  • Growing up in a pub & natty no-nos with Ben Wood from Corner Dairy
    Nice to jump on the hospo side for this yarn. Benny Wood is one of Masto’s good mates, and the venue manager at one of our faves, Corner Dairy in Doubleview. It’s a bar that’s all about local, with an exclusive Australian only wine list. Amen to that. During this ep, the boys bounce around. Benny talks about being a kid who grew up living in pubs, he gives his thoughts on when natty wine went too far and stacks more. Masto brings in a couple of bottles of his favourite local drops, while sharing an origin story about his lack of bladder capacity. Belly laughs galore here. Cheers! Pouring during this ep, Marchand & Burch Barrow Chardonnay and Low Boi Riesling. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  • Backstage & behind the pass with Sam Smith from The Beefs
    Fire watching. Backstage antics. Elective surgery gone wrong. This chat has it all. Sam Smith is one of those people. He’s done stuff. He’s seen things. And he hits the fork in the road at full speed. During this ep, Sammy talks about his early days as a chef, starting out at Perth institution Duende, before he left to work on remote islands up north and later start one of Bondi’s most loved cafes. He tells Masto and JB how muso and mate Matt Corby helped him leave the kitchen behind to pursue the tunes. Thanks for that, Matt. The Beefs are a vibe, combining Aussie pub, surf and rock culture in a way only Sammy can. If you haven’t already, go have a listen. This ep brings heaps of stories from the road (shoutout Amyl and the Sniffers), some deep thoughts on the therapeutic qualities of watching a fire, and plenty of laughs from Masto’s overshares about elective surgery.

There are stories of transition, from making wine for some of Australia’s biggest names, to going out on your own. Does it ever get old seeing your name on a bottle? Nope.Larry explains how great wine starts with great soil, diving into what makes Frankland River so special. We get the time-machine out and see how the local wine industry would look if we started it all again today, while skipping to the future for a look ahead. Hosted on Acast.
