This one is a little rich, hot, and spicy. We talk about some great beers we've had recently from Parleaux Beer Lab, Cigar City, and Outer Range. Chris talks about fun with his family at Mardi Gras in New Orleans but also that the birthplace of Mardi Gras is somewhere else. Nick had a wonderful time with his family in Orlando and has a lightsaber but is broke. John had a wonderful time during the Christmas season. We discuss our upcoming partnership with the Austin Ale Trail. Big congratulations to Sam Rojani who just became a new father and owns the Austin staple, Sunrise Minimart. John discusses a situation where he really had to flex his parenting chops as well as how important mental health is to ensure you are the best parent you can be. We have included some links in our linktree for anyone who feels like they could use some help. Then we taste Mi Abuelita from Martin House and let you know what we think about the Mexican hot chocolate stout. We finish up with a little tribute to a great TV dad we lost.

Thank you all for listening as always.
