Beer Man Beer Podcast

This week we decide not to go to the Dead And Company show at CITI Field due to crazy high ticket prices. So, we decide to tailgate in Amy's Backyard. We pick beers at random from a "Grab Bag" cooler and decide which is Solid and Not Solid. We do a phone-in with Comedienne Sharon Simon (@sharonjsimon) about performing at 30 Mile Brewing Co. and Taste a beer from 30 Mile that she wanted us to try. Jonny tells his story about Mark Wahlberg's visit to Wahlburgers in Trumbull, CT and what it was like to almost meet Marky Mark. Plus, we discuss our most horrific grab bag stories. Our favorite Animated Films, Has Woody gone Brokeback??? We talk about songs we Would pick for a Dead and Co. set list, our favorite White Rappers and we talk to our biggest fan from Florida..Brandi!!! Fun Show, Good Times, Some Great Beer Man Beer & THE BEST ROAST BEEF SANDWICHES made by Amy!! #CANNONBALL
