* ScheduleSlip: The Session, for a period of time. Originally it always aired on Sundays (hence its original name of The Sunday Session), when the show moved to Martinez the scheduling became far less predictable with shows airing on many different days. While there were announcements on social media, many listeners complained about the lack of reliability that they could plan to listen live on X day in advance. When they made the move to The Hop Grenade the schedule became a solid Monday every time.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Listen to the first few episodes of The Jamil Show and you'll hear a very reserved, quiet Jamil hosting. This was brought up in Lunch Meet, as Justin tries to imitate Jamil's quiet, softly spoken demeanor. Fast forward to the time they wrap up the BJCP, Jamil is much more extroverted, using sexual innuendo all the time (which is encouraged when the network gets sponsorship from Adam and Eve) and being more natural as he got used to being on the radio.

It is currently owned by Justin Crossley, though there are many people working to make the station work.
The Session (formerly The Sunday Session): The BN's flagship show, it is relatively long for podcasts (average of 4 hours long). When creating the show, Justin aimed to mix the breakfast radio format with long form interviews with experts and brewers to get the sort of information short interviews wouldn't garner. Episodes air four times a month on Mondays.
The Jamil Show: Brewing With Style (formerly Can You Brew It): the Jamil Show started as a show where Jamil Zainasheff and John Plise give recipes for brewing to style guidelines. When they ran out of styles they changed to Can You Brew It, where they interviewed brewers to get the information required to brew clones of commercial beers.

Episodes air fortnightly, though it's frequently recorded live in batches of two.
Brew Strong: Hosted by Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer, it is focused on technical issues, in a more concentrated information format than The Session. Episodes air fortnightly (interleaved with The Jamil Show), though it's frequently recorded live in batches of two.
Lunch Meet (AKA "That Other Show): The BN's rarely broadcasted and even more rarely archived off topic and politically incorrect show. Airs sometimes at lunch on Fridays.
The Homebrewed Chef: Officially on hiatus (though the last episode was January 2012), chef Sean Paxton discussed cooking with beer as well as beer and food pairings.
Dr Homebrew: Hosted by JP, listeners send in beer and have BJCP certified judges taste and give feedback while discussing the beer with the brewer. Frequently described on air as an "interactive BJCP Score Sheet".
The Sour Hour: Jay Goodwin of The Rare Barrel hosts this show that focuses exclusively on sour brewing (possibly because Justin is an unashamed sour beer lover). Updates monthly on Wednesday nights.
