Twin Terrors Macabre Manor of Mead Metal and Mayhem

Episode 378: Nerd Wings

Welcome back to the Manor!  Jody sent a meme to James about why hot wing restaurants are always sports themed and not nerd themed.  What would it take to make a nerd wing place work?  Probably more than we've thought about here, but we talked about it any way!  Feel free to use our ideas... for recognition. Snicker snicker.

Pour yourself a pint and cook yourself up a plate of wings and enjoy!

Episode 377: Jimmy Page and the Occult -- part 4 Alton Ales (The Crowley Family Brewery)

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to part 4 of our Jimmy Page and the Occult series!  This one wasn't initially planned, but once James started working on the notes for part 3 (see episode 375), he thought it would be fun to do an additional episode on the Crowley Family Brewery.  So here is a not-quite-so-occult episode in our occult series, on Alton Ales!

Pour yourself a pint (sadly not from Alton) and enjoy!
