Show Notes
Obviously this is a wide ranging subject that will pop up regularly but we thought we would give it its first solo gig. This episode introduces the basics of bottle closures. Particularly the progression from cork to screw-cap. Bags and cans are mentioned but will have their own little outing soon. Is a cork just cork? What is the connection with heart valves? We also answer the burning questions of who taught Joe how to fence and can he cook shortbread and why is Eddie the Head part of the conversation?
