Episode 115 - DWJ Christmas VIII (that's 8): Silence of the Lambs is a Comedy (JGN)

 Gather round in reverence for the greatest gift of all: a new Christmas episode from The Kings of Drink Mountain! Things get festive as a surprise fan delivers a special present for the holiday, including today's beverage. And "yesterday's" beverage, as it turns out, as Josh decides to enjoy it as only he can.

While the show might be focused on the highest-quality, most-trusted drink reviews you can find, that doesn't mean that it doesn't explore important issues. Enjoy a stocking full of topics like new finds in human anatomy, Korea's obsession with the name Jacques, TV's Huxxxtable family, and why "when I smell Brut, I smell my grandpa" all get plenty of discussion. Then cuddle up to the fireplace and explore why Josh really loves grammar, Ben's source of holiness, what it means to watch Die Hard, and why Christmas just might be canceled this year. And sip on some cocoa while we play Braindead Trivia and wax poetic about Hannibal Lecter's future in stand-up.

It all culminates with the star on the tree: the darkest ending to an episode ever (and it has been toned down!). That'll get you in the spirit!

So load up the sleigh and go for a ride to the North Pole (with a layover in Mexico) with America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast: Drinks With Josh!

Episode 114 - I Hate Hate: DWJ Thanksgiving V (CD Cherry Ginger Ale)

Put up your tree, light those jack-o-lanterns, and fire off those fireworks: it's Thanksgiving time! The Kings of Drink Mountain celebrate with topics ranging from jail time with Michael Bolton to medical cocktail stirrers, and from Karlmalone Harris to bad GPS systems. It's certainly something YOU will be thankful for. You'll also be thankful for Braindead Trivia, a declaration of the World's Dumbest Country, and a classic Thanksgiving Harangue (the real tradition around Drink Mountain). It's all here in the big 5th Thanksgiving episode of America's Favorite Podcast (New Zealand and Greenland too, but you guys will have to piggyback on American Thanksgiving, sorry).

Episode 113 - Sardines, WAP, and Living Your Truth (CO Sake Blueberry Hibiscus)

 Do you feel that? The magic in the air? No, it's not the Olympics, it's something more... Like a song in your heart, and the Kings of Drink Mountain certainly have a few! They're not afraid to let them out, either, as they live their truth while reviewing an offering from the Colorado Sake Co.

The magic continues as your hosts exchange the new gold standard of birthday gifts, Josh learns about Italians and tomatoes, and we all take in the wonder of the song Ben found to cover up some copyrighted music. Plus, plenty of discussion of that definitely-relevant-in-2024 hit 'WAP' because, why not? America's Favorite Podcast is nothing if not up with the times!

So grab a bucket and a mop, BE SURE TO VOTE FOR US for Best of Utah, and enjoy this episode of Drinks With Josh!

Episode 112 - Keep On Truckin' (Four Loko Jungle Juice)

 America's Favorite Podcast is loaded up and truckin' and definitely doing things that shouldn't be done; especially when this listener-donated drink hits their systems. That's right, Drink Mountain's favorite big load hauler, Trucker Tim, has generously sent in some Four Loko Jungle Juice for review. Amazingly, this is the boys' first exposure to one of the true inner-circle heavy hitters of the bum wine game.

In addition to their deep regret in having it taken so long to get to Four Loko, there's also some random Australia trivia, the brand new brilliance of "Serious Corner," a needed rant against today's cheap-o phone makers, and the single greatest voice mail message of all time. And we're certainly not prone to hyperbole here at America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast!

That's right, we're having our own Trucker's Rally! So load up on that go go juice and get the rubber to the road with this episode of Drinks With Josh!

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).

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

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!
