In this episode of The Colompton Beer Club Podcast, the crew covers a wide-ranging slate of sports, tech, and life topics, proving once again that nothing exists in a vacuum anymore.

The show opens with loose banter over wings, questionable sharing etiquette, flirtatious service, and an update on Dante's ongoing “Mormon adventure.”

From there, the conversation turns to the NFL Playoffs, where we revisit our Wildcard picks, preview the Divisional Round, and take stock of how strong the 2024 NFL Draft quarterback class already looks. We also dig into why the Chicago vs. Green Bay rivalry suddenly matters again and which preseason Super Bowl favorites are still standing.

Next, we tackle the NFL coaching carousel, reacting to the stunning resignation of Mike Tomlin and discussing whether John Harbaugh could realistically be headed to the New York Giants. This leads to a broader debate about job security, legacy, and whether one championship is worth gambling an entire career.

On the college side, we break down the College Football Championship matchup between Indiana and Miami, asking the question: Just how good is Indiana, really?

The episode then shifts gears into tech and culture. We unpack recent cellphone outages, what happens when “smart” systems fail all at once, and how dependent modern life has become on fragile infrastructure. That conversation naturally flows into reactions from CES 2026, including AI integrations, wearables, and smart home tech, separating genuinely useful innovation from gimmicks.

We close with a discussion on health and fitness, exploring why movement, nutrition, and sleep are the ultimate cheat codes, and how being 40 today looks nothing like it did a generation ago.

Final pours include a tasting of Tall Hat Fruit Punch IPA by 21st Amendment Brewery and Bud Light Lime by Budweiser, followed by rapid-fire takes and a proper send-off.

Same beers, same chaos. We’ll see you next round.
