#retrogaming #ps4 #xboxone Before we get to the big episode 500, let's take a look back at where it all began. Back in 2013, podcasting was still just crawling out of its primordial ooze. And for some reason, we decided to dive right into it. We soon discovered that a) podcasting is hard and b) we loved talking passionately about the things we care about. This is the start of an adventure that would lead to countless beers reviewed, conversations had, and bonds cemented. This episode is NOT good. In fact, it's packed with stutters, dead air, boring banter, and two guys in waaaay over their heads. But it was the start. Cheers to new beginnings and the fact that we've gotten at least marginally better at this thing.

#ufcfreedom250 #tupac #kanyewest Topics of the Week: - Before UFC Freedom 250, we discussed why the fanbase this MMA monolith has cultivated is starting to turn on Dana and the company at large. - Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, is touring Tampa and Senator Rick Scott is trying to get the whole shebang canceled. - Prolific Japanese game studio, RGG, is continuing to unveil its next big project, Stranger Than Heaven --- a game set in the early to mid 20th century. And apparently features a digitally resurrected Tupac Shakur. We talk the ethics of this move (or lack thereof). - Cheers of the Week: Gen Z filmmakers & Vince Staples with new album, Crybaby BotW: Duvel Tripel-Hop Belgian-Style IPA

#godofwarlaufey #zacksnyder #orlandomagic Topics Of The Week - Orlando Magic score a new head coach - PlayStation State of Play 2026 - Trailer Trash: Onslaught - Escape From New York is being remade by Zack Snyder - Cheers Of The Week: Jalen Brunson & the New York Knicks BOTW: Maine Beer Company Lunch IPA

#themandalorianandgrogu #callofduty #steamdeck Topics: - The Mandalorian And Grogu made lots of money, but failed to be the blockbuster that Star Wars needs --- falling to smaller budget, indie horror movies. - Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 was just announced with an action-packed trailer. As two former COD fans, we talk about the differences that may make this next entry worth a look. - Speaking of gaming, Valve's oft-praised Steam Deck handheld just got a huge price increase, but it's far from the only cost hikes we've seen in video games. Is one of our favorite hobbies being priced out for everyday people? - World-renowned game studio, Rockstar, saw its workers unionize after allegations of crunch. Cheers of the Week: - The New York Knicks & Ed O'brien's Blue Morpho Beer of the Week: - Playalinda Brewing Company O'rango Tango IPA

#drake #iceman #musicpodcast Topics Of The Show: - Drake drops three albums at once, some of which address the elephant in the room: his historic aura loss to Kendrick Lamar during the great rap battle of our time. Are any of them good? Is it too little too late? We dig in, digest, and discuss how we think Drake's first major comeback project shook out. - Does the UFC finally have some real competition? If you ask Netflix and MVP, plus millions of concurrent viewers, they just might. The recent fight event headlined by the likes of Francis Ngannou, Nate Diaz, and main event, Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano, seemed to be a big success on paper. But is it a real contender to pull eyes from the reigning champs of MMA? - We're already getting news about this year's Halloween Horror Nights...and Brewskis, news is good. We're officially getting a Sinners haunted house, a power play for Universal, leveraging Ryan Coogler's Oscar-winning crowd-pleaser. Cheers of the Week: The Boys & The Notorious B.I.G. Beer of the Week: Magnanimous Brewing Juice Lord Willing Quintuple IPA

#thestrokes #thepunisher #mcu As two of the biggest fans of The Strokes, the first couple of singles have got us scratching our heads. Is it just Julian and Co. experimenting in new directions? Or signs that this album will be an indulgent, vocoder-laden mess? We also get into Obe's first trip to his ethnic homeland of Puerto Rico, the Punisher's latest outing with the MCU, One Last Kill, Zach Cregger's upcoming Resident Evil movie, and a host of other bibs and bobs as we sip three P.R.-exclusive brews straight from the Caribbean. Cheers! Beer of the Week: Ocean Lab Brewing Co. SJU San Juan Lager, Maya West Puerto Rican Lager, & Condado West Coast Pilsner (collab with Tripping Animals Brewing).

#ye #thepunisher #metalgearsolid The artist formerly known as Kanye West was scheduled to headline a music festival in the U.K. right up until the U.K. banned him from the country. Is Ye's comeback tour premature? Will he ever win back fans turned off from years of bad favor? The Punisher is headed back to the small screen for a one-hour special — but does the character and Jon Bernthal deserve better? Finally, the long-rumored Metal Gear Solid movie adaptation of the legendary video game series seems to be revived with new directors attached. Can the helmers of the most recent Final Destination film pull off the giant mecha-sized task of bringing this idiosyncratic franchise to the big screen? BREW OF THE WEEK: Prairie Artisan Ales Albino Rhino White Stout
