Bums of Manarchy

The Bums are back in the rail yard with S3:E0081 and a special guest, “JL” from Chicago’s Old Irving Brewing; the front starts with a warm welcome, and a dive into the 2023 NFL draft, showcasing the Bears crop of picks; Arlington Heights braces for the wrecking ball; A-A-Ron Rodgers finds a new way to get attention; a quick bemoaning of Chicago MLB ensues; slugger Matt “Mash” Mervis was called up to Wrigley; JL helps the Bums navigate the NBA Playoff status, including the stinkers (Bucks, Dubs) and favs Nuggets and Heat; NHL Playoff breeze by as the Avalanche and Bruins duck out early; tragedy ensues at Churchill Downs due to a rash of injuries leading to euthanasia and mysterious deaths (yikes); and close with a bon voyage to Murphy’s Bleacher’s owner and daughter of the original owner, Beth Murphy (aged 69) - respect.
The back ‘nine’ kicks off with another infamous beer review, showcasing Hopewell Brewing Co.’s “Lil Buddy” (4.2% ABV) an 8 ounce light lager that can be micro-dosed by itself in its wee little can or with a Bloody Mary, etc ; the Bums of Manarchy podcast has surpassed 2,000 downloads; a review of three passings and one is not like the others; Rocky shares a travelogue on Asheville, NC; Ms. O gets the lambskin, while the KY Wildcats get a really good one; Paddy has a blast in grocery aisle; and a local restaurant, Hearth and Crust, is “badged over” as Buena Terra, and it’s excellentee! All of this plus a fourth knucklehead. Get some.
Recorded May 4th, 2023 at B.O.M. northwest headquarters ‘The Eagle’s Nest’ in Chicago, IL USA.
