Barley & Me host Ben Rice joins up with Paulina Olivares (Sacramento Pinks Boots Society) and Corky McDonnell (Dare Daniel Podcast) to review the 2006 cinematic classic Beerfest! In addition to discussing the veritable who's-who of character/sketch comedy actors, we touch on the quality of real-life brews seen on film, and maybe devolve into some outside discussions. Things like: The Mandela Effect, stealing from Shel Silverstein, peeing your pants (actually, that's related to the movie), and applauding in theaters. Plus! Expectations of comedy directors, going big or going home, and the harshness of the German language. And so, so much more, on this latest episode of Leonard Malting! Enjoy!
If you have a beer-centric or heavily-beer-involved movie recommendation, let us know and maybe we’ll do this again!

Ben is also posting #Chugs4Charity videos semi-daily on Instagram (@barleyandmepod), to help raise funds for those affected by this shutdown. You can Venmo Ben ($comedianbenrice) or hit his PayPal (@barleyandmepod) and all money will go to support the NAACP, ACLU, Black Lives Matter, and other civil rights helpers. Charities will change with the times and as emergencies arise. But the point is: all donations will go to help those who need it.
