Nature Calls
After a snow-covered week off, Greg and Josh return to the studio to thaw out with a Milk Stout from Maplewood Brewing. Josh recounts the administrative nightmare of scheduling a physical after a four-year hiatus, sparking a conversation about “old man” health maintenance and anti-inflammatory snacks. The guys break down some strange beverage news—from a potential ban on “airplane bottles” in KC to a bizarre bear-poop-infused beer collaboration—before diving into a bag of Bacon Grilled Cheese Lay’s and debating which TV theme songs are worth skipping.
Show Notes
Weather Report: Surviving the 8-10 inches of snow in Festus, MO, and the joy of two consecutive snow days.
Beer of the Week: Maplewood Brewing Fat Pug Oatmeal Milk Stout (Chicago, IL).
Verdict: A solid 5.9% ABV with notes of dark chocolate and coffee. Perfect for a cold day.
Flashback: Realizing they reviewed a similar Horchata Yeti almost 10 years ago.
Health Check: Josh’s return to the doctor after four years, the struggle of finding a new provider, and the looming reality of “the box” (colonoscopies) and shingles shots.
Diet & Snacks:
Josh’s attempt at the “Bobby Approved” anti-inflammatory diet (avocado oil and Clancy’s chips).
Snack Review: Lay’s Bacon Grilled Cheese chips. (Verdict: Surprisingly good).
News from the Cooler:
Kansas City’s potential ban on small liquor bottles and single cans to curb litter and crime.
Weird Brews: The Columbia Sportswear x Breakside Brewery collaboration “Nature Calls”—a beer made with water filtered through… bear poop?
TV Talk:
Greg’s Top 5 TV Theme Songs (and the ones you always skip).
Thoughts on The Sopranos (too long?), Severance (too slow?), and the unnerving nature of The Big C.
Nostalgia: Remembering Budweiser Black Crown and the Platinum era.
