What's that causing havoc in the Prose and Bros studio? It's Troeg's "Mad Elf" everyone's favorite (maybe) high octane holiday brew! The bros discuss the history of this delicious treat including a little bit of controversy surrounding the mischievous ale. Paired with "Mad Elf" is John. K. Bangs "The Little Elf" but don't let the size of this poem fool you, it packs a punch! Join us as we once again delve into the history of this poet and learn a little bit about humor in the late 1800's which, yes, did exist.
