B.O.M. - Episode 0143 - Mind Reader

Send us Fan MailThe bums close out Season 5 with Episode 0143 — still walking on air after the Bears blow-out victory vs. woeful Cleveland; Week 16 injury report reads like a M.A.S.H. unit heading into Midwest Super Bowl Saturday vs. the Fucking Packers; Kevin Warren gets lit up like a Christmas tree (stupid ploy or not); Rocky has a Plan B that may surprise you (but not Paddy); speaking of Paddy, he hammers down a TNF IDNKT segment; NFL week in review is littered with torn ACLs; Old Man Rivers doesn’t die on the field; and close the top as TJ Finley is the poster child for what’s wrong with JV football.The bottom gets awfully boozy with a first ever TRIPLE review, featuring  Mikerphone Brewing’s “La Cuca Negra” (ABV 5.4%), a Mexican Style dark lager; OIB’s 2020 Krampus Cookies (ABV 13.0%), a 12-year Barton Bourbon Barrel-aged Imperial Milk Stout w/ vanilla and chocolate nibs (yummy), and “Drumshanbo Single Pot Still Pinot Noir Cask Finish Irish Whiskey” (ABV 43% / 86 Proof), a very unique drop from The Shed Distillery in Drumshanbo, Ireland — we’re drunk AF; Rocky gets a new pillow and also bemoans Spotify’s Year in Review results; and close with a celebration of life for Robert Norman ‘Meathead’ Reiner and Michele Single Reiner (very sad— and also fuck DJT).   Better unbox the final podcast of the season before the Grinch steals it.Recorded on December 18th, 2025 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters, Paddy’s Southside Cave, in Chicago, IL.
