Episode 11: Better Living Through Ayahuasca with Joel Beauchamp

The eleventh episode of The Food Coma Podcast is a special one for me.For many of us, it’s a long, hard road out of Hell. It is not a place, Hell is a state of mind. It embodies darkness in its purest form and can continue to torture some people for their whole lives. I speak with my dear friend Joel Beauchamp about his personal journey out. We also discuss Trick or Treating and Ativan (but not the combination of the two).

I have known Joel since 2007 when we met during the highly debaucherous “Deathmatch Era,” and both of our life views have continued to evolve in a parallel fashion ever since. He was the co-host of Food Coma TV, and has been pretty much involved in every one of my projects since then (he was even a permanent fixture on the blog, back in the day. When asked to define his “Title” in life, his answer is “Professional Enjoyer.”

Please enjoy. You can also find the episode on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play!, and Stitcher.

Episode 10: Water, Milk, and Zoroastrianism with Shahin Khojastehzad

In the tenth episode of The Food Coma Podcast we entertain local legend Shahin Khojastehzad to find out what really makes a man want to spend an entire day consuming alcoholic milk beverages. Shahin is part-owner of one of the world’s foremost beer bars – Novare Res, in Portland, ME – so naturally, the conversation drifts that way occasionally as well. Just to be sure, we confirm that the only way to ever know that beer is cold enough to drink is to make sure those mountains on the can are sapphire blue. Anyone looking for any last-minute gift ideas will be delighted by the “12 Wines of Christmas.”

Shahin, like myself, is a discerning water drinker, and we talk about his experience with renowned Water Sommelier Martin Riese. Also, Prime Rib, the OJ Simpson game of Pogs and my father’s reaction to my eating prowess a The Sizzler. Lastly, for the Maine OG’s, we “Take it to the Showroom” to get this car FIXED for good.
