Rubio’s getting over a cold, and his voice is too shot to host this show full of beer sent to us by listener Andy Richter. A Batman pajama-wearing Grant takes over, thinks go a little nuts, and Mike gets some respect.

I’m not sure who thought it would be a good idea to taste five huge beers, or why we decided to start with three above 11%, but that might explain the hostility and murder talk.
