In today's episode, the Loafers continue their pugilism conversation from the In the Ring episode.  Brian, Bryan and Sean talk about the best MMA movies (never back down), the best fighters and the best fights in MMA history.  The history of the sport itself, and talking about the godfather of MMA, Bruce Lee.  Warrior is one of the greatest sports movies ever made and is criminally underrated, if you haven't seen it, stop listening right now and go watch it!!!
Outro music "Here Comes the Boom" by P.O.D

 This episode is full of Bar Talk.  ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED.

Today is an especially special episode.  Brian was joined by the crazies from Sandys Tavern, Kevin and Kristin, as well as the superstar of the day, Josh Swaner.   On this episode we have a weird and wild amount of bar-talk that somehow also talks about musicals and adult "kids' books".  It's a no format, have fun and let your hair down kind of episode.

Josh and I have been friends for almost 20 years and since he lives in Wisconsin, i don't get to see him as often as i used to.  I hope the next time we hang out we are having a beer at Sandy's Tavern.
I hope Josh has a great birthday and many, many, many more to come.  Love you buddy!

 This was a doozy of an episode.  The topic was "All Things Boston", in honor of Mike Blanchard of the "All Things Transformers" podcast that he hosts.  However, when you get two Blanchard's on the mic, the road becomes fraught with peril and then the journey begins.  The episode has some twists and turns, and some things Boston were discussed.

While the Social Loafer podcast was taking a break for Bryan to recover, Brian recorded a podcast with Mike Blanchard (no relation) on Studio 2009's podcast, called the Podcast Approach.  Mike Blanchard has been a podcaster for 15 years and hosts at least a half dozen shows, from All Things Transformers to the Geekcast Radio to The Pull Bag, Mike talks everything geeky, nerdy and fun. 

On today's episode coming to you from Studio 2009, Mike interviews podcast host Brian Johnson about the background of The Social Loafer Podcast. 

You can follow the Social Loafer Podcast on X (Twitter) @socialloafer85 or the Social Loafer Facebook group.  If you enjoy the podcast, please feel free to share the show with your friends, it really helps our ego...

Sharks... the mindless hunters of the oceans. The world's perfect killing machine. Devils of the deep blue sea... or are they? Today Brian and Bryan discuss the often misunderstood "Devil Fish" and all the popular films that fuel this paranoia.  Bryan is more than a little obsessed with all things shark related and his knowledge of the topic runs deep.

Welcome back Loafers!!  In today's episode, Brian and Tucker discuss the sports that are popular in our hearts but not popular in the conventional sense.  We discuss arm wrestling strategy, terminology, training, equipment, and the many giant names that participate in the sport.  We also talk about Over the Top and Pulling John.

The rest of the conversation is about lacrosse and the Premier Lacrosse league.  Lacrosse movies like the Grizzlies and Fate of a Sport.  Rugby movies Forever Strong and The Nomads as well as a list of the highest grossing sports movies by sport.   It was a great conversation and it feels so good to be recording again!  Loafers Out!!

Outro song "Winner takes it all"  by Sammy Hagar

Good morning, Loafers!!  In today's episode, before we had any idea about what we were doing, how to make a podcast, what to talk about.  We started a conversation that was based on a topic and just hit record.  We have grown by leaps and bounds since September 2022 and you can hear it for yourselves in this conversation how it all began.  This episode is raw, uncut, unfiltered audio with no music, no intro or outro.  The conversation was actually recorded over two days because Bryan wanted to add more to the conversation, since it was supposed to be a Streaming vs. Movie Theater discussion.  We are on a break for a short while, and we won't be back with new episodes until September 1st, 2023.   Loafers, out!
