In this episode of Brewstilled I’ll be recapping Apple TV’s Smoke episodes 1&2. Apple TV’s Smoke is a complex crime drama in where a troubled Detective and a mysterious Arson Investigator work together to solve a complex arson mystery. This is also a show about how people feel confined in their own lives and the solutions they find when they’re in such a situation. Apple TV’s Smoke gives us not only an excellent crime drama, but a showcase of human behavior. I’ll be discussing episodes 1&2 along with the series going forward. A West Coast IPA from Lucky Luke Brewing is on tap for the beer pairing.

In this edition of Brewstilled, I’ll be discussing NFL storylines that I have been contemplating in the month of June. These storylines are for the House of the Lombardi teams and how they could impact the 2025 NFL season. For the Dallas Cowboys, is Brian Schottenheimer the right coach for them? For the Detroit Lions, how will Dan Campbell navigate a post Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn season? Can Detroit also make it back to the NFC title game and even beyond? Is Liam Coen the right coach for Trevor Lawrence? For the Ravens, what’s next for them? I’ll discuss this and more here on Brewstilled as the NFL approaches its dead period. A Pilsner from Jackrabbit Brewing is on tap for the beer pairing.

In this episode of Brewstilled, I’m recapping HBO’s Hacks Season 4 episodes 7&8. For episodes 7&8 we got a preview of what could come for the season finale and how all the story arcs might end. Episodes 7&8 showed what seems to be a temporary state of peace with Deborah and Ava as they each confront looming life transitions. We also saw more from Jimmy and Kaylas story arc as they too are also facing their own potential transitions.
