The Army of Drunks

2016 has been one big punch in the dick, so why not wrap it up with Charles Dickens Punch, a.k.a. The Dick Punch!  As we wait for Santa to arrive, the Army gets loaded on a punch recipe from the author of "A Christmas Carol" himself.  We also play "Ask a Drunk Magician" with Simone Turkington of Mystiki Magic.  And improv band Surprise Inside makes it up as they go along!

ELECTION SPECIAL!  (If you live in California, anyway.  Everyone else, DO NOT LISTEN!  Seriously.  Unless other people's state measures really make you horny.)  Confused by the California state ballot propositions?  Hey!  We are, too!  So we decided to invite comedy 'n' government guy Josh Kamensky -- of Surprise Inside -- to walk us through 'em after our last show.  Joining us is guest host Aydrea Walden of The Oreo Experience, who was still waiting around for her ride.  So come with us on a magical, drunken, totally-biased journey through the wonderland we call STATE GOVERNMENT!

The Corpse Reviver Show

It's Halloween!  Join the Drunks, guest host Aydrea Walden ("The Oreo Experience") and our special guest mortician Amber Carvaly of Undertaking LA as we dive deep into the history of the Corpse Reviver cocktail, the cocktail with two versions and one purpose: revive your corpse after a long night of drinking.  We also "Ask a Drunk Mortician" questions from our listeners, and find out if the Sexy Coleslaw Costume is a real thing.

The Summer Tiki Special

What better way to celebrate summer than with a bunch of fruity and boozy made-up Polynesian cocktails!  We get into the history of the Tiki bar while we sample the Mai Tai and the Singapore Sling.  That's right!  Two drinks!  Special!  Also, Matt talks about his distillery tour of Scotland, and Katie tells us how people are horrible.  SPECIAL!  (NSFW as always.)

The Cobbler Show

The Cobbler Show
with James Slay

The Army finally sits down with an actual bartender to discuss what life is like on the other side of the drink counter.  Some of it's good, some of it's really, really not, and we give you some tips on how to not piss off your friendly neighborhood drink-slinger.  Also: Buck forgets his segment!  And Vanessa kills a child! (NSFW as always.)

The Bourbon & Girl Scout Cookies Show

NSFW! NSFW! Oh, and NSFW!

The Bourbon & Girl Scout Cookies Show
with Linda Williamson

Let us apologize up front.  We thought this was a good idea.  We had no way of knowing it would end like it did.  Remember that little article that floated around Facebook featuring Bourbon and Girl Scout Cookie pairings?  Well, we tried it!  I mean, after we figured out half the bourbons they recommended were impossible to find and substituted our own.  And we invited writer L.J. Williamson to giver own opinions about that old cookie racket. That part went all right.  It was what came after we want to apologize for. (NSFW as always.)

The Ziggy Stardust Show

The Ziggy Stardust
with Andy Hermann

In celebration of David Bowie, we do a tribute show with L.A Weekly music editor Andy Hermann while drinking the Ziggy Stardust, a drink as complex as Bowie himself.  (And the first Army of Drunks cocktail that involves fire!)  Warning: We get loaded, pretentious, and kind of serious about Bowie and his music, but we still have plenty of comedy-ha-ha-good-times as Spork recounts her tale of getting pelted with eggs in Havana on New Years Eve, and we play "Bowie or Bizkit!" (NSFW as always.)
