  • Ridiculousness

    This week, I am diving into some ridiculous things in the spirits world. I am always talking about a ridiculous documentary. So to balance out all that ridiculousness, I'm tasting some serious Gins. One of them may ne one of the best Gins I've ever tasted. I had fun with this one.

  • Dollar Store Dating

    This week is another, take 2, late arriving episode, but better late than never. This week I am talking about 1 of 6 great Whiskies I've tasted so far this year, Fred Minicks new book, and the dumpster fire that is Facebook dating.

  • Lost Spirit of Rum

    This week turned out to be a wild rabbit hole ride. I set out to talk about Rum, and its lost place in drinking culture. But the rabbit hole I found myself in lead my to a very dark place. So, I balanced that out by watching a great documentary called Big Smooth about about a local sports legend who became an actor. It turned out to be a complete range human experience.

    This week I was a little lost for inspiration, then I tasted a new product, and it led my to a spirit that is also a little lost right now, Gin.

  • New Stuff

    This week I had something planned for the podcast, but it had me uninspired, so I made a pivot. Thankfully I had so much new stuff to talk about that it was easy. So I am tasting some exciting new whiskies, while talking about some new music, and a new TV show that is finally something interesting to watch.
