Steve and Brandon distill b-movies, life, and the internet with distilled spirits and Midwestern sensibilities. Join our weekly catharsis of spirited conversation, airing grievances, and making generalizations with limited information. The movies may not always be good, but at least you won't have to watch them yourself. There will be spoilers. Suggestions for the Cocktail of the Week and Movie of the Week are always welcome.

Bad guys lose.

Many people say this is a podcast about drinking good cocktails with your friends while watching bad movies. But we like to think it's also about romance. So, we prepare everyone for the most important holiday of the year, Valentine's Day, by scrolling through some "Best Gifts for Him/Her" lists and see if any of the tacky trash on them is actually a decent gift idea. Turns out...not many.
Wolfcop: Some Canadian du...

Back after our holiday breaks. Trips to Ohio and Wisconsin were taken. Family festivities were attended. We check in to see how Santa treated us, and ring in the New Year. Steve tells us how to get around the DIA airport and Brandon gets into wordy t-shirts. Oh yeah, and #TacoBarChristmas.
