073: I've Consulted My Personal Starlogs

Welcome back for another week! Michael starts things off by sharing a beer brag from The Beehive State, while Mike somewhat hearkens back to last week's sour episode with a sour brag of his own. Next, Michael talks about a video series from the website Polygon, while Mike relates some recent life changes for the Week in Geek, which leads to a new segment called State of the Podcast, where the hosts make a bombshell announcement. Then, Michael quizzes Mike on some old Windows games that you may have played in years past while bored in the computer lab. Finally, the FDR: where Michael straight up lies to the audience.

069: I'm Pipsy!

Today's episode kicks off with a very friendly attitude, which carries through the rest of the show. Michael regales everyone with more Beer Brags from Colorado (The Golden Chalice State), while Mike also throws back to last week's tasting for his own brags. Next, Michael peaks with his Week in Geek Brag, while Mike talks about some geeky acquisitions that were made possible with his Amazon Mechanical Turk money. Then, Mike finally gets off his rear end and gives Michael a short quiz that leads right into the FDR- a beer that you might expect to be mixed in a metal cup!
