BEERS: It’s always a good time when Bissell Brothers enters the chat, and this week Will takes a stab at reviewing this titan of beer in Maine.  Jake reviews a “fruited pancake” brown ale from Reverie Brewing Company in Newtown, Connecticut. Both beers this week should be on your list.

BUSINESS: Jack Dorsey has been running Twitter since its inception in 2006, but announced to the world that he will be stepping down from his post as the CEO & Chairman effective this upcoming May.  Is this good for Twitter, or did Dorsey take the fall for others that are spearheading the censorship there?  Black Friday has come and gone, and the numbers are in - sales are 48% higher than last year, but 28% down from 2019 levels.  Will Black Friday ever be the same?

BALLS: Ed Cooley had humble beginnings when he grew up on the south side of Providence - but years later, he returned to his hometown to become the head coach of the Providence Friars and establish a legacy of his own.  Coach Cooley joins the show (33:22) to discuss his upbringing in the Creative Capital, his academic and athletic success at Stonehill, and his learnings from teaching high school history in Bridgewater.  Cooley takes us through his early lessons as a head coach in Fairfield, building a program at Providence, recruiting, weight loss, and good eats around the 401.
