Hello Vietnam!

Fri, 01 May 2026 16:26:00 -0500

Fire up the air fryer and buckle in—we’re hitting the road for a high-speed episode of Beer, Blues, and BS! This week, J.S. Gunslinger joins us live from a 300-mile stretch of highway, fueling up on "Lando Norris" Monster energy drinks and sharing a life-changing air-fried tortellini food hack that you have to hear to believe.

Between traffic reports and GPS rerouting nightmares, we celebrate WrestleMania weekend with some heavy hitters: Mark Kidder is double-fisting Templeton Rye from an Austin 316 glass, while Rudeboy Kyle welcomes the legendary Yuengling to its new home in Iowa. We also debut a brand-new segment, "The Blues Blotter," featuring the most bizarre and hilarious police reports from the Montana "Flathead Beacon."

Plus, we talk competitive shooting with the new Sig 2011 "Night Shift," plan an "Ultimate Blues Traveler" playlist for our upcoming concert trip, and debate the existence of Mustard Soda.

Is Marvel Dead?

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 16:20:00 -0500

Is the superhero genre officially "over the hill"? This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, we’re diving into the Hollywood saturation crisis—debating whether Chris Pratt and Pedro Pascal are in too many projects and why the MCU feels like it’s stuck in a "Stephen Moffat-era" loop.

But it’s not all movie rants! Rudeboy Kyle is officially turning 40 and planning a bucket-list trip to the Austrian F1 Grand Prix. We break down the logistics of traveling to Salzburg, the controversial "battery-engine" blend of modern racing, and why you should never leave Austria without a bag of Mozart chocolate (unless your dog eats it first).

Plus, Mark Kidder gets emotional over the Artemis 2 moon launch, Howard Blues survives a "hop tea" that tasted like watery lawn clippings, and we discuss the proper vacuum power required for a zero-gravity toilet.

Inside this Episode:

Battlefield 6: The motorbike racing event that’s actually bringing players back.
Hobby News: Howard’s progress on his first paid miniature commission.
David Tennant Stardom: From Good Omens and Staged to the greatest "500 Miles" cover ever recorded.

The Legend's Last Ride

Fri, 17 Apr 2026 15:58:00 -0500

From the airwaves to the assembly line, Episode 260 of Beer, Blues, and BS is a journey through corporate radio drama and high-tech hobbies. Mark Kidder pulls back the curtain on the end of his show, Last Ride Home, giving us a raw look at corporate radio "cutbacks," the secret world of "Radio Diaries," and what it’s like to have the #1 rated show in the country one day and be the "bug on the windshield" the next.

But as one door closes, a parade float opens! The crew brainstorms a world-first: broadcasting the TripleB live from a parade (May 8th!), complete with candy-throwing logistics and "sound interference" warnings.

In the hobby corner, LCL Geek shows off his new drone footage while discussing the legal headaches of Part 107 licensing. Howard Blues shares his first-ever paid miniature commission—a mushroom fairy for a coworker—and reveals the Heritage Center's wild new expansion: a 60-foot Minuteman III missile destined for a 57-foot room.

Rudeboy Kyle: Duvel Belgian Strong Blonde (4.7/5) – Featuring the "Bubbly Tornado."

5 Years of Bs & 1,500 Drinks Later...

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 15:50:00 -0500

Five years. 259 episodes. 1,550 Drinks. We’ve officially hit the half-decade milestone, and we’re celebrating the only way we know how: with a two-hour marathon of brews, questionable trivia, and a healthy dose of revenge.

The anniversary kicks off with a massive What’s On Tap session featuring everything from a legendary 4.9-rated Cold Smoke Scotch Ale to a White Mocha Stout that divided the room. We also dive into the "Big Data" of TripleB—did you know we’ve put away 200 non-alcoholic beverages over the last five years? LCL Geek breaks down the spreadsheets, revealing that 86.77% of our "research" has been strictly alcoholic.

But it’s not all toasts and trophies. JS finally gets his revenge on Howard for years of IPA torture by serving up a bag of mystery drinks. Plus, we talk about the end of an era at Oscars Bar, the legend of Chuck Norris, and a physical challenge in Boise involving a 66-pound silver ingot.

Anniversary Highlights:

Trivia Chaos: We put our history in the hands of a robot, and it hallucinated half the show.
The Spreadsheet Reveal: 998 unique drinks and 8 missing states. We’re coming for you, Mississippi!
Oscars' Under the Pit: New management, refunded memberships, and retrieving grandma's gear from the lockers.
Travel Tips: Why you need to visit Craters of the Moon and a specific Chinese joint in Walla Walla.

3D Coloring and Breast Pump "Frogs"

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 15:47:00 -0500

It’s a family affair and a trip down memory lane! This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, we welcome back a legend: Lefty Blues makes her first appearance since Episode 76! We’ve traded the beer for lukewarm water (shoutout to "Lukewarm Lefty") to tackle a live painting session of some "Heart Breaker" miniatures.

The episode is pure chaos from the start, featuring technical glitches, a "Wild Child" interruption, and the hazards of painting while overtired. We dive deep into the world of Reaper vs. Army Painter speed paints, discuss the "programming" logic of the board game Colt Express, and share some truly therapeutic rants about the nightmare of retail work at Kohl’s.

From the "electronic frog" sounds of wearable breast pumps to the mystery of why toddlers ask the same question 40 times a day, this episode is a raw, funny look at hobbies, parenting, and surviving the workplace.

Inside this Episode:

Retail Horror Stories: Solving the "Shoe Department Puzzle" and dealing with managers who can't remember your name.
Hobby Talk: Is miniature painting just "3D coloring"? Plus, the "Slap Chop" technique and color-correction fails.
Parenting Real Talk: Handling "big emotions" after a late-night Bobcats hockey game.

The Beer Draft: Who Snagged the Best Bottles?

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 16:11:00 -0500

Get ready for the ultimate cellar clean-out! In Episode 257, the crew is clearing the decks and preparing for the road to the 5-Year Anniversary (coming up fast at Episode 259!) with a high-stakes TripleB Beer & Liquor Draft.

To determine the draft order, the team plays a cutthroat guessing game based on nearly 250 episodes of show history. From "Toilet Turtles" to JS Gunslinger’s infamous "Four Loko and Juice" incident, we’re revisiting the moments that made the show.

Before the draft madness, we dive into the "Battle Van" project, debate whether artificial banana flavor is a culinary masterpiece or a crime, and hear a wild "small world" story about Doc meeting Mark Kidder’s dad years before the podcast even existed.

Inside this Episode:

Draft Day: Guessing the episode numbers of show classics to win the "hard stuff."
Small World: Doc’s history with the Kidder family at a high school debate tournament.
The "Worst" Soda: Why the Lemon Warheads soda earned a brutal 1/5 rating.
Lego Talk: LCL Geek’s tips on "Banana Kick" snacks and green screen builds.

Is the Scrubs Revival Actually Good?

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 15:57:00 -0500

From "Electric Blue Phlegm" to $40 lawsuits, this episode of Beer, Blues, and BS is a rollercoaster of medical mysteries and questionable life choices. Howard Blues kicks things off with a terrifying discovery involving color-changing Oreos, while Doc tempts fate by nearly buying a Four Loko—only to settle on a "High Gravity" lager that definitely wasn't "smooth."

The crew dives deep into the Blackhawks' rebuilding agony, the return of Nazem Kadri to the Avalanche, and a heated critique of Starfleet Academy (including an alien that throws up glitter?). We also talk about the Scrubs revival, the "power in numbers" of class action lawsuits, and why every miniature painter needs to own a literal box of skulls.

Inside this Episode:

The "Judas" Opportunity: Why Mark Kidder is failing at wrestling references.
Medical Lawsuits: Why University of Washington students are getting a $40 "win."

Ghosts of the Custer House

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 16:20:00 -0500

From handmade jerky to a "million rabbits walking backward," the crew is back to break down the latest in brews, beef, and the bizarre state of streaming sports. This week, we dive into the "WWE Streaming Nightmare"—explaining why you now need four different subscriptions just to follow your favorite wrestlers—and speculate on the mysterious person-sized crate delivered to Monday Night Raw.

The highlight of the night? A deep dive into Jerky Science. LCL Geek brings a clone recipe from Three Floyds, leading to a heated debate over whether carbonation in a Dr. Pepper marinade actually tenderizes the meat. Plus, we settle the score on Tajin seasoning (it belongs on everything), explore the "ghosts" of the Custer House, and a humorous AI mistake.

On Tap this Episode:

LCL Geek: Rutland Red American Amber Ale (3.7/5)
Rudeboy Kyle: Sam Adams Blackberry Witbier & a Zero Proof Cosmo

Starfleet Academy: A Masterclass in Bad Writing?

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 16:14:00 -0600

Is modern Sci-Fi "rage-baiting" its own fans? This week, Mark Kidder goes on a legendary tear against Starfleet Academy, breaking down everything from planet-sized plot holes to the "moronic" behavior of the newest cadets. From inconsistent transporters to the dramatic, unnecessary warp-sequence strobe lights, we’re asking the tough question: Has Trek lost its way by pandering to short attention spans?

The crew also dives into the Scrubs revival (and whether it can redeem the "Season 9" disaster), the physical accuracy of Alan Ritchson vs. Tom Cruise in Reacher, and why modern Netflix movies feel the need to repeat their plots five times just in case you're looking at your phone. Plus, LCL Geek gives an update on his "Local Lego Builder" channel and we settle the ultimate nerd debate: To sticker or not to sticker?

On Tap this Episode:

Curling Cheaters? The Canadian Finger Poke Controversy

Fri, 27 Feb 2026 16:01:00 -0600

Put down the Silver Monkey and pick up a cold one! This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, the crew is diving into the nostalgia of Legends of the Hidden Temple (and why the reboot totally sucked) before tackling the most bizarre headlines from the Winter Olympics. From a Bismarck local taking home the gold to the infamous "Penis Gate" ski jumping scandal, we’re covering the stories the mainstream news is too afraid to touch.

The "What's on Tap" segment makes history this week with every single drink in Round 1 scoring a 4.0 or higher. We also get a deep dive into Battlefield 6—discussing everything from rainbow sniper shots and tank streaks to the "hardcore" crackdown on cheaters. Plus, Howard Blues continues his "penalty shot" model painting project, while LCL Geek shares the technical struggles of a Lego builder’s green screen.

Inside this Episode:

Olympic Scandals: The Canadian curling "finger poke" controversy and the physics of ski jumping suits.
Gaming Nostalgia: Reminiscing about the 3-minute "Drop Zone" victory and the legendary Shipment map.

The Great Ketchup Heist

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 16:10:00 -0600

Grab your paintbrushes and a cold one! This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, the crew is diving into the "nerd-sphere" as Howard Blues attempts the high-stakes experiment of painting a 3D-printed Ogre Magi on camera. Meanwhile, JS Gunslinger takes "Dad of the Year" honors by detailng his epic project: transforming a salon room into a D&D mine shaft—complete with gold veins and arrowed skeletons.

From the legalities of trademarked rum drinks to the heartbreaking closure of regional staples like Sanford’s Grub and Pub, we’re covering it all. We also settle (or ignite) the great Bismarck debate: Do people actually dip their popcorn in ranch dressing? Plus, we celebrate the 15th anniversary of a certain infamous National Anthem performance, talk "Green Stuff" sculpting, and share tips on how to handle an 80-year-old ketchup thief.

On Tap this Episode (sponsored by Big Bada Boom):

JS Gunslinger: The "Dark and Stormy" (patent pending) and the 3.8-rated Fernley’s Finest.

Howard's Cave of Wonder Crossover

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 16:39:00 -0600

Get ready for a deep-dive "Crossover Special" as Beer, Blues, and BS joins forces with Howard’s Cave of Wonder! This week, Howard Blues and LCL Geek are taking over the microphones to nerd out on everything from tabletop tactics to high-speed police chases. Plus, a huge announcement from Howard. The Triple B will never be the same!

The duo breaks down the "Bismarck-Mandan pursuit" that literally happened right before recording, before pivoting into a masterclass on board games. Whether you’re curious about the best player count for a D&D session, why some classic games like Catan might be overrated, or how to fix a chewed-up TMNT puzzle with nothing but PVA glue and sheer will—this episode has you covered.

Plus, we’re celebrating the launch of LCL Geek’s new YouTube channel, "Local Lego Builder," and discussing the strange world of 3D printing and crowdfunding.

Inside this episode:

Gaming Deep Dive: Why 4th Edition D&D is actually good, the "overrated" status of Catan and Monopoly, and the best mechanics for your next game night.
Lego News: LCL Geek officially launches his new channel, "Local Lego Builder," and shares the secrets of high-speed time-lapses.
Bismarck Local: The inside scoop on a high-speed SWAT pursuit and a car appointment nightmare.
Parenting Level 100: How to raise the next generation of gamers and why you should never let a baby near a TMNT puzzle.

Beer, Brawls, and Liquid Bread?

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 16:26:00 -0600

250 EPISODES! We’ve officially hit a massive milestone, and the whole crew is here to celebrate in the rowdiest "mega-episode" yet. From Tony Soprano and Doc to JS Gunslinger and Big Badda Boom, the virtual table is packed for four intense rounds of tastings.

This episode has everything: a breakdown of the legendary Chicago Pizza debate (Lou Malnati’s vs. Giordano's), a deep dive into the "spirit tax" of Washington State, and the mystery of the "staged" youth hockey brawl that went viral. We also pay our respects to the late Scorpions bassist, Francis Buchholz, and Howard Blues tries to survive a "fermented bread drink" that tastes exactly like liquid toast.

Whether you have been here since the beginning or just joining the show now—grab a cold one and join the family. Here’s to 250 more!

The Bismarck Burger Slam

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 15:44:00 -0600

With Howard Blues making an "Irish goodbye" to nurse a fever, the rest of the crew kicks into high gear for a marathon session of Beer, Blues, and BS! From the "ocean spray" saltiness of Talisker 10-Year Scotch to a deep dive into the Bismarck Burger Slam, this episode is a feast for the senses. We’re breaking down the best (and most "basic") burger entries in town, debating whether cilantro actually tastes like soap, and mourning the loss of a bison burger because the restaurant was literally empty.

Plus, we head to the desert for a Las Vegas travel guide: learn how to dodge those $50 resort fees, where to find the best all-you-can-eat lobster, and why you should never pass up "dangerous" 8.5% ABV guava cider.

Deep Dish Dive

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 16:38:00 -0600

From the "Living Embodiment of Charlie Brown" to a quest to "beat the Google," Episode 248 is a wild ride through sickness, scotch, and Sci-Fi mishaps!

The crew is battling the "crud" this week, with Howard Blues powering through a fever and Rudeboy Kyle recovering with a strategic mix of electrolytes and Sam’s Club bourbon. Meanwhile, Brother Niko breaks down the frustrating saga of a misspelled Star Trek model, and Mark Kidder gives us the cold, hard truth about shipped frozen deep-dish pizza.

Whether you're here for the 4.1-rated Straw Gator, the heated debate over Chicago’s best pizza (Lou Malnati’s vs. Giordano's), or just want to hear the team plead with the world to wash their hands—this episode has it all.

On Tap this Episode:

Is Calling Someone "Bald" Harassment?

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 15:45:00 -0600

Episode 247 brings the heat—and the cold! While the host might be "very much drunk" by the end, we’ve got a massive show filled with breaking news, simulator gameplay, and the long-awaited origin story of Howard’s Hannah Montana incident.

In this episode, we tackle some heavy-hitting headlines:

• The Menards Lawsuit: We break down the $4.25 million settlement over those famous 11% rebates. Is it a discount or a deceptive practice?

• The "Baldness" Ruling: A British court has ruled that calling a man "bald" can be sexual harassment. Howard and Mark discuss what this means for their own workplace banter.

• Snow Plow Simulator Access: Mark Kidder gets exclusive developer access to a new simulator!

The Main Event: Howard finally spills the beans on the "Hannah Montana Story." It’s a wild tale involving a stressful portfolio review, being falsely labeled a racist at UND, and a post-exam drinking session that led to a very unexpected TV binge. This leads to a deep dive into:

• The pressure of graduating in four years.

• Why most of us took much longer to finish our degrees.

• The "utility" of bachelor’s degrees in careers that have nothing to do with them.

Plus, we drink a beverage that is a bad idea for several reasons!

Award Revoked

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 11:45:28 -0600

Episode 246 is here, and the Triple B crew is trading simple cans for high-end mixology—with a side of major controversy!

In this episode, we dive into the industry-shaking news of a title being stripped of its Game of the Year awards over the use of generative AI. We break down the ethics of AI in gaming, its massive environmental footprint, and whether "placeholder" content is killing human artistry.

Highlights from the show:

The Slushie Revolution: Doc puts a new Ninja machine to the test with a "boozy slush" Riesling.
Masterclass Mixology: JS crafts a top-shelf Manhattan and a Gin Ricky, including a mid-show rescue mission to save a bitter flavor profile.
The "White Mocha" Disaster: Mark and Howard suffer through a stout that smells like "rancid summer candy."
The Fighting Sioux Battle: We discuss the bold move by a local man to trademark a legendary nickname and the legal firestorm following it.
Pirate Degrees: Is it actually possible to get an MIT-certified pirate qualification?

Plus, we talk about stolen police car chases, the final flavor in the Mushroom Jerky saga, and JS’s genius hack for "test-driving" expensive hunting knives before you buy.

Blitzed in 2026

Fri, 02 Jan 2026 16:00:00 -0600

Happy New Year! The Triple B crew is back and already "blitzed" for the first show of 2026!

This episode kicks off with a spirited round of What's On Tap featuring gifted drinks, including a fascinating comparison between a New Glarus Spotted Cow and a clone brewed by LCL Geek! Plus, Rudeboy Kyle is sampling a fine Widow Jane bourbon, and Mark Kidder is taking one for the team with a potentially "dangerous" lemon soju.

The conversation quickly turns futuristic and contentious as we dive into Disney’s $1 Billion agreement with OpenAI, discussing the ramifications for actors and artists, and predicting the next SAG strike.

We break down the surprisingly awesome Street Fighter Movie Trailer (ft. Roman Reigns and 50 Cent!), check in on the marathon that is One Piece Season 1, Episode 1,155, and get the details on the new Total War: Warhammer 40k RTS game reveal.

Also featured:

JS Gunslinger breaks his new Code 118 Slimline Wallet immediately.
LCL Geek shares a microwave malfunction story.

How 67 Can Get You 86ed!

Fri, 19 Dec 2025 16:17:00 -0600

🚨 Welcome to Episode 243! 🚨

The crew is back in action and ready for a chaotic round of drinks and shocking stories!

In "What's On Tap," Doc praises an Imperial Red Raspberry Cider that hits all the right notes. Mark Kidder risks his palate on a Strawberry Double Bock and has a surprisingly positive reaction, while JS declares his current drink one of the best beers ever made. Finally, Howard struggles through a mystery Monster-branded drink from JS that he rates very low, proving JS's long-term payback is complete!

But the real headlines are the stories and updates:

The Firing Incident: Howard recounts the bizarre event at his son's after-school care involving the “67” meme?
Howard vs Sword Story: Howard finally tells the true tale of how he was once stabbed with a sword!
The Snowblower Saga: Get the latest, hilariously frustrating update on why Howard is still manually shoveling.

Plus, we talk about the excitement of Mark Kidder buying new Triple B merch, JS's successful garage cleanup, and we challenge listeners to find the Ark of the Covenant hidden in a recent episode thumbnail!

Star Trek Legos: The Brick Frontier

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 16:14:00 -0600

Episode 242 is here, and the debates are as spirited as the drinks!

The episode kicks off with accusations flying as Howard Blues accuses Mark Kidder of cheating on the Star Trek vs. Star Wars poll! Mark Kidder dismisses the idea, demanding they stop talking about political-style interference.

In "What's on Tap," we taste a range of beverages: JS unveils a special "Villain" Old-Fashioned using a clearance liquor he scored. Mark Kidder risks a Tequila Paloma that gives him "chills up my spine." And Howard Blues bravely does a blind taste test of a mystery, year-old gift wrapped by JS, with hilarious results!

Plus, we cover:

Mark Kidder’s Massive Purchase: A deep dive into the awesome details of the LEGO Star Trek Enterprise set, complete with exclusive add-ons.
Credit Card Debate: JS lectures on why he’s succeeded in avoiding credit cards entirely, arguing that debit cards offer the same protection.
Geek Collabs: We check out the brand-new Dungeons & Dragons x Dragon's Milk collaboration beer set!

Join us for the full discussion, and tune in next week for the story of the time Howard was stabbed with a sword!

Unsupervised

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 16:01:00 -0600

Episode 241 is pure chaos as we dive deep into the mysteries of the garage and the highly anticipated "Clear the Snow Simulator"!

With Howard down sick, the crew takes over, starting with JS's spontaneous "random stuff I found in my garage" segment. A segment featuring everything from a non-functional Nerf chain gun to a leaking tractor fuel rod. Should JS start his own show called "JS's Garage of Wonders!"

In "What's on Tap," JS kicks things off with a highly-rated Yingling Black and Tan, while Doc bravely samples a strong Imperial Magic Berry Cider, but its confusing flavor might tank its rating.

But the main event? The intense debate over the "Clear the Snow Simulator" video game! We break down the gameplay, the co-op features, and why one of our co-hosts is now obligated to review the game for a friend. The discussion even pivots to real-life snow plowing with some hilariously suggestive analogies!

Plus, Doc shares some major canceled travel plans, JS talks about their foray into blacksmithing, and we send our collective condolences to our great friend, The Midnight Rocker.

Cleaning with IPA-Fueled Rage!

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 16:45:00 -0600

Howard's sick, JS is battling a "pine cone-flavored" IPA, and the garage is packed with junk! Welcome to Episode 240, where the chaos is strong and the drinks are... debatable.

The absolute must-see moment of the episode is JS's impromptu "rage-fueled" tour of his massive, cluttered garage. What's in there? Everything from old water coolers and car seats to scrap metal and a porta-potty—a display so bizarre that Mark Kidder debates whether he is watching “Storage Wars” or "Hoarders!"

But the tasting segment leads to an unthinkable reaction. After struggling with an awful local IPA that JS claims tastes like a "pine cone," he decides he can't take another sip. Tune in to see the shocking, unprecedented way he chooses to end his relationship with one of the worst beers ever featured on the show! Was it the worst beer we've ever had on the show?

Plus, we dive into two unbelievable news stories:

The Taco Bell Ultra Marathon: An insane 31-mile race where runners are required to stop and eat Chalupa Supremes and Burrito Supremes along the way.
The Lego Theft Ring: How police busted a massive retail theft operation focused on stealing and reselling thousands of highly collectible Lego minifigs.

We wrap up with some much-needed "Dad Jokes of the Week" and serious advice on financial health and pursuing personal passions.

Howard Blues and Mark Kidder are back with Doc, Rudeboy Kyle, and LCL Geek for a Halloween-adjacent deep dive into drinks, snacks, and horror movies!

🤯 What Went Down:

Cider Kryptonite: Howard and Mark clash with beverages! Mark, the self-proclaimed apple hater, finds a surprising win, while Howard drinks something that Kidder hates.
The Jerky Lie: Howard Blues completes another taste test of Pan's Mushroom Jerky (salt & pepper) and concludes all the flavors are mythical!
Snack Masters: Forget the main course! We trade amazing appetizer recipes, including Smoked Cheez-Its and "Taco Mofos" (spicy oyster crackers), after Doc shares memories of a glorious Beer and Bacon Classic event.
Howard's Hot Takes: We settle the ultimate horror debates: Worst Zombie Movie (from Planet Terror to Night of the Living Dead), Best Slasher Villain (Freddy vs. Jason vs. Michael Myers), and the Most Overrated Horror Film (is it Zombieland or Scream?).
Universal Monsters & The Shining: We pick the best classic movie monsters and discuss the bizarre conspiracy theories hidden inside Stanley Kubrick's The Shining.

Plus: Doc's inspiring final thought on just doing it, and Howard's emotional reflection on using the podcast to combat isolation during a chronic health flare-up.

Unintended Consequences

It's a spooky, cider-fueled Halloween edition of Beer, Blues, and Bs! Mark Kidder and Howard Blues welcome Doc, LCL Geek, and Rudeboy Kyle for a night of shocking beverage flops, fierce apple hatred, and potential podcast fraud.

🔥 On the Show:

Apple Aversion Alert: Mark Kidder drops some bombshells about his intense dislike for apples and fruit. Watch his hilarious, low-rating reactions to two 100% apple ciders (one mango habanero, one peach/blackberry) that totally betray his trust! (Spoiler: A 0.3/5 rating happens.)
IPA Fraud?! Howard reveals a highly controversial plan to use an outsider's scores to finish IPA Appreciation Month, which Mark immediately calls "FRAUD!" You won't believe the high score the Cyber Sue IPA gets.
Candy Calamity: Doc samples gross IPA-flavored Halloween candy—one tastes literally like soap and gets a zero!
The Malort Mix: Is a Malort Old-Fashioned a terrible idea? Mark and Doc vehemently agree.
Howard Stern Who? Find out why a new listener thought Howard Blues was the actual Howard Stern!
Cider, Fireball, and Scams: We rate everything from a Shandy to Fireball Blazing Apple, break down the flop of our YouTube ad campaign, and share a scary dash-cam video of a recent car accident!

Are Wacky Beer Labels Killing Craft Beer?

Fri, 07 Nov 2025 16:44:00 -0600

In Episode 237, we're tasting a homebrew clone, debating conspiracy theories, and diving into the controversial world of craft beer marketing!

The "What's on Tap" segment features a special experiment: LCL Geek's homebrewed "Barnfind" farmhouse ale—a clone of the highly-regarded New Glarus Spotted Cow! We compare the clone to the original to see if LCL Geek nailed the flavor profile. Plus, Doc sips a smooth White Peach Cider, while Rudeboy Kyle embraces the low-budget life with a "shutdown series" classic: Natural Ice.

But the flavor journey doesn't stop there! Howard Blues brings back Pan's Mushroom Jerky, this time in Zesty Thai, sparking a heated—and hilarious—debate with Doc over the authenticity of its "organic Thai seasoning" and the use of cayenne pepper.

Finally, we sink our teeth into a New York Times critique that calls for craft beer to ditch the wacky labels and the IPA "arms race." Does a silly name like "Purple Monkey Dishwasher" sell beer, or is it killing the industry? The crew is split!

AI Art, Pizza Lands, and MTG's IP Controversy!

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 16:38:00 -0500

We're live from the heart of downtown Bismarck for Episode 236! Mark Kidder is enjoying an Old Fashioned and a hockey win, while the rest of the crew dives into a fresh round of diverse drinks, all courtesy of their friend, Pat!

In the "What's on Tap" segment, LCL Geek samples a delicious S'mores Stout that's perfect for a campfire. Meanwhile, Howard Blues risks his taste buds with an El Chavo Mango Habanero Hard Cider that brings both sweetness and surprising heat! Doc even braves a Hazy IPA and rates it a pitiful 1.5, while Rudeboy Kyle goes economical with a simple Mexican lager. And That is only round 1!

But the party doesn't stop there! We jump into a Magic: The Gathering update on controversial SpongeBob and TMNT sets and address the rumors that Wizards of the Coast is using AI-generated art on their cards. Plus, we've got a fresh batch of hilariously bad Dad Jokes, discuss why Mark Kidder hates all things apple-flavored, and unpack the importance of a mini-beer fridge for optimal podcasting.

Finally, we close out by revealing the true, surprisingly wholesome origin of the "Blues" in the "Beer Blues and BS" title!

Contrails or Chemtrails

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 16:00:00 -0500

This week, we dive into conspiracy theories, share embarrassing stories from our youth, and debate the bizarre realities of small-town life. Get ready for a lively discussion on everything from chemtrails and van camping to getting tickets for exhibition driving!

This week, we're tasting everything from a smooth Hairy Man Whiskey to a terrible Ninkasi Gold Lager that Doc rates poorly. And speaking of bad taste, Mark Kidder is forced to review an Apple Imperial Hard Cider, reinforcing his absolute hatred for all things apple and cherry flavored.

Beyond the drinks, we dive into:

The great Contrail vs. Chemtrail debate: government conspiracy or just condensation?
The cost of van camping and why converting a used ambulance is a surprisingly smart idea.
Exhibition Driving Tickets: Howard and JS share their hilarious stories of getting caught doing donuts on prom night and in parking lots.
The insanity of Medora's zoning laws and why the town's "Wild West" feel is a total fabrication.
An exciting personal update: Doc is performing at an elite venue!

Join us as we sip, debate, and consider buying a fleet of used ambulances!

Tap Two and Play Starfleet Frycooks?

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 16:26:00 -0500

IPA Appreciation Month is officially over, and in Episode 234, the crew is celebrating with a variety of drinks... though some still insist on drinking double IPAs!

Doc returns with a bitter Double IPA, rating it a mere 1.5, while JS Gunslinger finds relief in a smooth Shock Top Mango Wheat. Howard attempts to revisit a previously bad IPA, and Mark Kidder celebrates the return of hockey season with a classic lager.

But the real discussion centers on the wild world of Magic: The Gathering! We dive into the controversial new "Universes Beyond" crossovers, imagining SpongeBob and Ren & Stimpy cards, and recount the $3 million sale of the one-of-a-kind "The One Ring." Plus, we get into:

The emotional end of Howard's 211-mile walking challenge.
The excitement for the return of Ice Road Truckers.
Our favorite Dad Jokes of the Week.
Why The Simpsons was banned in Howard's house.

Tune in as we wrap up a month of hoppy torture and look forward to new—and less bitter—adventures!

Pickle Beer or AI Music: Which is Worse?

Fri, 10 Oct 2025 16:13:00 -0500

In Episode 233, we're still following Howard Blues on his 211-mile walking challenge! He's letting the crew guide him through the dark streets, and this time, we try to navigate him back home while he struggles with blisters and the wrong shoes.

On the drinks menu, things get weird. Rudeboy Kyle is all in with a sour ale with dill pickles—is it a refreshing tart treat or an absolute crime against beer? Then, Mark Kidder gives us the rundown on a very s'moresy s'mores beer. Plus, LCL Geek samples a highly-rated Spotted Cow while Big D reviews a Tropical Mango energy drink.

The crew also dives into a massive physical feat: Big D recounts the grueling Norwegian Foot March, a sanctioned 18.6-mile walk with an 11-pound ruck. Finally, Howard experiments with AI-generated theme songs for the podcast (with predictably hilarious technical issues) and we lose ourselves discussing the chaos of the Magic Roundabout in England. Don't miss this mix of fitness, funky drinks, and AI gone wrong!

Howard Walks Across North Dakota

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 16:45:00 -0500

Episode 232 is a podcast in motion! Howard Blues takes on a 211-mile walking challenge—crossing North Dakota live on the show—and he's letting the crew navigate! That's right, he's walking through a random neighborhood, relying on our real-time, zero-map-checking directions. Will he find his way or end up in a ditch? Tune in to find out!

We're still (somehow) in IPA Appreciation Month, forcing the crew to sample more bitter brews, including a Raging Furious IPA that lives up to its name. One person's preference is so shot they'd rather eat every variety of mushroom jerky than continue. We also dive into alternative drinks, from a "cough syrup" Monster Energy to a highly drinkable blonde ale.

Plus, we share our best (and worst) Dad Jokes, recount a grueling 21-mile walk in Guam, and debate the ridiculousness of roundabouts. By the end, we estimate Howard has walked nearly two miles just for the show. Don't miss this episode as we prove that walking and podcasting mix about as well as a bitter IPA and a cough syrup energy drink!

Pastor of Muppets

Fri, 26 Sep 2025 16:04:00 -0500

We're still in the thick of IPA Appreciation Month, and things are getting dicey in Episode 231. Some of our crew are enjoying the taste, but others have a different opinion. One of our tasters gets a Dead Guy Imperial IPA, and it's so bad they rate it a 0.3 out of 5. We're pretty sure we're torturing ourselves for your entertainment.

But we didn't stop at just bad beer. Howard brings back the dreaded Pans Mushroom Jerky! This time, it's applewood barbecue flavored, and the taste test results are... anticlimactic. Are their taste buds just shot from all the IPAs, or is the jerky just not good? We then propose a "mushroom appreciation month," to which no one seems on board.

Plus, we celebrate a major milestone as the podcast gets monetized on Facebook and Mark Kidder reveals the secrets to a viral social media post. We also get into the odd world of novelty food products, share some hilarious stories about bingo halls and work etiquette, and find out two of our hosts are ordained ministers. It's an episode full of laughs, frustration, and enough bad beer to last a lifetime.

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 16:03:00 -0500

Get ready for another wild ride on episode 230! We're back with the crew, and things get weird fast. We're still in IPA Appreciation Month, but with mixed results. One of our tasters even gives a beer a 0.5 rating, while another declares a double IPA "trash" and wants to switch to whiskey.

But the real chaos comes from the surprise appearance of a Batman-themed JS from a masquerade ball. We get into some classic Golden Eye tricks, discuss some breaking news from the world of WWE, and Howard shares a hilarious story about their wife's one and only time getting drunk.

Plus, we dream up our own TripleB Studio, talk about a bingo night gone wrong, and share some news about a new brewing project from LCL Geek. It's an episode full of laughs, bad beer, and an abundance of absurdity you won't want to miss.

Drink Imperial IPAs, Make Bad Decisions

Fri, 12 Sep 2025 16:19:00 -0500

It's episode 229 and we're officially halfway through IPA Appreciation Month! We're back with "the doc," "JS gunslinger," and "Big D" as we dive headfirst into more hoppy mayhem.

This week, we subject our palates to another hazy IPA, and let's just say the reviews are mixed... and mostly bad. One person says it tastes like a "Bud Light with a little bit extra Christmas tree," while another claims they taste "zero pineapple." Plus, Howard tries a Double IPA that immediately makes their "whole world start spinning."

But it's not all about the beer! "Howard's Hot Takes," where we debate everything from the most underrated sci-fi show to the one that was canceled too soon. We also discuss the frustrations of reassembling a gun's internal parts, a "Bean Boozled" challenge gone wrong, and why one of us has a ghost pepper chip-induced burning mouth. It's another wild ride you won't want to miss!

The Worst Beer and The Weirdest Jerkey

Fri, 05 Sep 2025 16:17:00 -0500

In episode 228, we dive deep into a terrible Imperial IPA, Howard tries a questionable snack, and the controversy around AI art.

This week, Howard bravely samples Pan's Mushroom Jerky, a vegan, plant-based, gluten-free snack. What's the verdict on this shiitake mushroom-based jerky? Is it a delicious, savory alternative, or just a sweet, chewy oddity? The unexpected California warning label adds another layer of intrigue to this fungus-based discussion.

We're also talking about the backlash against AI-generated art and why Howard is moving away from it for show thumbnails. Is AI art a form of theft? We discuss the public skepticism and the hilarity of some AI-generated images, including one of Mark Kidder as Yoda. Plus, we've got updates on "KD's Log," a Beretta disassembly challenge, and Mark's viral petition to ban IPAs. All this, plus a heated debate on Star Trek vs. Star Wars and an expensive car breakdown! We also get into the history of hops and why they were once banned.

Fri, 29 Aug 2025 16:30:00 -0500

Hold on tight for episode 227 of the Beer, Blues, and Bs podcast! This week, the crew navigates some treacherous territory. We're talking terrible IPAs, Google Maps leading us into a pond, and a rented Kia Optima that went where no Kia has gone before.

Join Howard, Brother Niko, LCL Geek, JS, Mark Kidder, and Big D as they tackle a new round of beer ratings, rant about IPA Appreciation Month 🍻, and recount a chaotic trip to Montana that included a near-death experience in a Kia. Plus, we've got stories about terrible guides, golf's "skirt rule," and why you might see a man in a tactical kilt.

It's a rollercoaster of emotions, from the highs of a delicious spiked punch to the lows of a "p!$$ water" IPA. Don't miss this wild ride—and maybe think twice before you trust Google Maps.

Plus, Howard rants about Jaws 3D!

Does Malört Go Bad?

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 16:17:00 -0500

Howard's back in the captain's chair, but sleep deprivation is the real co-host this week! Join Howard, Kidder, Rudeboy Kyle from Iowa, Doc from the East Coast, and the ever-elusive Big D (location undisclosed) for a wild ride through everything from bizarre beverages to F1 safety concerns!

What's on Tap: Beer & Beyond!

Get ready for some truly unique taste tests! Rudeboy Kyle sips on a Southside Citra Hop Blonde Ale from Confluence Brewing, while Doc bravely tries Tiff's Spiked Lemonade (with lemon and coconut!). Kidder goes classic with Garage Beer, comparing it to a certain light lager.

But it's not all about the brews! Big D struggles with a non-English Coffee Planet package, and Howard introduces a Polish dark lager, Velcopo Vicki, alongside a new "nonIPA month" initiative (don't worry, IPA Appreciation Month is coming!).

The Malört & NYC Adventures

The group dives into the legend of a very old bottle of Malört left at Howard's. Can this infamously bad liquor actually "go bad?" Doc weighs in with a definitive answer, and Rudeboy Kyle shares news of a barrel-aged version. Doc also recounts his brief but memorable time in New York City, complete with late-night roadwork and a shocking champagne vending machine discovery!

Hot Takes, High Tracks, & Gaming Debates

Howard's beloved segments are back! Get ready for Dad Jokes of the Week (brace yourselves, Big D isn't a fan!), and dive into the future of racing with a discussion on a controversial elevated Formula 1 track in Saudi Arabia. Rudeboy Kyle raises serious safety concerns, humorously likening it to a dangerous "Rainbow Road!"

The gaming deep dive begins with classic video game remasters. Howard wants Perfect Dark, Kidder recalls an arcade-turned-N64 gem like Gauntlet Legends, and Rudeboy Kyle dreams of a Tomb Raider overhaul. The conversation veers into GTA 6's development time and the gaming industry's crunch culture, lamenting buggy releases and day-one patches. The group then shares their love-hate relationship with Mario Party and the perils of online tornado chasing.

Driving Woes & Show Shenanigans

From stop sign woes in virtual worlds to real-life red light runners, Howard recounts a near-miss driving incident and the satisfying sight of a police pull-over. The gents discuss the frustrations of distracted driving and puzzling traffic light logic.

Plus, catch up on random news like a new buck truck in Flashing Lights, a Herabbo gummy bear recall (cannabis contamination?!), and Skittles losing titanium dioxide. Doc laments late-night construction noise in Midtown Manhattan, and Big D shares concerns about steep stairs after a few drinks.

Tune in for a jam-packed episode as the gang navigates sleep deprivation, controversial beverages, and some truly wild stories!

Howard's under the weather this week, so Mark Kidder is bravely flying solo! Fear not, though, as he's joined by the usual fantastic crew: Rudeboy Kyle, Doc, the LCL Geek, and JS Gunslinger!

Even with Howard resting up, the Dad Jokes of the Week must go on, and Doc is stepping up to the plate to deliver the groan-worthy goodness.

The main event this week dives into a crucial question: has beer gone bougie? The guys discuss the ever-increasing complexity, price tags, and overall "fanciness" of craft beer. Have we gone too far in our pursuit of unique brews?

Beyond the beer debate, the conversation will also touch on the world of rock bands, some intriguing crime stories, and the excitement of the NHL Playoffs. Kidder also sends out a hearty Happy Wrestlemania Weekend to all the wrestling fans out there!

And finally, in the always-popular "What's on Tap?" segment, Kidder and the LCL Geek are taking a walk on the wild side and trying some high-energy brews that could be either surprisingly good or spectacularly bad. We're talking alcoholic Monster drinks – you won't want to miss their reactions!

Fri, 02 May 2025 15:59:00 -0500

Get ready for a beer-centric episode of Beer, Blues, and BS! Mark Kidder and Howard Blues are joined by the usual suspects: Big D, The Doc, LCL Geek, and Rudeboy Kyle. Unfortunately, JS Gunslinger is still battling the tech gremlins and remains in a digital deep freeze!

This week, Howard is pondering his evolving beer palate. Have all the strange and experimental brews he's been trying lately ruined his appreciation for simpler beers? He's on a quest for more complex flavors, and the guys discuss the potential pitfalls of beer snobbery. Plus, even in his frozen state, JS managed to find something to contribute!

The second half of the show is dominated by Howard's Hot Takes, and this time, the topic is near and dear to our hearts: BEER! Get ready for some strong opinions, passionate defenses of favorite brews, and maybe even a few surprising choices from the gang. What are their go-to beers? What styles do they love (or loathe)? Tune in for a spirited debate!

Even with a man down (digitally speaking), the BS flows freely in this beer-heavy edition of the podcast!

We then shift gears to the often overlooked world of bathroom humor, sharing some of the funniest and most bizarre signs we've encountered. You won't believe what people put on those walls!

Kidder brings us the latest in gaming news, discussing the newest Farm Simulator game and the intense tornado chasing simulator, Outbrk!. Get ready for some virtual farming and storm chasing adventures.

But the main event? Howard's Hot Takes, this time centered around the delicious (and often controversial) world of fast food. Prepare for some seriously salty opinions and heated debates as we dissect our favorite and least favorite fast food chains.

Howard's back with more of his legendary Dad Jokes of the Week, guaranteed to make you groan and chuckle. JS joins us from the road in Atlanta, bringing tales of strange beers and even stranger encounters. Did he stumble upon pirate treasure, or a cursed artifact? Tune in to find out!

And finally, we delve into the surprisingly expensive world of LEGOs. The gents discuss their dream sets, the sticker shock of collecting, and the reality of $80 miniatures. Is any hobby truly budget-friendly?

Plus, Kidder shares some exciting news about a new hot sauce!

But that's not the only alcohol-related drama! JS and Doc get into a heated debate about whether free alcohol always tastes better, leading to a questionable deal: Doc and Howard may be trading a terrible beer for a shot of Malört! Prepare for the consequences.

We're also unveiling a brand new Triple B Drinking Game! Get ready to play along and join the madness.

JS Gunslinger's battle against the ghost of Jimi Hendrix rages on as he continues to wrestle with the Pet Place Salon's wiring. Will he ever conquer the spectral electrician?

Hockey fans, rejoice! Kyle and Howard share their thoughts on the 4 Nations Cup. Was this international tournament as excellent as it seemed? We'll break down the highlights.

And finally, Kyle introduces us to a promising new game: Ale Abbey! Imagine Stardew Valley meets a tycoon-style brewery simulator. Could this be the next group favorite?

In this week's History with Howard segment, Howard and Kidder take us behind the scenes and share the hilarious history of their own Blues Brothers act. You don't want to miss this!

And of course, Howard has more groan-worthy goodness for you in the Dad Jokes of the Week segment! Prepare for some serious eye-rolling (and maybe a chuckle or two).
