Live from the MCU!!!: Ep5.1 - Welcome to Stan the ManCave!!!

Welcome back to "Live from the MCU!!!" The time has come for the guys to make some pretty critical decisions that will affect their lives forever. And that's just the beers they decided to drink.

 In this episode, FahQ shows how a real hype man can really blow the roof off a party with only a jet pack, some tunes, and a miniature HD camera; The Stalker shows his true colors (and his apparent deep-seated hatred of Acapulco); Jim Sardonic does his absolute best to make the guys create as many ManCave t-shirts as possible; and the guys prepare for the ultimate showdown of their short villainous career. Plus, a touching tribute to Stan "the Man" Lee, who made every bit of this possible. All while getting so deep down the rabbit hole of beer that you will want to run out to the store and buy one for yourself. Don't worry....they'll be here when you get back. So strap in, grab a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the MCU!!!"

Beer(s) of the Show:

Lagunitas Willettized Coffee Stout

Ommegang King in the North Russian Imperial Stout

Odd Side Ales Nut Bandit Brown Ale

Welcome back to "Cave of Thrones!!!" The epic finale of the Season Six Finale has finally come to it's epic finale...finally.

 In this episode, CraigMakk explains why time travel would probably just lead to his murder-suicide by stoning if an iPhone is involved; Serious Jest explains why he's not really all that into incest; and the guys make the wackest examples of House Motto's you've ever heard thanks to the shitty Internet. Oh, and they also have some of their biggest Thrones-related disagreements yet all while enjoying some high-quality craft beers at 3am. This one you just GOTTA listen to. So grab a beer, strap in, and welcome back to "Cave of Thrones" for the last time until next season!

Cave of Thrones Season 6 Finale - ALL MEN MUST DIE! (Part 2)

Welcome back to "Cave of Thrones!!!" Obviously, there was a shitload to talk about in this episode, since the guys have already gone on twice as long as the episode actually was, and they're not done yet. It's not hyperbole that you should probably strap in for this episode.

 In this episode, CraigMakk digs deep into the psyche of one of his TV show heroes, a man who also threw a child from a window to protect his incestuous relationship with his sister (way to pick 'em, Makk); Jest explains why it's completely normal not to question your sister about why she conveniently forgot to mention that she called the cavalry (weren't you in the Marines, Jest??); and both guys discuss at length why GRRM is pretty much like Alec Baldwin telling a story during a camping trip. Oh, and the beer flows pretty openly in this one, so try to keep up. Strap in, grab a beer, and welcome back to "Cave of Thrones!!!"

Beers of the Show: 

Ommegang Take the Black Stout, which makes a repeat appearance as a very special gift from a loving cohost;

and Lagunitas CitruSinensis Blood Orange Pale Ale, because the hoppy burst will help you handle all the blood that will inevitably flow during this episode.

BONUS SHOTS:

Here are a couple pics of the Ommegang Game of Thrones Gift Pack that CraigMakk got for Serious Jest for Christmas, standing right next to the awesome Breaking Bad lamp that Jest gave Makk! Aren't they just the most adorable co-hosts?? Enjoy!

Episode 23 Part Three - The Madness Ends!

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" You're probably thinking, "Oh My God, does this episode EVER end?!" Yes....yes it does. You don't have to be rude about it.

In the moment you've all been waiting for, Serious Jest and CraigMakk finally complete their epic battle of Superhero Madness, but not before going full-on nerd and discussing who would win in a battle of elves versus werewolves. Oh, and they also get cursed to die horrible deaths by a vengeful. horrible witch spirit...you should probably just listen.

 In this episode, CraigMakk explains why penis is WAY scarier than spiders; Jest uncovers why he feels compelled to shout horrible things at children over the Internet; and they both drink quite a bit while interviewing a much smarter and more well-spoken guest than the two of them put together. So sit back, grab a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!"

Beer of the Show: Eventually they'll finally run out of that Game of Thrones Seven Kingdoms Hoppy Wheat Ale....but today is not that day.

Episode 16 - A Loss of Faith!!!

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" This show is all about beer, movies, and pop culture...absolutely ALWAYS in that order (the order of the last two might be negotiable). Which makes this episode even more equal parts thrilling and heart-breaking to experience as it unfolds.

In this episode, Serious Jest challenges CraigMakk to a very special battle of wits...and CraigMakk is left questioning everything he has ever believed in. Questioning his very faith in himself. Then he quickly tries to cover it up with jokes and lies, but the damage has been done. Serious Jest has destroyed "Live from the ManCave!!!" forever, and nothing will ever be the same.

You'll also get to learn why CraigMakk wishes he produced a podcast about rappers instead, Serious Jest isn't ashamed to reveal the true nature behind his "sexually ambiguous" jokes, and what this Soylent crap really is (shut it, Charlton!). Oh, and the drinking. Never forget the drinking. So sit back, grab a beer, and welcome to "Live from the ManCave!!!"...possibly for the very last time.

Beer of the Show: Who knows? CraigMakk sure as hell doesn't.

Episode 15 - ManCave Rising

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" What you are about to listen to is a very special bit of podcast history. This is the day the ManCave rose from the ashes, and returned to dominate your ears with sounds that are sometimes funny, sometimes just plain mean, but always loud and usually drunk. Welcome back...we missed you too.

In this Episode, CraigMakk explains why Father's Day is his favorite holiday (in Westeros), Jest decides a little racism is the best way to start the show (by accident, of course), and the boys get excited (bro!) over their brand new THEME SONG to celebrate their return (spoiler alert: it's really, really terrible). All while getting pretty drunk with the Men on the Wall...so it's pretty par for the course by now.

So thanks for joining us in our triumphant return to your iPod, and just sit back, grab a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!"

Notes from the ManCave: Don't forget to check out Dominik Omega & the Arcitype, the duo that brought you that amazing "Game of Thrones" hip-hop remix from this episode. Omega is also responsible for the incredible "Arya's Prayer" off the GoT mixtape album, "Catch the Throne."

Beer of the Show: Brewery Ommegang's "Take the Black Stout", a Game of Thrones celebratory beer that is as dark and terrifying as the men guarding the Wall.
