6 JUN 2026 · 🎙️ “Kev” – New Beer Belly Sports Episode is LIVE! 🍻
This week, local radio legend Kev Jackson joins Matt and Bruce for a fun conversation that goes way beyond the box scores.
🎙️ Kev takes us through his incredible career in radio across Northern Minnesota, sharing stories from behind the microphone, lessons learned along the way, and how he became one of the most recognizable voices in the Bemidji area. The guys get to know Kev a little better and discover there’s a lot more to him than just sports and broadcasting.
🏀 The crew also talks a little NBA Finals and what they’re seeing from the matchup so far.
🏈 Of course, there had to be some Minnesota Vikings discussion mixed in as the guys break down the latest happenings surrounding the purple and gold.
And because this is Beer Belly Sports, the classics return:
📬 Missed Connections
📰 News of the Weird
🥃 Whiskeypedia
It’s another episode full of laughs, stories, Minnesota sports, and the kind of random conversations that somehow make perfect sense after a few beers.
Remember, Beer Belly Sports is the Semi Pro of Sports Talk. We’re not about breaking news or hot takes. We’re just a bunch of guys drinking beers, doing shots, and talking Minnesota sports. Sometimes serious. Sometimes stupid. Usually both.

31 MAY 2026 · This week, Dustin, Bruce, and Matt are back with another episode of Beer Belly Sports… and honestly, there wasn’t a ton happening in Minnesota sports, but that has never stopped us before.
⚾ The Minnesota Twins are doing… okay. Not great. Not terrible. Just kind of existing in that weird Twins space where you’re not quite sure how to feel about them.
🏈 The search for a new Minnesota Vikings GM was still ongoing as of Friday night, and the guys discuss where the organization might be headed.
📖 We also discover that Matt apparently has not one, not two, but THREE new chapters ready for the Book of Matthew.
🚨 Perhaps the biggest revelation of the night? We find out that Matt is officially a “Captain Save A Ho.” The evidence is presented, arguments are made, and the jury may still be out.
📰 Bruce delivers another outstanding edition of News of the Weird, proving once again that real life is stranger than fiction.
🍹 Dustin introduces the crew to a new drink that absolutely snuck up on all of us. It seemed harmless enough… until it wasn’t.
As always, expect plenty of laughs, random tangents, questionable life choices, and just enough Minnesota sports to keep things somewhat on track.

23 MAY 2026 · 🎙️ “Time After Time” – New Beer Belly Sports Episode is LIVE! 🍻
This week, Matt and Bruce are back talking Minnesota sports, questionable decisions, and whatever else comes flying off the rails.
🏁 The guys react to the loss of Kyle Busch and what went wrong on the track.
⚾ The Minnesota Twins continue to confuse everybody as Royce Lewis heads back down to AAA. Is this just temporary… or something bigger?
🏈 The Minnesota Vikings are reportedly closing in on their search for a new GM, and Matt and Bruce break down what direction the team could be heading.
🏀 Are the Minnesota Timberwolves looking to move some players around? The guys discuss possible trade ideas and who could be on the move.
🎡 The Wheel of Topics returns once again, because apparently structured programming isn’t our thing.
And of course:
📬 Matt reads more Missed Connections
📰 Bruce delivers another edition of News of the Weird
🐻 We also learn that Kevin the Bear has somehow developed a brand-new skill… which honestly should concern everybody.

16 MAY 2026 · 🎙️ “Grasping Stalls” – New Beer Belly Sports Episode is LIVE! 🍻🚽
Last night, Matt, Bruce, and Dustin were back behind the mic — and joining the chaos once again was Charlie Yaeger from PBS North (Lakeland PBS)!
🏈 The crew dives into the newly released Minnesota Vikings schedule, possible free agent moves, and plenty of other Vikings talk heading into the season.
🏒 Unfortunately both the Minnesota Wild and Minnesota Frost are out of the playoffs… but Dustin believes the Frost may have gotten absolutely screwed over, and he explains why.
⚾ The Minnesota Twins continue doing… Twins things. Some good, some bad, and somehow still confusing all at the same time.
Of course the classics return:
📰 Bruce brings us another wild edition of News of the Weird
📬 Matt reads Missed Connections
🎲 Dustin brings back a classic trivia game for the crew

9 MAY 2026 · Saddle up for another episode of Riders on Beer Belly Sports — the reason why we’re the Semi Pro of Sports Talk.
This week Matt and Bruce hit the road talking about Mother’s Day weekend, the madness of Minnesota Fishing Opener, and everything else happening across the Land of 10,000 Lakes. The guys break down the Vikings adding another wide receiver, the Twins continuing to do… Twins things again, and whether the Wild and Timberwolves can keep Minnesota’s championship hopes alive.
The boys also lock in another legendary Shot Bet that probably won’t end well for somebody involved. Plus, Bruce finally discovers where Kevin has been hiding all week… and let’s just say it tracks perfectly.
And like always, Matt fires up another unforgettable edition of Missed Connections, proving once again that the internet was a mistake.

🏈 The guys kick things off with a full recap of the Minnesota Vikings draft—who they loved, what surprised them, and what it all means moving forward.
Then it gets… interesting. The conversation shifts to the situation involving a Minnesota Golden Gophers football QB and the fake ID story 👀—because of course it does.
🏒🏀 On the ice and the court, both the Minnesota Wild and Minnesota Timberwolves have advanced to the 2nd round of the playoffs, and the guys break down how far these teams can actually go.
🥃 A brand new SHOT Bet is introduced… and yeah, someone’s probably going to regret it.
And of course, the staples return:

📰 News of the Weird

This week, Charlie from https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=0 joins Matt and Bruce for another classic mix of sports, stories, and straight-up chaos.
Charlie kicks things off with some local Bemidji news before things quickly go off the rails—in the best way possible.

26 MAR 2026 · This week on Beer Belly Sports, we’re joined by a true Bemidji legend—the voice you’ve heard for years on KBUN and Paul Bunyan Broadcasting—Joel Hoover stops by the show.
We get to know Joel beyond the mic, hear stories from some of the action he’s called right here in Bemidji, and talk about the impact he’s had on local high school sports over the years. A really special conversation for the local sports community. 🙌
We also take time on this episode to pay our respects to Jessi Pierce and her children, who tragically passed away in a house fire over the weekend. Jessi was part of the Beer Belly Sports family, and our thoughts and prayers are with all of her loved ones. ❤️
From there, the boys get into: ⚾ Minnesota Twins Opening Day talk and predictions 🏀 March Madness chatter and bracket updates 🔥 The debut of our BBS bracket: “The Worst Minnesota Sports Moments” (because Minnesota fans know pain all too well)
Plus all your favorite segments: 🥃 Whiskeypedia 📬 Missed Connections 🤯 News of the Weird
All that and wayyyyy more chaos, laughs, and Minnesota sports talk.
Huge thanks to our sponsors: 7th Avenue Pizza, Sotastick, JD’s Outpost Rodeo, Knob & Kettle Restaurant, Paul Bunyan Communications, and Erbert & Gerbert’s of Bemidji.

19 MAR 2026 · This week it’s just Matt and Bruce back behind the mics, and the chemistry picks up right where it left off.
The guys kick things off with a tough look at the collapse of the https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=0 for Team USA 🇺🇸—what went wrong, and how did it fall apart like that?
From there, it’s a major shake-up in college hockey as both the men’s and women’s programs for the https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=1 and https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=2 move on from their coaches. The guys break down what this means for the future of Gopher hockey.
Then it’s time for chaos 🎡 as the Wheel of Topics returns—because you never know where the show’s going next.
The https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=3 get put under the microscope too… and let’s just say the vibes are a little meh right now. Is this team stuck in neutral?
📖 Matt adds another chapter of the “Book of Matthew” 🏈 And the guys react to the new addition for the https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=4—https://chatgpt//generic-entity?number=5—and what it could mean for the future
It’s a two-man show this week, but still packed with takes, laughs, and just enough chaos to keep it classic Beer Belly Sports.
