This episode was one that I had a lot of feelings about as someone that worked through many roles in breweries before settling into marketing and feeling like it's my wheel house.
Often times small breweries don't have the budget for an in-house marketing person. So marketing, social media, content is often left to someone with no experience or, maybe, desire to do it. We discuss these trials on today's episode.

I recently asked @libsyn.com why the link card images on all our links are insanely blurry despite uploading episode images well within the recommended specs. A 2000px x 2000px image shouldn’t look like this. Same thing happens on other social feeds. Here’s what’s happening.

Sam just had to re-schedule newly minted SNL cast member Tommy Brennan, so joining us on United We Drink is only the second most disappointing news this week.
