An episode has not been missed… but something’s feels off.

Ed’s been on-call. So the pod squad haven’t even seen each other since it started.
SO! No “Nothing Crazy” stories this week — just two homies catching up and realizing how much happens when life gets busy.

The guys dive into media, which somehow turns into a full-on Geeking Out with Zippy moment. 

AND THAT MOMENT… both fell in love with a beer.

Tune in to find out which brew stole our hearts and their score.

Here is what we cracked! 

🍺 3 Sons Brewing Co x Vault City Modern Sour Beer | Blackberry Maple Waffle Stacks | Fruited Sour | 6.5% ABV

🍺 Innis & Gunn | Caribbean Rum Cask Scottish Red Beer | Scottish Red Ale | 6.8% ABV

Evan Snow pulled up to the pod squad representing Zero Empty Spaces, Creative Zen, and Choose954.

We talked health, Evan’s personal health journey, and how perspective shifts when life forces you to slow down.

Of course, we talked beer… but we also dove deep into how Zero Empty Spaces, Creative Zen, and Choose954 started, what they’ve grown into, and what’s next for the movement.

This one felt like a full circle moment.

The Broward Stout Boys pulled up to the mic—Cam the Malt Mayor and Señor Aldo in the building—and things got wild fast.

We swapped stories from our most recent outings, took a nostalgic trip back to our first memory of Laser Wolf, and somehow found ourselves deep in an unexpectedly passionate, philosophical discussion about a can name.

Trust us… it turns into a full-on TED Talk you didn’t know you needed. Tune in.

Just Ed and Luis holding it down this episode. 

We kick things off recapping our weekend adventures, including how Friday night hit Luis so hard it took a full two days to recover. 

Somewhere between laughs and bad decisions, we almost convinced ourselves that a spontaneous, “nothing crazy” trip to Orlando for the Commission event was a good idea. 

Was it smart? Debatable. Was it entertaining? Absolutely.

Here is what we cracked! 

🍺 Equilibrium Brewery | Alfajores | Imperial Stout | 11% ABV

🍺 Invasive Species Brewing | Mango Pain Killer | Sour | 7% ABV

Alright, we’ll say it — we messed up 😅
This episode is us owning our recent publishing blunders, laughing through the chaos, and officially getting back on track.

Ed also takes us along on his recent trip to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷, complete with stories, vibes, and — most importantly — beers he brought back to share 🍺🔥

We’re back. We’re focused.

Good beers, good conversation, and the next chapter already in motion. Tap in.

After a few very real hiccups, Episode 136 is finally here — and we’re officially back for the new year. Welcome to 2026, Drinkalongers! 🥂✨

Ed and Luis catch up and talk resolutions, goals, and intentions for the year ahead — what we’re aiming for, what we’re leaving behind, and how we’re moving forward.

We also squeeze in a quick (and slightly judgmental 😅) chat about Stranger Things, because Luis still hasn’t finished the last episode…
LUIS. CATCH. UP. WITH. THE. WORLD. 📺👀

New year. Fresh energy. Same Beer Pressure chaos.
Let’s do this. 🍺🎙

Here is what we cracked! 

🍺 Orval | Trappist Ale | 6.9% ABV

🍺 Grimm | The Localist | Cream Ale | 5% ABV

🎧 Give in to the Beer Pressure

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.”💀 Device failure.💀 Recording vanished.💀 Thanos-snapped into the void.

So instead of going dark, we’re rolling with it and sharing our 12/24 live recording as this week’s episode. It’s real, it’s messy, it’s us — and it’s what the beer gods allowed. 🍺🙏

Jingle These Hops continues!

Just like the Three Wise Men bringing gifts, Ed, Luis, and our guest Quick the Poet come bearing bottles 7, 8, and 9 for this next holiday pilgrimage. 👑✨🍺

We were honored to welcome Quick — a powerhouse poet and performer whose voice has graced stages around the world. A true master of spoken word and storytelling. 🎤🔥

Together, we dove into:🎄 Household Christmas traditions
✍️ Quick’s life in poetry & storytelling
🍺 His growing love for craft beer

A king of the mic, two kings of the pint, and three bottles to guide the way — this one is a holiday journey you don’t want to miss.

Here is what we cracked! 

🍺 St Bernardus | Christmas Ale | 10% ABV

🍺 Harpoon Brewery | Winter Warmer | Holiday Ale | 6.8% ABV

Jingle These Hops Continues! 🎄**

The holiday spirit keeps flowing as Jingle These Hops rolls into its next chapter!
This week, Cam joins Luis and Ed to crack open bottles 4, 5, and 6 — 🎲🍻

We dive into holiday traditions, swap stories from Cam’s Thanksgiving, and of course… talk beer, drink beer, and then talk even more beer. ’Tis the season, after all.

A festive hang with good friends, good brews, and good vibes! 🎅🍺
