Drinking Partners #192 – Buzzy Torek | Epicast Network

The Drinking Partners celebrate their last podcast recording of 2018 by reflecting on their achievements with gratitude and awe before welcoming a very special guest. After years of being on the other side of the mic, the Drinking Partners enthusiastically welcome their producer Buzzy Torek, who continues to work as they record. What follows is a unique listen that offers a glimpse into how Epicast Network got started. The trio discusses how they each discovered craft beer and their journeys from basic beer to, as Ed calls it, “bougie beer.” Up first in their studio sampling is a peanut butter stout from Dancing Gnome, which receives a thorough analysis. Buzzy, who is a photographer for Craft Pittsburgh, brings knowledge and experience to the interview as he shares his thoughts on all things Pittsburgh and beer (and admits which are his favorite Drinking Partners episodes). Day dubs Buzzy, “a third of the cast,” and, after that (and with the beer kicking in), the conversation livens up. An IPA is followed by a double chocolate stout that receives mixed reviews. Tune in until the end to hear Ed sing as he reminisces about his missed musical career. A beer-centric episode that highlights the man behind the success of the Drinking Partners.
