Beer Pressure The Podcast: No Homie Left Sober

So here’s the saga… Episode 136 hit us with some technical difficulties , so instead of leaving you hanging, we took it LIVE on Christmas Eve and made it work — Beer Pressure style. We’re officially calling it: Episode 135 3/8 (because math is hard and we refuse to accept reality 😌) Then — in true end-of-year chaos — we recorded again the Sunday after Christmas… …and the podcast gods said “nah.”...

This week, it’s just Ed and Luis — and they’re penalizing each other the only way they know how: with beer. 🍺 Each brought a brew the other despises, and, well… things got interesting fast.
