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 0125 - Bare Review
The Bums return to the rail yard with S5:E0125, bidding adieu to the Chicago Bear’s matriarch, Lady Virginia McCaskey (RIP) with a Paddy IDNKT installment; a uninspired discussion around the Super Bowl (nobody gives a shit); an MLB ump gets suspended for stupidity and as he doesn’t comprehend the meaning of zero tolerance; PGA’s bad boy event, the PHX Open ensues; NBA legend Pat “Trademarked” Riley makes a few deals, while Buckets heads to the Dubs; Bulls make “a move”, boomerang style (too stupid to insult); and College Basketball coach Mike Woodson is a dead man walking in Indiana.
The back half jumps straight into another special beer review edition, showcasing Athletic Brewing Co.’s “Free Wave” (ABV: .5%), the Bums enthusiasm is palpable, diving head first into this N/A ““Hazy IPA”” (in double quotes for a reason); Rocky’s eyes are stuck to the screen like glue with a new Netflix docuseries that he eventually identifies as, “Vietnam: The War That Changed America”; Rocky installs a new 60 incher in the Eagle’s Nest, and makes the Bums play a guessing game that sinks them; Eddie has a new SIMS topic - rules of the road edition; MJ’s son needs the services of ‘Duey, Cheetham & Howe’ (sic); Paddy makes an inaugural visit to the neighborhood’s new private Pickle Ball club — and finds a new category to hate on. The “beer review” is worth the stretch. Get it.
Recorded on February 6th, 2025 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters, Paddy’s Southside Cave, in Chicago, IL.
