Episode 111 - 10th Anniversary Challenge (aka The REAL Letterman)

April 7th. The most important day on the calendar. That is Drinks With Josh Anniversary Day (like you needed to be told), and this year is a special one, as we mark a decade of America's Favorite Podcast! In honor of the day, the boys present your ears with a true test: can you survive this dumpster fire? Challenge yourself (as your hosts did) with 10 drinks, a plethora of call ins, endless top ten lists, Braindead Trivia, a nose full of miniature Andes mints, and so much more. Over 3 hours worth, in fact! Good luck!

Thanks to our good buddy from Plum Forest Podcast for the cold open, and a shout out to Freesound user juicyarmstrong for the amazing sound effect (you'll know the one).

Ten years in, but we're not getting lazy

Cup(s) at the ready

The 1st anniversary challenger enters the ring

Not just a drink podcast, but a piece of history, or something

These guys suck (Mountain Dew Affair)

It looks a lot like the soda...

O nectar beloved, delighted are we to meet anon

The world tour begins

And we already can't pronounce anything

Thanks for making us look stupid, Lithuania

Off to Germany; does this taste like burgers???

No idea what all that is supposed to be

Feeling better about our Lithuanian pronunciation after seeing this

Do we get thrown in jail for disrespecting the monarchy if this sucks?

This doesn't look very Polish here

Back home, but will we regret coming to America?

This feels like it's trying too hard

Back on the road (well, plane [well, boat steerage]) and off to Japan/Nihon/Nippon

Solving all our health problems in 2 oz

Ben still insists that these guys should've sent us a review bottle

Is Josh drunk here? YOU be the judge

Putting away the booze just like George Herman; he'd be proud

Ten years in, but we're still dumb as hell

Episode 110 - This Episode Has Been Sanitized (SHD RLV)

Don't worry, everyone. You will not catch covid nor the herp, as "This Episode Has Been Sanitized." Just not from foul language or terrible references. Those are there, as always! This time, America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast keeps it local with a review of a hometown beverage offering. Plus, a quick jaunt around the world with a mini review of a supposedly Aussie treat, that somehow does not contain vegemite. Meanwhile, Josh considers his career options after a job offer from WAY up on the food chain, and the boys realize what their Senator has almost certainly been writing in his spare time. All this nonsense, plus a lot more (nonsense) is waiting for you, courtesy of the Kings of Drink Mountain!

Episode 109 - DWJ Gets Religion (A&W Zero Sugar Root Beer)

 Drinks With Josh may be The One True Religion (among many other things), but that doesn't mean they cannot learn from the faith of others. America's Favorite Podcast gets immediately in touch with the local religion by trying out a no sugar, no caffeine soda; will it also be no taste? Speaking of no taste, the boys also classlessly discuss everything from tithing to Mormon board games to why Asians explode. No, that last one isn't especially religious, but there's more to this world than just sitting in church, right? Plus, a VERY special guest makes a surprise appearance, just as Josh performs a VERY Sancred (no, we didn't misspell sacred) rite. Will the powers above approve of the boys' foray into spirituality, or will the recorder work in mysterious ways? Find out in this episode!

Episode 108 - America's Favorite Beverage: A DWJ Halloween (Pumpkin Spice Latte)

It's what? Nine years into this thing? And we've finally got an official Halloween episode! America's Favorite Podcast returns with America's favorite (fall, basic) beverage: Starbucks' own Pumpkin Spice Latte. A beverage perfect not just for Halloween, but fall in general. One that inspired the boys to slap on some Uggs, buy the most gorgeous (yet basic) sweater-dresses they could find, and drop some leaves into their cups. Things get spooky as they drive the dragula straight through topics ranging from the best Halloween costume ideas you'll ever hear to Josh's latest app pitch to Silicon Valley to Bill Cosby's failed business venture. Plus, a review of not just the drink, but a very basic, yet manly snack. So stop turning tricks and get into our treats with a pumpkin-spiced episode of Drinks With Josh!

What heavenly delights lurk inside?
It's KIND OF fall, but something's missing...

Episode 107 - Gallo's Humor (GF Chardonnay)

Well look at this! A new episode of America's Favorite Podcast! Remember when you used to get these every couple of weeks? (Hopefully not.) Speaking of remembering, do you remember when the Kings of Drink Mountain lent their considerable talents to the Plum Forest Podcast? They sure do. Remember when they tried polvoron? Well, it's back baby! And with a rousing game of Guess the Flavor! And speaking of remembering again, remember when Ben used a terrible "speaking of" segue about 45 times in this episode? You will!

This show isn't all about the past, though. In fact, it gets downright futuristic as the boys plan their next vrbo airbnb timeshare youth hostel road trip stay on their robot phones. Robot phones which are then asked horrible, horrible things. Josh is lucky AI can't come for him yet... Then the boys dial up their "phone a friends" to settle THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION OF OUR LIFETIMES. Shout out to Tangents With Toby for saving the day! Oh yeah, and there's a dumpster fire of a drink in there somewhere too. So let your beverage heroes suffer through their libations while you get nothing but laughter vibrations in this episode of Drinks With Josh!

Episode 106 - Shingles! (UCC Coffee with Milk)

The Kings of Drink Mountain have finally returned to the throne after a long period of hedonistic bacchanalia! It's good to be kings! Or maybe they're just lazy and didn't record, and even when they did, didn't edit it for ages. Whatever the case, America, Greenland, New Zealand, and Japan (!?!)'s Favorite Podcast is back! And rejoice in it, because not only is there a new show, but the drink pulls off a feat the likes of which has not been seen in quite a while! 

Meanwhile. there's Utah's beloved bat-phone restaurant, Josh's secret life as the Middle Eastern Yogi Bear, and an alarming new way to contract shingles that you'll want to be sure to avoid. Braindead Trivia's also back, because you wouldn't know what to do with yourselves without it. Just admit it. So sit back and relax with The Comfiest Podcast Around (there's an old one for ya), because you never know when there will be another...

Aww yeah, you all know when it's from!

Episode 105 - The Food, Not The Man (Mogen David Concord Wine)

Even the best beverage experts out there can still learn a few things about the field. Case in point, the Kings of Drink Mountain learn a very important lesson about dipping snacks in beverages while reviewing a classy, upscale version of their favorite bum wine. Let's just say that Freaknasty would be proud of them.

Speaking of nasty, make sure to keep the kiddies and the easily offended away, as America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast gets a bit edgier than usual while discussing the royal family, unsafe gummy snacks, a DWJ member going (podcast) solo, and Josh's unseemly Halloween costume. Of course, good old Braindead Trivia is along for the ride, as well as another of the world's most trusted beverage reviews. It all culminates in one of the funniest moments in the history of comedy. Yes, it's that good. When has this show ever exaggerated about anything? So come along as I dip, you dip, we dip in this episode of Drinks With Josh!

Ah, Percy Pig, how you've been missed...
They were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should!
