Seen Through A GlassAuthor: Lew Bryson
Seen Through A Glass is mostly about drinks and food in central Pennsylvania, hosted by long-time drinks writer Lew Bryson. There are shows about particular products -- maple syrup, soft-serve ice cream, whiskey -- or profiles of individual towns, like Lock Haven, Carlisle, or Altoona. We also talk about life in central Pennsylvania, and what you can find there: covered bridges, excursion railroads, state parks, anything interesting we can find between Williamsport, Clarion, Johnstown, and Harrisburg (and occasionally elsewhere, when I travel). We do interviews, visits and descriptions, and theres always What Im Drinking Today; might be whiskey, might be beer, might be coffee. Grab a slice and a glass and join us!Seen Through A Glass accepts NO money from the businesses and people I talk to. If that ever changes, Ill let you know.

Barrels in Snyder County; Season 3, Episode 89
Episode 98
Thursday, 10 September, 2026
They're making barrels in Snyder County! I think I told you this episode would be about some fun stuff we did and places we went in Philly and Rhode Island when we were celebrating our son Thomas's marriage to our new daughter-in-law, Shade Adekunle. You're probably still going to get some of that next episode, but after I posted up last episode, I got an email from US Barrel Cooperage in Snyder County. They were responding to a request for an interview, and it came together quickly. I toured their stave mill and cooperage, and we had a chat with partner Dennis DeLong and manager George Sauder about how and why this all happened in a very rural part of the state, and what exactly they do. Great stuff. I've also got some historical stuff about barrels, and a visit to Vinnie's in Middleburg, where Dave and I met our match with two huge sandwiches. What else? One last reminder about the upcoming Another World Music Festival -- it's this weekend! -- and what's really the last book update for a while. I've got a reminder: the Kinzua Skywalk is open for two months only! Now's the time to go leaf-peeping. Well...not quite now, the leaves haven't turned yet. But it's still an awesome view. I've also got an extensive teaser about the next episode, because it's about Bullfrog Brewery and their 30th anniversary, which they're celebrating in Williamsport on September 19th; and I hope to see you there! What I'm Drinking Today is 2SP Rum Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stout, because of course I'm having a barrel-aged beer, and the guy who brewed this one is a genius. A word from our sponsor, DelGrosso Foods, features Joe Joe's Sloppy Joe sauce, and I'll let you in on a secret thing I do with it. Next episode is going to be an interview with Bullfrog Brewery co-owner Steve Koch, and some of those places we went in Philly and Rhode Island. See you in two weeks! Until then?
