22/10/2018 Duration: 28minRoll out the red carpet, Ben and Josh are here and ready to take their seats atop Drink Mountain once again! This time, they try out a wholesome homemade beverage treat, while making a completely unwholesome episode. It kicks off with Josh's post-doc level of knowledge of female anatomy and continues from there. We've got possibly crude license plates, the magic combo: beer and markers, a discussion of Meat Loaf's discography, and a shout out to our good friend Erin, who is always willing to "get you into Dick's." And don't miss the updated-for-2018 version of "Shoo Fly Don't Bother Me." Then there's Braindead Trivia and Josh's complete and total excitement at getting his hands on a dessert favorite. It's all that and more, it's new game plus, it's the new Drinks With Josh!

08/10/2018 Duration: 19minOhhhhh yeaaaahhh! It's here! Put on your robe, lay back in your favorite recliner, strike up a smoke (if that's your thing), and let the immensity of Big Ben wash over your mind, body, soul, and ears! In an episode that we swear Ben was not drunk, high, or otherwise intoxicated for, the boys try out some birch beer. Well, Ben does. Josh is too worried that the situation is devolving into a Stephen King novel. Speaking of kings, the Kings of Drink Mountain of course provide some Big Ben-dead Trivia and beverage reviews, but at what cost? Does Josh survive the show or does the Bigness overwhelm him? Will the kingdom come crashing down? All will be revealed in this BIG episode of Drinks With Josh, with your host: (Big) Ben!

Plus, a fundraising plea to help us solidify our place as Greenland's Favorite Podcast. With such a title comes a responsibility to give back! We've also got Braindead Trivia, a horrible-in-concept snack, and some new factions for the Harry Potter universe.

This time, Ben is fed up with Josh spreading Twitter rumors about him refusing to do beer shows. Friends of the show piled on and even a local brewery got in on the act. Ben is now calling everyone's bluff and Uinta's reputation is on the line. The boys have a sampler of four beers from them to see which is best. Braindead Trivia returns, along with a new companion game that we'll just call Sexy Hat. It's even worse than it sounds.

So he just makes fun of Josh instead, as usual. There's also some lazy Braindead Trivia, the return of World Cup chat, and not one, not two, but three of the most insane questions you'll ever hear from Josh. Ben also adds to the fun with quite possibly the worst thing he's ever said on the show. Plus, "ceiling hitters," terrible impressions, and the true director's cut of 'The Wizard.' All brought to you from a relaxing camping environment. So grab the Comfiest Podcast around right now and find out if today's drink is worth your time. PS-There's candy, too!

25/05/2018 Duration: 40minSound the horns and prepare the thrones! The Kings of Drink Mountain have returned! This episode puts them to the test as they face a horrifying new beverage foe. Meanwhile, Josh is just horrifying, whether it's his taste in music at the grocery store, his desire for a certain bit of Napoleon "memorabilia," or his question about whether food can ever be good if it's...no you'll just have to listen. Speaking of Napoleon, Josh comes up with a great new sitcom idea. Are you listening, Hollywood? Our bank accounts are open to your money! Of course we've got Braindead Trivia, a round of Who Would Drink This?, and a new game where we try to come up with a new name for today's beverage. On top of all that goodness, there's a "special treat" at the end (if you can make it that far). So grab a seat and listen as Ben and Josh suffer through their newest drink, so you don't have to.

The boys take another trip to a local Indian market, but can they survive without yelling something inappropriate? They sure didn't the last time.

Episode 52 - Relaxin' All Cool (NYSPS)
14/03/2017 Duration: 46minWelcome back to "America, Greenland, and New Zealand's Favorite Podcast," Drinks With Josh! You may have thought that the Kings of Drink Mountain were weird before (or, at least, "quirky geniuses"), but this episode takes it to a whole new level. Ben decides that he needs to take a night off and relax. Josh is nonplussed on this idea from the get go. His opinion of the idea only gets worse from there. That's not all that's getting Josh's goat, however. He brings out a special, yet familiar, gift for Ben, then promptly spills it everywhere. Ben is convinced that Josh is frequenting a particular "gentleman's club," despite Josh's protestations to the opposite. Worst, Josh is faced with the reality of his trip to Bombay Cafe. Let's just leave it at the phrase "vomit tuna." In the face of all this, Ben keeps cool and relaxed as he floats through the laziest Braindead Trivia ever, learns new facts about Norway, and admits that we could charge for DWJ, but would probably need to put on a better show to do so.

Topics include his mom, um..."special?" donuts, and the single worst Kevin Costner movie ever made. It's worse than you think. All this and ever so much more on America, New Zealand, and Greenland's Favorite Podcast: Drinks With Josh!

09/01/2017 Duration: 53minYaaaaay! We did it! We made it to big episode number 50! There's so many people we need to thank...ourselves, of course. Plus Josh. And Ben. Also, Ben and Josh.
