Over the years one of our ongoing goals has been to plan farther in advance to have podcasts that tie in to holidays or certain times of the year. Often by the time we begin planning it is too late to purchase the item or items we need, record and edit the podcast and have…
A few weeks back during one of our live streams we did something for the first time at About Beverages; one of us opened a birthday present! Andrew’s birthday is at the end of January and since Keith had not yet given him his gift, we thought it might be fun to open it on…
This year has presented all of us with several “firsts.” No matter which ones you are thinking of and your perspective, there have been challenges to overcome.
