Howard Blues is the man with too many hobbies. While podcasting may be his newest one, he also attempts to enjoy board gaming, painting models, playing video games, and writing. His reputation is that of a silent historian with the occasional one-liner, but he is excited to talk about hockey, Star Wars, board games, and his newest adventure fatherhood.

Big Deck Energy
Beer, Blues, and BS: Buckle Up for Big Deck Energy and Bad Brews!
This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, Mark Kidder and Howard Blues are joined by the one and only JS Gunslinger, broadcasting live from the road! Get ready for some wild tales as JS dives into his latest adventure: deck restoration! Prepare for some serious Big Deck Energy as JS details the joys (and tribulations) of DIY projects.
But the fun doesn't stop there! In true Beer, Blues, and BS fashion, the guys tackle a cornucopia of topics in this week's Tavern Talk. Brace yourselves for discussions about freak snow on Memorial Day weekend, the perils of unexpected blows to the groin (because, ouch!), navigating North Dakota's nighttime roads, the recent fire in Cooperstown, and a visit to the Ronald Reagan Minuteman Missile State Historic Site.
Speaking of adventures, JS also reveals his newfound fascination with Ham Radio, proving there's no stopping this modern-day gunslinger. Plus, the guys can't resist offering their predictions for the highly anticipated Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight.
And since it's a holiday weekend, here's a heads-up for all you wrestling fans: Kidder and Howard will be taking a break from their usual WWE King and Queen of the Ring and AEW Double or Nothing coverage. Don't fret though, because to fill the void, they'll be locking in their predictions for these mega-events!
As always, the episode wouldn't be complete without some brews and some blues. In What's on Tap?, someone gets an unfortunate reminder of the dangers of venturing into unknown beer territory.
So, grab your favorite beverage, crank up the blues, and settle in for another hilarious episode of Beer, Blues, and BS! You won't want to miss it!

This week on Beer, Blues, and BS, the tavern doors get a double dose of excitement with LCL Geek and JS Gunslinger joining the fray!
Unleash the Hops! Mark Kidder kicks things off with an Avalanche playoff update, while Howard recounts a hilarious (and slightly disastrous) beer run. But the real adventure begins with Storytime with Howard, where a voicemail auto-transcript malfunction leaves everyone in stitches.
Remember When? The boys take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the early days of the podcast and their (unsuccessful) attempt to have Google generate transcripts.
Dad Joke Delights! Howard's back with a fresh batch of groan-worthy Dad Jokes to tickle your funny bone.
Mow-Down Blues: In Homeowner Blues, lawn-mowing woes take center stage. Geek tackles his lawn for the third time, while Howard shamefacedly admits his remains untouched.
Mystery on Tap! The much-anticipated arrival of JS Gunslinger brings not just himself, but also a mysterious concoction for What's on Tap? And with all four regulars present, it's finally time to unveil LCL Geek's secret Mystery Shot!
Hold on to Your Steins! Brace yourselves as the crew takes a wild ride after tasting the Mystery Shot. Prepare for hilarity, chaos, and who knows what else as the episode descends into full-blown mayhem!
