Porch Beers issue 4.5 - August 2022
"If you're a new reader lured in by the intoxicating allure of Jamie Oliver history, be aware that there will be plenty of curse words after this page. Like, all of them. Also hope you don't have a problem that you just gave money to a trans guy. I fully assure you that your money went to fund the trans agenda, which is mostly Mountain Goats tickets and button up shirts on my end of things."
Issue #4.5 is black and white photo copied and 5.5 X 8.5. It's 44 pages total.
Elliott Stewart spent most of his life in Huntington, WV and surrounding areas, minus a few hiatuses. Elliott has been making zines since he was thirteen. These days, his writing is slice of life storytelling through a critical, personal-is-political lens. He's especially fascinated by the intersection of people's personal experiences with pop culture and "low brow" entertainment. Some of his influences include Harvey Pekar, John Hodgman, Hanif Abdurraqib, and Nick Hornby. He loves highlighting the Mountain State and Huntington in particular in his writing, from colloquialisms and a love of hot dogs to larger values like community and DIY.
