Summary

Comedian Reginald D Hunter has finished the work on his dream pub, ‘The Brando’. With him being an American who has lived on these shores longer than in the US, we now settle in to dig into his opinion of the Brits loving beans and the Britishness of the question “what’s your best beverage experience?”

This is the 2nd part of our chat with Reginald. You can listen to this episode on its own if you like - it'll make sense - but we’d recommend listening to the first episode to get the full experience. In the first part of our chats our guests build their pub.

Want to share anything with The Moon Under Water? Well it can feature on our weekly Pub Notice Boards. Just email [email protected] to get in touch.

And do leave the show a review on your podcast platform of choice. It really helps the pub and will take just a couple of seconds.

1:28.6	They have been to the moonshine by.
