  • Talking Film Industry with Kat
    On this episode I am joined by my good friend Kat to talk about the nuts and bolts and how the sausage is made in the world of film. And since no 2 films are exactly alike, I decided on drinking Gins in this episode, since no 2 Gins are alike as well. It's a good time with a lot of interesting information.

  • A Much Better Week, But Then....
    After last week's almost melt down, I needed a good week, and I got one. But then I recorded the podcast and talked about, only to have my computer crash and I lost almost all of the episode. So with this episode I try to recap some of the things I talked about. I also add the segment of the original podcast that I managed to save. Sorry it's a shorter episode, but hopefully you enjoy it anyway. If you like what I am doing here go to the podcast page and follow and give it a rating.

  • I Almost Quit the Biz
    Bourbon hunting has started to ho too far for me, and this past week 2 different scenarios played out that almost made me quit being a part of the Spirits industry. Almost. On this episode I share those stories while drinking what is sadly, one of the most overlooked brands of American Whiskey, George Dickel. I definitely get a little off the rails by the end.

  • It's Getting Warm Outside
    We survived a snowstorm and St Patrick's Day, and now it is time to move on to warmer weather. On this episode I dive in to some summer sipper, starting with a comparative tasting of some hard seltzer/vodka soda/Tequila soda, and after I survive that I dive in to an assortment of interesting Mezcals. By the end I am ready to be outside grilling, playing corn hole, and having drinks with friends. If you like what I am doing here go to the podcast page and follow and give it a rating.

  • Makers Mark and Rob Samuels
    Everytime I drink Makers Mark, I ask myself the same question, why don't I drink more Makers Mark. Hopefully after this episode you will be exploring that same question. Today I am talking about an amazing lunch I had at Smoke Shop BBQ in Boston, where I got to meet and have a conversation with Rob Samuels from Makers Mark. It was a perfect day indeed.

  • TNT- Bonus Total Bottles
