Finback Brewery CEO and Co-Founder Basil Lee

Season 3 · Episode 3

mercredi 17 juillet 2024Duration 50:40

Basil Lee took quite the circuitous route to co-founding a craft brewery. He attended art school on the road to becoming an architect, working for a large firm for almost 10 years. As so often happens, Basil came to a crossroads. Does he keep progressing with his current company? Does he try to open his own firm? Or is it time for a new challenge altogether?

Basil chose to dive into the craft beer world with art school friend and Finback Brewery co-founder Kevin Stafford. Together they secured a space in little-traveled Glendale, a neighborhood in Queens that’s a good 30-minute walk from the closest subway station.

Over the years, Basil has been remarkably creative in positioning the business for success, pivoting to a delivery service during the pandemic and designing each space for different experiences.

Hear how that flexibility - and his unique talents - have helped Finback grow into a beloved part of the vibrant New York City beer scene in this illuminating conversation.

Composer and Arranger Don Hart

Season 1

mercredi 11 mai 2022Duration 32:37

If you’re a fan of the band Phish (a phan), you probably know Don Hart or at least have heard the fruits of his labor. He's lead guitarist Trey Anastasio's composer and arranger and Don's transformed some of Trey and Phish's most beloved and well-known tunes into orchestral masterpieces.

All of that work culminated in the Beacon Jams - a pandemic-inspired eight-show live stream residency at an empty Beacon Theater in New York City. Trey and his friends didn't repeat a song the entire run and the repertoire ranged from Phish compositions with the Trey Anastasio Band to incorporating a string quartet, at times pushing Don to turn around those parts in less than a week.

Among some of the highlights In this light and eye-opening conversation, Don tells us what that experience was like, how he goes about arranging Trey and Phish's music, and which tune was the most challenging to adapt (it might surprise you!)
