Episode 127 is here. To celebrate, we brought in Sean Callahan. You’ve probably heard of him. He’s a very popular man.
In this episode, we discuss the Omaha fish fry scene. It’s lit. We take a look into the life of a man on the Husker public speaking circuit. Plus….Connor is getting married. It’s real. It’s happening. All while drinking beers from Cosmic Eye and White Elm.
Read More Episode 127: Low ABV and a mistake beerGovernment supremacy. Murder hornets. Coyote invasion. What do these things have in common? Honestly, not a lot, but these are a few of the topics Grady covers in episode #61 of NE Beer:30! Grady also shotguns a beer for a good cause (Big Up: James Mussman) and calls Joe Cruz to talk about murdering murder hornets. Shotgun beer – Cosmic Eye’s (Lincoln, NE) Arrow of Time Black IPA. Sippin’ beer – Juke’s Ale Works’ (Elkhorn, NE) Ninja Juice IPA.
Read More NE Beer:30 #61 Listen Before They Take It DownEpisode 126. The microphones weren’t terribly cooperative, but we persevered. Sure, we may have lost someone along the way. But it’s all in the name of the empire!
In this episode, we welcome in John Gaskins, Jake Bogus and Tom Stephens. These three gentlemen were all there at the beginning of 93.7 The Ticket. And they have stories. Some of those stories made it in the podcast, some stayed off-air. We left the best ones in. PLUS….which state is the best state? All while drinking a trio of beers from Cosmic Eye Brewing.
Read More Episode 126 – Day job reunionAwwww! How cute!? This episode commemorates Taylor (Grady’s wife) and Grady’s 1 Year Anniversary. So cute! They talk about being married, what married life is like during social distancing, murder hornets (shout out Joe Cruz), and… what the hell does Fauci do again? CUTE! Taylor sips on Vizzy Hard Seltzer while Grady drinks Boiler Brewing Co’s (Lincoln, NE) Blonde Hawaiian Trifecta!
Read More NE Beer:30 #60 1 Year Anniversary w/ My WifeThis is episode 125. You’ve allowed us to be in the community for that long. It’s touching. We’re touched.
We welcome back Lanny Holstein to the pod in this one. He’s out in Denver, learning about laws, doing Colorado things. We get a soundbar update. We talk about fetishes. And we drink some beers from Stone Hollow and White Elm.
Read More Episode 125 – QuasquicentennialSteven Mattli is a travel nurse who currently works in the Emergency Department at Bryan East in Lincoln, Nebraska – and he’s NOT FROM NEBRASKA. That’s right! Steven is the first non-Nebraskan to be featured on #NEBeer30. Grady and Steven talk about how Steven got into nursing, what the hospital is like now during the COVID pandemic, what it’s like being roommates, and how Settlers of Catan is the best board game ever. They enjoy Empyrean Brewing Co’s (Lincoln, NE) Tequila Barrel-Aged Chocolate Churro Stout and Founders Brewing’s (Michigan) Mas Agave Grapefruit.
Read More NE Beer:30 #59 Steven Mattli | Travel Nurse & RoommateOk, the empire didn’t strike anything. The empire is a welcoming place for all to come. If you have a podcast, the empire wants you.
As proof, we welcome in Grady from NE Beer 30. He’s a good guy who has said some slanderous things about us while flirting with the idea of joining the empire. Will he? Won’t he? The man is a major tease. Also….TV corner. Sex toys and who has them. A man named Steven. And beers from Cosmic Eye and Zipline.
Read More Episode 124: The Empire Strikes BackEpisode 123. Another socially distant episode. Only in this one, Zoom has reinstated their 40 minute time limit. WTF?!? The pandemic isn’t over! Keep giving us free stuff!
In this episode, we welcome back Brett Kane. He lives in Denver, which seems to have things much worse than us. We talk about doing sports radio without sports. We talk about maintaining a healthy marriage under pandemic conditions. And we talk about how Mark refuses to spend money on things like sunglasses and sound bars. All while drinking beers from Pint 9, White Elm and Code Beer Co.
Read More Episode 123 – A fresh look at Pint 9Episode 122. If anybody is friends with both the waffle man and the pancake man and wants to arrange for them to come on the show, that’d be cool. Same goes for anyone who knows Joel McHale.
In this episode, we talk improv comedy. And why Mark won’t audibly laugh at a comedy show (the emotional scars are real). We start naming NHL teams for some reason. Reality shows. Quarantine TV Update. Michael Bruntz did not join us. All while drinking beers from White Elm, Zipline, Kros Strain and Pint 9.
Read More Episode 122: Waffle Man vs Pancake ManEpisode 121 is here. That’s a palindrome. That’s neither relevant nor interesting, it’s just a fact.
In this episode, we get caught up on life under COVID’s rule. Are people starting to get a little rebellious? Feels like it. What’s this TikTok thing? Whatever it is, Connor’s in. Celebs are giving away cool stuff to raise money. Andrew calls in to talk about beer and sports. And Connor breaks down the first season of Community. All while drinking beers from Stone Hollow Brewing.
Read More Episode 121 – TikTok has TikTaken overEpisode 120. Not as sad as last week’s episode. But….not NOT sad.
In this episode, we welcome in Josh Peterson. He can speak intelligibly about a number of topics, but we wasted his brain by talking about burgers for 45 minutes. ALSO….pocket knife guy (what are they trying to prove?), post-corona world (can we really not high five anymore?), and Lincoln’s beer scene wipes the floor with Omaha’s. All while drinking beers from Cosmic Eye and White Elm.
Read More Episode 120 – Burgers and Pocket KnivesEpisode 119. Y’all are really doing business over Zoom? That seems hard. Kids are learning this way?
In this episode, we welcome in Jackie. She’s in Connor’s “remote studio.” She’s also a teacher, and gives us the rundown on what that’s like in the age of Corona. Daine zooms in like a Fridge Guy. It’s all very satisfying. All while drinking beers from Kros Strain, Cosmic Eye and Juke’s Ale Works.
Read More Episode 119 – Zoom ZoomEpisode 118. Please listen while maintaining a six foot halo from everybody. We can’t be too careful.
In this episode….the merits of historical sports on TV. Chughub. Using the phone *gasp* to support local businesses. Millennials are the new cool kids. Tiger King. Love is Blind. A response to that jerk over at NE Beer 30. All while drinking beers from White Elm and Nebraska Brewing.
Read More Episode 118 – Beers in the Time of Social DistancingEpisode 117. The world is new. It’s different. It’s scary. We aren’t allowed to shake hands anymore. It all happened very quickly.
So, naturally, we spend a half hour talking about Netflix’s Love is Blind. And trying to figure out what CATS is all about (regardless of the presence of buttholes). And, yes, we talk about what it’s like to go through life “with all that’s going on in the world right now.” All while drinking stouts from Big Grove, Goose Island, and Zipline.
Read More Episode 117 – Stouts w/ no friendsMichael Snow is here. But he’s changed, man. He’s a cowboy now.
This was a weird episode. This was recorded while the entire country was shutting down before our eyes due to COVID-19. We tried to have fun. We realized we probably shouldn’t be having fun. We didn’t know what to do. When all else failed, we made fun of Snow for being a cowboy. All while drinking Coronas, Hopslams, and Cold Press Cocos.
Read More Episode 116 – Corona RodeoIn this Episode Daine is joined by James and Jason two active members in the craft beer community and members of one of the oldest home brew clubs around – The Lincoln Lagers.

Guys, DP has some stories. There are stories about turning down a chance to be the voice of the Clippers. There are stories about the Mormon girls in Utah. There are stories about being related to both Donald Trump and Barack Obama. There are stories about how he lost the ability to get drunk. It’s funny. It’s touching. It’s unbelievable.
