終局之道【加密終局】EP.61｜比特幣 ETF 牙起來！feat. 區塊鏈資深研究員 Austin▍科普一下，什麼是電子乞丐（e-beggar）
• 近期 L2 Scroll 中的核心成員，在 X（twitter）上攻擊專門嚕空投的空頭農夫們是電子乞丐
• 此舉引起社群廣大的迴響，諸多參與了空投的 KOL 們都對此言論不以為然
• Austin 認為，空投其實就是給予幫助項目方測試網路的「專業測試者」的報酬，請尊重一下
• 近期 AltLayer 發幣，空投的門檻非常嚴格，基本上就是乞丐們還要互相搶錢
• 但其實空投門檻提高對於加密生態系有正面影響，因為參與者確實需要提供價值，而不僅僅是為了領一波空投然後砸幣
▍關於嘉賓 Austin
• Austin 在 2017 年加入幣圈，一直都在做投資，也是大佬級別的資深研究員
• 在加入幣圈前，Austin 曾在銀行工作，但覺得太無聊因此加入幣圈
▍BTC 現貨 ETF 到底意義為何？
• 現貨 ETF 對傳統機構要持有 BTC 來說是很重要的一步。加密貨幣到現在仍然在法律、會計以及財務處理上仍處於灰色地帶，因此機構即便想持有加密貨幣，也會感到很頭痛
• 同時，在鏈上直接持有並管理加密貨幣也是讓機構很頭痛的問題，因為容易被駭。放在銀行裡的錢不見可以告銀行、甚至告政府，但鏈上的資產消失就是消失了
• BTC 現貨 ETF 解決了上述兩個痛點，讓機構合法合規持有 BTC 變得更容易
• 對現有的灰度 GBTC 來說，一直都存在流動性很差以及負溢價的問題，現貨 ETF 也是為其解套
• 總結來說，BTC 現貨讓機構更易於持有，並讓投資人有人可以告，超讚
▍BTC ETF 通過後，市場已經反應完了嗎？
• 先正名，以後大家都是美股 ETF 交易員，而不是幣圈炒幣仔
• 如果參考黃金 ETF 的過往，在通過的 6-7 年內漲了 4-5 倍，可見 ETF 對流動性及合規性有很大的幫助
• 灰度仍持有 60 幾萬顆 BTC，確實存在潛在賣壓，但在反應完後預期更多資金會陸續進入市場
• 開始看到傳統機構進場，例如富蘭克林基金陸續發布區塊鏈的深度研究，預期後續還會有更多機構加入
▍Alex 為什麼當初篤定 BTC ETF 不會過？下一個會是 ETH ETF 嗎？
• 監管機構的立場一直都是「不要犯錯」大於「做正確的事」，而加密貨幣的複雜性及其易被駭的特性使得風險較高，因此 Alex 當初認為不會通過，結果被打臉
• BTC ETF 之後，大家開始期待下一個會是 ETH ETF，也因此 ETH 不久前大漲一波
• Austin 認為 ETH ETF 應該不會馬上通過，距離 BTC ETF 有點太近
▍Austin 對接下來市場的展望
• 比特幣的區塊獎勵每四年會減半一次，也因此牛熊週期一直是四年，而今年馬上將迎來再一次的減半
• 今年的市場反彈跟過去週期所發生的一樣（2016 及 2019 都有反彈），但反彈後幾乎都會下跌，然後在減半的六個月後才是新一輪牛市的開始
• 財富密碼：2024 下半年會是開始佈局的好時機
• 看好的賽道：共識資產、以區塊鏈為基建的實際應用（Render Network、Hivemapper）、遊戲（Illuvium、Star Atlas）

2024-02-0141 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsStevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life (1976)We're officially kicking off our "golden era" with the most life-affirming album that mankind has ever seen. Two depressed white men have their character arcs challenged by a mixture of funky bangers and thoughtful ballads. Even Alex, the resident cynic of this podcast, is singing the graces of the good lord...what the hell is going on? The status quo has been interrupted, just as Stevie intended...we are blind, but now we see.

Through some cruel twist of fate we have found ourselves in the depths of what cinema has to offer. Austin's bright idea has brought us to the iconic Friday the 13th franchise, which sees us hopping into the fourth installment without seeing any of the previous entries, but we soon find out just how little that matters, Often declared as one of the series' best films, Part IV offers a familiar mix of teens...

The rare time of the year where we actually talk about a horror film is finally here, and it's starting to look like that might not be too uncommon after today. Evil Dead 2 was recommended on a whim by Alex (who hasn't seen it) to Austin (who strongly dislikes horror), and somehow we've both been changed through this weird combination of horror, comedy, rudimentary practical effects, and unbelievably creative filmmaking. We get into Sam Raimi's filmography...

Produced by Rob Cavallo
Our summer of nostalgia finally ends with a seminole album in the hearts of many that grew up in the 2000's era. We're here to talk about an album that capitalized on the resurgence of the "rock-opera", and exponentially expanded the theatrical elements of what Green Day did with American Idiot years prior. This is the longest period we've gone without recording, so the first 5-7 minutes is us catching up on Austin's recent trip to The Gorge in...

Continuing our journey through nostalgia and summer vibes, we've set our sights on everyones favorite Californian alternative-rock/funk band. With an already storied history and established repertoire, Red Hot Chili Peppers are approaching their 8th album with an optimistic lens after several years of lineup changes and addiction problems among the group.

For the first time in Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews history a director has appeared for the second time as a recommendation, and in some ways this feels like a full circle moment for the podcast - Nolan is Austin's favorite director, the first episode featuring our updated audio set-up was on Interstellar, and he is one of two directors (thus far) that we've ranked on the...

Alex decided that the best way to celebrate his upcoming 30th birthday (RIP) was to talk about a nostalgic film that just so happens to have come into existence precisely a month before he did. We're talking about one of the most iconic summer blockbusters of all time with Steven Spielberg's 1993 science-fiction/action-adventure film Jurassic Park.

Dir. Gavin O'Connor

You would think that an early 2010's MMA-centered sports-action-drama would reek of "sponsored by Monster Energy and Five Finger Death Punch" energy - but instead we get a (mostly) mature family-drama that thrives on its writing and performances. We get into what is somewhat of a wonky screenplay with a few too many ideas, some choppy fighting sequence editing, and some questionable logic regarding how sports combat are portrayed - but somehow it transcends a...

Wake up pretty girl, we're talking about David Lynch's 2001 mind-bending surrealist neo-noir mystery film Mulholland Drive. After months of waiting, Alex is finally forcing his "David Lynch era" upon the TDBR world, and coincidentally aligning with Austin's descent into hippy-ism with dream analyzation and transcendental meditation up for discussion. This genre-crossing film encapsulates soap-opera drama while also fusing itself with elements of noir, mystery, psychological-thriller, dark comedy, and...

When Nathan becomes captured by the rebels, his time in captivity is spent befriending their leader Katsumuto (Ken Watanabe) and becoming enamored by the samurai way of life - possibly enough to join them in their fight to preserve the culture of old...

Alex gets into his most recent trip to Denver Colorado where he did some sightseeing, saw The Shins live at Red Rocks (on accident), and experienced a...
2022-09-121h 12Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsWho Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)What's up doc? Here at TDBR we've been drowning ourselves in the nostalgia of classic cartoons. We're talking about the 1988 live-action/animation hybrid film Who Framed Roger Rabbit - directed by Robert Zemeckis with input by Stephen Spielberg, and starring Bob Hoskins, Joanna Cassidy, Christopher Lloyd, and the voices of classic Warner Brothers and Disney Cartoons such as Daffy and Donald Duck, Bugs Bunny, and Betty Boop! This movie with children's icons features murder, sex, stylish noir elements, and a storyline involving the corruption of the railway system in Los Angeles...huh? Austin gets into his vacation but mostly...
2022-08-311h 04Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsLogan (2017)Are you a fan of superhero's? Are you a fan of your beloved characters becoming alcoholics, unrepentant murders, depressed and sufferers of dementia? We certainly do! This week we're talking about the 2017 addition to the X-Men series 'Logan', directed by James Mangold and starring Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Dafne Keen, and Stephan Merchant. Thank god for the success of Deadpool, because without it we would have never been allowed to have more R-rated superhero films such as this. Prior to our film discussion, we talk about our recent INCREDIBLE experience seeing Bon Iver in concert (our souls were shattered...

The Teddy Brosevelt ShowTeddy Brosevelt Show | Episode #24 - Back to National + Global News, No More Local Austin CoverageMajor announcement on today’s show!We are returning this podcast back to its originally intended format: covering what’s going on nationally and around the world. It was never my intention to cover local Austin news on this show. It just sort of happened with the Urban Alchemy story. Next thing you know, I have 4 straight shows about Austin. I’ve gotten a ton of feedback over the past few days from friends who don’t live in Texas. They love the show and enjoy hearing my takes on what’s going on - but t...
2022-08-0552 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsAvatar (2009)Lots of big news coming out of this edition of the Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews podcast. Austin goes into detail about recently getting engaged, and Alex talks about his recent near-fatal run-in with a black bear while out enjoying the tourist trap of Gatlinburg, Tennessee…and that’s all before we even get into talking about James Cameron’s 2009 film Avatar aka Pocahontas in space aka the biggest fucking movie of all time (according to the box office). We get into the forgettable characters, bad dialogue, and substance-less themes, but praise the CGI effects and action in the third act. A fun...
2022-08-011h 03Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsThe King of Comedy (1982)Things are getting a little awkward on the podcast this week, as our film ‘The King of Comedy’ focuses on the most socially inept and un-self aware protagonist that we’ve covered so far, Rupert Pupkin! (not Pumpkin, or Puffer, get it right) This 1982 Martin Scorsese movie might have bombed at the box office and received lukewarm reviews at the time, but it’s comments on fame and public perfection are as relevant as either. We briefly go into our relationship with Scorsese as a director, and Austin incorrectly states that he was the man behind the camera on Shark Ta...
2022-07-241h 25Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsBo Burnham's 'Inside' (2021)There's nothing else quite like sitting down to watch a "comedy" special and then becoming incredibly existential. Oops! Bo Burnham's 2021 Netflix comedy/musical special has us revisiting the last two or so years of quarantine and the COVID pandemic, how fun! We're also getting into themes of technology, mental illness, and suicide throughout. Also fun! Anyways, we're pretty straight forward on this one, and all of our tangents are focused around the themes of the special. Austin threatens to kill Alex's children if he ever has them (think about the podcast, dammit), but Austin is also almost killed by...

2022-07-1255 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsTitane (2021)We thought this was gonna be a campy B-movie that we were gonna meme up and crack jokes with, turns out it only got us in our feels. Welcome to the film ‘Titane’, a French slasher-turned-body horror-turned wholesome family drama! Weren’t expecting that eh? This sophomore film by Julia Ducournau draws you in with its campy gimmick (she does what to a car?!) and turns it into a meaningful film about sexuality and human connection. Woah. Alex gives a post-concert report after seeing Elton John, and Austin celebrates his birthday on the air! Also this episode has a record THREE...
2022-07-041h 52Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsLuca (2021)After a small delay, we’re back to talk about one of the more recent Pixar animated films ‘Luca’, which was released on Disney+ last year. This is a film that Austin feels much more strongly about than Alex, who sees its place in Pixar’s film canon as somewhat ‘mid’. As for life-update stuff, Alex recently saw Bright Eyes in concert and has been playing a lot of Elden Ring. Austin has been getting into manga with the legendary series ‘Berserk’. We also go on a long-winded rant about the greed of Disney! All in all, a fun conversation, and we hope you

Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsEl Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (2019)Since Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews has started, Alex has been hoping this day would come - we're finally giving ourselves an excuse to talk about Breaking Bad on the podcast. We're reviewing 2019''s 'El Camino', a film that serves as an epilogue to the legendary show with Aaron Paul taking the spot as the leading man, although many familiar faces return here (most notably Jesse Plemmons, Kristen Ritter and Robert Forster). We also get into Alex's recent trip to Fort Lauderdale, Left-Hand Brewing's Key Lime Pie beer, telling Jeff Bezos to fuck himself, wasting gym memberships, and much more...
2022-06-161h 10Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsLife of Pi (2012)Never would I have thought that Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews would be tackling themes of religion on our podcast, but here we are! We're reviewing Ang Lee's 2012 3-D extravaganza 'Life of Pi', not THE Life of Pi, get it straight folks. This is a nostalgic favorite of Austin's, so he's able to gush about it, but to be fair, this movie has aged exceptionally well. We talk about the films special-effects, its great use of (mostly) unknown actors, and its religious themes. Also, we're drinking Rochester Brewing's Orange Creamsicle IPA.
2022-06-081h 09Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsKendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (2022) BONUS EPISODEWe've talked about him on the podcast for ages, but the savior (don't call him that) of hip-hop is finally back. This episode is our first impressions of the new Kendrick Lamar album 'Mr. Morale' & the Big Steppers', being recorded only five days after its release. We go through our pen-pal style text message reactions between the two of us, our relationship with the album DAMN now that five years have passed, and show our appreciation for the contributions from Sampha, Ghostface Killah, and Taylor Paige. Also, this was our second podcast episode of this night so we are...
2022-05-2551 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsDeftones - Koi No Yokan (2012)Things are going off the rails here at Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews - as our usually level-headed host Austin is getting lost in the champagne (hey that's Alex's gimmick!), but we keep it together enough to tackle the metal/alt-rock/shoe-gaze hybrid of 2012's Koi No Yokan by Deftones. Throughout the episode we talk about our takes on the different kinds of "drunk" through various alcohols, Alex's experience seeing the band open up for Incubus, Austin's disdain for poser Grateful Dead fans, the Neil Young vs. Joe Rogan feud that everyone has forgotten about by now, and our overall...
2022-05-171h 13Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsSwans - The Seer (2012)Cue the heavy breathing into the microphone, because we're getting into a band that will send even the most open-minded person running for the hills. It's the critically acclaimed 2012 album 'The Seer' by experimental noise-rock band Swans. This double-disc record that spans over two hours evokes the sounds of hell, apocalyptic visions, indoctrination by the occult, and the feeling of the serial killer gradually getting closer - but also manages to find moments to be beautiful and wondrous. We had a lot of fun with this one; Austin is trying to make sense of the whole thing, and Alex...
2022-05-111h 04Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsDune (2021)We’re back to talk about Denis Villeneuve’s 2021 adaptation of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi epic Dune. This is a masterful film in the technical department, but leaves us both feeling a little cold. This film stars Timothèe Chalamet, Josh Brolin, Zendaya, Oscar Isaac, Rebecca Ferguson, Jason Momoa, ‘big dick’ Dave Bautista, and Stellan Skarsgård. Austin is quite knowledgeable about this world as he’s read the book, but Alex is left in total confusion (what else is new). Austin gets into his experience being ‘the most drunk person in Key West’ while on vacation, and Alex has been playing Demon...
2022-05-021h 34Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsThe Northman (2022)As the legends have predicted, we're finally doing an immediate response to a brand new movie! This is the first time we've done a first-impression on a film, quite literally being thrown in front of the microphones right after getting back from the theater...and we're thrilled to be watching an arthouse epic historical drama on a 70+ million budget Robert Eggers directed film (Alex is still smiling). We also have a one-time intern in the form of Isaiah delivering us beers. Join us for the discussion of insane cinematography, the origins of Hamlet, and fantastic performances by Alexander Skarsgard, A...

2022-04-2735 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsDeath Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism (2003)This might be four months late, but MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you out there. This was recorded in late December so Alex and Austin are discussing the stress of the holidays, giving our thoughts after seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home, and drinkin' on some good ol' fashioned Great Lakes Christmas ale. Our topic is the 2003 album Transatlanticism by Death Cab for Cutie, and it's got both of us hashing it out. Alex is defending his nostalgic love for what he considers a near-masterpiece, while Austin is discovering it for the first time and is unsure about it. Much...
2022-04-161h 25Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsKung Fu Panda (2008)We're full of ramen and sippin' on some seltzers while reviewing the 2008 DreamWorks animated film Kung Fu Panda. Austin wholeheartedly believes that this series is one of the greatest trilogies of all time. and while I'm not sure if he's being hyperbolic or not, I gotta support my bro, right? This movie features an all-star cast featuring the likes of Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelie Jolie, Jackie Chan, and Seth Rogen; and also manages to be a faithful kid-friendly homage to kung fu films (the fights are good, seriously). Alex takes a backseat on this one to let Austin...
2022-04-081h 11Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsZodiac (2007)While the topic of this episode is centered around finding out the culprit of several heinous murders that occurred in the 1970's, Alex is more concerned with who the culprit is that gave him Covid recently. Yes - this episode was recorded shortly after Alex recovered from being sick, but he's alive, and he's trying his best not to be short of breath and foggy brained throughout the discussion. We're tackling the 2007 film Zodiac, David Fincher's methodical investigative-drama that originally had a poor box office run, but has since gained a greater following. How the hell did this movie...
2022-03-161h 09Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsMoneyball (2011)We're talking sports on this episode of Two Dudes, Brews and Reviews, although only kinda. Moneyball, the least baseball related baseball movie to exist, and it's all the better for it. Starring fantastic performances by Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill, as well as nice supporting roles by Robin Wright and Phillip Seymour Hoffman, we're both entranced by how this film is able to milk every ounce of drama from usually dry topics such as finance and mathematics (it's the Ford vs. Ferrari effect as Alex would say). Aside from that, we both have brief conversations about writing songs, director...
2022-03-011h 09Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsThe Thing (1982)Hello, our name is Two Dudes, Brews and Reviews and we have diabeetus. Maybe that's not such a bad thing considering we're likely not going to eat ever again after watching John Carpenter's 1982 classic The Thing, because we're FUCKIN' GROSSED OUT. This is easily one of the most disgusting movies we've ever seen: are gunshot wounds and stabbings too vanilla for you? Well we've got the movie for you then. However, it's not all shock value, as this film has a compelling who-done-it mystery at it's core, as well as some dramatic and comedic elements as well. Also, Kurt...
2022-02-171h 23Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsLooper (2012)Time travel, am I right? Alex and Austin are tackling a character drama with heavy sci-fi elements in Rian Johnson’s 2012 film Looper. We get into our recent experience seeing the Dave Mathews Band in concert, make some badly-dated comments about us seeing Brockhampton soon (RIP), and argue confusedly about the logistics of time travel as implemented in the movie. Joseph Gordon Levitt does a great Bruce Willis impression, and has a strange semi-romance with Emily Blunt. Also, we discuss the particulars of Bruce Willis’s contract (he MUST be a badass).

Building a FighterProgramming 101Science! Its real! Exercise Science: a passion of both Alex and Austin’s. How do we approach a practical method of exercise science within our training context. AKA: How do you write an exercise program. We talk about this and much more in this episode. Running through scenarios we define our thought process and how we get there. What should or shouldn’t be in a program? How many days per week should you train? Which exercise should we pick? We outline our approach to each decision made in programming. As always Austin and Alex agree on some points, but disag...

The most epic episode of Two Dudes, Brews and Reviews is finally here! It's what you've all been waiting for...I mean you didn't know it was coming but you've secretly wanted it, I think. Shit, where was I again? Austin is finally given the opportunity to dive into the music of David fuckin' Bowie, and does so with what are quite possibly his two darkest albums - Station to Station and Blackstar. Addiction, death, and Owen Wilson (ca-chow). Austin is also forced to describe his obsession with...
2022-01-201h 44Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsLil Dicky - Professional Rapper (2015)Back at it like wrapped plastic, Two Dudes, Brews and Reviews are here to talk about Lil Dicky's Professional Rapper. For Austin, this is a somewhat nostalgic trip down memory lane that hasn't aged well, and for Alex, it's a look back at terrible 2010's music trends. We had just gotten back from seeing Animal Collective in Cincinnati, so we're starting off a little drunk already, but we persevere as we go track-by-track on this album that's the length of a goddamned movie. We also see appearances from artists that we never thought we'd see on the podcast...

Combined, Building A Fighter specifically was a part of 8 different camps this year, programs for 1 college team, and a couple high school teams. This is only the beginning and be sure to...
2021-12-2840 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsSuicide Squad (2016)*sigh* I think this movie has broken us. For the following hour you will get to hear Alex and Austin slowly become enraged talking about what is quite possibly one of the worst movies from the last decade. Between the disorienting editing, non-sensical plot, and horrible script, Suicide Squad is a truly puzzling movie that should have been a slam-dunk. I guess second time's the charm (thanks James Gunn). In other news, Alex talks about his recent trip to the Van Gogh exhibit in Indianapolis, and we also RETROACTIVELY give a higher score to Jack & Jill for being more...
2021-12-211h 15Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsDistrict 9 (2009)We're drinking alien-themed IPA's for an alien movie on this episode of TDBR. Pour one out for all the prawns that died in vain. Today we're talking about District 9, a thought-provoking science-fiction film that despite being somewhat of an indie film featuring no A-list actors, managed to make an assload of money. I contribute that to it starring Borat...I mean Sharlto Copley as our main character Wikus. Alex plays devils advocate as usual and Austin plays Devils Angel-cate (???). Austin also discusses his opinion of other Neill Blomkamp films and Alex briefly mentions going back to the gym [editors...
2021-12-1353 minTwo Dudes, Brews and ReviewsThe Lighthouse (2019)HARK! We're talking about The Lighthouse, a mind-fuck of a film featuring Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson. Robert Eggers gives us two hours of men drinking, whackin' off, farting, and completely losing their marbles, and yet somehow manages to be a thought-provoking, hilarious, and tension-filled movie experience. In other news, we both talk about our most recent road-trips (this was recorded after 4th of July weekend), and Alex tells the story of how he ended up on stage at a drag show on his birthday. Also, we drank a Belgian tripel that neither of us can remember the name of...
2021-11-211h 29Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsJPEGMAFIA - All My Heroes Are Cornballs (2019)YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME...and you might be right, we have no idea who's listening to this. Regardless, Alex tries to throw Austin off of his game with our review of JPEGMAFIA's 2019 album 'All My Heroes Are Cornballs', and somewhat succeeds. While Austin has come around to Peggy recently with his newest 2021 album 'LP!', it's certainly not the case here. We go through the album track-by-track, but also go off on our usual tangents (just wait till our conversation about ASMR). Austin doesn't know what Keenan and Kel is (this fuckin' guy, am I right?), and Alex...

Aside from a few recording issues, we had a great time talking about Half Moon Run's album A Blemish in the Great Light, and we hope this encourages you to check out this incredibly underrated band. Aside from that, we discuss the Ohio Cicada apocalypse (this was recorded in the early Summer of 2021), Austin's fear of the Free Masons, and our thoughts on jello's legitimacy as a dessert.

Why We MarathonEpisode 24: Austin Prario and a Guest Appearance from his dad Dave PrarioAustin Prario was born with a serious heart condition and only has three chambers in his heart. Doctors told his parents seven weeks before his birth, and right around the Boston Marathon, that he would never be a varsity athlete or be able to run a marathon. The doctors however didn't know Austin's determination or that his father Dave was a runner too. So Dave decided to run the marathon the next year to support Boston Children's Hospital and he carried Austin across the finish line in one of the most memorable Boston Marathon photos ever.

2021-09-271h 01Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsIsle of Dogs (2018)Dogs - who doesn't love them?...and who doesn't love these adorable canines featured in an animated film that tackles themes of propaganda, political assassination, and pet genocide? Look, as fucking weird as all of this sounds, Wes Anderson oddly makes it work in this gorgeously animated dark comedy that features quite an incredible ensemble cast from the likes of Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Jeff Goldblum, Scarlett Johansson ,and far too many more to name. Another thing worth mentioning is we're drinking an amazing french toast-flavored stout from Roak Brewing called 'Devil Dog'. Highly recommended from the...

This episode also sees Alex and Austin discovering their love for La Fin Du Monde, the amazing Belgium Tripel by Unibroue Brewing out of Canada.

Quite easily the most tangent-filled episode in the history of TDBR, as Alex and Austin fight through drunken tangents to discuss the classic 1993 album Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins. We also talk about Alex's recent trip to Orlando, Austin's childhood traumatization from seeing Nirvana's Nevermind album cover on a jukebox, and so much more.
We had a lot of fun recording this one, so we help you enjoy it as well. Thanks for listening.
2021-08-211h 28Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsThe Beatles - Abbey Road (1969)Join Alex and Austin for their discussion on The Beatles swan-song Abbey Road, all while drinking on Goose Island's limited edition Bourbon County. A fun show as always - so thanks for listening!

Experience our conversations regarding multi-verses, space travel, and the race against time (now with the ability to hear it clearer than ever before!). With this being one of Austin's favorite movies, Alex obviously feels the need to play devils advocate (sorry Austin), but we both agree that there are elements of genius to be found within this film. A fun show as always, we...

Today we're talking about the film Promising Young Woman, an exciting and thought-provoking late 2020 release. Throughout the show we gush about how likable Bo Burnham is, discuss social media, and Austin explains his love for the Kung Fu Panda trilogy. Also, Alex is VERY hungover on this episode, but returns to human status after the episode gets going.

2021-06-191h 07Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsDaft Punk - Discovery (2001)For today's show, we're dissecting the immensely influential 2001 album Discovery by Daft Punk. While our fandom of the group differs between the two of us, we both agree that this is one of the best entry points for getting familiar with electronic/house music. This episode was recorded prior to Daft Punk's announcement that the group was disbanding, so Alex makes some predictions about their future that sadly have aged poorly.
Regardless of that, we thank you for listening and hope you enjoy the show!
2021-06-091h 13Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsI'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020)On this episode, Alex and Austin are dissecting the 2020 Netflix original film I'm Thinking of Ending Things, easily one of the most disorienting films either one of us have ever seen. While drinking Great Lakes' Elliot Ness and Urban Artifact's The Gadget, listen as we attempt to make sense out of the complicated symbolism featured in this movie until we both descend into drunken madness. In other words, it's your typical episode of Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews! Thanks for listening!
2021-05-211h 25Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsCommon - Be (2005)While sipping on some Old Fashioned's, Alex and Austin dissect the underrated gem that is 2005's Be by Chicago emcee Common. Throughout the episode we discuss the production by Kanye West and J-Dilla, Common's "sage-like" position in hip-hop, as well as our admiration of comedian Dave Chapelle. Unfortunately, this episode was plagued with some technical difficulties, with several great tangents (including Alex's J. Cole rant) being lost to the ether forever. However, it's still a great conversation, and a fun show as always! Thanks you all for listening.
2021-04-181h 08Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsRadiohead - Kid A (2000)For this episode of TDBR we're celebrating the 20th anniversary of Radiohead's divisive 4th album Kid A. Alex is our resident Radiohead aficionado, while Austin has prior experience with In Rainbow's and some tracks from OK Computer, which leads to an interesting dynamic between the two of us. We also draw comparisons between the album and the relationship of its themes (can technology be considered sentient life?) to the animated film Ghost in the Shell, all the while drinking some classic Guinness drought. A fun show as always, so check it out and thanks for listening!
2021-04-051h 21Two Dudes, Brews and ReviewsSpirited Away (2001)On this episode, Alex and Austin discuss the 2001 Japanese animated film Spirited Away. Directed by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, this film is often cited as one of the genre's best. During our conversation, we collectively swoon over the well-aged visuals and creative world-building, all while enjoying Japanese beer and some cheap store-bought Saké. Admittedly, Alex feels like he was thrown into the deep-end on this one with his relative inexperience with anime, so Austin takes the driver's seat for the most part.
