  • FNBB 48 - Don't Let COVID Bite You In The Ass On The Way Out The Door

    On this week's episode we're talking about how COVID kicked the McShane house in the ass this week. Not fun. But it sounds like many people have been in the same boat.

    No COVID for 22 months and then suddenly. But luckily our bush with it came post-vaccine and post-booster. I am thankful for that.

    We hope you all stay safe and well out there.

    Till next week - LLM

  • FNBB 47 - Are We All Just Living In The Matrix?

    In the first FNBB of the New Year, we're going deep.

    I'm asking if the ego is keeping us living in the Matrix and if we take the red pill we are suddenly able to hear our intuition and see all the possibilities available to us.

    Yeah, like I said....Deep.

    It's Dry January for me to combat the sogginess I felt at the end of the holiday season, so bear with me. Doing my best!

    :)

  • FNBB 45 - Not A Creature Was Stirring, Not Even A Mouse

    This is the LAST official Friday Night BeerBlog of 2021. And I have a guest sitting in me tonight in the place of Mike. Cate is with me while Mike spends some time with his mom. And that is where he needs to be.

    Don't be surprised if Mike and I jump in here and do a wrap up, but this is the last official.

    Thank you for another year of support.  All 5 of you. You know who you are.

    Sending lots of love for the holiday season. Let's go kick some ass in 2022.

  • FNBB 44 - All Goals Are Not Created Equal

    We just got back from the 2021 Cyclocross National Championships where Mike aka The Pickle finished 6th in the country. You'd think he'd be happy, especially since his goal was to finish in single digits. But no, immediately he wished he had done better to be on the podium of top 5 of the race. Always a bridesmaid.

    We talk about needing to celebrate all intention goals and not get down about not reaching outcome goals. You can only grow that way.

    We hope you enjoy this Cyclocross Nationals rehash and thank you for all your good wishes and congrats for Mike's awesome finish. 

    And Happy 5th Birthday to MILEWIDE BEER CO. whose 5th Anniversary DDH NEIPA we are drinking tonight.

    All the best to all 5 of you - LLM

    It's the week before we travel to  Chicago for the United State Cyclocross National Championships. The McShanes have a long history with this race and we're talking about it and our hiatus and now our (hopefully) triumphant return.

  • FNBB 42 - Don't Pack That Thanksgiving Gratitude Box Just Yet

    On this holiday version of the Friday Night BeerBlog we're continuing with the theme of gratitude and being thankful year round. Get that box of thankfulness out of the attic where the rest of the Thanksgiving decorations are being stored and get to it.

    We hope all 5 of you enjoy the Friday Night BeerBlog and come back to listen next week.  Follow or Subscribe to the podcast if you are a die-hard fan like me.

    I'm on instagram at http://www.instagram.com/lesleylmcshane and my website is https://llmcshane.com and all the crap is there.

    Much love!!

  • FNBB 41 - Ghosting in Adulthood Isn't Mean, It's Rude

    Tonight is a split version of the FNBB - Mike is in North Carolina to race and I am back at the homestead with the pups. But that hasn't kept us from our weekly duty of coming to you with the Friday Night BeerBlog. 

    This week I am talking about how when you ghost someone in your teens and twenties that is mean, but ghosting in adulthood is just plain rude. And I know from experience because I have been ghosted by the same person TWICE in the last month. 

    The message is clear. Don't say YES if you don't mean YES. If you mean NO, just say NO. There are no egos here to be wounded, just people to get pissed off if you treat them like their time doesn't mean anything. Wow, did I say that out loud.

    Anyway, we hope you enjoy this week's Friday Night BeerBlog. We're here every week for all 5 of you that listen. 

    Make sure that you FOLLOW and SUBSCRIBE - I have to say that. It's in my contract.

    Till next week - LLM

  • FNBB 40 - On Time Is Late, Late Is McShane Time

    Woah! It's been a week, but I've been thinking a lot about this week's blog subject all week because last week I waited for Mike for nearly 2 hours before we were about to record the FNBB. So this week I just had to write about how I am lumped in with Mike and his tardiness - arriving everywhere on "McShane Time".

    We hope you listened and if you did you need a reward. If you dig our kind of thing - please FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE. All six that listened last week, you are on a pathway to heaven. 

    The actual blog is at my website https://llmcshane.com. Go check that out if you indeed read.

    My serious podcast is The New Old You and comes out every Wednesday. You'll probably enjoy it more, just sayin'. 

    Thanks for reading this and we'll be back next week, if you're lucky.

  • FNBB 39 - Walking A Straight Line For Instagram Po-Po

    It's my third FNBB in a row about social media. Mike thinks it is a mini-series like The Thorn Birds, I told him he is old and it is more like a limited series like Bridgerton. We agree to disagree.

    This week I'm talking about how I was taken aback by a message from Instagram this week about how a comment that I made on someone else's post 2 weeks ago has been removed. I was mortified and couldn't think if truly I had said something that fell into their hate speech guidelines. But when I read the comment I asked for a review and am sure that someone "reported" the comment out of error.

    But still, the thought that I did something wrong or broke the rules, shook me to the core. I've still got a lot of work to do in the people pleasing category.

    Thanks for listening - FOLLOW, RATE, and REVIEW - it's the least you can do, right?! haha. JK. Please do it though. 

    To read the actual blog, you'll want to go to my website. https://llmcshane.com and to follow me on instagram before I get kicked off you'll wan to go to http://www.instagram.com/lesleylmcshane

    Till next week - Later - LLM
