What do beer, leadership, and cutting-edge content strategy have in common? They all come together in this episode of The Crownsmen Show. Hosts Jerrod Downey, Roy Slack, and Rory Bamford sit down for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about innovation, content creation, and navigating the ever-changing landscape of industry. The episode kicks off with a review of Hazy Roy: A Hazy Boy, a New England IPA from Refined Fool Brewing out of Sarnia. With 6% ABV and a name that sticks, it’s the perfect icebreaker for a show that blends sharp insights with laid-back conversation.

The hosts reflect on recent travel to St. Louis, the energy around upcoming events like OTC and CIM, and the rise of short-form content that’s delivering massive results. Lumon racked up over 15,000 views with 45% engagement in just 8 days, while STRYDE from PDAC has passed 22,000 views. They explore how going from zero to one—creating something that didn’t exist—is the real innovation, and how following the customer can lead to unexpected growth through partnerships, production, and new media formats.

They also challenge mainstream leadership advice with a mix of personal stories, business philosophy, and a few controversial takes. From empathy and DEI to lessons from John Wooden and Elon Musk, the conversation stays grounded in one goal: helping people and companies grow with purpose. Watch the full episode now and see what happens when real experience meets real talk.
