Episode 295 -This week on the show, we’re staying safer at home and trying a new way of recording the podcast.

This week on the show, we’re doing things a bit differently. Most of us, and by "us," I mean literally everyone around the world, have adapted to the (hopefully) temporary new way of life of staying at home and distancing from others. COVID-19 is a very real thing that is a risk to everyone, and that means even podcasters like us need to change how we normally do things. This week, we’re recording our first-ever remote show where all of us are at home, recording over the internet.

We’re no strangers to streaming online, and recording over the internet is actually a more common way of recording a podcast. We typically record in a studio at John’s house so we can interact with each other in person and share the beers that we are talking about on a given episode with one another. Obviously, this is not an ideal situation with everything that’s happening right now, so here we are. There isn’t really going to be anything too different about the show, other than the common beers that we won’t be sharing with each other. On one hand, it’s a bit of a pain to record the show this way, but on the other, it provides a new opportunity to create content in a much more convenient way. Point is, bear with us as we try to adapt to this new way (at least to us) of podcasting.

We hope you’re safe. We know this sucks right now. We miss our friends and family, socializing, and even going for a run without having to wear a mask, but this is temporary and staying at home as much as possible, while also keeping our distance from others in public, is something we must all do. That being said, we live in a great time in history where we have a robust internet that allows us all to stay in contact, see each other’s faces, and even get together once a week for a virtual happy hour.

We’ll be recording episodes once a week from here out, which is actually pretty cool for those who normally can’t make it to our typical monthly recording sessions. We’ll be having guests on the show, trying new beers, and continuing to keep doing our thing the best we can. Thanks for sticking with us. We’ll get through this.

Now, on with the show!

BREW THE SHIT OUT OF IT.
WASH YOUR HANDS.
WEAR A MASK.
DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE.
