We're Bobby and Dr., your hosts on an epic taste journey through Goose Island's Beware of the Dogs Pale Ale and Market Garden's Franklin Castle Punked and Spice Ale. We're not just tickling our tastebuds though - we'll take you on a tour of the beers' can designs, cost, and flavor profiles, even launching into a spirited debate over whether we can taste pumpkin in the pumpkin pale ale. And if you're wondering why we're sending packages to Germany or how we stumbled upon 100 episodes and 25,000 downloads, we've got some stories for you.

Then, as we kick back with our brews, we'll reminisce about the golden era of TV - the '80s and '90s. Remember 'Married With Children', 'Family Matters', and 'Family Ties'? We'll explore the shows that shaped our childhoods, and discuss how some of their content wouldn't fly today.

S4-E38, Ever wished you could enter a world where beer battles were a thing? Well, strap in because you're about to witness the great Battle of the Pumpkins as we pit two delicious pumpkin beers against each other. It's Block House Brewing Company's Pumpkin Ale vs Sam Adams' Jack-o, and it's going to be a taste explosion. You'll marvel at the notes of caramel, graham cracker, and whipped cream that make these brews bear an uncanny resemblance to pumpkin pie. You'll even find yourself toying with the idea of adding a rim of caramel, cinnamon sugar, and brown sugar to further enhance the flavor. 

We're shifting gears and stepping into the future with an in-depth discussion on the Rivian SUV, a high-tech electric vehicle that has us all impressed. We're talking everything from bird sounds to auto leveling - this car is straight out of a sci-fi movie. Stick around as we discuss potential uses for this beauty, including a creative idea of using it for drive-in movies with surround sound. We're also diving deep into unique beer recipes, including a beer cocktail with an alcoholic shot and a pumpkin beer bomb with a graham cracker crust. We bet you've never heard of anything like it. 

We're not just about beers and cars though, we like a good laugh too. Get ready to chuckle as we share funny stories, jokes, and even reveal the most embarrassing songs on our phones.
