This week on The Dirty Glass Podcast, Nick, Denny the Mixologist, and special guest Shawn “The King Can” introduce a brand-new segment called “Waste Management.”

Now before anyone gets the wrong idea — we’re not talking about garbage or anything bathroom-related. We’re talking about managing the waistline. The boys have realized that all those drink reviews might be catching up with them around where the pants button up, so it’s time to see if they can still enjoy a few drinks while keeping the waist under control.

To kick off the segment, the crew is testing diet and low-calorie beers to see if lighter options can still deliver the taste without packing on the calories.

Nick, Denny the Mixologist, and Shawn “The King Can” put these beers through the classic Dirty Glass taste test, rating flavor, drinkability, and whether these lighter brews are actually worth keeping in the rotation.

Can a low-calorie beer still satisfy real beer drinkers?

Will Denny the Mixologist give any of these a pass?

And will Shawn “The King Can” still be able to live up to his name with diet beers?

It’s the debut of Waste Management — where the goal is simple: keep enjoying great drinks while trying to keep the waistline from expanding.

Grab a glass and join the guys for another hilarious episode of The Dirty Glass Podcast.

This week on The Dirty Glass Podcast, Nick and Denny the Mixologist officially enter their “health era”… or at least that’s what we’re calling it.

No cream. No sugary pre-mix. No mystery ingredients.

Just vodka, soda water, and concentrated fruit juice.

Joining the show is special guest Zippy, who wastes no time questioning whether “concentrated” and “healthy” belong in the same sentence.

On the tasting table:

• Vodka + concentrated cherry juice + soda water

• Vodka + concentrated cranberry juice + soda water

• Vodka + concentrated grapefruit juice + soda water

Three simple builds. Three very different flavor profiles.

The cherry brings bold sweetness and depth.

The cranberry delivers that sharp, tart kick.

And the grapefruit? Bitter, crisp, and dangerously crushable.

We break down which juice holds up best with vodka, which one gets elevated by the bubbles, and which one might be the sleeper hit of the night.

Is this the cleanest episode we’ve ever done?

Or just a clever way to justify day drinking with fruit?

Zippy brings the heat.

Denny brings the balance.

Nick brings the questions.

And by the end, one concentrated contender stands tall.

The Dirty Glass Podcast – Special Travel Edition: Rating the Road to the Desert 🌵🚗 This special travel edition of The Dirty Glass Podcast flips the script in the best way possible. Instead of rating drinks, Nick is on the road with special guest Karen and his niece Chelsea, cruising out of Las Vegas and into the open desert—and this time, we’re rating holes along the way. As the city disappears in the rearview mirror, the desert drive takes center stage. Long stretches of highway, rugged mountains, wide-open skies, and all the strange, unexpected sights you only notice when you slow things down. Every stop and stretch of road becomes part of the experience, with the crew humorously rating the holes and sights they come across on the journey to the hike. The drive to the Fire Wave hike and the 7 Wonders Loop builds the anticipation as the scenery shifts from urban chaos to pure Nevada wilderness. Rock formations start to appear, colors get bolder, and the landscape feels more and more unreal. There’s minimal talking, heavy visuals, and a relaxed road-trip vibe that lets the desert do most of the talking. It’s The Dirty Glass Podcast like you’ve never seen it before—no glasses, no bar, just desert roads, laughs, and a completely unnecessary but highly entertaining hole-rating system. Buckle up and come along for the ride as we take the long way to the hike and turn the drive itself into the main event.#TheDirtyGlassPodcast#DirtyGlassTravel#TravelEdition#VegasRoadTrip#LasVegasDesert#DesertDrive#FireWaveHike#SevenWondersLoop#NevadaAdventure#RoadTripVibes#RateTheHoles#OffTheBar#TravelVlog#DesertViews

Super Sized Special Holiday Episode of The Dirty Glass PodcastWhat happens after Christmas, when the sleigh is parked, the reindeer are fed, and Santa finally gets a minute to himself? 🤔 On this Super Sized Special Holiday Episode of The Dirty Glass Podcast, Denny the Mixologist and Nick asked the most important question of the season: What would Santa Claus drink in that quiet stretch between Christmas and New Year’s? Santa’s answer? A bold, weird, cozy, and slightly unhinged lineup of beers — all poured, rated, debated, and roasted in one epic episode. The holiday flight includes: 🍺 Guilty Remnant White Stout from Blood Brothers Brewing — creamy, sneaky, and confusing in the best possible way. 🍺 Paulaner Weissbier — a classic, smooth wheat beer fit for a timeless icon. 🍺 DAB 8% — big, boozy, and strong enough to keep Santa awake through New Year’s Eve. 🍺 Cowbell Oatmeal Vanilla Black Lager — dark, smooth, and dessert-like, perfect for cold nights at the North Pole. 🍺 Czechvar Dark — rich, malty, and traditional, because even Santa respects the classics. Nick and Denny break down each beer with honest ratings, holiday humour, and plenty of side commentary as they decide which pours belong on Santa’s post-Christmas wish list — and which ones get left out in the snow. It’s a longer, heavier, holiday-fuelled episode packed with laughs, opinions, and enough beer to make Rudolph see double.
