Episode 125: Strange Brews: Weird Studies Live at Illuminated Brew Works
b'
On May 23, 2022, Meredith Michael joined JF and Phil for a live recording at Illuminated Brew Works, a craft brewery in Chicago, Illinois.The occasion was the launch of Weird Studies Black IPA, the fruit of a collaboration with IBW brewmaster Brian Buckman and his team of beer alchemists. The game plan was to talk about potions, but the final conversation ranges over a number of topics including singularity and repetition, time and eternity, alchemy and ritual, Okakura Kakuz\\u014d\'s The Book of Tea, cooking and pickling, and the cultural phenomenon Phil calls "weedhead sh*t."
