Lee and Jerry start 2025 off with a nice big beer tasting of Trader Joe's brand JosephsBrau Winter Ride Double Bock Lager. Then it's back to the 1970s at Whitehall Coplay Middle School in Whitehall Pennsylvania. They continue their "lower" education chronology with more readin' and writin' and square dancin' and kung fu fightin'!

Seriously, you just can't make this stuff up. It Didn't Have To Happen! Hop on!

Lee and Jerry are joined by their good friend, Dr. John Vlattas, for a triple beer tasting and a nonsensical deep dive into the world of 900 numbers from the 1980s and 1990s. Everything from the bizzare "1-900-Cry" to "Granpa Al's Lewis' Junior Vampire hotline". They also taste and review Great Lakes Brewing Christmas Ale, Souther Tier's 2Xmas and The Mad Elf from Troeg's. Hop on in!

In their 7th episode, Lee and Jerry sample Celebration Ale by Sierra Nevada. Then, a special guest dials in to honor Friday the 13th. Topics include "Oh crap, we started a fire!" and "Smokey The Bear of West Catasaqua". They also discuss past vehicular mishaps, including the drive train pole vault, the Mrs. Smith's pie truck incident and a very peculiar "low speed chase" through Whitehall. In keeping with the theme of mayhem, the discussion turns to particular old school punk rock concerts from the early 1980's, including The Plasmatics in Scranton, Dead Kennedys in West Catasaqua and a memorable Halloween concert by Public Image Ltd. Hop on in!
