TBR Special Edition - Reggie's Wake

I will be the first to admit that this is a strange way to do a show... Groucho and CHUD come back to the studio after going to a visitation for a longtime friend of both. Reggie.

Reg was only 30 when he died in a motorcycle accident... But we decided to share some of the many stories we have with our bud. In hopes to show off what a spectacular life he led in such a short time.

Beers enjoyed during the recording of this show: Thunderhead IPA, Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree IPA. (Big shocker... More IPA's!!)

Episode 29 - Corporate Shills

Its another weeknight edition of the show... When is CHUD going to get some decent days off???

This show brings us free beer! Free Beer? Yeah, from the factory even! OK, we sprang for one... But from what we tasted... Free beer seems to taste better. Imagine that! For this reason... This is a long bloated show... Bloated with beer and other nonsense. The apologies section is long... And Groucho is in a mood that none of us recognize!

Beers on the show: Springboard Ale by New Belgium Brewing, Super Duper Dog by Lucky Labrodor Brewery, Lagunitas IPA, Stoudts Double IPA.

Topics of conversation:

• Colorado... In a nutshell
• The Absinthe of beer?
• CHUD's apologies - Berkley Students, Goose Island, Vampires, Indigo Children.
• Furnace noise.
• Groucho's apologies - Goose Island, our listeners for show 28, Exploiting the homeless, Nipples and Nuts, Keelhauler.
• Springboard and corporate pimping. (26:00 minutes in for corporate people who dont want to listen to our nonsense)
