While there's been plenty of coverage of the gubernatorial, congressional, and U.S. Senate primaries, smaller but equally important battles are also being fought in Denver – like the race to represent Colorado Senate District 34 (a seat currently held by Julie Gonzales). Two Democrats are vying to represent the downtown and northwest Denver district: Andrés Carrera and Chela Garcia Irlando. They engaged in a heated forum last week on stage at Su Teatro, with our producer Paul Karolyi moderating. With the primary election just eight days away, we're sharing this live recording of Carrera and Garcia Irlando, who fiercely debated everything from data centers and the city's handling of the migrant crisis to RTD's budget issues and the role of dark money in this very race. A quick clarification on the “dark money” exchange: After the forum, Conservation Colorado Victory Fund reached out to let us know that they had reported spending on the mailers Paul mentioned, but that the secretary of state's office had not yet updated its database at the time of the forum. For more, the Colorado Sun reported last Thursday a breakdown of all the spending from groups that don't disclose their donors in support of candidates in state legislature races, including SD34.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter at denver.citycast.fm.

In the latest episode of the The Metal Pack Pod, we sit down with Meghan Barrera (Leader of the Global Strategic Marketing Group for PPG Packaging Coatings) in a live episode at the recent Metpack 2026 trade show.The metal packaging industry is currently navigating significant market shifts and macroeconomic challenges. On the consumer front, there is notable global growth in the traditionally flat pet food packaging sector, alongside a rising demand for "harder-to-hold" beverages—such as functional drinks, ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails, and mixed alcoholic beverages. At the same time, brand owners and can makers are facing a complex regulatory "tsunami" of rapidly changing global and state-level legislations.This episode explores these shifting dynamics and highlights how PPG's latest coating innovations are engineered to drive operational efficiency and sustainability in response to these market conditions.

Send us a text and let us know what you think of our podcast!Now that the dust has settled on the latest round of 'shock' announcements, how are we all feeling about the future of Doctor Who? We were always going to have to wait a few years (after the previously-promised Christmas special!) for new Doctor Who on TV, and maybe with a new team behind it - whoever that might be - we'll soon get to see a fresh creative take on our favourite show. Or is the bitter pill of RTD's message to fans still sticking in the craw like an unwanted fishbone, making all of this very difficult to swallow? While the future may seem uncertain, the legacy of the show remains strong, and Doctor Who is more than just a TV show, right?

Send us Fan MailNot every RTD brand gets acquired by one of the world's biggest spirits companies. Fewer still land Alix Earle as an investor along the way. Joey Angelo, co-founder of SipsMARGS and Su Casa Mezcal, did both, and the path there ran through 15 years inside the distribution tier, watching thousands of brands succeed and fail before building one himself.In this episode, Joey walks us through what it actually took to launch a premium canned margarita during a pandemic, earn distributor buy-in when the RTD category was still unproven, and build a brand compelling enough to attract Alix Earle organically and close a deal with Sazerac. We get into the white space he identified in the RTD market, why celebrity partnerships live or die on the product underneath them, the route-to-market discipline that kept SipsMARGS focused, and what he learned about timing and patience when a major acquirer comes calling.Park Street Imports is the back-office and importing solution for alcoholic beverage brands launching and scaling in the U.S. marketFeatured Guests:Joey Angelo, Founder & CEO, Su Casa Mezcal & sipMARGSMentioned in this episode:SipMARGSSu Casa MezcalWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

Hey packaging people! I don't think I've ever been more excited to just completely packaging-nerd out on an episode! Today, I am honored and blessed to be joined by Tatiana Chamorro, the CMO and founding team member of Toucan Cocktails. Not only is she a seasoned marketing pro and entrepreneur, but she's also a fellow podcast host! In this episode, we dive deep into some of the most innovative packaging I have ever seen in my life. The ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktail industry has been exploding, but Toucan Cocktails realized a huge problem: pre-mixed drinks sitting on a shelf lose their magic and sometimes start to taste a little funky without heavy preservatives.Their solution? Keep the spirit and the mixer completely separate until the exact moment you are ready to drink it! Tatiana takes us on the wild design and engineering journey of bringing this product to life. We talk about:* The transition from early leaky 3D-printed prototypes to their incredibly sleek final product. * Why they chose a 360-degree pop-top tin can (it opens like a tennis ball can!) for the spirit. * The genius of using a universal black top can across all flavors to simplify supply chain and demand planning. * Moving away from annoying shrink sleeves (specifically those pesky zipper perfs!) and opting for direct digital UV inkjet printing for a premium, tactile feel. * A live, on-screen demo of how to properly snap, shake, and pour a Toucan Margarita and Espresso Martini—complete with real cocktail foam! If you love packaging design, structural engineering, and a genuinely good cocktail, you cannot miss this episode!Connect with Adam!

Is the golden age of protein over, or is the market hiding something much worse? While mainstream pundits point to falling average retail prices as a sign of consumer fatigue or market saturation, the reality is far more dangerous. CPG brands are trapped in a brutal macroeconomic vice: unprecedented, structural commodity inflation for whey protein vs. an already strained consumer. In this content, I break down why the "health halo" of the protein market is approaching a catastrophic breaking point, how brands are quietly altering your favorite protein snacks, and why the ultimate threat to your protein powder might actually come from the butcher counter. In my latest content piece, I'll cover topics like:Pricing (ARP) Illusion: Why category prices look lower on paper while individual products (UPCs) are actually getting more expensiveProtein Product "Format Shift": How low-ticket, immediate-use items like RTD shakes are masking deep market friction▪️ Formulation Trap: Why substituting protein inputs isn't as simple as swapping sugar or fat, and how it leads to "chalky, brick-like" productsConsumer Surplus Theory: The exact economic mechanism that could trigger a massive market contractionSubstitution Threat: How government actions and downward price corrections in real whole foods (beef, poultry) could pull shoppers out of the center aisleIndustry Warning Signs: Sneaky ingredient changes happening right now across protein powders, protein bars, and lifestyle snacksUltimately, "protein mania" won't end because you stop wanting better nutrition...it will halt because the industry broke its promise of quality!

At 138 years old, F.X. Matt Brewing isn't slowing down.  President Fred Matt joined the Brewbound Podcast to discuss the Utica, New York-based craft brewery's plans for 2026 and beyond, which include Saranac Weekend Warrior Mid-Strength, a 3% ABV hazy IPA and Right Coast Spirits Italian Ice, a vodka-based RTD produced in partnership with Barrel One Collective.  Plus, Jess and Zoe discuss news highlights, including changes coming for the Great American Beer Festival and 2025 production data for taprooms and brewpubs.

Christmas is canceled. Doctor Who isn't. But as RTD exits under a cloud of Winternox, we're all a bit Bafflers about what comes next. Pull To Open pours one out, and thrashes out where the show should go next. Hard or soft reboot? Continue with Billie Piper or start afresh? And who can handle the hardest showrunning job in all of time and space? Join us for the finest bespoke headcanon around, from multi-companion Doctors to alt-universe Daleks!Pull To Open: Christmas Is CanceledSeason 7Episode 13Hosts: Pete Pachal and Chris Taylor

Following the news of the 2026 Christmas Special being cancelled and Doctor Who parting ways with RTD, David & Matt sit down to discuss their immediate thoughts. Doctor Who theme by Ron Grainer, arranged by Alexander Erben. Talk to us! Email: timenorspacepod@gmail.com Twitter:@timenorspacepod

[Special Release: This episode is being released simultaneously on the main feed and Patreon for immediacy.] BREAKING NEWS: The Future of Doctor Who Takes a Dramatic Turn Just hours before recording, the BBC made a major announcement that affects Doctor Who's direction for years to come. RTD and Bad Wolf are parting ways with the BBC. The Christmas special is canceled. New production arrangements are being sought. John and Jim process what this means for fandom, for the show's creative identity, and for the possibility of a true fresh start. One host sees this as inevitable reckoning; the other worries about what gets lost in transition. Both discuss how long the darkness might last—and whether that's actually a bad thing. Season 25: Taking Stock of Four Stories After racing through Remembrance of the Daleks, Silver Nemesis, Happiness Patrol, and The Greatest Show in the Galaxy, Jim and John pause to rank what they've just watched. Best episode? That's clear. Worst episode? They disagree—and don't let ratings alone settle it. Best villain, best companion, best guest star, best monster, funniest moment, best overall moment—each category sparks different reactions. What makes a story work, even when individual elements fail? When does spectacle overwhelm character? Why does one host adore a story the other found painful? Nemesis of the Daleks: The First Dalek Comic in Ages A four-part comic strip featuring the Doctor's oldest enemies—and a character that may or may not have survived. The art improves significantly from recent strips. The scope feels genuinely cinematic with the Dalek Death Wheel. But here's the question: did the ending rush a story that deserved more room to breathe? John appreciates the scale; Jim wishes the narrative had time to match it. Both wonder if this Dalek adversary will return. Music & Memory TARDIS "The Psychic Circus" by Christopher Guard (who played Bellboy) is a curiosity—an actual song written specifically about an episode, not the show itself. Peter Davison's final story, "The Caves of Androzani," offers stunning supporting characters and a presidency subplot that overshadows the main narrative. One host loves it unreservedly; the other would only revisit select scenes. What Doctor Who Needs Now With RTD out and the show facing a complete reset, Jim and John discuss what a new showrunner should do. Forget continuity complications? Embrace them? How long should the silence last? Should the next Doctor arrive on screen with no explanation, like Eccleston did? Can a complete reboot work? Should there even be a TARDIS anymore? These aren't answered so much as explored—and the conversation suggests the wilderness years ahead might be exactly what the franchise needs.

Most challenger founders assume international expansion should happen in neat, logical steps. New Zealand → Australia → UK → US. But Lisa's view was different, and that's why it's so interesting: In fact, conventional FMCG wisdom tells us to prove your business in nearby markets first. But founder Lisa King of Free AF Drinks ignored that advice!  After building a 40% share brand in New Zealand, Lisa decided to skip Australia entirely and went straight after the most competitive drinks market in the world...the USA!Why? --> If the ambition was always to build a globally valuable business, she asked herself why spend years proving the model somewhere that wasn't ultimately where the biggest opportunity sat?In this brilliant conversation with Kiwi female founder Lisa, you'll hear how today AF Drinks is stocked in more than 4,500 stores across the US, including Target, Walmart, Whole Foods and Kroger, and just HOW they're doing it. We discuss why she made they made the decision they did, how Pernod Ricard Ventures invested before the US launch, what it really takes to build a beverage brand in America, why alcohol-free RTD cocktails are outperforming expectations, and the lessons founders should understand before attempting to scale internationally.Lisa takes us through a masterclass in the realities of the beverage market in the United States; Why alcohol-free RTD cocktails are growing faster than many expected and finally, how she has approached fundraising, equity and scaling internationally!Key Topics Discussed Alcohol-free drinks category growth  Building challenger brands internationally  International expansion & export to USA   Listings with Target, Walmart, Whole Foods and Kroger  US grocery retail Walmart and Target listings  Fundraising and investor strategy  Pernod Ricard Ventures investment  Beverage category economics  Product innovation, IP & technology  Ready-to-drink cocktails  Scaling consumer brands globally  Founder leadership  Building brands from New Zealand USEFUL LINKSAF Drinks WebsiteAF Drinks InstagramLike this episode?PLEASE share the love by sharing this episode with another founder building a challenger brand, a colleague or a mate who loves brilliant non-alcoholic drinks, or anyone trying to work out how to build a consumer packaged goods business.Don't forget to FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE to Brand Growth Heroes on your favourite podcast app, and even LEAVE A REVIEW - both of these actions make a MASSIVE difference to our mission to help more founders just like you.Follow usInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/brandgrowthheroes)LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-growth-heroes/?viewAsMember=true)Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/@brandgrowthheroes)Find out more about the programmes and courses Fiona runs here (https://www.brandgrowthheroes.com/mini-mba-2026)Join the NextGen CPG WhatsApp group for founders leaning in to the value that a leadership approach to engaging with AI can unlock for businesses like yours.*** Thanks to Brand Growth Heroes' podcast sponsor - Joelson, the commercial law firm ***If you're a founder, you already know how much energy goes into building the perfect product, creating standout branding and connecting with consumers.But scaling a CPG business also brings legal complexities that can make or break your growth journey - from contracts and regulatory compliance to protecting your intellectual property.That's why I'm proud to partner with Joelson, the leading commercial law firm specialising in helping founders of scaling consumer brands.Joelson works with brands like Little Moons, Trip, Eat Natural, Bear Graze and Pulsin, and advised the innocent founders on their landmark sale to Coca-Cola - and still work with them at JamJar Investments today!Joelson is offering a FREE LEGAL CONSULTATION to all BGH listeners (mailto:hello@joelsonlaw.com) - I honestly recommend you take them up on it, they're brilliant.CREDITSThanks to our Sound Engineer Gyp Buggane at Ballagroove.com

Founded by entrepreneur Meredith Mills-Merritt, The Original Southside is a premium ready-to-drink cocktail brand bringing a fresh, elevated approach to the rapidly growing RTD category. Inspired by a cherished family recipe created by her mother, Meredith transformed the classic Southside cocktail—a refreshing blend of gin, lemon, and mint—into a bar-quality canned beverage made with organic ingredients and a commitment to transparency. Drawing on her background in prestige beauty and product innovation, she applies a product-first philosophy to every aspect of the brand, from ingredient sourcing and formulation to packaging and design. The result is a cocktail that prioritizes quality, simplicity, and a clean ingredient profile without compromising on taste. Beyond building the brand, Meredith is also a co-founder of the Clean Alcohol Collective, an initiative advocating for greater ingredient transparency across the alcohol industry. Through The Original Southside, she is helping redefine what consumers can expect from ready-to-drink cocktails while challenging industry norms around formulation and disclosure. In this episode, Meredit also discusses: How a family canned cocktail recipe became a viral brand Why alcohol should have ingredient labels so consumers know what they're drinking How the beauty industry's "clean" movement influenced beverage innovation Ditching dull drinks in favor of bold, modern branding The rise of health-conscious consumers and how they're reshaping the alcohol market The challenges of building a small alcohol brand in a distribution-controlled industry Debunking common myths about gin, tequila, and vodka being "healthier" choices Why indulgence and moderation can coexist in today's wellness culture We hope you enjoy this episode and gain valuable insights into Meredit's journey and the growth of The Original Southside.

The rumours and nonsense continue to bubble up from the internet swamps this week with claims of the Christmas Special shot in a minimal style, a fake news release to irritate us all, and actual footage of RTD saying there will be a BBC press release in a week or two.

In this episode the guys break down the three ways to program endurance and strength together — same workout, different days, or alternating weeks — covering the pros, cons and who each approach is actually best for. They also get into the viral heavy metals in protein powder scare (and why it's mostly prop 65 hysteria), the ugly new electric Ferrari that has all of Italy in mourning, GLP-1 concerns about motivation and libido (and why under-eating is the real culprit), Adam's son and Catrina's brutal norovirus battle, Justin taking his sons to the gym for the first time, and Sal's dad's legendary judo match. Then they answer questions submitted through Instagram — covering long cuts, goblet squats, the one peptide they'd each keep, and Adam and Justin's favorite sports moments.

Send us Fan MailWe put the Old Fashioned to the test by tasting bottled RTDs, pre-batched bar styles, and homemade builds to see where convenience truly holds up. We dig into history, ingredients, proof, and technique, then land on what we'd actually buy again and what we'd rather fix with our own bitters and syrup. • why the Old Fashioned stays the gold standard cocktail • whether higher proof RTDs taste closer to a true Old Fashioned • bitters that change everything, especially black walnut bitters • sweeteners that work best, from agave to barrel-aged maple syrup • the Yellowstone ready-to-serve pour and how citrus zest shifts balance • Penelope bottled Old Fashioneds and why the black walnut stands out • Prohibition's influence on muddled fruit and soda habits • the Wisconsin Old Fashioned style and the brandy versus bourbon debate • why barrel-aged Old Fashioneds feel more integrated and smooth • glassware and ice choices that improve texture and dilution • how sugar makes Old Fashioneds hit harder than neat whiskey • the bacon fat washed Old Fashioned build and why it works • our final ranking, including why Handy and Schiller holds up best www.scotchybourbonboys.com for all things scotchy bourbon boys.

We line up homemade builds, bottled ready-to-drink Old Fashioneds, and bar-style barrel-aged batches to answer a real question for bourbon fans: is the classic Old Fashioned still king, or have RTD cocktails finally gotten good enough to keep stocked year-round?  CT joins us as our resident mixologist and we get hands-on with what actually changes the drink: proof, dilution, bitters, sweeteners, citrus, cherries, ice, and even the weight of the rocks glass. We taste through popular options and talk straight about what works and what tastes like “every bad bar Old Fashioned,” including how to rescue an orange-heavy pour with lemon zest, or rebalance sweetness by cutting syrup and leaning into rye whiskey or higher proof bourbon.  We also dig into Old Fashioned history, from the 1806 cocktail definition to Prohibition-era muddled fruit, plus the Wisconsin Old Fashioned tradition with soda. Then we go full experiment mode with barrel-aged flavor, smoking tools, and a showstopper: a bacon fat washed Old Fashioned built with black walnut bitters, a touch of chocolate bitters, and barrel-aged maple syrup.  If you love bourbon cocktails, bitters, and practical home bartending tips, you'll want this one.

The beverage alcohol business is in a curve.That's the phrase Matt Rice, founder and principal of Thirsty Insights, uses to describe the first half of 2026: a volatile, high-stakes moment where consolidation, consumer shifts, distributor disruption, and M&A are changing the race order in real time.In this episode, Matt joins Erica and Scott for a mid-year M&A update on the deals, category shifts, and distributor moves reshaping the drinks industry.We dig into the surge of activity across wine, spirits, RTDs, beer, and non-alc — from Gallo's move to acquire Four Roses, to Molson Coors buying Atomic Brands, to The Wine Group stepping into non-alc cocktails with Saint Agrestis' Phony Negroni line. Matt explains why buyers are still active, but far more disciplined, looking for growth vehicles, scarce assets, synergies, and route-to-market leverage.The conversation also tackles one of the biggest distributor shakeups in years: RNDC's market exits, Reyes' expansion beyond beer into wine and spirits, Martignetti's move into control states, Columbia Distributing's Oregon and Washington opportunity, and Southern Glazer's continued push into beer-aligned assets.For emerging brands, the implications are significant. Matt explains why distributor attention can materially affect performance, why smaller suppliers have to be easier to sell, and why brands now need to show up with tighter market plans, better data, clear target accounts, and a willingness to do the hand-selling themselves.We also explore why independent RTD brands like BeatBox, Surfside, and Carbliss have outpaced many incumbent launches, why “born-in-category” brands often win, and why Matt would put a hypothetical $1 million angel investment into Wine 2.0 — not because wine is winning today, but because he believes the next cycle may reward those building for where the puck is going.For drinks entrepreneurs, this episode is a masterclass in how to think about M&A, distribution, category timing, investor signals, and the strategic discipline required to survive the curve — and come out stronger on the straightaway.For the latest updates, follow us:Business of Drinks website (sign up for our newsletter!)Business of Drinks YouTubeBusiness 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.

ICH Q13 explains how pharmaceutical companies can apply batch definition, traceability, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management to continuous manufacturing of drug substances and drug products.Learn more:https://www.letscombinate.comSchedule a call:https://calendly.com/letscombinate/let-s-combinate-intro-sessionIn this episode, Subhi Saadeh explains ICH Q13 and the key concepts behind continuous manufacturing in pharmaceutical manufacturing.The core question behind ICH Q13 is simple:How do you apply traditional quality concepts like batch definition, traceability, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management when the manufacturing process does not stop?This episode covers the major Q13 concepts, including the difference between batch and continuous manufacturing, how batches can be defined in continuous manufacturing, the three continuous manufacturing models described in the guideline, residence time distribution (RTD), disturbance handling, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management.Subhi also discusses why batches still matter in continuous manufacturing. Even when a process operates as a continuous flow, batches remain essential for traceability, investigations, trending, stability programs, release decisions, and recalls.Key topics covered:• What ICH Q13 is and why it matters• Batch manufacturing versus continuous manufacturing• Why manufacturers still need batch definitions• Time-based, mass-based, and campaign-based batch definitions• The three continuous manufacturing models described in ICH Q13• Residence Time Distribution (RTD)• Why RTD matters for traceability and investigations• Disturbance impact assessment and material disposition• Control strategy considerations for startup, steady-state operation, and disturbances• The role of Process Analytical Technology (PAT)• Disturbance management using magnitude, duration, and frequency• Validation considerations for continuous manufacturing• Release strategies supported by process understanding and monitoring• Lifecycle management and risk-based change controlTimestamps:00:00 ICH Q13 Overview00:48 Why Batches Matter01:21 Batch vs. Continuous Manufacturing01:59 Defining Batches02:48 Three Continuous Manufacturing Models03:54 Residence Time Distribution (RTD)06:05 Control Strategy Basics07:19 Disturbance Handling08:19 Validation, Release, and Lifecycle Management10:16 Wrap-Up and Next StepsSource referenced in this episode:ICH Q13: Continuous Manufacturing of Drug Substances and Drug ProductsFinal version adopted 16 November 2022https://database.ich.org/sites/default/files/ICH_Q13_Step4_Guideline_2022_1116.pdfReferences to ICH Q13 guideline and are included for educational commentary and discussion.Questions or feedback?

Gov. Jared Polis has been the talk of the town since he commuted the sentence of noted 2020 election denier and former Mesa County clerk Tina Peters, and he's handling all the attention the way only he could – trolling the press, sticking to his guns, and finding some time for a very jovial bill-signing on an RTD bus. City Cast Denver's reigning Hater of the Year Adrian Felix and HD5 candidate Sterling Simms join producer Paul Karolyi to get into the weeds of that big RTD reform bill and dissect all Polis' latest antics. Plus, one of the most highly anticipated performers at Denver PrideFest is “breaking her silence” about a legal dispute with one of Denver's favorite clothing brands; Sterling addresses his opponent (aka, green chile correspondent Justine Sandoval); and all our wins and fails of the week.  That's not all! If you're a City Cast Denver Neighbor, you'll also get a bonus segment where we respond to some very fun listener comments and questions about DIA's new plan to divert waylaid travelers into its infamous underground tunnels.  Paul mentioned Pattie Gonia's online merch store, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin's comments about sanctuary cities, and Elijah Wood's vaguely Lord of the Rings-themed DJ sets this weekend. Sterling talked about his campaign for HD5 and Colorado's latest PIRG report on clean energy. Adrian discussed a clip of his costume on our Instagram last Halloween, Denver Water's new anonymous reporting form, and the photos of State Sen. Matt Ball and Polis at the RTD bill signing.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter at denver.citycast.fm.

Jason Schwartze, founder of Moonglade Craft Soda, shares the decades-long journey from a kitchen obsession with perfecting ginger beer to a freshly launched line of certified organic farmers market-inspired craft sodas. He talks about his background as a park ranger and agricultural inspector, how that shaped his passion for regenerative farming and ocean health, and why joining 1% for the Planet felt less like a business decision and more like an extension of who he already was. Jason digs into the innovations that made Moonglade possible, from solving the carbonation problem in organic beverages to discovering a mushroom fiber extract preservative that keeps his sodas shelf stable. He wraps up by inviting the community to seek out products that are real. And to trust that when something comes from a family and a farmers market, it probably is.Takeaways:Moonglade Craft Soda is a family business out of Oceanside, California that got its start at farmers markets about ten years ago.The brand just launched four certified organic RTD cans, farmers market inspired craft sodas, with roughly half the sugar of conventional soda.Jason's background in agriculture, and as a park ranger, directly informs his commitment to supporting farmers and regenerative practices.Moonglade is a 1% for the Planet member, with a focus on two causes: supporting organic and regenerative agriculture, and keeping plastics out of the ocean.A key innovation for the brand was solving the carbonation loss problem that usually plagues natural sodas.Moonglade uses a natural mushroom fiber extract as a preservative that keeps the product shelf stable without affecting flavor.Jason credits Naturally Network with helping him solidify his growth strategy giving him the clarity and confidence he needed to move forward.Conscious business is a personal ethos for Jason, not just a marketing strategy.Sound Bites:"I basically became obsessed with trying to find a better ginger beer.""It can't be forced, it can't be contrived. What I'm doing is not contrived. It is who I am.""I probably would have given up if the iterative process wasn't a thing. Every time I do something, I have to keep going because it's so much better.""Nobody wants a flat root beer.""If it came from a family and a farmers market, it's probably pretty real.""She just gave me some real clear goals and strategy that I felt like I'd never had before and just gave me a ton of confidence. Without Naturally Network, we wouldn't have had that."Links:Jason Schwartze on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-schwartze-9057b12a3/Moonglade Craft Soda: https://moongladesoda.com/Moonglade Craft Soda on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/moonglade-craft-soda/people/Moonglade Craft Soda on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MoongladeCraftSodaMoonglade Craft Soda on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moongladesoda/...Naturally Network: www.naturallynetwork.org…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radio…The Food Institute - https://foodinstitute.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us Fan MailWe hang out with Dave Bob from Lexington Brewing & Distilling and get a guided walk through Town Branch, from the visitor center that feels like an Irish street to the barrels that shape everything. Along the way we taste through beers, bourbons and American single malts and end up stunned by a single barrel with raspberry, vanilla and butter notes we can't stop talking about. • what it feels like to arrive at Town Branch and start a tour • Pierce Lyons' Irish roots, yeast legacy and why it still matters • how Bourbonola went from Prohibition story to 12% RTD • why the brewery and distillery combo changes the tasting experience • beer highlights including Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale and vanilla barrel cream ale • the barrel thieving tour and why tasting from the barrel hits different • the core whiskey lineup from 90 proof bourbon to True Cask batches • Overproof 104 as a bartender-focused blend for cocktails at home • a live barrel pick on air and the single malt that steals the show • what we want to see next in Ohio distribution and upcoming releases make sure that you leave good feedback, become subscriber, member, top shelf on on uh YouTube Drink responsibly don't drink and drive You can learn a lot about bourbon from a label, but you learn a lot more when someone who lives in the rickhouse walks you through it. We sit down with Dave Bob from Lexington Brewing & Distilling and let him take us inside Town Branch, a true brewery-distillery that feels equal parts Kentucky Bourbon Trail stop and Irish whiskey hideaway. From the moment you step into the visitor center, the place is built for discovery and Dave explains why that “experience design” is just as intentional as what goes into the barrel.We dig into the Pierce Lyons story, the Irish roots behind Town Branch, and the yeast-driven mindset that shaped everything from their American single malt whiskey to their Kentucky straight bourbon. Then we go deep on Bourbonola: how a Prohibition-era idea became a modern 12% ready-to-drink bourbon cola, why the team built a custom cherry cola flavor to match their whiskey, and what makes it stand apart from the usual canned collabs.The night turns into a live barrel pick, tasting multiple single malt and bourbon samples on air. We talk True Cask (their cask strength bourbon batches), Overproof 104 for cocktails, the barrel thieving tour, and the rare moment when a single barrel stops the conversation cold with notes like raspberry, vanilla icing and butter. If you care about barrel picks, Lexington bourbon tours, American single malt, or finding the best value cask strength bourbon, this one is for you.

Send us Fan MailWe need a nap.Must have been something in the air this week as all of us seemed to be struggling getting a good night's rest. I remember my youth, way back in the late 1900s, and 4 hours of sleep on a concrete slab and I was good as new. Maybe that kind of activity is why it's a whole damn project to get a good rest these days. Zzz.....Right in line with our chatter last week 10 Barrel reached out to us about some of their "functional beverages." That's the word we couldn't think of last week. They've got an NA RTD cocktail now that has guarana, ginseng, caffeine, mushrooms, and sea salt in it. We're not sure we need an energy RTD, but we're down to try it.In the Apple Beer Battle we didn't know existed Kestone Light comes out swinging with "the most American" apple beer you can find. Take that, Busch! This reminded us of Natural Light's Naturday's, something we enjoyed sitting on the beach in FL. Good times.Sad beer news this week that UK pubs are really struggling these days and closing at an alarming rate. With their pub culture that's some grave news. If everything wasn't so damn expensive these days maybe they could keep those pubs full.Positive news though, Creature Comforts Brewing is growing and will surpass 100,000 barrels brewed this year as they also expand their spirits offerings. More good news from Maine Beer Co. as they announce they're doing well and planning a large expansion.In other news Yoko Ono shrieks a lawsuit at a small brewer and Ball Corp. says their can supply is mostly spoken for this year, and possibly in 2027.Wild stuff.Thanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!  Your hosts are Tim Dennis and Brian Hewitt with producer Nate "Mo' Mic Nate" Ellingson and occasional appearances from Becky Smalls.Subscribe to Beer Guys Radio on your favorite app: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher  | RSSFollow Beer Guys Radio: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube If you enjoy the show we'd appreciate your support on Patreon.  Patrons get cool perks like early, commercial-free episodes, swag, access to our exclusive Discord server, and more!

More Competition. More Promotions. More Innovation. The Protein RTD market set-up is getting really interesting...just like I predicted two years earlier! BellRing Brands (NYSE: BRBR) is a portfolio that owns a collection of convenient nutrition brands like Premier Protein and Dymatize Nutrition, which was previously wholly-owned by Post Holdings. A fast-paced and busy lifestyle is pushing consumers to switch to quick and healthy meal options. This has resulted in above average categorical growth rates and increased household penetration of RTD protein shakes that promote active lifestyles. Additionally, powders are becoming more mainstream, and category proliferation has created an environment where more consumers are purchasing both every day and performance nutrition positioned protein products at grocery stores and mass retailers. Bellring Brands reported 2026 Q2 net sales of $598.7 million, which was up 1.8% YoY. Premier Protein (~85% of BellRing Brands total revenue) increased by 1.7% YoY, driven by strong volume growth but partially offset by an equally strong decrease in price/product mix. Dymatize Nutrition was down 1.9% YoY, driven by higher average net selling prices, with volumes impacted by elasticities due to inflation-driven price increases. Moreover, I provide deep dives into Premier Protein RTD protein shakes business activity, along with examining similar metrics surrounding the protein powders from Premier Protein and Dymatize Nutrition. But what did I say two years earlier about the RTD Protein market outlook? Higher protein input costs, more total distribution points, and more competitors...yep! But what I didn't layout clearly enough by my “things should be fun to say the least” comment was how “a more pressured consumer” would create extra challenges in this operating environment. As a result, 27% of the Protein RTD category volumes were sold on price promotion…that's up around 800 basis points YoY. But then, with BellRing Brands' CEO announcing her retirement (effective 2026 fiscal year-end), you might remember from last quarter that I half-jokingly “applied for the position.” And I won't go through my entire “three most-critical forward-looking strategic initiatives as the new CEO of BellRing Brands,” but I quickly wanted to provide a mixed bag update of new information including the launch of Premier Protein Ultimate and Premier Protein Soda.

The Founderz Lounge Episode #83 with Don Varady and Steve Bon.Everyone's an expert now. Everyone's a guru. Everyone has advice. And somehow, half of it sounds like it came from the same recycled LinkedIn post.In this episode of Business & Bullsh*t, Don and Steve dig into the fake guru era, unsolicited business advice, personal brand echo chambers, and why so many people are trying to position themselves as experts before they have actually earned it. What starts with AI assistants in fast food headsets, zero-click search, and companies rehiring humans after failed automation turns into a bigger conversation about business noise, credibility, customer experience, and the growing gap between real operators and people just talking about it.They also get into Taco Bell's birthday cake empanada, assistants managing calendars, business calls from questionable places, wasted money trying to look successful, and the kind of ridiculous “next big thing” pitches every entrepreneur eventually hears.If you are tired of fake experts, AI hype, unsolicited advice, and business content that all sounds the same, this episode is for you.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer and Intro[01:10] Founderz Roundup[01:23] Burger King's AI assistant[02:15] AI in employee headsets[02:50] Zero-click search[04:33] Google reviews and AI results[05:03] SEO as a pay-to-play game[06:03] How AI search may get monetized[07:52] AI layoffs and rehiring humans[09:45] Taco Bell and Milk Bar collab[11:21] Don's Krispy Kreme wedding cake[12:41] Founderz Hot Take[12:43] The fake guru era[13:44] Unsolicited business advice[14:13] Stop giving advice and start giving praise[14:50] Finding the good in operations[15:17] Don on LinkedIn and business feedback[15:56] Reach out to my assistant[17:29] Character is your business[17:59] Founderz Fast Five[18:11] Fake LinkedIn kid stories[19:24] Personal brand echo chambers[20:09] RTD oversaturation[20:37] Trading businesses with famous founders[22:28] Wasting money to look successful[24:14] Weirdest place for a business call[25:03] Ridiculous “next big thing” pitches[28:20] Online coaching appsKey Takeaways:  • Google SEO became a pay-to-play game where smaller businesses struggled to compete with brands spending millions. ~Don Varady• AI search may feel like a level playing field now, but it will likely get monetized just like SEO did. ~Steve Bon• Companies going all in on AI automation may end up rehiring people when the systems break. ~Steve Bon• “Everyone's an expert. Everyone's a guru.” ~Steve Bon• The business community needs less unsolicited advice and more positive recognition. ~Steve Bon• “The rare commodity is finding the good in operations and letting people know about it.” ~Steve Bon• If someone asks for your time, they should not make you schedule it through their assistant. ~Don Varady• The personal-brand echo chamber is making too much business content sound exactly the same. ~Steve BonConnect with Don and Steve…Don Varady:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/don.varady/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donvarady/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-varady-450896145 Steve Bon:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenbon Instagram: https://instagram.com/stevebon8 Tune in to every episode on your favorite platform: Website: https://www.thefounderzlounge.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFounderzLounge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Nurr4XjBE747qJ9Zjth0G Apple Music: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-founderz-lounge/id1461825349 The Founderz Lounge is Powered By:Clean Eatz:Website: https://cleaneatz.com/Bon's Eye Marketing:Website: https://bonseyeonline.com/
