In this episode, the guys sit down with Paul Hletko. Founder and distiller for Few Spirits in Evanston, Illinois. 

Paul Hletko, founder & distiller, saw the power of people following their dreams.  He turned his sights to making spirits.  He relentlessly pursued a new style of urban whiskey that would be the equal to that of his friends in Kentucky.  But creating whiskey in the seat of prohibition?  Seemed like a good place to start a bold, paradigm breaking whiskey brand.  

Down a dark back alley in Evanston, you will find an old chop-shop making flavorful bourbon & rye from grain-to-glass with a bold Chicago-style twist.  Innovative products continue to flow from the team at few.   Proof, as ever, that appearances can be deceptive.

In this episode. The guys sit down with Country Music Artist and Songwriter Charlie Worsham.

Since the release of his 2013 debut, Rubberband, Worsham has established himself as one of Nashville’s most beloved and well-respected artists. In addition to his own music, he’s a frequent collaborator including work with Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, Brandy Clark, Luke Combs, Vince Gill, Kacey Musgraves, Marty Stuart, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban among several others. He also earned a nomination for Specialty Instrument Player of the Year at the 55th ACM Awards and has toured extensively across the world including numerous shows performing as of part of Old Crow Medicine Show as well as dates with Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, Kenny Rogers, Lee Ann Womack, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.

June 25, 2021—Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Charlie Worsham will release his anticipated new EP, Sugarcane, July 16 via Warner Music Nashville with new song, “Half Drunk,” debuting today. Watch/share the official music video here  https://youtu.be/CXr16dro-vA

Of the track, Worsham shares, “‘Half Drunk’ tells the story of the first time I told my wife I loved her. I’d just been fired by my publisher and my manager had quit management that week, but I was singing that day in one of my favorite rooms in all the world, the Station Inn. Powered by Yazoo Pale Ale, applause, and a sense that this girl I was crazy about might just be more special and more permanent than the whole music industry thing, I turned to Kristen, said those three magic words, and she said ‘I love you too.’ I hope this song inspires a lot of drunken making out and maybe a few last-time-saying-I-love-you-for-the-first-time moments.”
