Samantha Hallig on Starting A Baked Goods Side Hustle, Life During the Pandemic and Wedding Planning! #66

In this episode of the podcast, Samantha Hallig (my favorite person) comes on the podcast and we have some fun. Samantha is a chef (culinary arts professional) and she has recently started selling delicious baked goods with her side project called, "Sams Fav F Word". 

This episode was hilarious and we jump from serious topics to not-so-serious topics such as;  Samantha's experience moving to Canada, how Sam puts up with my craziness, our upcoming wedding (hopefully post-pandemic), our favorite celebrities, and our future home in Vancouver. 

This podcast was a blast to record (and highly requested) so I hope you enjoy our conversation because this is basically a look into our fun life.

#33 Dan Ferchat on Making Moonshine, Bow Hunting and Sustainable Living - Living the Canadian Dream W/ Bradley Thompson

#33 Dan Ferchat on Making Moonshine, Bow Hunting and Sustainable Living - Living the Canadian Dream W/ Bradley Thompson

In this week's podcast, Dan Ferchat from Copperhead Distillery and Spirits stops by and we talk about the distillery business, bow hunting and sustainable living. We seriously go deep into how Dan and his family's business have created a name for themselves in the competitive world of alcohol, what their top selling products are and the process behind making their famous moonshine, rum and vodka! I personally learnt a lot about the process of making alcohol and to be honest it will blow your mind. For example, do you know how they test the percentage of alcohol in a beverage? I bet you don't! In this conversation we also discuss Dan's love for the outdoors in regards to bow hunting, trapping, sustainable living and trail running! We go into depth about hunting, the benefits of hunting for the environment and one of the craziest hunting experiences Dan has ever had (it's wild)!  So sit back and relax because this conversation with Dan Ferchat was an awesome one!   💯 Question of the Day:  Why are you doing what you do?  Ask yourself this and make sure you have a reason behind the things that you are doing on a daily basis and make sure you aren't just going through the motions.  🥃 About CopperHead Distillery Copperhead Distillery and Spirits was established in 2016 in Sundrige, Ontario (way up north) by Dan Ferchat and his family. This is a family owned distillery and they have become well known for their popular moonshine, rum and vodka. They are growing fast and if you want to try out their awesome alcohol (I recommend the Apple Pie Moonshine) then order some from their website or you can even find some of their most popular products at LCBO!
