A Beer & A Podcast – The Hero’s Journey


I am an intermittent podcast listener but I have my favorites in both beer and non-beer topics so in the spirit of A Book & A Beer posts, I am going to do the occasional podcast recommendation. With beers too, of course.

My initial podcast is The Hero’s Journey. I am biased since I work with one half of the team that is using the Joseph Campbell template of The Hero and applying it to modern works of fiction and movies. From Harry Potter to John McClane, they track how these characters fit or don’t fit that classic mode. Plus they have a beverage break in each episode.

Which is where the beer recommendation comes in. Spoiler alert for episode 1, they drink San Fernando Imperial Death Star Stout and I would add that you could also add in the new Wookus from Firestone Walker as well.
