B.O.M. - Episode 0111 - Missing In Action

Send us Fan MailThe Bums are back in the rail yard with Season 4, Episode 0111 -- having lost not one but two podcast episodes at the hands of a missing “micro” SD card (not called “micro” for nothing); nonetheless, we’re back in the game with the first half jumping into HOCKEY — that’s right — NHL HOCKEY — as the Panthers avoid disaster; NHL draft highlights (Russians are finally wanted for something); the NBA draft wraps up as the Chicago Bulls get a home boy with championship basketball blood in his veins (courtesy of Lithuania); the U.S. college teams have lost their mojo as Europe makes it’s presence felt; Paddy drops a great IDNKT segment—Father and Son edition; the Summer Olympics are close at hand, but without modern western, modern conveniences (green-lessness is imported); and the Chicago Cubs erase more history with the disappearance of staple buildings/signage (Eamus Catuli Non Semper).The back half pops off with another universally famous beer review, as Mikerphone Brewing from Elk Grove Village, IL kicks out ‘Hey Mambo, Hey Mambo Italiano’ (ABV 5.0) a super crisp, Italian style Pilsner that would nicely pair with pizza (go figure); Chicago’s mayor Brandumb is in hot water again; Rocky’s collection of golf shoes expands by one (at the hands of his lovely wife); the Galena tapes are reviewed during Father’s Day escapades; Rocky and Paddy chase golf course ghosts; and close with a Riot Fest locale relo.   Better get some now, before Eddie and Rocky lose another episode.  Recorded on June 26th, 2024 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters ‘East Bunker’ in Chicago, IL USA.
