We're back after a long hiatus, and we hit the ground running! The lads discuss Netflix's dating show Sexy Beasts, the show about personality, not looks (spoiler alert: NOT!). The Quig and T-Love were also intimidated by AA's fashion choice, and reacted as all haters do. And, of course, the tangents were there as well, and we touched upon Jeffrey Toobin, Loki (of Disney+ fame), and others. And most importantly, the lads reviewed Summer Pale Ale, a 5.2% ABV, 32 IBU pale ale by the fine folks from the Bronx Brewery. So, pick up a Summer Pale Ale, download our show, and enjoy! Cheers!!!

What's Going On Here?!?

Ep. 95 - Sexy Beasts, Summer Pale Ale

We conclude this year's WGOH?!? Best Tournament with Episode 94! After we determined the elite eight in episode 93, we broke down the brackets until we declared our winner, [insert movie winner here]! We also tried a new set of gross sounding beers, with Andrew sampling Floofer 2, an imperial milk stout with strawberry, cacao nibs, and peanuts (10% ABV, n/a IBU). A product of collaboration between Skygazer Brewing Company (North Haven) and Fat Orange Cat Brew Co. (East Hampton), both out of Connecticut. Sean and Tomo sampled Chocolate Covered Strawberry Milkshake IPA (7.2% ABV, 15 IBU), brewed with milk sugars, strawberry juice, and Madagascar vanilla beans. This selection is brewed by the Cape May Brewing Co., out of Cape May, New Jersey. Be brave, taste these beers, tell us what you think of them, and tell us what you think of our movie picks! Cheers!!!

Ep. 94 - The 2021 WGOH?!? Best Tournament (Part 2), highest grossing movies, gross beers

We're back, and it's that time of the year again! The 2021 WGOH?!? Best Tournament starts with Episode 93, and our subject this year is the world's top grossing movies of all time (adjusted for inflation). At the same time, we are reviewing drinks that sound like they might be gross (makes sense, right?). Andrew sampled Mississippi Mud, a 5% ABV, n/a IBU, black & tan (by Saranac Brewery), Sean sampled Digger, a 3.8% ABV, 20 IBU, Cherrystone clam and lemongrass pale ale (by Carton Brewing Company), and Tomo sampled Fortune's Fate, a 4.2% ABV, 8 IBU, oyster and lemon gose (by Forgotten Boardwalk Brewing). We went through our first round of brackets, opinions were had, and we are raring to do the next round of the Tournament. So, grab yourself some drinks, download the episode, and see if you agree with our picks! Cheers!

Ep. 93 - The 2021 WGOH?!? Best Tournament, highest grossing movies, gross beers

It's Episode 92, and we are going over the MCUs first TV release on Disney+, WandaVision. Listen to the lads break down this 9 episode show, go off on tangents (of course), but most importantly, hear their opinions on the three beers they sampled! Chaos Magic ensued, and they each picked their own beer: Andrew sampled Sumpin' Easy (a pale ale by Lagunitas Brewing Company, 5.7% ABV, 51 IBU), Sean sampled Low Earth Orbit (an oatmeal stout by the Alementary Brewing Company, 6.7% ABV, 19 IBU), and Tomo sampled Devil's Reach (a Belgian Golden Ale by the Cape May Brewing Company, 8.6% ABV, 25 IBU). Tune in, listen to nerd talk, buy the beers, sample them, and... cheers!!!

Ep. 92 - WandaVision recap, 3 new beers

We're back, and we present you with Episode 91! For this one, we are very excited to say that we have cartoonist, funny man, and upstanding human being, Andy Babbitz along for the ride! (You can find Andy's work, sometimes in the New Yorker, always in your heart, and on Instagram at @andybabbitz.) We break down what the "new normal" is these days, and we review Jinro 24 Soju (a 24% ABV neutral spirit) by Hitejinro Co., Ltd. out of Seoul, South Korea, and Hazy Little Thing (a 6.7% ABV and 35 IBU IPA) by the Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, out of Chico, California. Andy teaches us how to properly enjoy the soju (by way of a fresh lemon), and we basically show Andy just how much nonsense 3 guys from the East Coast can throw at a person during a podcast. So download the episode, get some Jinro 24 and Hazy Little Thing, and enjoy the shenanigans. Cheers!!!

Ep. 91 - The new normal, Jinro 24, Hazy Little Thing IPA

Happy 2021! For our first episode of the new year (Episode 90), we decided to talk about the MCU's new foray into TV, namely WandaVision (which you can watch on Disney+). Needless to say, our deep, philosophical, and highly expert analyses shed new light on not just WandaVision, but the inner workings of the universe itself. And in honor of WandaVision, the lads have concocted their own WandaVision-inspired cocktails to sample and evaluate during the podcast. Also, the Quig reveals a side of him that neither AA, nor T-Love expected. So, tune in, mix a cocktail, and enjoy kick off 2021 with this gem. Cheers!!!

Ep. 90 - WandaVision, Cocktails inspired by WandaVision

Episode 89 is our 2020 holiday special, and we call it the 12 Beers Of Christmas! As the title suggests, the lads sampled 4 beers each, and gave their reviews of each beer. At the same time, we asked our listeners to tell us their favorite Christmas movie, and we placed the first 12 movies we received into a bracket, and picked a winner, tournament style. The winning movie gets the fan who submitted it, a brand new WGOH?!? t-shirt! Are you guys ready for this beer and movie marathon? Then tune in, download, and enjoy! Happy holidays! Cheers!

Ep. 89 - The 12 Beers of Christmas

In Episode 88, the lads break down Hillbilly Elegy, Ron Howard's latest movie that is streaming on Netflix. We also honored the hillbilly culture with our choice of drinks. Andrew made a Kentucky Mule, with Wild Turkey 101 (50.5% ABV, out of Lawrenceburg, KY), Sean had Jim Beam Red Stag (32.5% ABV, out of Frankfort, KY), a black cherry liqueur with Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, and Tomo had Lost Lager (4.7%, 37 IBU), by Brew Dog Brewery, a brewery from Scotland that is also brewing in Columbus, OH. So, tune in, grab one or all of these drinks, and enjoy our highly suspect, er, um, we mean, expert analysis of this movie, its actors' performances, and our take on these adult beverages! Cheers!

It's Episode 87, and it's just in time for Election Day in the U.S.! The lads dive deep into the Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (spoiler alerts), disruptive theater and movie theater attendees, go off on crazy tangents, and indulge themselves with Elijah Craig Small Batch 1789, a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (47% ABV), by the Elijah Craig Distillery Co., out of Bardstown, Kentucky. Some of the lads might have even indulged a bit too much (we're not gonna name any names, but the initials of the person we're thinking of is T-Love). Anyway, tune in, especially if you are on a voting line that will take time, cause this is a 3 hour marathon! And, as always, cheers!!!

Ep. 84 - Beer, beer, & more beer! (Part I)

The lads go deep diving into the 2020 presidential candidates. DT and JB? No, not those, they get all the attention. We explored the unsung heroes of the presidential candidates: the maybes and the WTFs (we're looking at you, Kanye). And we had the one and only Anthony Colon (singer, actor, and socialite) to help us in this endeavor. We also reviewed Presidente Cerveza, a lovely 5% ABV pilsner out of the Dominican Republic (except it's brewed in ST. Louis, Missouri?!?). Well, "we" doesn't include The Quig. He got all monarchist on us, and he had King Gabrinus, a 10% ABV Belgian Trippel by Jersey Girl Brewing (Hackettstown, NJ). Bloody limey. Anyway, tune in, follow the nonsense and the tangents, and cheers!!!

Ep. 83 - 2020 Presidential candidates, Presidente Cerveza

We conclude our breakdown of VelociPastor in this latest installment, episode 82. The lads and NYC actor & filmmaker, Matt Provenza, give you their take on this viral hit, and give you their grades for the Blue Point Brewing Company's Summer Ale (4.5% ABV, 19 IBU). Tune in for the rest of the shenanigans, because if there is one thing we do right, it's shenanigans. Cheers!!!

It's Episode 81, and as promised, we are back with our review of VelociPastor! This low-budget, viral comedy-horror is chock full of greatness! In fact, there were so many great scenes and story lines, it took us almost two hours to break everything down, so we split VelociPastor into two parts. We also sample Blue Point Brewing Company's Summer Ale, a nice 4.5% ABV brew that will quench your thirst. And last but not least, we have special a guest, NYC actor and filmmaker Matt Provenza, who joins in on the fun of analyzing VelociPastor! So, tune in, watch VelociPastor, and enjoy the laughs and brew. Cheers!!!
