Episode 13: "Family" Christmas w/ Andy & Jackie Zuker and Nik Jacinto

Host Ben Rice travels to Applegate, CA, to chat with longtime friends Jackie Zuker (environmental biologist), Andy Zuker (owner of The Moving Crew, sole member of one-man band ThunderVision) and Nik Jacinto (jack of all trades, Renaissance man) to discuss what makes a family (spoiler: it ain't blood) over non-regional beers (Deschutes Abyss 2015, Victory Storm King, Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald). Hear our origin stories, feats of strength, Andy's first encounter with craft beer snobs, Nik's stunning emotional depth, Jackie's hard-hitting fact-based analyses and contagious laughter. Find out that none of us knew we all had, at some point, spent time living in not-houses/apartments. Stories of death, triumph, love, and the best day ever. Plus the first non-beer alcohol review in Barley & Me history, plus so much more!Follow Barley & Me on Twitter & Instagram @barleyandmepod"Like" us on FacebookFollow Ben's comedy on Twitter @comedianbenriceTheme Music: "JamRoc" by Breez (@4proaudio)Artwork by Jessica DiMesio (Instagram @a_living_cliche)
