Tiny, Tarzan, and The Prince of Pittsburgh crank Beer Night up a notch to celebrate Guru's Birthday. Many happy returns, buddy!

The Prince was chosen to play The Price Is Right on the court at the KSU basketball game. Unfortunately, his knowledge of how much things cost did not measure up and he blew his chance at $200.

In addition to being our most ardent cheerleader, most frequent member of our live studio audience, and a most loyal fan, Living Legend Debbie is the mother of yet ANOTHER Living Legend of the PDBT! Debbie is currently beating the odds against a force that underestimated the power of the wrong woman. Please put her on your prayer list, folks. We're all in this together, Debbie! You've always had our backs, we'll always have yours. One team!!!

I humbly ️ accept the award of Living Legend because I am still living 😆and have all intentions of upholding the record of attending the most recordings of the podcast in the Cathedral,

This is Living Legend andSuperfan Rachel bringing it in her new t-shirt! You look fabulous, Rachel! How can we ever thank you enough for all the promotion you do for the show? You even got us mentioned on Youngstown TV! As another member of the Peanut Gallery at the Cathedral, you our spirits as much as we boost hers. To our unsung, unpaid, uncredited Executive Producer, we say "Thank you, Good Friend. You are a true Living Legend,"

❤️

Jeff T celebrates winning his Pgh Dive Bar t-shirt at the best sandwich shop in the 'burgh - Peppi's on Western Ave on the Northside.

Upon being anointed as a Living Legend of Pgh Dive Bar Talk, Jeff declared "I humbly accept the nomination as a Living Legend.  Sorry, I never got the memo of the podcast till halfway in.  I would like to thank the Academy, my parents, my lovely bride, friends, family, Tiny and THE Prince of Pittsburgh (head tilt) for one of the greatest honors bestowed upon me.  Without all of you, this would not have happened.  So tilt a glass with me.  Hopefully someone is watching."

There was a time when The Prince paid for seats this good. Now he squirrels the money away to win the chance to spend an hour on Cleveland radio personality Rachel Steele's show.

The Prince of Pittsburgh loves hanging out at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex. It's much more than just a place to watch the Penguins practice - for free! Great views from the bleachers around the rink. If you sneak into the nicer seats with tables and chair backs and get caught, tell 'em you're an NHL Scout or a Guest of the Commissioner. It works for The Prince!

Where's Waldo? Even at a packed stadium, The Prince's loyal subjects can pick him out with ease.

The Prince had no problem showing his appreciation to Steeler Superfan, Gee Schwalenstocker, "The Terrible Bra Lady"

The Prince of Pittsburgh pimps his ride with this subtle customization. Notice his deft use of the royal color palette - black and gold!

Somehow the Columbus Crew Cat got lost and ran into The Prince at a Kent State basketball game.

The Prince has known Living Legend Pitcairn George E. since his salad days at Boyce. His friendship has been one of those special bonuses with which life surprises you. We look forward to his insightful Pick 3 responses and are grateful to have him along for the ride. AND he's good to his mother. Thanks, George!

Thank You. ️ I fully accept my induction and would like to thank all the little people out there who made this possible. May 2025 be filled with good times and less cholesterol. 

Every episode we can count on Flip to be the first to watch, the first to comment, respond to the queries, and be a great sport. He is the show's biggest fan with a memory like a steel trap. He's our off-site storage depot for all information concerning the podcast. He keeps it all in his head... and his heart.Thanks, Flip! 

I was going to ask what has changed with the show over episodes 82-85 as it was perhaps the best 3 shows back to back ever! And then 86 was questionable with my induction to the PDBTHOF.  Words cannot express how truly honored I feel! 

Living Legend Clayton, his Lady Fair, and the Christmas Angel celebrating the season with his new Pgh Dive Bar Talk T. Thanks for your support, Clayt! We appreciate you!

Living Legend Brian rocking his new shirt. Happy New Year, Tommy!

If you can't beat 'em, (and when it comes to Kent State, that's everybody) at least make friends with them. Here the Prince of Pittsburgh and Zippy, the kangaroo mascot of the University of Akron's Zippers, compare how many beers it's gonna take to forget yet another loss by the KSU Flushes Flashes.

The Prince of Pittsburgh with Flash, the golden eagle mascot of the Kent State Golden Flashes. Flash looks a bit perturbed by the loss to Western Michigan, But The Prince, an ardent fan of Kent State Football (0-12 this year), is delighted with the Flash's 11-5 basketball season so far. And, in the immortal words of TigerCoach12, "When in peril and hard times, drinking beer makes it all better."

The Prince of Pittsburgh met his match at the Kent State v. Akron game. This Flashes fan was the only one drunker than His Majesty. 

Baby Forbes, the only person on earth more adorable than Tiny, rocking Halloween in his costume as a baseball. Livvy Dunne and Paul Skenes bask in his glow. 

Ain't no party like a tailgate party when The Prince! Is! There!

The Prince of Pittsburgh is rubbing the head of the Kent Black Squirrel for luck. The adorable critters are the unofficial mascots of both the town and university. We're hoping that The Prince can transfer some of his luck to the team. It's gonna take a lot more rubbing to get Kent out of the football basement!

The Royal Family about to board the Gateway Clipper for the Kent State party before the big game. 

🎶 Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour cruise, a three hour cruise 🎶

Crown Prince Baby Forbes puts on a brave face, knowing that this is just the start of a v-e-r-y l-o-n-g day, He gets 5 stars for cuteness!

The Prince of Pittsburgh having a blast with his new friends, Geff - the pride of AM1510 News Radio, and his bride, Amanda, at Dominicks - the best dive bar of all time in Kent, OH

Our buddy, Jason B., at Huntington Park, the home field of the Columbus Clippers. He's cheering on the Pirates' AAA affiliate, the Indianapolis Indians, in his best T-shirt. 

Lora makes a radiant bride! The Prince of Pittsburgh proudly escorts his daughter down the aisle, but, in his heart, can never give her away. Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness from the whole Pgh Dive Bar Talk family!

The Prince and Lora's friend, Taylor, share their joy.

They put up the safety signs AFTER The Prince sat down.

The Prince of Pittsburgh is inspired to give praise.

Is it just me? Or does it look like The Prince is being filled with the Spirit?!!? The photo has not been photoshopped in any way.

The Pirate Parrot finally gets a chance to check "Get a selfie with the Prince of Pittsburgh" off his bucket list.


Jason B of Columbus, OH drew a crowd at the Westerville Uptown Beer Festival when a Steeler fan from Cranberry asked to trade shirts.  Smooth move Jason! Make him play the Pick 3 and win his own shirt. Thanks for your support!

The best part of Beer Night was a visit from our friend, Kathy A. It only cost The Prince of Pittsburgh a T-shirt and a mittful of cash to get her to take a selfie with him!

The Prince of Pittsburgh takes time out of his busy schedule to check up on the Steelers' training camp. The practice met with his approval.

Meanwhile, Smokey Robinson asks if anyone knows how he can get a chance to meet The Prince of Pittsburgh

So many laps, so little time. With a little ingenuity you can satisfy everyone!

The Prince of Pittsburgh celebrates his Platinum Birthday at the July Beer Night with Tiny, Tarzan, and Living Legends Sully and Guru. With this friendship as his treasure, he's the richest man alive. Happy birthday, Your Majesty!

We couldn't do it without you, Misty. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. A PDBT Living Legend!

Bill S from Moon showing off his t-shirt at the Bridgetown Taphouse in Ambridge. One of our most loyal fans, he's also one of our very favorites. 

June 20, 2024 - One of the best Beer Nights ever - in spite of the heat. We missed you! Cheers to you anyway.

May 16, 2024 - Beer night - lots of room at the table, Folks! Hope to see you next time.

The Prince of Pittsburgh presents the Youngest Pirate Fan at the Park.

Who wore it better? Honestly, do you have to ask?

Poor little guy had a big day with His Royal Pap

Tiny hanging with comedian Jim Norton after his show at the Roxian Theater in McKees Rocks. Lots of fun!

"Hi, Just wanted to say thanks for making me a legacy! To paraphrase the late, great Yogi Berra: "I'd like to thank everyone who made this honor necessary!!"  Also, congrats to Tiny on getting the song. I'm guessing not many people who have attended dozens of Metallica concerts can name a Brittney Spears song from just a few lyrics. That was impressive."

Todd A. of Springdale Cheswick, PA looking dapper in his PDBT T-shirt. Congratulations, you ol' hamburg!.

Vacation held too many reminders of plumbing problems back home. To the Prince of Pittsburgh, this was just another enormous leak that he had no idea how to fix!

Big fun at the Home Opener! The Prince of Pittsburgh finds beautiful women to tailgate with even when there isn't a game.

Lovely Lauren from New York makes the Pgh Dive Bar Talk t-shirt look better than it ever has before! We are all grateful for her loyal support, encouragement, and regular participation in the Pick 3. The t-shirt is a token of our appreciation. Thank you, Lauren! Her fur babies, Izzy on the left and Chloe on the right, don't seem to be impressed.

Good sport Ed from LA Fitness puts up with The Prince of Pittsburgh at Beer Night.

Tommy rocking his new Pgh Dive Bar Talk t-shirt. Now THAT is a happy face!

The Prince of Pittsburgh - all set for the solar eclipse 

October always reminds The Prince of Pittsburgh of the 2013 Wild Card Game between the Pirates and the Reds. Like ancient royalty at the Colosseum, The Prince gives the ... err ... "Thumbs Down" signal to Gladiator Francisco Liriano to dispatch Joey Votto. Liriano complied. Volto struck out.

Baby Forbes went in for a check-up and taught the doctor a lesson about letting kids wait too long. While Princess Lora was picking up the files that Forbes knocked on the floor, the little Princeling gave the doctor's computer a test drive. 😄

Baby Forbes expressing his disappointment at his first Pirates Home Opener. Luckily his Pap, The Prince of Pittsburgh, is there to comfort him. 

Pittsburgh Charlie - Living Legend, t-shirt winner and Pick 3 player extraordinaire - picks up the hosting baton at Beer Night. The Prince of Pittsburgh feeling the effects of starting Beer Night in the morning!

Note from Jane - Pick 3 t-shirt winner, Greenville Dave, sets the bar high for all other men who don the mantle of the Pgh Dive Bar Talk podcast. Wow! Once he altered the shirt to accommodate his massive guns of steel, we ladies gained an alternative for our own "Would you rather". Thanks, Dave! 

Without his crown and glasses, the Prince of Pittsburgh blends seamlessly into the crowd at March Madness at the PPG Paint Arena. (He's the one holding the beer)

Superfan Jeannie from McCandless Twp. makes Beer Night a party! Thanks, Jeannie!

🎼You're simply the best! 🎵

🎵Better than all the rest 🎶

🎶Better than anyone 🎵

🎵Anyone we've ever met! 🎶

Donna from Richland Twp deserves way more than a t-shirt for her unwavering support and encouragement. Thanks, Donna, and thanks for raising the roof at Beer Night! What a blast!

Tiny and his wingman, Mark from Glassport, PA, making good use of their spare time between Metallica concerts in Detroit.

Garan of Slippery Rock, PA rocking his costume as the Prince of Pittsburgh for Halloween. The Prince welcomes appropriation of the Pgh Dive Bar Talk culture. (...as long as you can do it with as much class as Garan!)


Living Legend Jim Miller - our Beer Guru - and his crew take First Place in the costume competition at the Ill Will Brewing Festival in Columbiana, OH.  Jim is just to the right of Willy Wonka. Woohoo! 

The Prince of Pittsburgh grabbed this leprechaun at the Kent State Homecoming Game on Saturday and isn't letting go until the little guy gives up his gold.  (Who's gonna tell him that Notre Dame had a Bye week and this fan had nowhere else to go?)


Crown Prince Forbes - baby grandson of The Prince of Pittsburgh - made his first pilgrimage to the annual rebroadcast of the 7th game of the 1960 World Series on Friday the 13th, October 2023.

While other royals choose falcons for their hunting companions, The Prince of Pittsburgh prefers Flash the Golden Eagle as his wingman.

Which one sparkles more?

Adorable
