Bums of Manarchy
3 knuckleheads in Chicago, talking shit. For fun. The “Bums of Manarchy” is a Chicago-based podcast, hosted by 3 friends. Our weekly format is recorded in two parts. The first half content is all about sports, and the second half is for everything else (beer reviews, life hacks, complaints, knowledge drops, geo-political issues, streaming show reviews, etc.). Sports in the front, party in the back. Give us a listen! We take listener requests seriously!

The Bums are back in the rail yard with S6:E0146, a pre-Super Bowl extravaganza of NFL updates and premonitions; the case is made for “taking the fucking points” (and responsible use of data & analytics); NFL head coaching changes are reviewed (our O/U of 5.5 was not close); the Steelers are very “unSteelery”; the NFL HoF committee inexplicably snubs Coach Belichick (make it make sense); College Athletics is a dead man walking Harvard Business case in what not to do; FSU and Rutgers are deep in the red; and the Bums are in awe of Lindsey Vonn.
The second half buckles down with another infamous beer review, featuring Lyon, IL’s BuckleDown Brewing and their “Crackle and Pop” (ABV 6.0%) winter brown ale that presents like a barrel-aged stout by drinks like an ale (delish); a very limited preview of cinema’s own Super Bowl, and associated nominees— the Oscar’s; McDonald’s has lost it’s mind with a special freebie stunt; latest RIP alum features beloved actress Catherine “reverse heart” O’Hara and actor Demond “Lamont” Wilson; Ts & Ps to Savannah Guthrie and family (as the search for MIA mom continues); Paddy and daughter take on the Big Apple’s largest borough; and close with a shout-out to Prime Video’s ‘The Night Manager — Season 2’ (a decade late). Get some and catch up before SB LV kicks off!
Recorded on February 5th, 2026 at B.O.M.’s global headquarters ‘East Bunker’ in Chicago, IL USA.
