We saw 3 mass shootings in the space of a month, and Trump's crime family is enriching themselves and not even hiding it anymore. I thought August was supposed to be a slow month! Sheesh. We review Long Range Pilsner from the great folks at Revolver Brewing Co., and we wind up with a baseball segment that shows the Rangers are the most consistent mediocre team in the history of the majors... Enjoy!</p>]]></description>

We introduce a new beer from Sierra Nevada, which we both liked, and per usual we round out the show with our update on what's happening in the Major Leagues. Enjoy!

<description><![CDATA[<p>50 years ago, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first of 12 men to walk on the Moon. Yes deniers, they actually did it. Bill and I discuss our memories of that day, some of the benefits from the Apollo program, and then fire the retro rockets, come back to earth and discuss the unholy mess that is the Trump administration. We have a terrific beer for a change, then we discuss baseball, and darn it, the Rangers are playing like, well, the Rangers. Pop a cold one, sit back and enjoy!</p>]]></description>

Bill and I discuss the recent big celebration in DC where our President informed us of some never before heard of history of our revolutionary soldiers.

<description><![CDATA[<p>So, we talked so long on politics in the last recording we decided to break the Father's Day episode in two. Here's the Beer and Baseball segment, finally! Bill and I try Bikini Atoll, a Gose beer from the Manhattan Project Brewing company. Suffice to say we didn't care for it very much because of its saltiness and the citrus flavor. But, what do we know? Give it a try. Oh, there's some Baseball in here too. Enjoy!</p>]]></description>

What we do know, is the White House and Democrats in Congress are starting to gear up for what looks like a long, protracted series of court battles relative to getting the full Mueller Report along with the President's Taxes. Bill and I discuss the troubles at DHS, we review a new Dos Equis beer, and of course discuss Baseball's first few weeks of the 2019 season. Enjoy!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>The Two Old Guys are back with another episode talking beer and baseball. The brew reviewed on this episode is Salty Lady, a "Gose" style beer from the good folks at Martin House Brewing in Ft. Worth. We also report on a field trip to a local brewery, Turning Point, here in our great city of Bedford. As always, Bill and I bemoan the lack of progress with our beloved Texas Rangers and do a run down of the rest of the league. Enjoy!</p>]]></description>

It seems that if one wants to be a senior official at the White House, you must first be on Cable TV, as John Bolton and Larry Kudlow are the most recent members of the Trump administration. We say goodbye to Rex Tillerson, H.R. McMaster, David Shulkin, and who knows how many others. Trump is in fine form as the Mueller investigation heats up. So, jump in, there's a lot to get to. Also, Bill and I go on a field trip. We talk a little baseball as well. Thanks for listening!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Season 2 Episode 2 of Two Old Guys Drinking Beer! Well folks, he's done it again. Just when you think the President can't go any lower, he surprises us by doing exactly that. This time, he's trashing Africa and Haiti, and bemoaning we don't have more Norwegian immigrants. What, does he have a craving for Pickled Herring all of a sudden? Anyway, Bill and I discuss this, Michael Wolff's incendiary new book, "Fire and Fury", and we talk about a real leader, Dr. Martin Luther King, who had he lived would be 89 years old this year. Finally, we head south of the border for our beer selection this week and our first international beer! Viva Modela Negra! I hope you enjoy the episode.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Well, another two weeks into the Administration from Crazytown, and we have perhaps a more pervy candidate running for US Senate in Alabama than we did in last year's Presidential election. I'm talking to you Donald. Also, Bill and I discuss taxes, we have to talk about yet another mass shooting, and much more. It's probably a good idea to have a drink of something alcoholic while listening, because all the crazy will make your head hurt.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>We're back with a single episode of Politics, Beer and Baseball for this broadcast. Bob Mueller, Special Counsel investigating the 2016 election interference from the Russians and potential collusion from the Trump Campaign has filed his first indictments of his investigation. Of course President Trump wasn't happy about it. We talk about the indictments, talk about taxes, talk about General Kelly's less than stellar performance regarding the interaction with the widow of a US Soldier killed in Niger. </p> <p>On the lighter side, we discuss a new brew with a Rock and Roll connection from right here in Forth Worth, Texas. And, we're back with baseball talk. This time it's discussing the World Series where the Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros are having one heck of a series. So, pop the top of a cold one, settle in and give the episode a listen. Enjoy!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Well, a lot of stuff this episode. Bill and I discuss what seems to be a theme of Mr. Trump which is to undo the Obama Legacy. We talk about his refusal to certify the Iran deal, the continued assault on the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare), the rescinding of the Clean Power plan executive order from the Obama administration and much more. Unfortunately, we have to talk about another damned mass shooting, this time the worst in modern American History, where a lunatic with enough weapons to start a small war, shot and killed 58 people while wounding over 600. And if that isn't enough, we discuss a disgusting, fat, white, powerful man who evidently has been consistently sexually assaulting and abusing women for decades. No, not Donald Trump, but movie mogul, Harvey Weinstein. We discuss another local brew, this time from Denton, Texas, called "Bulletproof", and while we fully intended to talk baseball, your's truly screwed up the recording so we can't publish it this week. Not to worry, we substituted a small tribute to Tom Petty, who, on October 2nd, passed away from complications associated with cardiac arrest. So, pop the top of a cold one, give it a listen and let us know what you think.</p>]]></description>

The organization works with male and female inmates both while they are incarcerated and upon their release.

<description><![CDATA[<p>Well, it's happened again. We take a week off and the entire Trump Administration does another shuffle of resources. The "Mooch" is out, Reince is out, John is in, and Trump is once again shown to be the con-man that he is. Bob Mueller is on the case, a Grand Jury is impaneled in Washington DC and starting to deliver subpoenas. John McCain gives a big F.U. to the so called "Health Care" bill with a dramatic thumbs down in the Senate Chamber. </p> <p>Bill and I drink and discuss Shannon's Fire Brewed Irish Red, a very good Red Ale from the good folks at the Shannon Brewing company in Keller, Texas.</p> <p><br /> Finally, we round out the episode with an up-note. Our current most favorite Texas Ranger, 3rd Baseman Adrian Beltre joined the elite hitters in Major League Baseball by obtaining his 3,000th career hit. We discuss Adrian's feat, Yu Darvish's departure to the L.A. Dodgers, and the overall status of the major leagues.</p> <p>Join us won't you? First, as a warning, do yourself a favor and open a can of Shannon's Fire Brewed Irish Red before listening to the Politics segment. Bill and I wish we had, because we had a severe headache from all the nonsense we had to discuss.</p> <p>As always, thanks for listening.</p> <p> </p> <p>Dennis</p>]]></description>

Say hello to Anthony Scaramucci, a Harvard educated financier, broadcaster, and all around annoying person, who has an ego just as big as Donald Trump, and a mouth that is bigger. Anthony is the new Communications Director (can you say Joseph Goebbels?) who is coming in to shake things up and get rid of all these nasty leakers who are saying real in-fair things about the President, even though most of them are true. So, Sean resigns, is Reince out next? Bill and I get into all the usual nonsense going on in Washington. Talk about a pretty good beer, The Neato Bandito, from the Deep Ellum Brewing Company, and of course get caught up on baseball. Wow, we were gone for three weeks and look what happened. Enjoy the show folks.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>I've found there is nothing that can get a baseball fan's temperature up like picking the best players across decades. There are so many incredibly talented ball players to choose from. Well, get ready folks, because in honor of the upcoming 87th MLB All Star Game, Bill and I have decided to do just that. We pick from the best players since the 1950's and load up our teams with the talent that would make George Steinbrenner cry if they weren't on his team. We load up with Hall of famers, Home run kings, base hitting machines, pitchers with thunderbolts in their arms and then discuss what makes them so special. Join us for a trip to the ball park and reminisce with about players such as The Splendid Splinter, The Mick, The Say Hey! Kid, The Captain, and on and on. </p> <p>If you love baseball as much as Bill and I do, I think you will enjoy this episode. Let us know what you think, and Play Ball!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>From the Lakewood Brewing Company website: </p> <p class="beer--info">"In summer, Belgians head to the nearest beach, while Texans typically race towards the nearest source of shade. That's because the European sun is far friendlier than the fiery ball glowing over the Lone Star State. Combat the heat with our Zomer Pils. Brewed with Belgian pilsner malt and dry hopped with a combo of Lemondrop and noble hops, this traditional pilsner is light, crisp, and refreshing with a citrusy zing. So let that sun keep on burning."</p> <p class="beer--info">Bill and I agree with the notes from the Lakewood Brewing company. A little heavier than most Pilsners in my experience, more like an IPA. Give it a try!</p> <p> </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>OK, so here's our 4th of July Episode. We're breaking the usual format with an episode devoted to Politics. The reason? There is so much to talk about since our last broadcast. Tweets of a bizarre nature, a conspiracy theory that NASA has to deny, the ongoing saga of the Non-Care Healthcare efforts in the Senate, the suspicious request from a sinister sounding commission on "Voter Integrity", and finally, yet another mass shooting to discuss. There's so much to unpack, we're splitting out the beer and baseball segments into independent episodes. So, while you're grilling the burgers and the dogs, popping a cold one or two, getting ready to set off the fireworks (be careful!), tune us in and give this one a listen. Bill and Dennis hope you have a safe, happy and relaxing 4th of July. USA! USA! USA!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Episode 6. Sadly, we will be talking about the shooting that occurred in Alexandria, Virginia where a "nut with a gun", shot and injured several people while members of the Republican Caucus in Congress, their staffers and others were practicing for the annual charity game between the House Democrats. The shooter, evidently driven by some political rage, shot Congressman Steve Scalise, who is the House Majority Whip in the Congress. Thankfully, Representative Scalise is at a level in the House where he is assigned a security detail. Members of the Capitol Police, who were assigned to Representative Scalise were able to subdue and eventually stop the assailant from causing more injury. Bill and Dennis also discuss the "gun" issue in the country at large. </p> <p>Other topics covered: The ongoing saga of the Trump/Russian affair, some talk around Healthcare, and of course the most bizarre cabinet meeting in history. On the lighter side, Bill and Dennis review a new beer, Pukachev's Cobra, a craft beer from the great state of California, and finally, we discuss the national pastime and catch up on our Texas Rangers as well as taking a spin around the league. So, pop a cold one, sit back and enjoy!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>In this special episode, Dennis and Bill forego the usual blather about politics, beer and baseball and instead discuss the hallmark event of the 50th Anniversary of the release of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band by the Beatles. A masterpiece work, the album, released in June of 1967, set a standard for music production that is still influencing music today. Joining us to discuss the album is our very special guest, Judy Sherrard, Dennis' better half, who remembers hearing it for the first time on a broken stereo and not being quite sure of what to make of the record. We hope you enjoy the trip back to the year of Free Love, Flower Power and of course The Beatles' great work.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Holy cow! What a rash of headlines pouring out concerning Russians, the firing of James Comey, the appointment of Bob Mueller as a Special Counsel, Flynn taking the Fifth, Trump in Saudi Arabia, Israel and the Vatican. There is so much going on that it is difficult to keep up. Washington has ground to even more of a snail's pace regarding getting anything positive done while everyone is lawyering up, trying to clean up Donald Trump's tweets, and the disclosures of classified information to the Russians in the Oval Office. It's only been about 120 days since the Donald took the oath folks, it seems like 120 years.</p> <p>On a lighter side, we'll be reviewing our 2nd beer, Cotton Mill Gold Pale Ale, a local beer (at least local to us here in the Dallas, Texas area) brewed in McKinney, Texas by the good folks at Tupps Brewing. Light and crisp, Bill and I enjoyed a couple through the broadcast. It helped ease the pain from the political discussions. Also, we had two uninvited guests, my labrador mixes, Molly and Gracie, who decided to join the podcast for a couple of minutes.</p> <p>Our beloved and beleaguered Texas Rangers had a 10 game winning streak, and look poised to get back in the division race. Their strong level of play while three of the big stars are on the disabled list is a topic of discussion in the baseball segment. </p> <p>We hope you like Episode 3. Thanks!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Bill and Dennis delve into the President's first 100 days. Did he do as well as he says he has? We'll look at some "alternative data" that suggests otherwise. We'll also talk a bit about his cabinet selections, "The Good, The Bad, and The Woefully Inept". We'll introduce the first beer in our podcast series of rating beers according to our special rating system. Finally, we'll also talk some baseball, and discuss our home team, the Texas Rangers, along with the rest of the AL West division in depth. </p>]]></description>
