200 – Finale

All good things must come to an end.

After 8+ years, the time has finally arrived to hang up the podcasting gear on this ranking journey. Over the years, we have laughed, cried, passionately yelled at each other, and came together to rank numerous glorious Top 5 lists.

In this final episode, the A-Team (Tuong La, Angus MacDonald, Samantha Leggatt, & Leslie Cserepy) reminisce on the humble beginnings of the show, go through our favourite moments, hear from an all-star lineup of past guests, talk about what topics we would have done if this show kept going, and of course rank some shit (because obviously).

We want to thank everyone for joining Tuong La and all of our guests on this insane rollercoaster of a podcast where we ranked everything from the obscure, serious, thought provoking, delicious, silly, and most random topics we could think of. It was never about the lists (they literally don’t matter as the podcast title implies). It was all about building community, having interesting conversations, and coming together on a thing while having a whole heck of a lot of fun along the way. So with that said, we are beyond proud of what we achieved with Ranked.

So thank you for listening to Ranked: Top 5 Lists of Stuff That Don’t Matter and for being part of this special thing. See you around the PodCavern.

PS If you didn’t like or agree with any of our past Top 5 lists, in the holy words of the Mayor of the PodCavern Leslie Cserepy….Fuck you <3 Top 5, top 5, top 5. -Tuong

145 – Top 5 Ontario Craft Beers

Cheers to all Ontario Breweries! 

On a previous beer-filled drunken episode, we ranked Top 5 Budget Beers. This time, the gang decided to level up and get more bougie with their alcohol by ranking craft beers! Craft beer has become increasingly popular over the years as more breweries pop up every single day and Ontario does not mess around when it comes to their booze. The excitement of craft beers come from the sheer variety of brews out there, with fun cans, and flavour profiles. And while drinking craft beer can get expensive, you often get more bang for your buck in terms of quality and alcohol percentage (sorry Pabst Blue Ribbon). So join Tuong La and our favourite idiots at Pull the Plug Justin Godelie, Shannon Godelie, and Justin Briner as they chug down some delicious samples while ranking Top 5 Craft Beers in Ontario!
