My Sister Works At Wickes (Ryan Sealy from Calendonian Cider Company, Pilton Cider Tasting)

Join hosts, Gabe Cook, Grant Hutchison and Martyn Goodwin-Sharman
as they make room for all the pressing issues in the world of
cider!

Quote of the episode: “We’re a serious podcast as well as a
stupid one.” - Grant Hutchison

The boys ramble through book plugs, holiday drinks in the Cornish
sun and Scotland’s social problems, with a surprise appearance
from everyone’s favourite murderous movie villain, Buffalo
Bill.

In the news, Gabe kicks things off with The International Cider
Challenge, and the boys give a peek behind the curtain for what
it's like to judge at a cider contest. Finally, Grant clears
Rodger Wilkins’ name after a picture mixup in an American race
row!

This week’s interview is with Ryan Sealy of the Caledonian Cider
Company. One of Scotland’s finest cider makers, the guys discuss
everything from the identity of Scotland’s cider, his peculiar
diet, blending cider and his sister’s job at Wickes. Spot the
appearance of the first magical Chimera in the interview, before
it leaves!

New addition to the drinking game. In previous episodes we were
taking drinks for book plugs and horse of knowledge sightings. In
this episode, drink every time you hear the words “leaf” or
“leaves.” Staff will pick you up off the floor when it’s
over!

The guys then sample Pilton Cider’s In Touch, Martyn’s guest
blend at the Somerset cider maker’s site in collaboration with
Dunleavy Wines. It was released as a part of South West Cider
Week, with a unique unveiling featuring a poem from
Cidershit.

Finally, they answer the burning questions of their twos of
listeners, giving their informed opinions and wild guesses,
depending on the mood! Featuring all the faults of cider and
their go to picks for the start o
