Craft Brewed Sports

Another on-location recording this week, as the fellas head to Blank Slate Brewing in Cincinnati, OH to talk with the owner and head brewer Scott LaFollette. Scott L. breaks down all of the beers at Blank Slate and shows just how much thought and time goes into crafting an amazing beer. Later in the show, the fellas talk to Scott about making the jump from a home brewer to owning his own brewery, and why he chose to can his beers instead of bottle them. On the sports side, we hear stories about Gronk being Gronk, JJ Watt learning that he can't hang with the PGA pros, Ice Cube cashing in already on the Big 3 Championship game, Vegas Golden Knights bringing their A game on Twitter, breaking up a perfect game, and a minor league team's amazing trolling of Tim Tebow. All of that, plus some great calls from listeners!
