So we might not have had a new episode this week, but there’s a new Vinylly Friday episode featuring us to listen to (if you haven’t already!) Each of us brought a song to the table, got pretty drunk, and talked for 2 hours. Warning: there’s a lot of weird rants. Enjoy! #vinyl #drinklocal #podcast #thinknydrinkny #music
Episode 48: Love is in the Air (and the Water) Showing some love during the week of Valentine’s Day. As you may know we really dig talking about the Erie Canal, but Episode 48 is all about the Love Canal. We talk about how a city planned to be a clean, futuristic utopia powered by hydroelectricity lead to the creation of a toxic waste dump: the plan for a “Model City” really was a model on how not to dispose of toxic waste, and once you do dispose of that toxic waste, how not to handle a national emergency fueled by sickness, death, and birth defects. This all happened along the Niagara Escarpment, which also happens to be where our drink this week is from. We discuss yet another story of pollution in WNY while sipping Riesling from Freedom Run Winery. Learn about the history of the Niagara Region as well as all of New York State’s impact on winemaking. . . .

Apparently even the cabinets and high ceilings at @mcdermottlofts are cat-friendly!
Happy blustery Friday everyone! This week, we were joined by our buds Tim and Eddie from @vinyllyfridaypod for a regular ol’ collab-a-thon! This time around, we let them pick the brewery: we drank Main Course DDHIPA by Belt Line Brewery & Kitchen, a brand-new brewery and taproom that just opened down in the Hydraulic neighborhood. And as things generally go around here, the brewery decided the history for this episode…so more trains! Buckle up: we’re all quite inebriated for this one (good thing we took the train!) And since it was a “collab-a-thon,” there’ll be a new episode of Vinylly Friday featuring us coming up soon! We’ll keep ya’ll updated on when it does, but until then, listen to the rest of their episodes–they’re some pretty funny dudes who talk about a wide range of music!
It’s our One Beer Anniversary! An entire year has passed since we started Drinking Points! This week we go back to Episode 1, and reminisce about (read: completely rip on) our Pilot Episode too! We were welcomed back to record at Big Ditch Brewing Company yet again, which coincides with all of our Erie Canal chit chat on the first episode. Episode 45 is all about poking fun at our past selves and expanding on ideas we had a year ago! Cheers! . . . #historypodcast #beerpodcast #buffalopodcasts #thinknydrinkny #drinklocal
Years of posting up outside of bars for the next scrap of food is over. Begging for beer? Alive and well. 🍻😺
