Some companies have been naughty and it’s time for us to talk about them. First, we crack open some beers. Ben has already got one on the go and finishes Shelby from Thornbridge in the first few minutes, Aadil drinks Hugs & Kisses from Brouwerij De Molen, Lucy has been to Burning Soul to pick up the Raspberry Ripple and Ben opens Galaga from Brew York. Then we get em. Aadil discusses the bad branding and messaging of the beer Karen Sour from Calgary brewer Common Crown Brewing Co.

More beers are needed after the conversation so Aadil has Van Vollenhoven & Co Extra Stout, Lucy jumps on the Brew York train with Big Eagle 2020 and Ben finishes with Touch Sensitive from North Brewing Co. Lucy lightens the mood with a discussion on the games she has played including Bird Alone, The Great Perhaps and Ultracore. Conversation then descends to the dark depths some gaming companies have fallen to recently and Ben asks at what point do we stop supporting a developer?

Ben is like a fine wine, he spends far to much time in cellars. He deliberately developed a stutter and a slur and walks with a limp to conceal his raging alcohol problem. Once beat up a fish for looking at him funny. Ben hosts the Tanked up podcast, but we are pretty sure he isn't aware of that.
