Host Brock Yordy has a full slate this week. First, we have a reminder on hearing safety. Then we go to this year’s National Drilling Association convention, and talk to Jeff Garby of Alucast. Last up, in this week’s feature segment, the host talks about the intersection of groundwater and beer. 

“Today, breweries are influencing the global population to understand that recycled water is the future and it’s a piece, because we need to be as much zero discharge as we possibly can,” Yordy says. “They’re doing this through revolutionary water recycling systems. It’s what we need. If we look in Colorado, Arizona or California right now, there are all breweries showing that we can use recycled water.”
