My "Wicked Columbus, Indiana" keeps hanging in... Continue Reading →

The headline says "aplenty." Maybe two isn't really "aplenty," but considering the podcast interviews I did came less than two weeks apart, and I'd only done one prior to that, I think "aplenty" works just fine. My wife, Kimberly S. Hoffman, and I were interviewed by Johnny Lyles and David Banks for Brother Brother Beer... Continue Reading →
