Episode 67 - Big Ben's Big Episode

Ohhhhh yeaaaahhh! It's here! Put on your robe, lay back in your favorite recliner, strike up a smoke (if that's your thing), and let the immensity of Big Ben wash over your mind, body, soul, and ears! In an episode that we swear Ben was not drunk, high, or otherwise intoxicated for, the boys try out some birch beer. Well, Ben does. Josh is too worried that the situation is devolving into a Stephen King novel. Speaking of kings, the Kings of Drink Mountain of course provide some Big Ben-dead Trivia and beverage reviews, but at what cost? Does Josh survive the show or does the Bigness overwhelm him? Does Ben explode from the sheer force of all the Ben-ness or does he go Super Benyan, DBZ-style? Will the kingdom come crashing down? All will be revealed in this BIG episode of Drinks With Josh, with your host: (Big) Ben!

Episode 66 - Al Capone vs. Gandhi (TV)

The Kings of Drink Mountain return with an amazing treat for you: a LISTENER REQUEST EPISODE! Mike wrote us and suggested we try the "best vodka on the market," but he should let us be the judge of that. Along the way, Josh and Ben explore many of the wonders around us, like the Safari Desert, a new way of ranking presidents, fields of study related to the birds and bees, Babe Ruth's time on the Yellow Sox, and the ultimate question: Who wins: Al Capone of Mahatma Gandhi? Plus, a fundraising plea to help us solidify our place as Greenland's Favorite Podcast. With such a title comes a responsibility to give back! We've also got Braindead Trivia, a horrible-in-concept snack, and some new factions for the Harry Potter universe. So strap yourself in for not one, not two, but three reviews involving today's drink. We're going hard, son! We're Drinks With Josh!

I guess the boys are gonna..."take a shot" at this episode. (sorry)

First it was Dainty Cups, now we introduce the incredibly classy Plastic Goblets!

Getting all the accoutrements ready for the big show.

Mike says this is the "best vodka on the market." Is he right, or just trying to get one over on the Kings of Drink Mountain?

If you actually look up the hat, it's not offensive, but it sure seems offensive...

A blurry picture of one of our wondrous mix-ins.

Yes, this exists. Yes, Josh spent money on them.

I mean, what do you even say to this?

This would be much cooler if it were the Gummi Venus de Milo.

Or really anything else.

Our good friend, President James K. Polk. Or Rad Johnson. Whoever.

Episode 65 - Creamy Dictators (CMP)

America (and Greenland and New Zealand)'s Favorite Podcast is always highly offensive, so why not have a drink that is equally so? That's right, the Kings of Drink Mountain have found one of the most offensive beverages out there and, of course, can't wait to sample it. Will the taste approach the greatness of the show or will it also offend? Josh and Ben will tell you, right after they discuss Josh's latest horrible business idea, public domain porno, petty theft, and play one of the saddest rounds of Braindead Trivia ever. Seriously, you'll feel bad for Josh after this one... Wind up the victrola, slap in the 8-track, cue up the minidisc, or do whatever you need to do to listen to this cream-filled episode of Drinks With Josh!

Yes, that's really what it's called.

Josh's "sweet" bolo tie...

A creepy, yet badass, yet terrible drawing Ben made. This guy is definitely about to cream some people.

A picture of the soda where we...took it from behind! Sexy.

Josh modeling the tie for everyone. No doubt he spent the rest of the day getting laid.

Episode 64 - High Uintas aka I Wish Ted Bundy Lived Next Door

Roll out the red carpet and sound the trumpets! The Kings of Drink Mountain have retaken the throne! This time, Ben is fed up with Josh spreading vicious Twitter rumors about him refusing to do beer shows. Friends of the show (hi, Bum Wine Bob and Lost Episode Ben, ya dicks!) piled on and even a local brewery got in on the act. Ben is now calling everyone's bluff and Uinta Brewing's reputation is on the line. The boys have a sampler of four beers from them to see which is best. Braindead Trivia returns, along with a new companion game that we'll just call Sexy Hat. It's even worse than it sounds. Then there's an amazing display of patriotism as they salute a truly horrifying version of the American flag. Plus, the proper way to drink beer (DAINTY CUPS FOREVER!), Josh's preferred neighbors, the worst fish imaginable, and a new way to eat cheese bread. Get all this (and more! It's amazing, we know!) on America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast: Drinks With Josh.
PS-Do you think the secondary title will bring in the true crime fans? We're hoping so.

Living that DAINTY CUP Life!

Josh examines his all-American rubber at his all-American table, while America's Pastime plays in the background. What else would you expect from America's Favorite Podcast??? (We blurred the game since we don't have express written consent from Major League Baseball.)

Two of our four Uinta selections in their proper DAINTY CUPS. Plus, tasty peanuts!

Yes, Josh really did take time out of his life to do this...

It's black lager vs...

Hefeweizen! Whose cuisine will reign supreme, or something?

Josh with our semi-professional looking mics, ultra-professional looking DAINTY CUP, and no-at-all-professional looking flag condom.

Episode 63 - DWJ BLOs

Settle in, royal court, your Kings (of Drink Mountain) have taken the throne! Or at least the "campsite." Yes, Ben and Josh return to review a new-ish alcoholic beverage. Ben saw it in the store and was laughing at it, when Josh jumped in to defend it. So Ben just made fun of Josh, instead (as usual). In addition to another expert drink review, there's World Cup chat, Josh's horrendous "Ceiling Hitter" t-shirt line, and not one, not two, but three of the weirdest hypotheticals you'll ever hear (all taken way more seriously than they deserve). Tied in with this, we've got the "Best Cars to be Run Over By 2018 Roundup," because we are willing to do in-depth journalism. We've also got Ben saying quite possibly the worst thing he's ever said on the show while Josh explores his dream remake of the 25+ year old movie, 'The Wizard.' Yes, the Nintendo movie. It's so bad. But is the drink? Find out on this episode of the Comfiest Podcast Around: Drinks With Josh.

Episode 62 - Michael Bubly

Sound the horns and prepare the thrones! The Kings of Drink Mountain have returned! This episode puts them to the test as they face a horrifying new beverage foe. Meanwhile, Josh is just horrifying, whether it's his taste in music at the grocery store, his desire for a certain bit of Napoleon "memorabilia," or his question about whether food can ever be good if it's...no you'll just have to listen. Speaking of Napoleon, Josh comes up with a great new sitcom idea. Are you listening, Hollywood? Our bank accounts are open to your money! They're also open to a certain beverage maker's money, as we initiate 3 lawsuits in the course of the show. We've also got Braindead Trivia, a round of Who Would Drink This?, and a new game where we try to come up with a new name for today's beverage. On top of all that goodness, there's a "special treat" at the end (if you can make it that far). So grab a seat and listen as Ben and Josh suffer through their newest drink, so you don't have to. It's just the kind of caring, giving people they are.

Ben found this at Graywhale and thought it was a cool random find. The box with the art glued to it is a great touch.

These are a lot more menacing than they look.

We apologize for the blurry picture. We'd feel worse about it, but they should apologize for the terrible drink first.

Episode 61 - Billy Clubs For Mother's Day (IP)

America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast returns to explore the wonders of the Kings of Drink Mountain's other home: Utah. Join them as they partake in the splendor of...what? National parks? No, not that crap. We're talking about an old soda fountain favorite from the Intermountain West! Plus, we hear all about Josh's thoughtful and caring Mother's Day gift, Ben taking over "blocking" duties with local felines, and a gripping locally-themed edition of Braindead Trivia. So grab your Mom, settle in by the old Victrola, and relax to the soothing sounds of the Comfiest Podcast Around: Drinks With Josh, with your host, Ben.

In addition to no discernible scent, it appears to have no discernible color.

This is the best Ben could do with his "photo shoot." Really. Here's the baton handle and the drink and a messy floor. Yay!
