Witness the chaos as the boys fall down the cocktail rabbit hole as they decide to try to invent their own cocktails. Maybe they're just tired. Maybe it's been a long season.

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast
In the countdown to the season finale, Stephen and Mark stray from the path of horror into a subtle and delighfully complex scifi story about a monk, a robot, and the questions perhaps everyone should be asking of themselves and each other. A subtle and complex tale deserves a subtle and complex bourbon paired with it, and this episode is no exception as our co-hosts sample Blade & Bow for the first time. NOTE: In this episode, Stephen and Mark both struggle with pronoun usage for the characters. We decided to leave this in rather than edit and re-record. We felt the struggle...
