Welcome back to another episode of Ramble by the River! Today we have a special episode for you as we celebrate Earth Day (and my wedding anniversary). I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than with a conversation with the owner of North Jetty Brewing, Erik Svendsen.

We kicked off the show discussing the booming craft beer industry and the secrets behind brewing great beer. Erik shared some of his favorite brewing trends and flavor fads, as well as some of the fermentation secrets that make North Jetty's beer so tasty. We then transitioned to a discussion on the intersection of music, math, and art, and what we mean when we use the word intelligence.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg! We covered a wide range of topics, from string theory and quantum mechanics to psychedelics and ancient wisdom. We even touched on some controversial topics like Kennedy conspiracies and large-scale brainwashing.

Let's not forget about Erik's wife Michelle's wellness venture, and the incredible benefits of "daily walks" for your mental health. We also discussed the challenges of running a small business and the pros and cons of small town life. And of course, we couldn't miss the opportunity to talk about our Hood to Coast team, North Jetty Brew Crew, and Jeff's mind hacks for endurance sports.

But that's not all, folks! Here's a sneak peek of some of the other topics we covered:
