Folk Hero Brewery Grand Opening, :Projekt
13 Kegs Later Some breweries start with investors and a marketing plan. Folk Hero started with Zach Hooper, a Texan with a handful of friends. In his own words, he also spent years going back and forth with about 500 Slovenian agencies and ministries. On Saturday, 17 October, it finally poured. The grand opening took…

Za odrom, Špilej ep.56
Another podcast I did back in 2023 with Matic Munc about music, photography and the (back)stage. “Za odrom” – behind the stage. Funny. It’s in Slovene, hope you enjoy it. “V Stožicah si želi delat vsak fotograf, dokler prvič ne dela tam.” Translated to: “Every photographer wants to shoot in (Arena) Stožice. Until the first…

Zagret za tek, Marko Alpner
In April 2023, I was a guest on Zagret za tek, Marko Roblek‘s running podcast. We were supposed to talk about running. We did – for the better part of two hours – but somewhere in there we also covered concert photography, coffee, whisky, and Lego. Roblek’s intro for the episode set the bar embarrassingly…

S02E02 – Anything But Therapy
Tilting at windmills, as the idiom from Don Quixote goes. My internal compass and my urge to have an opinion about the countless AI-generated posters are having an overheating issue. I just think this episode will be the cooling solution?

San Sebastián Marathon, personal best
Personal best – 2:45:20 officially, despite moderate to strong winds. Happy with the result, and I also beat my father’s PB. Stars aligned.

S02E01 – Anything But Therapy
I knew the first week in the job would be exciting and a challenge, but I’ll admit – I do feel a bit out of shape and a bit naked here. New faces, many names, trying to pay attention to every detail, remembering, taking notes, shadowing and participating in project meetings…

S01E24 – Anything But Therapy
I missed it. I missed the band, the crew, the fans, the energy. The whole night delivered. Despite going on stage a minute after midnight, there was no lack of energy, just love and some proper rock and roll. With an occasional double kick by Boštjan setting the stage for the following days.

S01E23 – Anything But Therapy
Less than two weeks until starting new job, two festivals this weekend and Pogi Challenge in the mix. Looking forward to all four TBH, and trying to charge my batteries, literally and figuratively at the same time.

S01E22 – Anything But Therapy
You know you’re getting old when you prioritize mowing grass before finishing up the newsletter episode on a Monday evening… Thirty-five soon; time flies. Besides finding excuses, I’m at least ageing consistently.

The Three-Car Garage
A ride in a Lancia Stratos replica raised the question every car guy avoids: three cars, no constraints. Here’s my garage – in three levels of denial.

The Story of ALPI Štručka
Or how one late order became a legend. Three tacos. Should’ve been four. It all started innocently enough – an eHrana order. Taco Zvani Zajebani, 3 pieces. Excellent. But one bite in, two things were clear: one, I’d be ordering these a lot. Two – there should be four in the box. That’s how I…
