Episode 45 - Brick+Mortar: RGLR Specialty Coffee Shop ft. Sean Oh

Happy November everybody, And it's frinally another new episode sorry for the delay, life has been crazy. In this week’s episode, I had the chance to sit down with a friend of the pod the founder and owner of one of the most notable specialty coffee shops in Toronto, Sean Oh. We breakdown his life story from living between Toronto, New York and Vancouver, and how he got started in the coffee scene. Like most small business owners, we discussed what RGLR did to have to endure the pandemic, and shares some insightful realizations he's made throughout his journey. We dived deeper to understand the man behind the mission, and what his experience was like living in Canada as a Korean immigrant, and how Vancouver, now Toronto, has become his home. I had an amazing time getting to know and listen to Sean's experience, and I hope you guys enjoy the episode. Please support local businesses like the RGLR specialty coffee and bottle shop by eating and drinking out! If you're in Toronto or visiting, make sure to stop by the shop located at 548 Annette St, Toronto. You can find all of the latest bean and sake selections, on their instagram @rglr_coffee!

Episode 41 - The Talk

"So... how've you been?" Sounds like something you would say to an ex you haven't spoken to in a few months. That's how it feels to upload this episode. I wanted to share why we've been on such a long hiatus from the podcast, and what's been going on these past few months.   It's a short one, but I'll be rolling out a few more episodes to get back into the groove of things.   It feels good to be back.   - Y&F   IG: @theyoungandfinch TWITTER: @youngandfinch Song credit: Waves — The Loyalist [Audio Library Release] Music provided by Audio Library Plus Watch: https://youtu.be/6SUl0i5G89A Download / Stream: https://alplus.io/waves [https://alplus.io/waves]
