Leonard Malting is the beer-focused movie review offshoot of Barley & Me Podcast, featuring B&M host Ben Rice, plus co-hosts Corky McDonnell (Dare Daniel Podcast) and Paulina Olivares (Sacramento Pink Boots Society). In this episode, we discuss the 2012 Edgar Wright sci-fi/buddy flick "The World's End." Could this episode BE more timely?

Join us on the Golden Mile as we discuss this seemingly-straightforward film's many twists and turns, its excellent plotting and hidden messages, and we do it while enjoying a Silver Moon Brewing F* Cancer IPA! As we explore this movie's themes, it dredges up painful memories of our pasts, our medical maladies, and even leads to some song recommendations, if you're interested. Enjoy our take on this overlooked gem!

If you have a beer-centric or heavily-beer-involved movie recommendation, let us know and maybe we’ll do this again!

Ben is also posting #Chugs4Charity videos semi-daily on Instagram (@barleyandmepod), to help raise funds for those affected by this shutdown. You can Venmo Ben ($comedianbenrice) or hit his PayPal (@barleyandmepod) and all money will go to support the NAACP, ACLU, Black Lives Matter, and other civil rights helpers. Charities will change with the times and as emergencies arise. But the point is: all donations will go to help those who need it.
