I did a lot of traveling last year and I wanted to recap my adventures with my travel buddy.

So here’s our take on concerts, connecting with amazing people and learning about different cultures.

We went to Mexico, Vegas, New Orleans, Spain, Australia, Brussels, Amsterdam, and London!

We talk to one of the owners of Black Lung Brewery about his journey of learning more about beer and ownership has been going since 2020.

Today’s guest is redefining what it means to distill legacy and precision — one bottle at a time.

He’s a military veteran, a Bronze Star recipient, and the visionary founder behind Porta Ye Vodka — a spirit crafted from French winter wheat, artesian water, and pure dedication.

Today, I’m sitting down with Marcus Wyatt, the mind and muscle behind Windy Bridges Brewing — a name that already sounds like it’s got a story behind it. Marcus is part of a new wave of brewers redefining what community and craft beer look like, bringing flavor, identity, and creativity to every pour.

We’re talking about how he got started, what inspires his brews, the wild experiments that didn’t quite make it to the taproom, and what it means to be a Black brewer building bridges — literally and figuratively — in today’s beer scene.

“Alright y’all — let’s give a big round of applause for a true innovator in the craft beer galaxy!

She’s a visionary, a creative, and a force shaping the future of beer and culture — please welcome the founder of Spaceway Brewing, the one and only Briana Brake!”
