Brocktoberfest 2025: Inside JNC’s Most Hilarious Oktoberfest Episode Yet!

If there’s one tradition the Jams and Cocktails crew takes seriously (besides their love of good music and strong cocktails), it’s Brocktoberfest — their annual Oktoberfest-themed podcast celebration. And in its fifth glorious year, the JNC Destruction Crew pulled out all the stops to deliver their most entertaining, chaotic, and beer-soaked episode yet.

Hosted by the charismatic Brad Brock, the episode kicks off with all the usual suspects in tow: Jordyn Taylor, Captain Cocktail himself — Derek Zugel, and the always-hilarious Kevin McLoughlin. From the very beginning, you can tell this isn’t your average sit-and-chat podcast. No, this is a full-on party, packed with drinking challenges, games, wild stories, and German-inspired cocktails that would make Munich proud.

A Toast to Tradition (and Trouble)

The fun begins with a nod to Oktoberfest’s rich history. Brad takes listeners all the way back to 1810 Bavaria, offering up a bite-sized crash course on how the iconic celebration came to be. But don’t worry — the education is quickly followed by Jäger Bombs, birthday shots (one that definitely caught Derek off guard), and the return of a JNC staple: the Steinholding competition.

In true Brocktoberfest spirit, things escalate quickly. The crew attempts to hold full steins of beer out at arm’s length in a hilarious test of strength and stamina. Who cracks first? Who cheats? Who rises as this year’s stein king or queen? You’ll have to tune in to find out — but we promise, it’s worth every second.

Mixology Meets Mayhem

No JNC episode is complete without a visit from Captain Cocktail, and he doesn’t disappoint. This time, he whips up a festive Bavarian Apple Mule, followed by the cutest (and possibly strongest) “Mini Beer” shot you’ve ever seen. The cocktails serve as both refreshments and fuel for what comes next: Das Boot — the infamous beer-chugging challenge that’s equal parts strategy, speed, and disaster.

Let’s just say... not everyone makes it out dry.

The Jordy Files Get Juicy

As the party rages on, Jordyn Taylor dives into her beloved segment, The Jordy Files, where she spills the tea on celebrity birthdays, Hollywood heartbreaks, and one particularly surprising appearance lined up for the next Super Bowl. As always, Jordyn’s delivery is sharp, sassy, and perfectly timed — the ideal break between beer-fueled competitions.

A Wild Ride with Unexpected Twists

One of the best things about this year’s Brocktoberfest episode? The unexpected moments. Like when personal stories start to unfold, revealing surprising connections between cast members that fans might not have known. Or when Brad pulls out a surprise segment to cap the night off in true JNC fashion — with laughter, love, and one last cheers to friendship.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss This Episode

This episode isn’t just a celebration of Oktoberfest — it’s a celebration of JNC itself: the community, the chemistry, and the completely unscripted chaos that keeps fans coming back each week. Whether you’re a longtime listener or new to the show, this one’s guaranteed to leave you smiling (and possibly reaching for a cold one).
