You've heard of a bucket list. But what about a chuck-it list? Ted & Roy talk about what a chuck it list is & what it's good for. In segment 2, they talk about the business of craft beer and taste a world class wheat beer from Bavaria.

In segment one (retirement) Roy and I discuss how to find your purpose or passion and why that's important. In the second segment (beer) we reminisce about the ubiquitous lagers of our youth and compare them with an elevated craft lager - Pacific Wonderland from Deschutes.

This is Ted Carr, founder of retirement journeys, welcoming you to RetireHoppy.com. Here's what our unique podcast is all about. Picture two retired guys hanging out over a couple of beers. That would be me and Roy Weinberg. We'll discuss a retirement topic that we ran across in a blog, or magazine or perhaps a website. Then we follow that with our take on the beer. How can you go wrong pairing beer with retirement? Our goal in the first segment of the podcast is to share our experience to help you plan for, adjust to or just get you thinking about retirement. In the second segment we give our impression of the beer we're drinking – why we like it or don't, its style and expression, the brewery and how it compares with other beers.
