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 S6:E0152, just in time to recount the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby (Eddie gets paid AF); the Chicago Bears roster is taking shape between draft picks and offseason acquisitions; Bears schedule is no cake walk; the Canucks re-appear for a cameo (Rocky can’t hang with the hoser talk); and end the top with the fact that nobody gives a flying fuck about the NBA or NHL championship series’ (period).
The back nine zips into another intergalactically infamous beer review, starring Skokie, IL’s Sketchbook Brewing and their “Pink Sweater” creation (ABV 5.5%), a red rice American pilsner that is light and has plenty of flavor for clobbering this summer; all Laws aren’t created equally; Hollywood’s 30% rule is a thing; Seal Street Justice is effectively applied (FAFO department); Paddy’s running shoes are super comfortable at the expense of being ugly AF; the black hat fuckers are getting better and bolder (be vigilant); Customer Service’s circle of hell; and end with a plea for pleasant Memorial Day weather (thanks to all service members, past, present and future). Get an earful before the tinnitus sets in.
Recorded on May 14th, 2026 at B.O.M. northwest headquarters ‘The Eagle’s Nest’ in Chicago, IL USA.
