## Navigation

**"What Do You Meme?"** is the first episode in the eighth season of the series *Beer and Board Games*. The episode originally aired on February 1, 2018. The guests were Emre Cihangir and Deon Green.

## Notes

* The beer featured in this episode was Conway's Irish Ale by Great Lakes Brewing Company. The beer was selected and provided to the show by Matt. Matt states, "It's a no nonsense Irish Ale that tastes of the earth."
* "To honor" the special inaugural episode of season eight, Matt wore solid silver cufflinks made by his wife Tona. Deon comments that Matt could've been in *Boogie Nights* wearing the cufflinks.
* In the board game "What Do You Meme?" one of the memes had the text "when you wake up after blacking out and realize your Snapchat story is 11 minutes long," to which Aaron calls out on camera "Brandon." Brandon Jensen has been a regular guest on *Beer and Board Games* and is known to be lenient with his Snapchat use.
* The participants debate whether Matt is too classy for the lowbrow memes. Matt wins the debate by reminding everyone that he had "played an itchy butthole fart card" earlier in the game.
* In the freestyle memeing round, the participants provided their own photos to be memed. The following were the results (winning meme in bold):

* Emre is crowned the "meme-master" as he had won the most points. Emre proceeds to brush the dust off his shoulders.
