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!

The bums return to the rail yard with S6:E0147 — as the top rolls eyes with a post Super Bowl bow tying — and the NFL sleeps until the next campaign starts (and we don’t want to hear SHIT about the NFL draft until April Fool’s Day at the very earliest); Paddy and heiress visit Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston (advice includes wearing your skinny jeans); Sconnie hoops are legit; a Lindsey Vonn update makes “break a leg” a literal reality; and the only other thing to discuss is the Winter Olympics — headlined by curling— and Jake “Everyone Hates You” Paul’s fiancé — a Dutch speed skater with assets.
The second half bounces into another infamous Beer review that features River Saint Joe’s self-titled “Pilsner” (ABV 4%) — a super light, musty nosed pils that resembles Ultra but tastes better (crowler effect notwithstanding); the Kalshi betting platform will let you bet on Spaulding’s booger eating or anything else that floats your boat; a pre-trip Travelogue featuring Eddie’s eldest, who’s heading to an American city larger than NYC, and 3X larger than metro-Chicago by population; Paddy shares a book review “The Boys in the Light” (by Nina Willner) — a WWII era attention grabber; fan talk from Rude Dude — and Lefty (desperately seeking answers). Get some, because really, it’s all there is until March Madness and MLB baseball get rolling. No excuses.
Recorded on February 12th, 2026 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters ‘East Bunker’ in Chicago, IL USA.
