Frank by Julie Hamill

Posted on by Mike

For our 52nd Episode The Drunk Guys read Frank by Julie Hamill.  While discussing the majesty of Queens addresses, what a douche Tommy is, Scotland, seeing ghosts and consistently mispronouncing Islay, we drink beers from Brewdog USA, EvilTwin, Goose Island, Mikkeller SD, and Founders.

We also look back on a year of The Drunk Guys Book Club Podcast.  We didn’t have the numbers available during recording (hey, we were drunk) so we estimated, but in 52 episodes we read 52 books (of course) and sampled over 300 beers.  Our livers may have been permanently damaged in the process, but you can listen to every episode in our catalog without fear of injury.   If you want to drink along at home, we won’t stop you.  Not ones to rest on our success, we will continue preaching the good word about books, beer and drunken conversations.  Cheers!

Thanks again to Julie Hamill for sending her book our way – be sure to check it out!
