  • Beatles, Beers & Bullsh!t 🚶🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶🏻🚶🏻‍♂️
    May 14 2025

    This week on Are You Sh!tting Me?, we’re taking a magical mystery tour through Beatles history, trivia, conspiracy theories, and arguments you didn’t know you needed. Aaron and Brett are joined by Chuck, making his official debut as a co-host, and he’s bringing the Beatlemania energy.


    From mop tops to mustaches, Abbey Road to obscure Paul-is-dead clues, we cover it all with the kind of banter, beer, and occasionally questionable opinions that define the AYSM experience. Whether you’re a casual Beatles fan or someone who’s still salty about Yoko, you’ll find something here to laugh about, argue with, or learn for the first time.


    Highlights include:

    • 🧠 Who really was the most talented Beatle?

    • 🎙️ Why did Ringo never get the love he deserved?

    • 🦶 A breakdown of the “Paul is Dead” clues (bare feet, license plates, backward messages—you name it).

    • 📀 Favorite albums and forgotten deep cuts

    • 📚 Wild Beatles trivia and behind-the-scenes facts


    And of course, it wouldn’t be an AYSM episode without an excellent beer... Strawberry Fields Blonde Ale by Crooked Stave (Denver, CO) — Light, fruity, and brewed with real strawberries—this blonde ale is refreshingly smooth and a perfect companion to your Abbey Road re-listen.


    Whether you’re team Lennon, McCartney, Harrison or finally giving Ringo his due, crack a beer and come hang with us. Just don’t play this episode backwards… we’re not responsible for what you hear.

    ✅ The must-have gear for any doomsday scenario 🔦
    ✅ The best and worst places to hunker down 🏢
    ✅ How long we think we would actually survive (spoiler: probably not long)

    ✅ Why Aaron refuses to bring his cat, and why Brett wouldn't want a bunker
    ✅ The CDC’s real-life zombie survival guide (yes, it exists)

    All this while drinking Applocalypse—a caramel apple gose from The Brewing Projekt in Eau Claire, WI. 🍏🍺 It’s sweet, tart, and oddly comforting—just what you need to cope with the end of days.
