    #71 - Blue 42: Coffee Meets Cannabis

    #71 - Blue 42: Coffee Meets Cannabis

    If you wish some version of the sitcom "Cheers" came back to life in the modern era, enter Blue 42 in Dahlonega, GA.  Situated walking distance from the historic Dahlonega Square and University of North Georgia, this is what I have dubbed a "new staple" in the North GA landscape.  Great coffee, locally grown cannabis products sold responsibly to help those who need the healing side of the plant-properties, and a sweet treat at 4:20 on the regular.  Have a listen and come back to "Norm!".

    #70 - Living Water Winery & Vineyard

    If you need a day to slow down, breathe deep over some divine scenery with your adult beverage of choice, you'll be hard-pressed (that's a vintner pun) to find a better place than Living Water Winery & Vineyard in Blairsville, GA.  Then again, if your flavor is turning the dial up a little on the festivities with a glass of wine -- or craft beer -- or a wine-cocktails... this is also the place!  If you don't believe me, check out our social media for a sneak peak... you will be planning a stop within days, I can pretty much guarantee it.  And btw... there's some INSPIRING lessons about life, family, and following your calling... PLUS the best Lighting-Round answer I think we've ever had!

    #68 - Phoenix Roasters - Coffee With A Cause

    #68 - Phoenix Roasters - Coffee With A Cause

    Good coffee is one thing.  REALLY good coffee that REALLY helps people -- well, that's in a class of it's own.  Phoenix Roasters started out with a mission to help hurting people, morphed into a world-class coffee company, and has been doing both for years now -- not just here in North Georgia, but around the world as well!  Get inspired to 'make a living' through making it more about a life worth living and a legacy worth leaving!

Great Podcast

Jake does a great job of uncovering great things about North Georgia! Great ideas to go on dates or do family outings

This podcast should be listed in the religion section.

Was looking for a podcast to identify new experiences, events and activities in North Georgia but this is a religious podcast.

Great info, awful audio

Love the discoveries in these episodes and looking forward to exploring more in NGA. However, the audio is often way too low, compromised (wind blowing into mic) and is unbearable to listen to.
