The lads start the episode on the friday night, get interrupted by some local booze hounds, and end up dragging one of them on to the show by the sunday. The boys wag chins with Jay Carrillo, a former craft beer industry worker, on his experiences in home brewing and the independent brewing world, whilst draining a few black IPA's (and a cheeky Barrel-Aged Flanders Red), talking the usual banter and laughs the Park Bench is known for.

The lads team up with Melbourne Hip Hop stalwarts Dyl Thomas (Pang Productions) and Royalz (Grhyme Productions) to talk everything from music production, record shopping, Melbourne hip hop and more, all the while sipping on some spectacular West Coast IPA's curated by Karlito. The fellas brave the ever-unpredictable Melbourne weather while getting a rare insight into decades of music experience between the two guests, and plenty of wild stories are told from the dudes behind the discographies. The crew even uproot mid pod to duck the deluge of rain and wind up in one of Melbourne's rowdiest boozers to finish the ep. Definetly one for the memory banks. Tune in and let the Park Bench take you on a journey...
