In episode 2, we continue exploring Salt Lake City, this time digging ever so slightly into the "Silicon Slopes" phenomenon. SLC is a big-time tech hub, which has created a tale of two counties. Tech employees often have to make a decision: Which county is right for me? The answer has a lot to do with beer.
