This might be our favorite episode so far! Is it because Brandon and Jack brought some amazing coffee samples to the podcast studio? Partly, but we also had a blast sitting down with Brandon, owner of the Espresso Shoppe in North Platte and his son Jack. We're big fans of coffee around here and this duo did not disappoint. We learned a latte about coffee, roasting beans, and brew techniques. Check out this episode to learn more about what the amazing  Espresso Shoppe has to offer, located in the Historic Canteen District in North Platte.
