Can you feel it?! It's time to get into the holiday spirit. We're not talking Christmas, we're talking the holiday that truly has some gravitas, Halloween!

To celebrate we got into the weeds with a couple of horror dogsploitation films in honor of our prospective guest of the show, Kris-from-Geelong and his new puppy. We start with the 1993 straight to video 15 millon dollar budget "classic," "Man's Best Friend." We are joined by Reuben's two kids, Bea and Ezra and once they bugger off to bed we get rather dark while discussing "Animal Farm" (not the book, mind you...), the discussion changes gears to our misadventures during Good Beer Week which included a trip the amazing Rainbow Hotel, our anthropomorphic animal equivalents, Reuben's adventures in adapting Asian cuisine to be Kosher, amazing BBQ from Red Gum BBQ, and Dinner by Heston.

We give shout outs to friends of the show: Nigel-from-Sunshine (another frequenter of the Thirsty Cafe and Bar), Marz-from-Glenroy (give this man a VB and he's happy, give him a well crafted IPA and he grimace with every sip), Thong from Moonee Ponds (likes craft beer and is far funnier and witter than either of us, we should probably get him on the show), and we give a proper congratulations to Pemmy-and-Phil-from-Ascot-Vale on their wedding back in May.

Beers were purchased from the Thirsty Cafe and Bar and are as listed below (we attempted to get more dog themed beer, but only wound up with one...)- Mornington Peninsula Brewery Commonfolk Brown Ale- Old Wives Ales Hair of the Dog XPA- Founders Brewing Trigo Hoppy Wheat Lager- Coconspirator Brewing Co / Market Juice Middleman Grapefruit IPA- Mornington Peninsula Brain Squeeze Hoppy Sour- Sailor's Grave Winter Farmhouse Ale
