    #203 From South Korea to the U.S.: Catching Up with Kayla ShaDay & Merry Hey Day

    We’re catching up with Kayla ShaDay, who joins us from South Korea! Kayla has been on Brews & Banter before, and we had a great time hearing about life in Korea, the cost of living, and how things have changed since her last visit. Kayla also gives us an update on Merry Hey Day, the Seoul-based punk/alternative band she manages. After a successful U.S. tour with sold-out shows, we’re hoping their next trip brings them to the East Coast—and maybe even the Brews & Banter studio! 🤘 Some people call Merry Hey Day the Korean version of Green Day. You’ll have to listen and decide for yourself! https://www.merryheyday.com https://brewsnbanter.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    #199 Brews, Business & Community: Inside the Baldwinsville Chamber of Commerce

    Sometimes we have to put down the beer for a minute and talk about the people who make our community what it is—and this episode is all about Baldwinsville!Roman and Frank welcome MaryAnne Williams and Melissa Hennessey from the local Chamber of Commerce into the studio for a great conversation about what a Chamber actually does, how it supports local businesses, and the many ways it gives back to the community.We also shine a big spotlight on one of Baldwinsville's biggest events of the year: Taste of B’ville, sponsored by Romano Subaru. We're proud to be the media sponsors for this awesome event, which brings approximately 4,000–5,000 people to the island for a day packed with food, music, family fun, and local businesses.And get this—the entrance fee is only $2! That's right… two bucks.With four bands taking the stage—Ashley Cox Music, Diana Jacobs Band, Country Justice, and Infinity—plus food from local restaurants and plenty of activities for the kids, Taste of B-Ville is one of those events that truly brings the community together.We also get into Melissa's work with SECNY Federal Credit Union and the important role they play in the community. She tells us about an incredible high school program where students actually get to run a bank and learn firsthand about money, banking, and financial responsibility. How cool is that?Melissa also keeps herself extremely busy supporting multiple Chambers of Commerce and finding ways to give back to the communities she serves.And because it's something that affects just about everyone these days, we also talk about fraud and financial scams and how organizations like SECNY help protect people when those attacks happen. We're already planning a future episode dedicated specifically to fraud prevention—because that's a conversation everybody should hear.This episode is a little different from our usual Brews & Banter, but that's exactly why we love doing it. We're not just here to drink beer and talk—we want to be part of the community, highlight the people doing great things, and help strengthen the local businesses and organizations that make Central New York such a great place to live.And yes… there was still beer involved. 🍻Taste of B’ville:www.tasteofbville.comBrews & Banter:brewsnbanter.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    #196 Dancing in Time: The Story Behind the Novel with Noah Sick

    This week on Brews & Banter, Roman and Frank welcome Dennis Sick, writing under the pen name Noah Sick, to the studio to talk about his novel Dancing in Time.Dennis shares the fascinating story behind his passion for writing and how this alternate-history thriller came to life. What makes the story even more unique is that he actually wrote the book back in the 1990’s then put it away and never expected it to see the light of day. Years later, his wife discovered the manuscript and asked to read it. Her encouragement pushed Dennis to finally bring the story back to life and share it with the world.In Dancing in Time, a government conspiracy buried somewhere between 1942 and 1998 begins to unravel when a federal agent digs into the past. But the past isn't exactly a safe place when you have to go back and change it. A journey through time, generations of secrets, and choices that could rewrite the future make this a unique alternate-history adventure.You can hear the passion and excitement in Dennis's voice as he talks about the characters, the story, and the journey of finally becoming a published author. We've talked with a lot of authors on Brews & Banter, and every one has a different story about how their book came to life—Dennis's is definitely one of them.And because this is Brews & Banter, Dennis didn't just bring his story—he showed up with a huge platter of sushi, which we happily enjoyed alongside our beers! 🍣🍻📖 Want to take the journey yourself?Buy Dancing in Time on Amazon🌐 Visit Brews & Banter:https://brewsnbanter.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
