked if Joe and Tricia like to be part of the Full Circle Fest.  That led to another brew festival and from there it was a whirlwind and they opened their tasting room on W, Main St. in Lancaster NY on Sept 23, 2017.  Lancaster is about 20 minutes east of Buffalo NY.  Go Bills! (Go Lions! - Vicky) Lilly Belle was the first meadery in Erie County and was embraced by the local craft beer scene where Joe and Tricia found niched out their place and eventually took their 7-8% session meads down to 5% and that has been a game changer for them.  They use a variety of yeasts, including wine and beer styles, and they are not shy to play around with flavors.  They can turn around session meads in 2-3 weeks and most traditionals and melomels in 2-3 months.  They also do some bochet's and those are 2-3 months as well.  They have expanded their food menu and kitchen operations, added more space and entertainment options in the taproom, they expanded production capacity by 5x and probably the biggest change was how much Mead we package in bottles and cans.  Their initial model was to sell more by the glass in our taproom but that all changed with Covid.  Covid was the biggest obstacle they had no way of predicting.  The world is "back to normal" in many ways but the 2 years of Covid changed customer habits, wants, needs and expectations and they've been evolving to meet all of these ever since.  They've also entered a National Mead Competition the past 2 years and taken 2nd place overall and last year 1st place overall. Tricia started her career at Roswell Park Cancer Institute as a floor nurse, then moved onto Research Nursing, onto Assistant Corporate Compliance Officer then Senior Quality Analyst.  She stepped away in 2015 to put time into growing Lilly Belle Meads, but continued to work part-time jobs.  During the pandemic, she found herself working a med-surg floor at BGH.  Such an eye opening experience to witness how the pandemic rocked the healthcare system.  She spent 2 years full time at the meadery but now finds herself back at Roswell, in a job that is 80% remote thanks to the pandemic.  Joe's current role is Budget Compliance Specialist in the Clinical Trials Office and he loves it!   Joe was a Special Education Preschool Teacher for Gateway-Longview...

5-6-25 - Tonight we're talking with Alen RadoŠević with Fool Moon Meadery in Romania. Alen makes excellent mead and has a meadery that sells in Romania only (for now). Alen is owner and meadmaker at FoolMoon Transilvania - Romania. Alen is Certified through the Level 2 Mead Judging Program at the European Mead Makers Association. He is also winner of gold and silver medals at the 2025 Mead Madness CUP (MMC). Alen is relatively new to mead, but it hasn't slowed him down at all. He's been making mead since 2020, and has a long family tradition of making wine and rakija. Somewhere in 2020, Alen switched from sourdough to mead because he wanted to feed his sourdough with honey. There was a small experimental batch and it grew into passion. Fool Moon opened in 2023, but didn't go public until 2024, after wending their way through a mess of paperwork in Romania. I got to meet him and sample his mead, and hang out at the Copa Hidromiel 2024 in Mexico City, where he nabbed a couple medals. Join us to talk mead with Alen!

Sunday 30th March 2025 - West and North SitesSpeaker - Matthew MeadsMatt continues our Easter 2025 series looking at one of the key events of the week leading to the crucifixion of the Lord, focusing on his final meal, shared with his disciples._________________Matthew 28 v 17-3017) On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”18) He replied, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with My disciples at your house.'” 19) So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover. 20) When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the Twelve. 21) And while they were eating, He said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”22) They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, “Surely you don't mean me, Lord?”23) Jesus replied, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray me. 24) The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”25) Then Judas, the one who would betray him, said, “Surely You don't mean me, Rabbi?”Jesus answered, “You have said so.”26) While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is My body.”27) Then He took a cup, and when He had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28) This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.29) I tell you, I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom.”30) When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.___________________Recorded at West Site - 30Mar2025

1-14-25 Tonight at 9PM ET, we're talking with Kyle Ducharme and Bill Boyer Bill is in the Minnesota Mead Mafia, and if you've competed, you know he makes good mead. Kyle is from Vermont and has been tearing up the mead world as well. We're going to be exploring what they've done with their meads, and how they put their recipes together. We'll also be talking about chocolate meads! Kyle Ducharme from Northern Vermont and is a home mead maker that has experience with quality assurance positions in the food and beverage industries. He has been making mead since the fall of 2019, really diving deep during the pandemic. He originally learned from podcasts/youtubers such as Gotmead, The Mead House, Doin the Most, and Man Made Mead. He later joined his homebrew club where he discovered some other mead makers, but mainly beer brewers and judges. He was motivated by the online community to enter competitions and after winning some medals, he entered more competitions to get feedback and improve his skills. That was a valuable step, but becoming a beer and mead judge was really what made him grow exponentially in his mead making. By traveling to learn from others and to judge meads, he could bring that knowledge to others in his homebrew club and online communities. Outside of competing and judging comps, he has started a mead class and small Iron Bee style mead competition to share knowledge/feedback with others. His major goal is to create another major mead competition in New England and to bring up the homebrew mead scene in the area. He is passionate about using foraged ingredients and fruit from local farmers and utilizing honey from all over the world. His parents own a small hop yard and that is what got him initially interested in fermentation. Back in 2010, Bill started brewing with a Mr. Beer Kit and rapidly upgraded to doing all grain brewing. Knowing his wife was not a fan of hops but loved sweet ciders, he started exploring meads & ciders. In 2020, he started expanding his meads & ciders, not only because the shelf life was longer but also because no one was around to drink his beer (Damn COVID). With an abundance of mead & ciders cluttering up his basement, he's branched out from the local homebrew competitions and started submitting to nationwide ones, having won more than 500+ awards since 2021. Bill is an active member of the North Georgia Malt Monkeys, Marietta Association of Schoolhouse Homebrewers (MASH) and runs the Mead & Cider Makers & Tasters group in the Atlanta Area.  He is also the competition organizer of the North Georgia Homebrew Competition.   This player will show the most recent show.  [break] To listen live, you can find us on Youtube (Youtube starting 1-15-25), Twitch, X (Twitter), and Facebook on the Gotmead Page.

Andrew Mehrtens is a legend of NZ Rugby and the second highest All Blacks point scorer of all time. He's also widely regarded as one of the most intelligent All Blacks and Sir Wayne Smith described him to us as a ‘genius' on and off the field, who understood the game better than he did. Universally known as Mehrts, in this episode we talk about what he's been doing with his life abroad for the last 20 years, his new-born twins and his fluent French, his best “Suzie” and Jonah Lomu stories from 1995, reflections on the recent loss of his father, the Crusaders and pulling the fingers in South Africa, punditry, family, and all the best yarns in between. Mehrts is a childhood hero of ours and the perfect guest; this was an epic chat, he's got the stories, but he's also got the depth and humour and we had a ton of laughs through this one. We're also super stoked to have Mehrts on the books of B2B Speakers, so if you like what you hear in this episode, and would love him to share his story at your function or event, flick us a message by going to B2Bspeakers.co.nz.

Tonight we're talking with Bryce and Savannah, husband and wife owners of Fox and Raven Meadery in Carollton, Texas. Fox & Raven Mead is Savannah and Bryce, a husband and wife team, creating Meads inspired by the stories that enchant them. They met at a movie theater eighteen years ago where they worked (mainly for the perk of free movies). They are self proclaimed Bibliophies, cinephiles and just all around big nerds. Bryce initially began homebrewing beer as a hobby but switched to Mead making due to a lack of availability of mead in his area. He's been making Mead for about 9 years now. Savannah is a graphic design school dropout and artist. She mostly handles marketing and design but also has a hand in helping craft flavor profiles as well. Bryce and Savannah are committed to never releasing a mead that they would not be happy to drink themselves. With a focus on balanced flavors, their mead tends to stay on the dry to semi-sweet side. Designwise, each mead label is designed to look like a comic book, book cover, or movie poster to tie back to their love of storytelling, Currently, the meadery is a production only with no taproom but you can find Fox & Raven out at several local markets as well as special events from time to time. Their Mead has also found their way into a few local breweries and bottle shops with more to come soon. Come hang out with us as we talk mead with Bryce and Savannah!

2-13-24 Tonight we're headed to Texas to talk with Traci Kuhfuss, home meadmaker and mead consultant. Traci Kuhfuss comes to us from Texas by way of Arizona. She ís been active as a homebrewer and mead maker for 20 years now, participating in brew clubs and competitions in all the places she has lived and traveled.. Traci is a professional graphic designer who loves making mead. Traci got into brewing once upon a time, she was newly divorced and her friends were all getting married and having kids. She was bored with sitting at home with nothing to do. Her friends got her a home brewing kit that year for Christmas. She made her first beer that New Years Eve. She eventually joined a homebrew club and was introduced to mead. She started making mead then and winning more medals with mead than beer. She has been consistently winning awards since 2005 to include many BOS wins such as Great Arizona Home Brew Competitions, Orpheus Cup, Queen of Beer, and Mead Stampede. After moving to Texas, she briefly dipped a toe in the commercial realm but went back to the homebrew scene. She has even helped with Texas Rivers Distilling in advising how to make good mead to make award winning Honey Creek Honey Spirits. Which took a silver medal in February 2023 at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. She has been involved in many competitions including The Great Arizona Homebrew Competition and The Great Arizona Mead Competition when she lived in Phoenix, Arizona. Upon moving to Texas she became involved in the local Houston homebrew scene with her clubs the Cane Island Alers and Sugarland Imperialists, helping to grow the mead community & assisting in Operation Fermentation. Traci also ran the Texas Mead Cup from 2019 to 2023 and has new plans to grow the mead judging pool and assist other Texas clubs in growing mead entries in their competitions.

Summary – Part 1 & Part 2 In this episode, we would like to introduce Jesse Carroll, the EMS accounts manager for Hamilton Medical. We discuss ASV (Adaptive Support Ventilation) on the Hamilton T1 ventilator and address misconceptions and myths about the mode. We want to highlight the benefits of ASV in reducing cognitive load for clinicians and promoting lung protective strategies. The limitations and contraindications of ASV are also discussed. This conversation explores the training methods and approaches for ventilator management. The discussion emphasizes the importance of waveform management and understanding pressure, flow, and volume. The dynamic lung graphic is introduced as a valuable tool for identifying disease processes. The conversation highlights the significance of practical training and the use of the dynamic lung in both ASV and conventional ventilation modes. The importance of time on target and the challenges of implementing complex formulas like the Otis and Meads equations are discussed. The conversation concludes with a focus on reducing cognitive load and engaging learners with practical applications.These episodes (Part 1 & 2) conclude with a focus on educating and building trust in ASV.Contact us at: criticalcaretriad@outlook.comKey Takeaways for Part 1 & Part 2ASV on the Hamilton T1 ventilator leverages the power of the proximal flow sensor to measure and manipulate a patient's ventilation status.ASV is an advanced monitoring device that reduces cognitive load for clinicians and allows for optimal patient care.ASV provides lung protective strategies by monitoring static lung compliance, airway resistance, and expiratory time constant.ASV is not a set it and forget it mode, but rather a tool to optimize patient care and engage clinicians in the ventilation process.Education and trust-building are essential in promoting the use of ASV and transitioning from ASV to conventional ventilation. Understanding waveforms is crucial for effective ventilator training.The dynamic lung graphic is a valuable tool for identifying disease processes.Practical training and hands-on experience are essential for mastering ventilator management.Reducing cognitive load and engaging learners with practical applications can enhance understanding and retention.

1-30-24 We're off to Arkansas tonight (where it's warmer) to visit with Tony Fry, owner and meadmaker at Arkansas Meadery in Alexander, Arkansas. Since 2001, Tony Fry has been deeply passionate about the art of fermenting, starting with beer and wine and eventually delving into the world of mead. As a founding member of CAF ("Central Arkansas Fermenters") in 2003, a prominent homebrew club based in Little Rock, Arkansas, he played a pivotal role in fostering a vibrant community of enthusiasts, making it one of the largest homebrew clubs in the United States. In 2014, Tony ventured into beekeeping, which further sparked his interest in mead-making. This journey led him to acquire a small farm in Saline County, Arkansas, in 2015. Serendipitously, that same year, the dry county lifted restrictions on alcohol sales, providing the perfect opportunity for Tony to explore his passion for mead-making and the possibility of opening a Meadery. Tony views this sequence of events as a divine sign, inspiring him to establish Arkansas's first Meadery, opening the meadery in September of 2021. Today, he is thrilled to share his creations with the world, inviting everyone to join the journey. This player will show the most recent show, and when we're live, will play the live feed.

1-16-24 Welcome to 2024! GotMead Live is back with Carlos Herrera, owner of the soon-to-be Texas Longhouse Meadery in Wylie, TX, just north of Dallas. Carlos has done a lot in his life so far. He spent 8 years in the army as an airborne infantryman. He was medically discharged in 2011 due to combat injuries and became a Paramedic in 2013. In 2015 decided he wasn't ready for civilian life and went back overseas as a high threat diplomatic security contractor team medic. He then spent 2 years at the US Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan and a year in Northern Iraq with the US Consulate before injuring his back again. He's had 3 spinal surgeries since then. Thank you for your service, Carlos! Carlos has been solo brewing mead since 2016. He was helping an older gentleman before that who used to make it for his Norse Heathen kindred group's ceremonial purposes. They used to make it what he would call the 'old ways' (open ferment in a bucket or old wood barrel, with no nutrients, and would add the kitchen sink if they could). Carlos thought there was a better way to do it so he started off on his own and learned a lot long the way thanks to people like Carvin Wilson, Tom Repas, Ken Schramm, and others. He decided to go commercial after winning multiple awards and being pushed by his homebrew club and friends to take the leap. Carlos loves bochets, pyments, and barrel projects. Carlos is in the process of building his meadery and is going to be talking with us about his journey in licensing and building a meadery, and also about his meads. Join us to see how he's doing!

James and Steve taste two delicious examples of Steve's meads in the last show from the pond.

Formed in 1998 in the Hertfordshire region of England, The Meads of Asphodel are a special, experimental heavy metal band with many distinctive and beguiling qualities. So why did it take one of the Radical Research hosts 24 years to acquire a taste for the Meads? We don't have the answer, but in this episode, Jeff runs down all his favorite aspects of Meads while Hunter listens, corroborates and discusses this better-late-than-never obsession.   Note I: This is from the main page of the Meads of Asphodel website, https://www.themeadsofasphodel.co.uk/: “Experimental extreme metal band The Meads of Asphodel believe in all peoples' right to live in peace, free from the shackles of inflicted dogma and servitude.” Damn straight!

This podcast is conceived and conducted by Jeff Wagner and Hunter Ginn. Though we consume music in a variety of ways, we give particular privilege to the immersive, full-album listening experience. Likewise, we believe that tangible music formats help provide the richest, most rewarding immersions and that music, artwork, and song titles cooperate to produce a singular effect on the listener. Great music is worth more than we ever pay for it.
