In this episode of Deep Dives & Light Laughs, we sit down with Matt Elder, founder of Untold Brewing, to talk about craft beer, community, and the journey from homebrewing in Seattle to opening one of the South Shore’s most beloved breweries.
Matt shares how his passion for brewing took shape, the inspiration behind Untold Brewing, and what it’s like running a growing business in Scituate and Plymouth. We discuss the creative process behind developing new beers, local collaborations (like the beloved Mad Love Music Festival and Dune Shack with our friends at SlackTide), and why community events are a huge part of the brewery’s DNA. Said Matt, "We just try to support the community that supports us."
We also got Matt to tell us about creating Kickstand Kölsch, a gluten-removed beer, and the response from GF drinkers. Spoiler alert: Lindsay has tried it and LOVED it. We also talk about the role of hospitality in the brewery experience and how Matt's team leads with this at every touchpoint.
Plus, Matt teases upcoming events—including their St. Paddy’s Day celebrations (on 3/8 and 3/9) with food, music, Irish step dancers, and special beer releases like We Love a Parade Hazy IPA and Irish Whisper Red Ale.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
