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 are back in the rail yard with another milestone episode — our 150th (back in the Eagle’s Nest HQ where it all started)!!! The bums come off the top rope with Round 1 Master’s banter; March Madness wrap-up is covered with an emphasis on Maize-and-Blue’s epic journey (about fucking time the Big Ten had a decent showing; MLB opens as former Cub Jorge Soler and Reynaldo Lopez crack off pugilism style; the Cubs injury list (ouch, it hurts); Jamaican-America umpire C.B. Bucknor sucks a bag of you-know-whats (as receipts are now viewed in the public eye); Tiger hits his driver (again); an Angel heads south; and close as the Lady Vols are taking applications.
The bums slide under the bottom rope with Part 2, and yet another “remote double-feature” beer review for the ages — showcasing Tampa Bay Brewing Co.’s “Reef Donkey” (ABV 5.5%), a likable American Pale Ale (APA) with a cool name that most won’t guess its meaning AND
Old Irving Brewing’s “Sir Reginald” (ABV 5.5%) a crisp Czech/Bohemian-style pilsner, hopped with 100% noble hops; a collab with Beard & Belly and Honey Pie for their 6th anniversary (and oh yeah, Rocky left it in the freezer too long — it was a little slushy but still tasty AF); the City of Chicago gets more FUs than a Trump rally; an secret revelation from a character from the pop-cult movie “Caddyshack”; the bums take LBK Florida by storm (the good kind); Paddy’s favorite local LBK haunts include ‘Shore’ on LBK, ‘Cask and Ale’ downtown Sarasota, and ‘Euphemia Haye and Haye Loft’ on LBK; and close with a shout-out to Eddie’s eldest (Miss O) as she continues to make us all feel older. Get some of E150 before Miss O gets another year older — it’s going too fast. All of this and some sketchy call-in sound quality, what’s not to like (that wasn’t a question).
Recorded on April 9th, 2026 at B.O.M. northwest headquarters ‘The Eagle’s Nest’ in Chicago, IL USA.
