This podcast ain't about coffee. I recorded another jogcast during the Leadville Trail 100. This is the audio from the race and a little post-race commentary. Rough.

Lots of commentary on this podcast about Starbucks and Clover; about Nick Cho and Murky Coffee; about the perceived differences between peaberries and flat beans; about the Leadville 100 and our fundraising effort for Coffee Kids.
Listen up. Jason and Brian rock the mic (or whatever).

It's the second half of the SCAA Convention. Isaiah and I team up to tell the rest of the story. Mark Prince, Ethiopia, Billy Wilson, Doug Zell, Chris Baca and mini me, Synesso, Barefoot Andy, siphon coffee, Caribou, the Holy Coffee Bean, and the USBC. Drink more coffee.

The SCAA tradeshow report, part 1. Jason and I chit chat about how hot it's gotten all of a sudden. And what we did at the SCAA convention in Minneapolis. Highlights include Mark Pendergrast, Bill McAlpin, George Howell, Jay Caragay, Nick Cho, Martin Diedrich, Reg Barber, our new Compak grinder, and exciting coffees on their way to the DoubleShot.

It's the BIG 50th episode of AA Cafe! Isaiah and I bore you through one more episode. We encourage you to ask questions (of Nick Cho mostly). Mark Prince of Coffeegeek calls in and praises the DoubleShot Coffee Company - what a sweetie pie. I tell a little about my trip to Guatemala (don't miss the mugging). And I ask a lot of questions about coffee processing.

The Waylon F'ing Jennings of the Coffee World? It's the last AA Cafe of 2007. Isaiah returns as the ambassador to the people in our quest for World Coffee Domination. Listen and learn how to make coffee without electricity, what happens when you lie about coffee, and what happens when my girlfriend calls while we're podcasting.

This is the one that got away. I originally recorded podcast 13 with David Fell of Stonewood Coffee & Tea, but being the unlucky episode, things went awry and the sound files disappeared from existence. Not even David the computer guru could recover them. So Isaiah and I re-recorded #13 for your listening pleasure.
New coffee technologies are unveiled, plus a couple phone-in guests.

We've moved on to become the Emiliano Zapata of coffee podcasting. Isaiah co-hosts again, and we briefly discuss his coffee history. Our advice this week concerns gift-giving (since Christmas time is near and people seem to enjoy buying things for each other this time of year). Three different coffees from DoubleShot are recommended this week, as well as a book about coffee (nice gift?). And you don't want to miss the Coffee Illuminati "Art" party on 12/6/2007 from 7-10p.

We're the Rush Limbaugh of coffee podcasting. That's right. AA Cafe 47 is all about education. Isaiah and Brian give you lots of ideas about how to educate yourself about coffee. So you don't have to "wake up special every day."

Jogcast #3 The Leadville Trail 100 in Leadville Colorado. My final attempt to finish what many say is the toughtest ultra in the US. You have no idea how hard it is.
