Cabin Fever Episode 1 - Pilsner, precarious work, and John Wick Parabellum

My name is Eoghan Walsh from Brussels Beer City, and you’re listening to the very first episode of Cabin Fever - less a podcast than a group therapy session for writers, brewers, and friends who like to enjoy a beer together but, well, can’t.

There’s a lot going on in the world right now, and under normal circumstances we’d get together in the pub and thrash it out over a beer or two. But we can’t - because most of us now live in countries where it’s impossible to go outside, never mind nip around the corner for a drink.

So, we thought we’d do it remotely, and on each episode of Cabin Fever I’ll be joined by friends from around the world to share a beer, talk through and process what they’re dealing with, and sometimes just have a bit of a moan.

I’m delighted to be joined tonight for this inaugural episode by:

Emily Sauter (@PintsandPanels), based in New England, creator of the Pints and Panel comic strip, contributor to Pellicle Magazine, and beer educator and Advanced Cicerone.

Lily Waite (@LilyWaite_), award-winning founder of The Queer Brewing Project, ceramicist, and writer and photographer at Good Beer Hunting, Pellicle Magazine, VinerPair and others.

And Rich Soriano (@craftbeeryall), lambic renaissance man and a good friend.

In it, we talk precarious work, whether the worst is yet to come, and the value of “premium” subscriptions in helping us through these tough times.

Listen in.
