#45: Peter Bissell | Bissell Brothers

Amid a precarious time for securing in-person guests, we decided
to keep it in the family this week. We talk with Peter Bissell,
co-founder of Bissell Brothers, co-owner of High Roller Lobster
Co., and most critical to this conversation, Noah's older
brother. Matt gets himself comfortable in the interview chair,
and walks through some of the key points in the trajectory of
Bissell Brothers history as well as Peter and Noah's
relationship, getting the individual perspective of each brother
along the way. Through this broad conversation (or therapy
session, depending), the guys talk about growing up in the
poorest and least populated county in Maine, the genesis of the
brewery, the growing pains they faced with themselves and each
other while trying to grow their business, and their unified
desire to bring the brewery back to where their door-to-door
gourd sales operation had once flourished. We also search for the
TRUE Baby Genius, discuss "Death Houses", and dissect childhood
pranks in this emotional rollercoaster of an episode.
