6 Bs and a P: We Are Either Coming Strong Or We Are Not Coming At All – Episode 69
This podcast features terrible language regularly. Hot off the press for Super Bowl Sunday…It’s the season finale! The Browns finish 1-15, but the 6b1p crew finds a way to maybe, maybe, maybe find a little hope. They discuss the season, look for hope, avoid the topic of football, and took too long to edit so…

6 Bs and a P – The Stinkston – Episode 66
http://www.aquabearlegion.com/podcasts/6b1p-episode66.mp3 0-4! That seems about right. And it also seems if switching to twice a month for this podcast has caused the 6b1p crew to become psychics who can predict the Browns future. Cody Kessler is now our QB, Cody Parkey is now our Kicker, Josh Gordon is in rehab, Corey Coleman broke his…
