Drunk Principals Gone Wild

Welcome in, thirsty friends! Greg is back from his travels, Flex is deep into his late-night Instagram scroll addiction, and Brian is here proving once again that he might actually be related to Greg (which is both alarming and hilarious). This episode is packed with road trip beer adventures, brewery letdowns, and a deep dive into the tragic fate of expensive hype beers. Plus, we’ve got some ridiculous Booze News—including an Arkansas law change that actually makes sense and a Florida story that is pure Florida Man energy. Grab a beer, sit back, and let’s get into it!Beers We’re DrinkingGreg & Brian are drinking Shadows of the Dead by Beer Zombies Brewing Co. Flex is sippon on Nemean, a triple IPA from Mortalis Brewing Co.Greg recounts his Vegas trip where he didn’t step foot on the strip but did fall into the hype trap of Beer Zombies Brewing.
