With Howard Blues making an "Irish goodbye" to nurse a fever, the rest of the crew kicks into high gear for a marathon session of Beer, Blues, and BS! From the "ocean spray" saltiness of Talisker 10-Year Scotch to a deep dive into the Bismarck Burger Slam, this episode is a feast for the senses. We’re breaking down the best (and most "basic") burger entries in town, debating whether cilantro actually tastes like soap, and mourning the loss of a bison burger because the restaurant was literally empty.

Plus, we head to the desert for a Las Vegas travel guide: learn how to dodge those $50 resort fees, where to find the best all-you-can-eat lobster, and why you should never pass up "dangerous" 8.5% ABV guava cider.

From the "Living Embodiment of Charlie Brown" to a quest to "beat the Google," Episode 248 is a wild ride through sickness, scotch, and Sci-Fi mishaps!

The crew is battling the "crud" this week, with Howard Blues powering through a fever and Rudeboy Kyle recovering with a strategic mix of electrolytes and Sam’s Club bourbon. Meanwhile, Brother Niko breaks down the frustrating saga of a misspelled Star Trek model, and Mark Kidder gives us the cold, hard truth about shipped frozen deep-dish pizza.

Whether you're here for the 4.1-rated Straw Gator, the heated debate over Chicago’s best pizza (Lou Malnati’s vs. Giordano's), or just want to hear the team plead with the world to wash their hands—this episode has it all.

On Tap this Episode:

• LCL Geek: Rare Candy (Elm Creek) & Straw Gator (Aida)
• Brother Niko: Kraenmore 12-Year Scotch

Episode 247 brings the heat—and the cold! While the host might be "very much drunk" by the end, we’ve got a massive show filled with breaking news, simulator gameplay, and the long-awaited origin story of Howard’s Hannah Montana incident.

In this episode, we tackle some heavy-hitting headlines:

• The Menards Lawsuit: We break down the $4.25 million settlement over those famous 11% rebates. Is it a discount or a deceptive practice?

• The "Baldness" Ruling: A British court has ruled that calling a man "bald" can be sexual harassment. Howard and Mark discuss what this means for their own workplace banter.

• Snow Plow Simulator Access: Mark Kidder gets exclusive developer access to a new simulator!

The Main Event: Howard finally spills the beans on the "Hannah Montana Story." It’s a wild tale involving a stressful portfolio review, being falsely labeled a racist at UND, and a post-exam drinking session that led to a very unexpected TV binge. This leads to a deep dive into:

• The pressure of graduating in four years.

• Why most of us took much longer to finish our degrees.

• The "utility" of bachelor’s degrees in careers that have nothing to do with them.

Plus, we drink a beverage that is a bad idea for several reasons!

Episode 246 is here, and the Triple B crew is trading simple cans for high-end mixology—with a side of major controversy!

In this episode, we dive into the industry-shaking news of a title being stripped of its Game of the Year awards over the use of generative AI. We break down the ethics of AI in gaming, its massive environmental footprint, and whether "placeholder" content is killing human artistry.

Highlights from the show:

• The Slushie Revolution: Doc puts a new Ninja machine to the test with a "boozy slush" Riesling.
• Masterclass Mixology: JS crafts a top-shelf Manhattan and a Gin Ricky, including a mid-show rescue mission to save a bitter flavor profile.
• The "White Mocha" Disaster: Mark and Howard suffer through a stout that smells like "rancid summer candy."
• The Fighting Sioux Battle: We discuss the bold move by a local man to trademark a legendary nickname and the legal firestorm following it.
• Pirate Degrees: Is it actually possible to get an MIT-certified pirate qualification?

Plus, we talk about stolen police car chases, the final flavor in the Mushroom Jerky saga, and JS’s genius hack for "test-driving" expensive hunting knives before you buy.

Happy New Year! The Triple B crew is back and already "blitzed" for the first show of 2026!

This episode kicks off with a spirited round of What's On Tap featuring gifted drinks, including a fascinating comparison between a New Glarus Spotted Cow and a clone brewed by LCL Geek! Plus, Rudeboy Kyle is sampling a fine Widow Jane bourbon, and Mark Kidder is taking one for the team with a potentially "dangerous" lemon soju.

The conversation quickly turns futuristic and contentious as we dive into Disney’s $1 Billion agreement with OpenAI, discussing the ramifications for actors and artists, and predicting the next SAG strike.

We break down the surprisingly awesome Street Fighter Movie Trailer (ft. Roman Reigns and 50 Cent!), check in on the marathon that is One Piece Season 1, Episode 1,155, and get the details on the new Total War: Warhammer 40k RTS game reveal.

Also featured:

• JS Gunslinger breaks his new Code 118 Slimline Wallet immediately.
• LCL Geek shares a microwave malfunction story.
• The hunt for the perfect New Year's Resolution (spoiler: it's not the gym).

Stick around for the Doc's insightful final thoughts and the always-questionable AI-Generated Outro!

🚨 Welcome to Episode 243! 🚨

The crew is back in action and ready for a chaotic round of drinks and shocking stories!

In "What's On Tap," Doc praises an Imperial Red Raspberry Cider that hits all the right notes. Mark Kidder risks his palate on a Strawberry Double Bock and has a surprisingly positive reaction, while JS declares his current drink one of the best beers ever made. Finally, Howard struggles through a mystery Monster-branded drink from JS that he rates very low, proving JS's long-term payback is complete!

But the real headlines are the stories and updates:

• The Firing Incident: Howard recounts the bizarre event at his son's after-school care involving the “67” meme?
• Howard vs Sword Story: Howard finally tells the true tale of how he was once stabbed with a sword!
• The Snowblower Saga: Get the latest, hilariously frustrating update on why Howard is still manually shoveling.

Plus, we talk about the excitement of Mark Kidder buying new Triple B merch, JS's successful garage cleanup, and we challenge listeners to find the Ark of the Covenant hidden in a recent episode thumbnail!

Episode 242 is here, and the debates are as spirited as the drinks!

The episode kicks off with accusations flying as Howard Blues accuses Mark Kidder of cheating on the Star Trek vs. Star Wars poll! Mark Kidder dismisses the idea, demanding they stop talking about political-style interference.

In "What's on Tap," we taste a range of beverages: JS unveils a special "Villain" Old-Fashioned using a clearance liquor he scored. Mark Kidder risks a Tequila Paloma that gives him "chills up my spine." And Howard Blues bravely does a blind taste test of a mystery, year-old gift wrapped by JS, with hilarious results!

Plus, we cover:

• Mark Kidder’s Massive Purchase: A deep dive into the awesome details of the LEGO Star Trek Enterprise set, complete with exclusive add-ons.
• Credit Card Debate: JS lectures on why he’s succeeded in avoiding credit cards entirely, arguing that debit cards offer the same protection.
• Geek Collabs: We check out the brand-new Dungeons & Dragons x Dragon's Milk collaboration beer set!

Join us for the full discussion, and tune in next week for the story of the time Howard was stabbed with a sword!
