Bums of Manarchy
3 knuckleheads in Chicago, talking shit. For fun. The “Bums of Manarchy” is a Chicago-based podcast, hosted by 3 friends. Our weekly format is recorded in two parts. The first half content is all about sports, and the second half is for everything else (beer reviews, life hacks, complaints, knowledge drops, geo-political issues, streaming show reviews, etc.). Sports in the front, party in the back. Give us a listen! We take listener requests seriously!
Bums of Manarchy
B.O.M. - Episode 0124 - One Mother Fucker
The Bums are back in the rail yard for S5:0124, smacking the top half with Chicago Bears coaching picks; NFL Playoff finales and Super Bowl look ahead assessment; the Kansas City Refs are a on a terror (rolls eyes); Olin “Crazy Eyes Killer” Kruetz hired by Bears as new O-line coach (kinda); Justin “Tugger” Tucker - recent grad from DeShaun Watson Charm School - is another massage predator; Buckeyes man-handles the Irish to win the College Football Championship; Vandy’s freshman scoring record busted again; with spring around the corner talk turns to baseball and the Hall of Fame holdout(s) who should be punched in the face; Yankees bake sale fails to cover payroll; NBA trade season starts with a head scratcher; Jimmy “Drama” Butler is weird; TGL Golf not really real; and close with NCAA soccer farm systems being a thing.
The second half zings into another infamous beer review with a collaboration with Chicago’s Old Irving Brewing’s and San Francisco’s Barebottle Brewing Company with “Overland Flyer” (ABV 5.9%), a West Coast Pilsner brewed with a lager grain bill, dry-hopped. It features Citra, Nectaron, & Sabro buds, fermented with a clean lager yeast; presents as crisp and hop-forward, especially for a pilsner (well done); Rocky nearly crys over spilt bloodies — and it goes as you’d expect; The band The Band lost its final living member (sad emoji face); Eddie fingers a 10 pounder and Rocky is on shovel duty; another Chow Report installment bakes with Trumer Tap y Cinco Rabanitos; Rocky’s Vegas streak is intact; singing the Brown People Blues; something’s amiss with signage Chicago’s Empty Bottle; and close as Paddy gives Netflix series ‘Night Agent’ a once over. Bums of Manarchy, here it comes, better fresh — t-shirts for everyone.
Recorded on February 2nd, 2025 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters, Paddy’s Southside Cave, in Chicago, IL
