Drunk & Uncultured Podcast

We're sitting down with Katie from the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild to talk all things IL beer. Listen in to hear about the events they hold, the work they do advocating for IL craft beer/breweries, their summer passport and glass, and about why Shit Fountain in Ukrainian Village has become such a huge talking point lately

The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame just announced their list of 2024 nominations (and inductees by the time the episode is posted), so we thought it would be fun to do a deep dive into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Listen in for a history and background of the foundation that started this iconic museum, some of the exhibits, entrants over the years, snubs, and our guesses for who will make it in this year. P.S. There is no Ska in the Hall of Fame :(

In honor of Ezra Koenig's birthday and the release of "Only God Was Above Us", we're finally doing a deep dive into the iconic indie band Vampire Weekend. Listen in for an detailed discussion of their discography, iconic artsy baroque pop music style, their departure and return to chamber pop, our review of their new album, our favorite times seeing them live, and other random topics.

We're celebrating 10 years of Grand Budapest Hotel by dedicating a whole episode to Wes Anderson. Listen in for discussion on his iconic film and art style, his best movies, the upcoming short films, and more.

We’re celebrating International Women’s Day with our friend Charolette (@charolettebeerme). We sit down with Charolette to talk about her career in beer, how she got into the industry, the beers she’s made, her event planning initiatives like Lager Lounge with the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild (@ilcraftbeer), and fun shirts we should make We also got to be a part of a really cool project Charolette led in Chicago. More than 100 women in all facets of the Chicago beer industry (including your favorite beer podcast) got together to brew Vibes Since 1920. The beer pays homage to the history of women in Chicago whose unified efforts to champion equality for all, inspire change in their communities, and leave the world a better place than where they found it have paved the way for generations to come. Charolette dreamed up this opportunity as a way for women in the beer industry to connect, learn from each other, and create a network of support. Vibes Since 1920 will be distributed by Solemn Oath’s brand Hidden Hand. $2 from every 4-pack, $1 from every pint, and a portion of wholesale sales will go to the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild’s Illinois Diversity in Brewing Scholarship. We may be biased because we helped brew this beer, but it rips. It’s an extremely drinkable classic Pale Ale, with Citra, Amarillo, and Wakatu hops. There’s a really nice tropical brightness and a malty dimension from the Briess Caramel and Vienna malt. We’re so proud to have been part of this project, and we hope you enjoy the beer!

In a spiritual successor to our last episode about the 2004 music scene, we're jumping 10 years to celebrate the 10 year annivesary of some of our favorite albums. We always talk about how much we love the 2014 music era, and we're finally getting to covering just what we love about it. Listen in to hear what 2014 tumblr was like, the music everyone was listening to, festival line ups, top songs/albums of the year, and a few other college era Stephanie and Lindsey topics.

We've been talking a lot about the music that influenced us, and a lot of the records that make the list are turning 20 this year. So what better time to talk about the 2004 indie music scene, with topics like best albums, how these albums influenced newer music, the nostalgia we feel towards this music, and the divergence of rock music during this time frame.

Barbie turns 65 this year, and we're celebrating with her. Listen in for a history of Barbie, our experiences growing up with her, all of the fun games and (sometimes) fun cartoon movies, and the 2023 live action film.

It's a new year for Drunk & Uncultured, and we've updated our entire podcast set up. We're talking new microphone AND new computer. Since it's a new year, we're also talking about all of the things we're excited for: new album releases, upcoming tours, new movies, and new shows.

The 2023 pop culture review is upon us, and as usual we kick off this year end with music. Listen in to hear our takes on the stadium tours and subsequent concert films, the huge year female music artists had, shows we went to, our Spotify Wrapped, and our top 9 albums of the year.
