Wishful Drinking

Season Two EP: 5 Robbie Heriman (Foundry Coffee House)

Let's be honest, there's a lot of wholesome nonsense in this one. This week we sat down with one of our very own, Robbie Heriman, to learn more about his journey in coffee and what excites him. From bodegas to water sommeliers, pour over coffee to Red Bull, we have you covered.  We may not get too deep into coffee, but we do get deep into fun. So sit back, relax, and enjoy a conversation between to guys who get way too excited about all the beverages. You'll be glad you did! Wishful Drinking is (almost) always recorded live in Downtown Tyler, Tx at The Foundry Coffee House over a delicious cup of coffee.

Season Two EP: 3 Eric Barton (Bethel Bible Church)

Why would a church open a coffee shop in the middle of a (largely) empty downtown Tyler in 2014? We wanted to know too, so we sat down with Campus Pastor of the Bethel Bible Downtown, Eric Barton, to find out why. Eric is a brilliant communicator, who's vision and love for our community, led Bethel to embark on something we're pretty excited about. Hint: it's the whole reason we're here! The Foundry is a unique shop. We don't function like you'd expect a church coffee shop to function. There are no Bible verses on the wall and we never hand out tracts. There is, however, a real focus on excellent coffee and even better hospitality, with no strings attached. We hope that's been your experience.  Join us as we dive deep and talk about the good things happening right here in downtown Tyler, Tx!
