Bourbon On Ice

So, that happened. The Super Bowl has come and gone, again, and your favorite nerds have decided that it must never happen again. That's right, they're co-opting the entire event and replacing it with something better, weirder, nerdier, and in all likelihood completely impossible. Hey, this is Your Friend Frosty's latest fever dream after all (and poor Mike Whiskey being dragged along for the ride). Go "sports"! Coming next year, the Bourbon Bowl! Heaven help us all.

The year is 1994. Somewhere in Massachusetts, a pair of nerds are getting very angry at pixelated lions and multicolored monkeys. Objects are thrown. Tempers are flaring. And years later, we're still not over it. Yes, that's right - it's none other than the nightmare that was that infamous lion-based video game, one so beautifully bright and colorful but deceptively hard and evil. Call the therapists, we're ready to talk about it at last.
But first! Summer playlists are already in order, because Your Friend Frosty and your bartender Mike Whiskey are so done with winter...

The common cold has claimed Your Friend Frosty. Whiskey has fled for the hills. But not to worry, there's plenty to catch up on. Start with episode one and work your way forward. But in case you don't want to start that far back, Your Friend Frosty is here to remind you of the summery bliss that was our summer episode back in season one: Summer's A Splash. Grab a mai tai, some water wings, and pretend as hard as you can that we're not all freezing to death in the dead of winter. Enjoy!

Close your eyes and hold your nose. That's right, we're asking you to think back in time to your (shudder) very first apartment. The roaches! The smell! The mold! The mice! And whatever else you may have happened to suffer through, we're saluting and commiserating over the latest Whiskey Asks where we delve into the world's (according to our listeners) worst first apartments. Whiskey revisits ol' Virginnie, Your Friend Frosty heads for Dennisport, and later we take a trip to the top of a very unfortunate building in Tokyo. What can we say - they're our first apartments for a reason, people.

Bourbon. On. Ice. Is. Back. And, as if that wasn't epic enough to grab your attention, it's a brand new year and your plucky podcasting duo bring you news of new things to come. What, exactly? Well, you'll have to listen. Here we are in 2024, and armed with your strange new year's resolutions, which Your Friend Frosty and your bartender Mike Whiskey will read off, as well as look ahead to next year's NYE bash (won't happen), and to spill the beans on a lot of changes coming your way with this podcast - and some new projects. 
We've missed you. C'mon, let's listen in together. Happy 2024!

Happy 2024. Whiskey has been dispatched upon the rest of New England and therefore no new episode this week...but never fear! Your Friend Frosty is here, and opening the big bad mailbag (or, in reality, the emails from our listeners). If you have a question or two, feel free to send them to Frosty and Whiskey, the Bourbon On Ice duo, at [email protected], and we'll be happy to answer them. You know, when the moment feels right. 

New episodes are on the way. Welcome to a brand new year, and season 3 of Bourbon On Ice.

As we close out the year, a mystery is investigated at last: we discuss all things nerdy like gentlemen, but are we gentlemen? Well, one of your podcast hosts is, and that would be your bartender Mike Whiskey. That's right, at long last, the sordid, bloody, tragic, and dramatic family history of the Whiskey clan will be told at last. We're talking war heroes, sea captains, and maybe a witch or two (wow, explains things) - and you're along for the ride. Let's finish out 2023 in style, people, and look ahead to SEASON THREE. That's right, you can't get rid of us that easily...

Ew. Gross. Whoa. Wait. What? Just a few things you may be saying to yourself when you hear this episode (consider this your official warning). Robare returns and your bartender Mike Whiskey gets very uncomfortable, while Your Friend Frosty actually passes away from too much laughter. Yes, that's right, it's a deep dive into the rather risqué world of leather title contest questions. Those are the things contestants in the gay leather or kink community get asked when onstage hoping to impress the judges and bond with the audiences, from "what ice cream flavor would you be" and "describe your perfect date" - but waaaaaaay dirtier and just plain wrong. The vanilla and sweet mind of Whiskey is pitted against a dozen or so questions asked by Your Friend Frosty, and also against the dark mind of Robare. What could go wrong?

So many questions, so many ridiculous answers. Not two, but three podcasters have sat down to do yet another round of "hypothetical" questions - but this time with a holiday flair. That's right - Your Friend Frosty and your bartender Mike Whiskey are joined by returning Woonsocket-er and rampant Whovian Robare. Grinch-like contemplations, reindeer related hijinks, and a wolf or two make an appearance in this episode - and strong feelings against or for eggnog. Yup, this is a holiday episode, all right...

It's finally (almost) here. After four years of (un)patiently waiting and hoping, the YouTube sensation known as Hazbin Hotel launches in just over a month - and Your Friend Frosty is positively giddy. Your bartender, Mike Whiskey, less so, but that doesn't mean he isn't going to sit through Frosty's very long-winded explanation of everything we know so far, fanboying over the voice cast and inane details, and generally being chaotic. Grab your room key and prepare for madness - it's (almost) check-in time!
