Board games. Beer. Pop culture. And a little drunken philosophy.

Ep. 60: Ad optimum? Bene

Maddy is sadly returning to her home in the sea, and we thought it best to honor her time with us doing what she loves best: tagging along while we slavishly create more podcast content. 
Thin Man Brewery Third Anniversary DDH Sour Ale (2):  Point Salad might be the simplest thing you play all year. It might also be the thing you play the most and the easiest buying decision you make all year in Dissecting Our Fun.
Falls City Beer Good Times Ginger Lime Shandy (4): We do a Sportsplainer/Nerdsplainer fusion on the joint madness of sports and dice superstitions.
Pohjala’s Rahe Imperial Gose-Style Ale with Sea Buckthorn, Vanilla, Salt, Coriander and Lactose (4): I’m surprised you’re reading this after hacking through that beer description. Anyway, we play We Make a Pair by throwing things into the transformative B-Hole.
Weston Brewing Company Father Mescan Bog Myrtle Ale (3): It’s a Bog Myrtle Ale! It’s a Fire Sale Ask Mixed Six! Crowdpleasing like it’s our job!
Thin Man Brewery Minkey Boodle Raspberry Sour Ale (4): Innervium has to name some sports stadiums. We can’t do worse than reality has here. 
Resurgence Brewing Co. The Surge New England India Pale Ale (4):  Finally Drunk Enough, we create our family mottos and critique the idea of having a subtitle for your clan. 

Ep. 40: The Scooby Snacks are Heroin

I already named an episode based off a bad hot dog pun…then Spencer did this rating system. Frankly, I’m at a loss. I’ve just been totally sabotaged. Let’s get this over with. The episode is pretty okay, I guess.

Blue Mountain Barrel House Series Dark Hollow: Imperial Stout Aged in Oak Bourbon Barrels: In Dissecting Our Fun, we’ve played Mountains of Madness and enjoyed it. We debate whether it’s really a Lovecraftian game at all, or if perhaps it is the best Lovecraftian board game.

Smartmouth Brewing Company Chaotic Neutral IPA: Armchair Director makes a case for movies destroyed by a single casting choice.

Kindred Spirit Brewing Strawberry Milkshake Ale: Ale brewed with fruit and lactose: In Sportsplainer, Spencer gives us nerds some talking points so we can camouflage ourselves in the endless Lebron James v. Michael Jordan debate.

Virginia Beer Co Wrenish Rye: In the tradition of The Toys That Made Us, James Burns Asks Mixed Six about the toys that made them.

Alewerks Brewing Company Paycheck Porter Robust American Porter with Rich Character: The Mixed Six Mock Draft has to cast a new version of Scooby-Doo using only rock musicians.

Evolution Craft Brewing’s Pine’hop’le Pineapple India Pale Ale: Where is your line for sharing? How do we draw it? Drunk Enough tries to examine the border before tripping over it.

Ep 39: Meerkat Smuggling

Please don’t forget to back Party Fowl: The Game of Drunk Ducks. It’s the boardgame that Mixed Six has been designing as far back as episode 11!

We’re back at it again with the high-octane, summer blockbuster of a podcast that you’ve all come to know and love. Prepare for all the thrills, chills, and spills your ears can handle.

Tallgrass Brewing Co.’s 8-Bit Pale Ale: In Dissecting Our Fun, we talk about our love for Flamme Rouge and the problem of the “closet” expansion. 

Scuttlebutt Brewing Co. Homeport Blonde Ale: It’s a Mixed Six FUSION. We combine We Make a Pair and Sportsplainer into “Sportsplain a Pair.” One host provides the sport; the other provides a drink to accompany it. 

Upland Brewing Co.’s Dragonfly IPA: As if the podcast doesn’t get enough of this, Ask Mixed Six want to know about our top 3 pieces of media we can’t enjoy due to pet peeves.

Sierra Nevada Hazy Little Thing IPA: In a return to our new writing segment, We’ll Never B’Author, the hosts overcome their profound biological, geographical, and historical ignorance to write the greatest period kung-fu film you’ll never see.

Abita Turbodog: In Armchair Director, we discuss the relatively new phenomenon of the aspirational streaming service.

Bell’s Brewing Expedition Stout: Finally Drunk Enough, Spencer and Caleb muse about a single piece of media they couldn’t have lived without.
