The Soda Popcast

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

It is with a heavy heart, that The Soda Popcast announces its first (and hopefully only) hiatus. We will be back as soon as we can, everyone.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

We hope that you are all staying safe, we appreciate your support of our show, and we hope to be back soon.

THANK YOU & YOUR SUPPORT

HOSTS: 

Andrew: Andrew is a musician, podcaster, and general nerd who enjoys any and everything that tells a story. His first foray into podcasting, The Hillwalk Podcast, was something he began doing just for fun, with no equipment. He quickly found himself enjoying podcasting and has been creating content for the medium ever since.

Dario: He emerged as if from the mist… new, yet fully formed, but sure of one thing… there is no point to uncarbonated water. Siddhartha spent 40 years under a bodhi tree to find enlightenment. Dario, an early bloomer, found it at the age of five realizing he could add soda pop and candy to watching anime and playing videos games and reach Nirvana. Dario (alder wood, year of the tiger, Aries) likes puppies, sunsets, walks on the beach, movies that explore the emotional connections that binds we humans to another in a dance of vulnerability and courage, chicken wings-medium spicy, and Sodapop. Here’s what you need to know;

• Pepper: Yes, please.
• A+W: Thank you.
• Weinhard’s: Don’t mind if I do.
• Coke: Okay.
• RC: If I must.
• Pibb: NO.
• Pepsi: Oh, look at the time.

Aeron: Aeron is originally from England, lived in PA for many years before relocating to California.  She likes to travel when she has time, loves to bake (though she doesn’t eat it), and is an avid reader of Sci-Fi and Fantasy.  She has one daughter and that is more than enough.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Your hosts return yet again to deliver what is probably the weakest theme of any episode to date.

Episode #16 of The Soda Popcast is here, everyone!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

In the thrilling conclusion of the unexpected cliffhanger that was the end of our last episode, your hosts take on yet another of Aeron’s nightmares; pickle soda. In another bout between Lester’s Fixins and Granpda Joe’s Candy Shop, who will be the winner? Or perhaps, will we all lose in the end by continuing to do this to ourselves? Will Aeron tough it out yet again, or will she finally realize her mistake and leave Andrew and Dario to find peace and happiness? Find out on Episode #15 of The Soda Popcast.

Andrew continues his never-ending quest to bring the wrath of Aeron and Dario (and potentially God) upon himself by subjecting himself and his co-hosts to Grandpa Joe’s Ketchup Soda and Lester’s Fixins Mustard soda. Will Andrew’s choices in this batch of sodas ketchup to him, or will he relish the opportunity to watch his co-hosts suffer through? Have a listen in our 14th episode of The Soda Popcast once you’ve mustard up the courage to do so.

Aeron takes the lead this week to introduce Andrew and Dario to some beverages of British descent. Kicking things off with Lucozade Orange (now being branded as an energy drink), on to Vimto Fizzy Fruit Juice, and then closing the show with Lilt. Will these sodas be new favorites for The Soda Popcast crew? Will Aeron turn on beverages from her homeland due to new information coming to light? Will Andrew get through one episode without a horrible pun or dad joke? Tune in to find out in episode #13!

We’re baaaaack. The Three Amigos (Aeron, Andrew, and Dario, respectively) are kicking it old school with just the three of us (we just had to one up you, Will Smith). This episode, your hosts take on Peanut Butter Old Fashioned, Chocolate, and then wrap things up with a healthy dose of Rosa’s Arroz Con Leche Sweet Rice Soda (also known as horchata soda for the uninitiated). Exactly how many times will Aeron tell Andrew and Dario to shut up? Will these sodas be drinkable? Tune in and find out for yourself!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Join Aeron, Andrew, and Dario (and their guests, Kelly and Zarek!) as they attempt to take on a lineup of Gross Gus’s sodas, Dragon Drool, Bloody Nose, and Pimple Pop. Will they once again question why they started doing this show in the first place, or will they find some unlikely favorites? Will Dario be able to pronounce the word licorice correctly? Will Aeron get though an episode without saying something mean to Andrew? Well, obviously… no to that last question. But tune in for answers to the others!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Your hosts once again sit down with re-occurring guest, Zarek, and first-time guest, Kelly, to tackle some more sodas under the ungodly supervision of the Lester’s Fixins label. The fabulous five take on ranch dressing, buffalo wing, and peanut butter and jelly sodas. Will they find an unlikely new favorite, or will they be punished for their willingness to drink such beverages in exchange for fleeting hopes of internet popularity? Tune in to the 10th episode (10!) and find out.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

The Soda Popcast is back at it again with a chaotic cavalcade of cream sodas. Despite Aeron’s hatred of cream sodas, your hosts take on the cream sodas from Fireman’s Brew, Rocket Fizz, and Farrah Fawcett (yes, really, she has her own cream soda). Will Aeron form a new cream soda branch of the whine and cheese club? Will Dario and Andrew help her blind eyes see the light? Or will everything fall in the middle into a moat of mediocrity? Find out on episode #9 of The Soda Popcast.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Everyone’s favorite trio… what’s that? We’re not everyone’s favorite trio? You say many prefer the pop rock powerhouse Hanson? Well… fair enough. A trio, Aeron, Andrew, and Dario, are back for more with a lineup of sodas specially selected by one of our friends at Rocket Fizz. Your hosts imbibe a duo of cherry sodas and cap things off with a bottle of strawberries and cream. Will our friends from Rocket Fizz bring us what our taste buds truly desire, or were they just suggesting things because they found someone who would try literally anything? Can your hosts remember the name of the Rocket Fizz employee or will they resort to a pet name instead? Find out on this week’s episode of The Soda Popcast.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

The Soda Popcast will be back for more with our ninth episode on 2/25! Stay tuned and make sure you are subscribed so you can listen as soon as it drops.
