Deep Dives & Light Laughs
Deep Dives & Light Laughs is a podcast about creating connection and how to build it. Hosted by Larry Carpman and Lindsay Purcell, this podcast started in the fall of 2023 after Lindsay continued to spark conversations with Larry at a popular coffee shop on the South Shore of Massachusetts, Slacktide Coffee Roasters. These regulars formed a friendship through easy conversations filled with deep dives and light laughs. Their goal is to use humor, stories, and mutual connections to explore getting to know people on a deeper level without asking the tired question, "So what do you do?" Listen to hear them interview some incredible people about what lights them up, how they cultivate connection, and IF that’s what they ended up doing for work...
Deep Dives & Light Laughs
The Untold Story
In this episode of Deep Dives & Light Laughs, we sit down with Matt Elder, founder of Untold Brewing, to talk about craft beer, community, and the journey from homebrewing in Seattle to opening one of the South Shore’s most beloved breweries.
Matt shares how his passion for brewing took shape, the inspiration behind Untold Brewing, and what it’s like running a growing business in Scituate and Plymouth. We discuss the creative process behind developing new beers, local collaborations (like the beloved Mad Love Music Festival and Dune Shack with our friends at SlackTide), and why community events are a huge part of the brewery’s DNA. Said Matt, "We just try to support the community that supports us."
We also got Matt to tell us about creating Kickstand Kölsch, a gluten-removed beer, and the response from GF drinkers. Spoiler alert: Lindsay has tried it and LOVED it. We also talk about the role of hospitality in the brewery experience and how Matt's team leads with this at every touchpoint.
Plus, Matt teases upcoming events—including their St. Paddy’s Day celebrations (on 3/8 and 3/9) with food, music, Irish step dancers, and special beer releases like We Love a Parade Hazy IPA and Irish Whisper Red Ale.
