The One Beer In Podcast

OK, so it looks like ol' Elon Musk decided to walk back that whole Twitter takeover --- BUT, would it be a good thing if the incredibly influential billionaire sat on the board? Also, we get into Donald Glover AKA Childish Gambino interviewing himself for Interview magazine and sharing some interesting opinions on how his work stacks up to Radiohead's stone-cold classic, OK Computer. Finally, we a...

Look…we get it. You’re tired of op-eds about Will Smith’s slap-scapade at this year’s Oscars. But if you listen to just one more take, make it ours. We’ve brought beers. PLUS, tune in for an early impression on PlayStation’s attempt to take on the much-celebrated Xbox Game Pass. *Beer of the Week* Tactical Brewing Beware the Black Spot Imperial Black Lager

Hogwarts Legacy, a new game set in the world of Harry Potter, is mired in controversy. Though the Wizarding World is still a beloved franchise, it's struggling to separate itself from its creator, JK Rowling. The supposedly "cancelled" multi-millionaire author has made what many consider transphobic remarks, making her persona non grata. BUT Rowling has remarkably little to do with Hogwarts Legacy...

You wouldn't download a CAR. But with Russia essentially making online piracy legal, you may have to swap out the rum for vodka. Then, it's time for a first look at the live-action Ms. Marvel show. Did the MCU mess up the comic newcomer's stretchy powers? *Beer of the Week* Oxbow Brewing Seaworthy India Pale Lager

Joining for the first time, we were happy to welcome Steve, Star Wars/craft beer aficionado and friend of the show to talk such important things as The Batman, the brand-new Obi-Wan Kenobi trailer, and the viral door vs. wheel debate. (THERE ARE DEFINITELY MORE DOORS THAN WHEELS -Obesius) Cheers! *Beers of the Week* Jester King Colour Five 2018 Tactical Brewing Keeping It Crispy

We have learned nothing from the "freedom fries" movement. Yet again, we're seeing a performative movement to rename or destroy drinks/products/foods etc. to...somehow...support Ukraine's defense against Russian invasion. Learn why that does nothing but make you feel like you've done something (all while doing absolutely nothing). Then, AMC is bumping up prices for their blockbusters. Is it a smar...

Ye has become the podcast gift that just keeps giving. With a tumultuous first listen of Donda 2, will the follow-up to Donda sell the $200 Stem Player? Or is it destined to dwindle with illegal downloads? But beyond Ye, we also get into a major debate: should college basketball (and potentially other sports) do away with the postgame handshake? After instances of fights on the rise, is it worth t...

With Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) in the news, you know we had to provide some commentary. As longtime fans of the music and recent critic of the man, we've got a whole lot of thoughts. Is Ye in the right, being a creep, or just playing the tabloids and Ye Stans like a fiddle? Then, we continue our long-running series, Trailer Trash, this time reviewing Doctor Strange in the Multiv...

With the panini slowly crawling to a hopeful halt, the boys talk work-from-home perks and why the return to office may be a non-starter for some. Also, it's awards season, so that means another round of Oscar Buzzed—your favorite round up of Academy Awards contenders (hosted by two tipsy film nerds). Cheers! *Beer of the Week* Rogue Brewing Batsquatch Hazy IPA

Oh, our poor friend, Boba Fett... how they've done thee. First, it was an embarrassing fall into the Sarlacc pit. Now, a show that makes you out to be a fumbling, warm-hearted hero. After The Book of Boba Fett talk, the boys cover Sony buying Bungie, makers of Destiny (and a little ditty called "Halo"). Then, it's on Washington's NFL team renaming to...the Commanders? Why does it suck, why was it...

OK, so we know full well that talking about Joe Rogan is a social landmine...but here we go ah-steppin'. With his recent smooth brain comments around race with guest Jordan Peterson, we had to chime in on the UFC commentator's powerful cult of personality, and its pitfalls. Also, with a special call in from Ian Jacobson, resident baseball human encyclopedia, we talk whether former slugger Barry Bo...

#Xbox #CallofDuty #CraftBeer Is Microsoft making a run at a gaming Monopoly? With their recent $68 billion purchase of video game monolith, Activision Blizzard, maybe. What does this mean for blockbuster games like Call of Duty, Overwatch and more that will soon be under Xbox's neon green glow? The brew dudes talk potential exclusivity, Game Pass possibilities and more. *Beer of the Week* Redlight...

AT LONG LAST THE BREW BOYS RETURN. Back with a new format, we update on what's been up since 2022 rolled in, then jump into our Cheers of the Week. For Obe, it's...Matrix Resurrections. Yes, we know that's controversial, but tune in to hear the man out. Then, Marco toasts the recently released Bonnaroo 2022 lineup---and why the internet seems underwhelmed. Cheers to a new year of new brews, hot ta...

Cowboy Bebop is a treasured jewel of anime perfection--making it the perfect target for a live-action Netflix remake doomed to fail. But was it really bad enough to cancel just weeks after release? Or did Netflix not give it a fair shake? Also, Spider-Man No Way Home is doing absolute numbers, as only an MCU movie starring old web head could do. But is this a sign that the movies are back? Or is t...

There's a ton of reasons to look forward to Matrix Resurrections---but also some reasons to be worried. Will the latest from Lana Wachowski just add up to an overly self-referential re-bake of the original series? Or will we be left saying, "Whoa?" Then, will recent anti-scalper laws make a dent in the resell hell of PS5s, Xbox Series Xs and more? Moreover, is there hope for us all when our lawmak...

With friend of the show, Juan Burgos, sandwiched between your favorite brew boys, this episode covers the pitfalls of pay-to-win online multiplayer games, what makes for a great open-world game, how hip hop ages its founders out, and more. All that, plus a second brew from fan-favorite Allagash Brewing Company. Cheers! Beer of the Week: Allagash Brewing Company River Trip Belgian-style session ale

Between a fresh new trailer for Spider-Man No Way Home to the news that Mel Gibson is set to direct the fifth (final?) installment of Lethal Weapon, there's a ton of film news to reel in. Is the world ready to welcome back the aged action star and documented antisemite/racist? That fall from grace was far, but will it keep people from the box office in the 2020s? The brew boys also toast to the du...

Grab a 100% pumpkin-free IPA and get into the great YouTube like/dislike ratio debate. With the massive platform making moved to hide dislikes from viewers, do the pros outweigh the cons? Plus, with the Astroworld tragedy continuing to make headlines as lawsuits begin to be filed, one question needs to be asked: Who is at fault? As an artist and performer, Marco weighs in on Travis Scott's respons...

With Halloween in the rearview, the boys get into the troubles of bartending and a round of nerdy trailer trash. First, will Morbius be another win for Sony's budding Spider-man cinematic universe? Then, will The Book of Boba Fett do the infamous, beloved bounty hunter justice? Tune in with a brew in hand and let us know what you think. *Beer of the Week* Ormond Beach Brewing Hefeweizen 0:00:00 Be...

With Halloween just hours away, the brew ghouls talk everything from night terrors to local haunts and Mike Flanagan's fantastic horror shows (Haunting of Hill House, Haunting of Bly Manor, and Midnight Mass) on Netflix. Cheers to a Happy Halloween, Brewski! *Beer of the Week* Allagash White Belgian-Style Wheat 0:00:00 Beer Intro 0:03:58 Desert-Island Beer 0:10:20 Netflix Doubles Down On Horror 0:...

Marco took on Knotfest 2021, his first metal show, and comes back with some surprising takes. Then, the boys talk The Batman trailer. Tarantino is reported to no be ruling out Kill Bill Vol. 3 as his final film. And the John Wick prequel, The Continental, just cast Mel Gibson--but are we ready to watch the aging actor after multiple racist rants? Cheers it up with the brews and news you can use. *...

With two class-style kolsch beers in hand, the brew boys tackle Battlefield 2042 vs Call of Duty Vanguard, a review of Squid Game, and UFC's unfortunate explosion of scumbag activities from some of its brightest stars. Cheers!

First off, the boys have to give it up for the big curtain call for one of the greatest games of all time: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Closing out the incredible fighter roster is Sora from the Kingdom Hearts series -- a welcomed surprise considering that KH's connection to Disney (and all the intellectual property nightmares that come with it). Then, are the Spotify algorithm gods spot-on or less...

How janky is IGN's Best Video Game of All Time bracket? Is the Super Mario Bros movie casting a 1-up yours to Italians? Most importantly, is this New England IPA any good? Tune in. Drink up. And, as always, have a good time on this latest episode of The One Beer In Podcast. Cheer! *Beer of the Week* Collective Arts Brewing Life in the Clouds NEIPA

It's time to step upon the scales of public judgement and see where the numbers lie: the great One Beer In weight loss challenge is officially over. See where the boys slimmed and where they slipped, as well as some insight to their weight loss journeys. Then, it's on the talking self-driving cars' safety, a uniquely American disregard for public safety, and Marco's almost primal distaste for reti...
