Drinking and having fun with your inner circle of friends and family is a feeling unlike any other. We've all done it (some more than others haha) and we all understand the happiness it brings. There's nothing quite like having a good time with the people you trust and care about the most...no matter how ridiculous some of them might be.
In this episode we are introduced to a set of brothers who took those happy feelings and displayed them on an Instagram page through a barrage of live action memes. They called the account Friday Beers, specifically focusing on beer drinkers and the types of friends/feelings one might have when the party is just getting started towards the end of the week. What started as pure entertainment quickly grew into a movement, and in less than a year the Friday Beers account has skyrocketed to over a million followers. Tune in to hear what allowed them to grow so fast, the undertones of what makes this account special, why the glue of Friday Beers is the community, and what's next for everyone in the Friday Beers orbit.
