Popcast 03 - Reed's Natural Energy Elixir & Spiced Apple Brew

/

They say that the third time is a charm, so will our third Popcast bring us two delicious drinks?  There's only one way to find out and that's by listening!  This week we have two products given to us by the fine folks at Reed's, first a natural energy drink and second an apple beverage, which hopefully makes up for last week's apple-related disappointment.  As a bonus we try the first drink with the "As Seen on TV" Bottle Tops.  Lots in the news including the end of the Coke and Costco saga, Coke's bubble trouble in Israel, Pepsi and Dr. Pepper are BFFs, Pepsi developing healthier snacks in CT, Reed's taking over the world, Jones' iPhone app, GABA singing Karaoke, Colorado cranking out more bizarre drinks, New York City likes to gross people out with their PSAs, a man going on a soda spilling rampage at a McDonald's, and a criminal learning that soda does not cover up DNA.  Whew!  Hope you enjoy it more than trying to put on or remove a Bottle Top.  Check out www.datassette.net for more of the music.

Popcast Episode 3

Popcast 02 - Jarritos Tamarindo & Sidral Mundet

/

We return for another episode of the Popcast.  Following up the wonder that was a soda based off of a meat replacement product, we move on to something still unfamiliar but without salt:  Jarritos Tamarindo.  Much more familiar (or is it?) is Sidral Mundet, an apple soda.  In the news we discuss a new method of starting up a beverage business, a Whole Foods exclusive soda, floating around the world on recycled bottles, Coke "teaming up" with the AAFP, kids swallowing soda tabs, Coke in Avatar and fending off robbers with soda.  Hope you enjoy it more than a watered down glass of apple soda.  Check out www.datassette.net for more of the music

Popcast Episode 2

Popcast 01 - Doc Zola & Jones Tofurky & Gravy

/

Join us, won't you, for the premier episode of The Popcast from the folks at www.thesodajerks.net.  Today we do two taste tests, one a spicy treat the other ... well, it may or may not go well with mashed potatoes, but we test it with them for your benefit!  Also in the news: Costco and Coke fight, Coke takes over food courts, soda getting taxed, Cheerwine spreading northeast, the Bottle Top gets tested and copious amounts of orange soda on Interstate 80.  Hope you enjoy it more than a soda with salt as a primary ingredient.  Check out www.datassette.net for more of the music.
