Three Beers Later

Episode 83. Connor and Mark sat down this week to talk about the state of the podcast, and decided that they've been leaning too hard on guests to provide content. So...for the sake of 3BL...NO GUESTS. In this episode, we start with politics. Connor decides that he should read the Mueller report. But he won't. We decide that baseball should be allowed to police itself. Runza is incredible...

Episode 82...the one where we're not allowed to know what we're drinking. Also....Matty FreeBeer is here! In this episode, we grill Dr. Matty on his latest home brew exploit, a Russian Imperial Stout. We also ask him all of your medical questions. We did a Lincoln beer crawl. We discussed the demise of Blue Blood Brewing. Sweaty Janessa and Mario showed up. And we tried to figure out what...

Episode 81 with Chris Whitney. He's batting .667 on showing up when he's invited. And that's pretty good. In this episode, we draft local beers. We compare them to basketball players. Then we just talk basketball. Also....soccer, women's rights, handicap bathroom stalls, the SI Swimsuit issue, and our worst experiences with puking in public. All while drinking a trio of Champurrado...

Episode 80 is here. Fresh is here. We stayed true to our rules and drank a couple #OchoCrowlers. Also.............Mickey's Fine Malt Liquor duct taped to our hands. In this episode....I really don't remember. We talked about Endgame some more, but mostly through the lens of someone who's never watched a Marvel movie. We discussed Connor's willingness to avoid social outings. What e...

Episode 79 is here. April Simms came, and she let Matt tag along with her. And we all brought some ciders to the party. In this episode, we go deep into Avengers: Endgame. Really deep. As in...if you don't want to hear about Endgame, skip past the first 1:43:05. And maybe even some stuff after that. We then go straight into spoiling Game of Thrones. If you don't want that spoiled either, m...

This is Episode 78. We welcome back one of our OG guests, Michael Bruntz. Michael told us that he could never come on again because he's a dad now. But we convinced him that his kid isn't that important. In this episode, we discuss meal trains and the trials of being a new parent. We talk about car break-ins, and the manners of those who do that sort of thing. Connor learned how to mail a...

We first did it in December 2017. It was episode 14. Enough time has passed that we decided we should do it again. It's the Hot Ones challenge with the Hot Ones power ranker himself, Brett Baker. In this episode, we ate some hot wings. Some were hot. Some were really hot. Some were stupid hot. We also talked about our career experiences. We talked about our overconfidences. We ate bread. We dr...

For episode 76, we welcome back our music-loving friend Scott. He doesn't like IPAs. Or does he....?In this episode, Connor details his trip to Vegas. Spoiler alert: He got drunk and lost a lot of money. But he did meet Scotty McCreery, which leads us down a completely different rabbit hole. Scott remembers his days as a DJ. Mark apologizes for his days as a DJ. And Connor's pretty sure he...

Don't listen to what we say in the podcast. This is episode 75. Chris Whitney....did not show up. So this is episode is mostly just Connor and Mark. And then....DR. MATTY FREEBEER shows up (with a specimen cup)!!! In this episode, we discuss binging vs watching live. Connor tries to decide if The Beach Bum was a good movie. Strip clubs. Thicc water. Infected beers. And a surprise Sour IPA that...

It took us 73 episodes to find a Rico. Now, we've had two in consecutive weeks. Would you believe his actual name is Richard? Neither do we. In this episode, we explore a man who exclusively drinks IPAs. What makes him tick? Hint: it's hops. We make our predictions about Game of Thrones. Connor's are the most prescient. We discuss literature. Briefly. And we discover that Mark and Rico...

Episode 73. Tonight, we introduce Rico to craft beer. So, we brought a sampler. One IPA. One sour. One stout. One survivor (boop!) In this episode, we talk about Rico/America's weird obsession with Dr. Pimple Popper and other similar phenomenon. Also, throwing cheese at babies? The internet is a weird place. We spoil Captain Marvel. We listen to REO Speedwagon. We talk about roller coaster pra...

Episode 72 with Nick Maestas. You don't know Nick? He's the beautiful man who runs the beautiful taco truck Muchachos! But...don't try to talk to him about other taco trucks. He HATES other taco trucks. Speaking of beautiful people, have you heard of the show "Are You Hot?" from 2003? Do you ever wonder if YOU'RE hot? Do you want to know if Connor's girlfriend thinks he...

Episode 71 with Josh Peterson. He brought beers. We brought beers. If you do the math, that means we have lots of beers to drink tonight. In this episode, we started with boners. Then there was the documentary about abductions. Stibbs called in. After that...I don't really remember. Beer talk? Urban dictionary? There were some pee breaks. And we drank some beers from Iowa and some beers from t...

Episode 70 is here. We drank plenty of Pedialyte to recover, and then we invited a big beer guy (@BigGolfGuy) to come and drink some more. We continued a tradition with Joe Delp and talked about poop. Joe was very excited. We talked about what trends he expects to see out of the beer world in 2019 (hint: local. And maybe lagers). There was lots of golf discussion from the big golf guy. Then we tur...

Episode 69. The weather ruined some of the fun, keeping people away. But...that means more beer for us! Daine from Fridge Guys is here. He brought some awesome beers. Josh from BBB Printing is here. He brought some awesome shirts. And together, we did 69. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This is episode 68. It's nice enough. Nate Clouse is here. Turns out, he's a beer nerd! Who knew?! In this episode, we ended up talking a lot about beer. And beerfests. And babies and bettas and butterknuckles. We threw in some Sopranos, some video games, some parenting stuff. And we drank beers from Madhouse, Singlespeed, and Fair State (which is not an Iowa beer).  Advertising Inquiries:...

This is episode 67. Mike Sciandra is here. And he brought beers from Iowa to kick off our month of Iowa beers. Who knew Iowa could provide beers for an entire month? Not this guy... In this episode, we take an analytical dive into our beer ratings. Then we take some sort of dive into Fyre Festival. Wiping asses. Smelling underwear. And a deep philosophical debate into the merits of "Just Do It...

Episode 66. For real this time. A couple of guests from Omaha showed up. Everyone say hi to Lanny Holstein and his friend. This episode starts hot. Sex positions within the first ten minutes. Have you ever tried b-d? What about d-b? Also....metric vs standard, boobs, hitting coaches, football vs baseball, and beers from from Clown Shoes, Knee Deep, Sierra Nevada and Empyrean.  Advertising Inquirie...

Episode 65 with Mike Schaefer. He's drinking this time. Well....kind of. He's drinking Coors Banquet. In this episode, Connor and Mike get geeky about baseball. Not until after Connor freaks out about Creighton blowing the game against Marquette. Mike tells us about his experiences with topless girls in Cancun and the drugs he didn't take in New Mexico. There's also an idea to expa...

Episode 64. The one sponsored by Renegade Brewing. Can you get Renegade in Nebraska? Not anymore! Is it really damned delicious? You bet it is! Our Executive Producer Shane (@Weeman402) came by. And then @MikeSciandra came by. And then @nilly21 came by. It was a party. Everyone wants some of Renegade's delicious beers! We talked about Joan Callamezzo. We talked about Kanye. We talked about sma...

What do you do when two conflicting rules collide? You buy a big beer, you buy a little beer, and you throw everything else out the window. In this episode, we go to barbecue school with @DelltheDude. We learn what a "Bacon Explosion" is (eventually). More debates about KC BBQ, but it's all trumped by the grub at Chester's Grocery near Ft. Benning. Then...we follow little Jimmy to...

Episode 62 is coming on your speakers. Chris Basnett is here, and he has some qualms about last week's episode. In this episode, Chris talks about his dog's pancreatitis. And the time he almost died. And flight simulators. And the seven wonders of the world. All while drinking dark beers from Avery Brewing, Cosmic Eye and Empyrean. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privac...

Dear every brewery, Do you want to be cool? Then be like Renegade Brewing. Give us some beers to drink and talk about. Sincerely, 3BL In episode 61, we bring in Josh Peterson from the Omaha radio scene. As you might expect from a radio guy, he has some things to say. We talk about green text people vs blue text people. We talk about Connor's disturbing use of LMAO in tweets. We take a LONG tim...

Episode 60 with Jack Mitchell and half of the beers provided to us by Denver's Renegade Brewing. Look at the picture. They're very pretty. In this episode, we yell about pizza (again). We break the red-clad rules. Jack raps with Run DMC, which fulfills today's part of the "26 Days of Jack". We all agree that the "pay-it-forward" chains at Starbucks are stupid. But Axe B...

It finally happened. Connor's gone. Connor's replacement backed out. So...Jake Sorensen makes his debut appearance on this podcast. We swore it wouldn't happen, but here we are. Also...Lanny Holstein! In this episode, Lanny tries to school us about the English language. And logical fallacies. Turns out, he works closely with a 'flat-earther.' We talk about wine, concerts, mouth...
