The best podcast ever created

Update Nov 2020: the boys are back! Visit SubBeacon.com and join their Patreon. Show your support so they keep making new episodes!

I look forward to each episode the way people in the 90s looked forward to Seinfeld each week.

The correct way to consume is to listen on Thursday morning, then go watch the “movie review of the week” on Friday, then re-listen again on Saturday.

I would happily pay $100/yr to get this podcast!

Best “dudes chatting” podcast out there

I’ve been listening to these guys for a couple of years now, and they never failed to entertain me until they vanished with no new episodes since September and no explanation of when they’ll return. 😢 Please come back! My playlist has been much too serious of late.

Guess it’s gone?

Loved this podcast, listened to it every week. Guess now that JVL and Sonny are with the Bulwalk they’re not allowed to come out and play with Vic anymore.
