Braden Social Partners with WingFest at Tussey Mountain

Braden Social LLC has announced a partnership with WingFest at Tussey Mountain, bringing with it Braden’s industry knowledge and connections, including a network of Braden’s Pub to help promote the area’s premier outdoor festival.

“For 20 years, WingFest at Tussey Mountain has been drawing hungry, happy crowds to the slopes on Thursdays in the summertime. Thousands come for the competition, the camaraderie and the entertainment, as up to 30 local restaurants and 14 top local and national bands participate each season. This event has evolved over time into its current state as a competition decided by the people’s vote — each paid guest through the gate receives one vote ticket which can be used to select your favorite wing vendor of the night.”

The Pub on WTAJ

Eric Braden Zimmett had a chance to sit down with Peyton Kennedy of WTAJ and wearecentralpa.com at Saints Coffee Shop, as the two discussed Braden Social’s work in the State College Food & Beverage Industry with Facebook Groups State College Eats –now at 2,000 members in less than six months — and its sister group State College Drinks.

“One of the things that draws me to this industry is all the stories and what goes on behind the scenes,” said Zimmett. “There’s so many stories to tell, especially now.”

The Pub Podcast, which aired its first episode on St. Patricks Day, will be one way Eric and Braden Social Media hopes to tell those stories.

“To sit down and be able to have a drink with a guest and have a very casual conversation where those stories come out, that’s my goal with it,” said Zimmett. “To have an unedited, just kind of raw, pub-style conversation.”

The Pub Podcast is now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Anchor. Find the original article and TV segment at https://www.wearecentralpa.com/news/local-news/the-pub-podcast-features-food-beverage-businesses-in-happy-valley/
