Bourbon On Ice

Send us Fan Mail

The year is 2007. The place is Kansas. No, wait, don't leave yet, we're off to someplace (arguably) better: The O.Z. Not to be confused with Oz, but similar. Wait, is that Zooey Deschanel? And Neal McDonough? What's going on here? Don't panic, this isn't a fever-induced madness, but a trek into the long forgotten SyFy miniseries event, their take on The Wizard of Oz but with less singing and more guns, known as Tin Man. Come along with us and bring the small doggy in a basket, he'll be necessary, and keep an eye out for evil witches. It's gonna be a trip.

Don't you just hate it when you invest a lot of time, energy, money, or all three into an animated series based off a children's tabletop role playing adventure game back in the 1980s and it gets cancelled before anyone gets to see the exciting conclusion and everyone basically forgets it ever existed except for a niche group of growing nerds who take almost forty years to crowdfund and produce the final episode of said show in a glorious online animated production involving all sorts of twists and turns? Well, then, this is the episode for you! Or maybe it isn't? Your Friend Frosty and your bartender Mike Whiskey are ringside (or laptopside) for an event forty (alright, maybe thirty-six) years in the making: Requiem, the very late final episode of the Dungeons & Dragons Animated Series cartoon. Link below, and nerdiness all around you.

No, that title isn't repeating itself. Well, not without good reason. This is our very special episode all about "Very Special Episodes", also known as "After School Specials". But trust us when we say, they're all significantly nerd-flavored, because these happen to be all about animated series. Diving into the past, your plucky hosts Mike Whiskey and Your Friend Frosty bring you dramatic tales of guns, drugs, and booze - for kids! Yeah, it's a confusing time. But then again, the early 2000s and all of the 90s were just plain... off.

Coming up on this episode: nightmares!!! Also, a tale of very screwy behind-the-scenes shortsightedness. Your Friend Frosty is dragging your bartender Mike Whiskey kicking and screaming all the way back to the year 1999 where the world sat in hushed anticipation of the brand new fantasy-based video game known as 40 Winks - and then got bupkis, because it was never released. But why? WHY? Well, you'll have to listen to the episode. Also, popcorn, Whiskey's treasure trove of classic games, and dog farts. Enjoy?

The summer is winding down, and we're running out of minisodes. This may be the perfect time for us to... well, record some actual episodes. It'll happen. But in the meantime, have you met our new friend? Also, there's Mexican wrestlers, super powers, and someone's on a date - and it isn't Your Friend Frosty or Mike Whiskey. Awkward...

Full length episodes to return in the fall.

Warning: this particular minisode deals with blasphemy, madness, insanity, and moderately tasty wafers. Listen at your own risk. But let's face it, if you've been a part of our summer minisode journey so far, you know what you're in for. Or maybe you have no idea? It's possible. Also, there's an evil woman, a lot of math, and some hysteria. 

Regular length episodes will return in the fall.

Yes. It is what it is. And what is it? It's the return of the summer 2024 minisodes. Yeah, sorry, our schedules are still not syncing up, but fortunately we have buffalo wings, gluten-free pizza, lots of booze, and a lot to talk about in the meantime. Join us, will you, for a sophisticated talk about classical composers of years past - and then a lot of really bad decision making when it comes to DnD. 

Regular-length episodes to return... someday.

The summer heat has driven your podcasting duo apart. Bad sun, bad sunshine! Go, sit there, think about what you've done. Also take that brat known as "humidity" with you. In the meantime, Bourbon On Ice is throwing it back to our most popular episode of all time, a gem from our first year of recording the misadventures of Your Friend Frosty and Mike Whiskey, one particular one where Mike Whiskey answers a Whiskey Asks question and Frosty regales everyone with a tale of intrigue and potential disaster. We'll be back together next week, but for now, join us in hiding from the sun. Stay inside and listen to a podcast or two. Like this one.

Behold: a topic so big, we can't fit it all in one episode. In following with our theme of lists, this time your bartender Mike Whiskey has tracked down a list of the top 100+ nostalgia bait tv shows for 90s kids. Did you cringe in terror at the Crypt Keeper and shudder during Goosebumps? Did you "whoo-ooo" during the Ducktales theme song? Are you a Pokemaniac, or live in a pineapple somewhere under the sea? Then come along, this one's for you. 

In this hapless installment, we scrape the bottom of the barrel with everything that you've never heard of, and trust us, it gets BAD. But it was the 90s, so be.... forgiving? Hang on, we're over the top 100 hump, and now it's time to descend.
