    Does anyone listen for quality control
    The content is extremely valuable and is presented in a way and structure that makes the show flow nicely. However, and I understand no one went to school for broadcasting, but there still has to be a minimum level of professionalism, like, right, like, sort of, right like right, like like like like like like… and someone is allergic to the black mold in her home… like like like like like
  • b-b-b-brian
    Skip first 8-10 minutes
    Informative content begins after enduring these inauthentic marketing personalities catching up with each other. No value there. Guests are the best part. Maybe guests could host the show?

    Great podcast filling a massive void
    Really enjoy listen to this podcast every week. Very informative and easy to listen to. I feel like they fill a void in the craft beer podcast realm. Not just three dumb white guys in their 30s (which I am) talking about beer and what they think of the hops.
  • joshrinard

    So fun and funny!
    If you like beer, or bikes, or skiing. Or Bend Oregon. This makes me want to move to Bend and work in the brewing industry.

    I’m unsubscribing do to the appalling sexism in episode 44.
    I have been listening to and enjoying Brew Bound for as long as I have been enjoying podcasts about beer, I have been involved in the craft beer community for over 3 years now as well. I used to love the news articles that they shared with their audience and their in-depth interviews with pivotal members of the community. This all changed today while I was listening to episode 44 of the podcast where our hosts shared an article from Uproxx publications where they highlight the top 10 beer influencers to follow on Instagram. 8 out of the 10 influencers are women, and apparently a little know fact about women is that they typically have breasts which seems to be a fact that the hosts cannot appreciate because they go on to imply that these womens’ instagrams are not worth of being influential, regardless that they have more followers that the non-female Instagram pages, because they wear tight clothes and their faces aren’t always in their pictures. They also continue to say that the way to become an influencer is clearly by wearing tight clothes and being a pretty woman. I am appalled that these men who are extremely influential in the beer community and who are employed by an EXTREMELY pivotal and influential and important beer media and education outlet would down grade these women like this and would imply that their knowledge and passion for beer is false, and that they only have the influence they have earned due to their appearance. Clearly they do not appreciate the hard work, dedication, hours of networking and photo editing, and all the other incredibly time consuming things it takes to earn the title of Instagram influencer. I am disgusted by the blatant sexism in this podcast episode. This right here is the reason women and minorities feel unwelcome in the beer community and so many of us are working so hard to create inclusion and it is appalling that a podcast with this much reach would allow this! Shame on you! For these reasons I am unfollowing Brew Bound’s podcast. I am sure that once the hundreds of thousands of Instagramers who follow these women hear this garbage they will feel the same way. Shame on you.
  • Matebro
    Great insights
    Great podcast- really great insights on the industry.
  • Jack82617181
    Good content - terrible humor
    I really love the information presented in their intro topics and the interviews are typically fantastic. However, the banter and jokes are groan worthy. I would prefer to just hear the interviews and skip past the rip-off segments are terrible humor.

    Beer News
    These guys do a great job taking us in to the complicated and in depth world of craft beer. The business side of things is so much complicated than you would ever think but their interviews make it real. I love it!

    Highly Recommended!
    Any and all craft beverage enthusiasts encouraged to listen. The interviews thus far have been very insightful. The hosts are experts in this field and offer their own perspective and insight into the industry! The only constant is craft beverage is change! This podcast will help in staying connected to the innovation and trends happening around us.
