The Paul Ald Pod ·

2022/12/07

Kudos to anyone that can actually understand this inaudible, indiscernible gibberish! In this week's episode, I'm high... kind of... am I? We discuss Christmas things, Mexican food, Gym workouts, the new job, Buttermilk being super hyper, cold showers, books, turn signals, and shopping.

Episode 31: Voter & Local Drunkard

The Paul Ald Pod ·

2022/11/09

In this episode, I drop the f bomb a bit too much, as I speak very zealously about topics such as abortion, voting, getting drunk, being an idiot, reading books, and the Packers being a bad team. No new beer this week, but the outro music is a hilarious dubstep song called "Keyboard Killer" by Barely Alive. Seriously, the first 60 seconds of that song is comedic genius!
