Episode 096: The One With Coffee Hot Sauce Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

We try Ujjo's yet-to-be-released hot sauce in two spice varieties at the top of the show paired with Mexico Finca La Laja roasted by Coastal Coffee Collective out of Santa Barbara, brewed up with a Fellow Clara French Press.

To help celebrate the good times and great builds, we'll be dedicating a little air space to our very favorite Build-Outs features throughout the coming months, a pop-up takeover if you will on the Coffee Sprudgecast. In the second episode, we're talking through some beautiful builds, from Pacifica to London to Whiting and Nashville. The 2021 Build-Outs of Coffee feature series is presented by Fellow and sponsored by La Marzocco, Pacific Barista Series, Marco Beverage Systems, Dona, and Sustainable Harvest.

Episode 95 The One With The Build Outs Of Coffee (Pt. 1) Jun 11, 2021

Show notes

The thrill of the build is back! Build-Outs of Coffee is rolling out hot and heavy all summer long right here on Sprudge, a very happy return indeed after 2020's unscheduled hiatus. To help celebrate the good times and great builds, we'll be dedicating a little air space to our very favorite Build-Outs features throughout the coming months, a pop-up takeover if you will on the Coffee Sprudgecast. We're calling this podcast pocket series The Build-Outs of Coffee Summer Spectacular, because we really do feel that strongly about all of it.

In the kick-off episode we're talking through some top builds from the first two weeks of Build-Outs, from Austin to Memphis to Auckland and Ho Chi Minh City. The 2021 Build-Outs of Coffee feature series is presented by Fellow and sponsored by La Marzocco, Pacific Barista Series, Marco Beverage Systems, Dona, and Sustainable Harvest.

Episode 090: The One With A Radio Play Aug 12, 2020

Show notes

Welcome to a very special episode of the Coffee Sprudgecast. For this show we're trying something a little different, so get a little snack or beverage ready—maybe a nice cup of coffee—and settle in. Here at Sprudge, we are lifelong fans of the radio play — a lost art that enjoyed its golden era in the 1920s and 1930s, before the popular adoption of television. In some ways, today's podcast boom is reminiscent of these radio days, where shows like The Shadow, Dragnet, and Dimension X captured the national imagination. This week's episode of The Coffee Sprudgecast is inspired by this era of radio, but with a thoroughly modern twist. What you're about to hear is an audio reimagining of an original piece of horror fiction that first appeared on Sprudge in the fall of 2018. Authored by Sprudge Editor At Large Michelle Johnson, the piece is called "The Panel" — and it's performed on this episode of the Coffee Sprudgecast by audio actor Nova Omega.
