Come along with us as a gun nerd and a beer nut talk about cultural/political issues as well as review some local alcoholic drinks we enjoy. We believe that Christ is Lord over all things so we see nothing as off limits to discuss. While you may not agree with everything we say, maybe something that is said sparks a thought or challenges you in some way. We don't mind laughing at ourselves either.

Bye to Beto, Mormons in Mexico, and Kuyperianism in Action
After much too much time since our last episode we launch back into politicians that you may or may not have heard about, a beer that even Josh can taste, and how Christ's Lordship impacts all aspects of our life. Next episode will be a much anticipated one with the owner and brewmaster of 5 Rights Brewing of Marysville. We are stoked!

Suppressed Shooting, Loony Gun Laws, and a Hero with a Gun
This episode we talk about our experience shooting a couple suppressed weapons that our guest brings along. Our guest is a gun nerd in his own right and brought some fun hardware to play with. Specifically we discuss an Aero .300 Blackout AR Pistol with a Rugged 7.62 suppressor and a Heckler and Koch 9mm with a Yankee Hill Machine suppressor.
We also get into how archaic laws can result in ridiculous hoops to jump through and what good guys can do with those evil black shooting things.
Our palate was please with a glorious IPA, Maiden the Shade by Ninkasi Brewing and a piney IPA sensation by Silver City Brewery, Saint Florian IPA.
