In this episode, the boys sit down for a game of Jeopardy! where all the categories are beer-related. You'll learn who the real ones are and who's a filthy casual. While you're listening, feel free to guess along! It's just like Jeopardy!

We hang with the Executive Director of the Iowa Craft Brewers Guild and talk about how the Iowa Celebration Bill is changing the game for local "third spaces," her past in synchronized swimming, and what you need to know before working with a 10-pound intern named Persy.
