This episode we violate the stay-at-home order, FU Newsom, and escort 2020 out the door by drinking holiday beers and spreading good cheer with our year-in-review. Next, we exercise our respiratory system and trek with a woman who climbed to Everest … COUGH … Base Camp. Finally, we pull a Dick … COUGH … Clark and count down some of our favorite brews from Beer Dome. That, and our usual craic on this episode of Life in 16 oz.
