Episode 53 (June 24, 2021): Zac Stuart-Pontier, 2x Emmy Award Winning Producer and Co-Creator of Crimetown Providence

BEERS: With June 21st comes summer, and with summer comes outdoor beer!  It’s Sour Season once again, and the guys are coming in HOT out of the gates. Will recaps his visit to Narragansett Brewing Company’s new taproom at India Point Park in Providence, and reviews Dragonfruit Sour - an awesome summer sour that’ll leave you coming back. Jake reviews Summer Ginger Sour by Brewport, an up-and-coming spot in Bridgeport, Connecticut. If you like ginger, this is your beer; the guys follow it up with how great this would be in a cocktail.

THIS WEEK’S GUEST: Zac Stuart-Pontier might not be a household name, but you’re more than likely familiar with his work.  The two-time Emmy Award winner was recognized for his editorial work in The Jinx, Catfish, and other blockbuster films with HBO.  Zac was the brains behind Crimetown, a podcast series highlighting Buddy Cianci and the history of organized crime in Providence’s “glory days.”  Zach sits down with the guys to discuss his entry into the film career, getting people to trust him with such a “taboo” topic, playing a key role in pioneering the podcast game, and his favorite eats in Rhode Island.

BUSINESS: Crypto Crash 2.0 is here! This week, China banned financial firms from actively aiding in mining Crypto, causing Bitcoin to hit rock bottom...losing 15% of its value in June. Does this dip make an attractive buy scenario?

BALLS: The big, bad Philadelphia 76ers got bounced by the Atlanta Hawks, and are eliminated from the playoffs. Where does Ben Simmons (now definitely considered a “true bust”) end up after a disappointing NBA playoff series?  The guys run through their predictions as the Conference Finals are underway.
