Lagered Tales

In our second episode, we discuss CBC’s Someone Knows Something with the journalist behind the popular true-crime podcast, David Ridgen. We also talk to Diane Hodgins from the Shorefast Foundation to discuss social business, with a look at Newfoundland’s Fogo Island Inn. Instrumental musician Jonas Bonnetta tells us about working with the sounds of Fogo Island. Eddy Earwigg hits the streets and gets to the bottom of the term “lagered ale,” and talks to Prud’homme educator and beer expert Jeff O’Reilly!
