Join hosts Gabe Cook, Grant Hutchison and Martyn Goodwin-Sharman in the Neutral Cider Hotel, as they "oracled there until" this whole thing blows over!

Gabe catches the guys off guard with anagrams and embattled bladder stones. Grant then praises J’adore Le Plonk by Rachel Hendry and Martyn celebrates the 20th birthday of Limp Bizkit’s Chocolate Starfish & the Hotdog Flavoured Water.

Martyn kicks off the news with a story about Hawkes getting 12 tonnes of community sourced apples through the mail, before chatting about the founder’s departure from the company. Grant then highlights a Men’s Health article on an oddly numbered, top 11 ciders. For Gabe's birthday, he had quick cider drinks with beard envy general Gwatkins, and a bottle of Eve’s Cidery Albee Hill 2019 made it one to remember. Grant wraps it up in trendsetting Clitheroe in Lancashire, with the news of Tom and Katy Mather’s bar, Corto.

The guys then chat with the wonderful Helen Anne Smith, the creator of Burum Collective. A community blog ran by volunteers, they’ve provided an inclusive space for discussion and creativity in the beer, wine and cider scenes. They discuss inclusivity within hospitality, holding a CV up to scrutiny, Grant’s enthusiasm, and education within the drinks industries.

For this week’s tasting, the guys get a different bottle each from the same maker: Sundström Cider. Made in the Hudson Valley, New York, Leif Sundström brings a wine like sensibility to each of the bottles on show. The range showcases varieties and techniques, and is worth the mop and bucket!

Gabe then busts out his new game; Ciderology Knowledgy (aka CiderKnowledgy)!

Finally, the guys answer the listeners questions, featuring the brown house, ciders for the cooler months, manly spliff’s CV and a post apocalyptic future. The guys then say goodbye, and Martyn is banned from Scotland.
