Death...the Final Frontier (Part One)

CJ and Scott are at odds about the name and topic of the podcast, but eventual sort out their shit. As promised months ago, the boys finally tackle the thorny topic of death with their regular panache, humor, and trademark ineptitude. What makes a good death? Do people actually fear public speaking more than death? Why do people fear death? Of course, CJ and Scott don't find the answer in part one of this two part deep dive into death. CJ is drinking: Dances With Hops: Shambles Brewery, American IPA, ABV: 6.4%A combination of five hops gives this beer an intense hop flavour and aroma, with citrus, fruit and pine characters. The hop assault is balanced by a higher alcohol level and a firm, lingering bitterness. A seriously tasty beer for those in search of a lupulin fix!Scott is drinking: Making Excuses, Mountain Culture, Oat Cream IPA, ABV: 6.5%We decided to make this beer's hop regime as extreme as our mountain bike riding and throw in everything we had on hand (Strata, Mosaic, Galaxy, Idaho 7 and Sabro) because it’s a well known fact that the Mountain Culture team are awesome mountain bike riders. They’re really good at doing massive jumps, tabletops and rollovers which really impress all of the other riders. It’s just that sometimes they don’t really feel like doing all those awesome tricks. For example, if the wind is too strong or there’s no wind at all, or if people are watching or the path is too rocky or smooth or has too much dirt. And if it’s too sunny or a bit overcast, they just wouldn’t want to risk it. That’s why they prefer gentle rides followed by thick, fruity Oat Cream IPAs (preferably with a tropical fruit salad punch like this one) that act as a salve for any injuries to their muscles or egos.   Colin Calls the Help Desk by Elwood Scott An Irreverent Tale of Corporate Life.
