Confusion, Chaos, and the Blind Box

What happens when you give The Professor, GT, and the Doc a mystery they can’t solve? Pure entertainment. The Blind Box returns this episode to humble the crew, leading to some of the wildest guesses we’ve ever heard. The guys might be lost, but you won't want to miss the journey.

The seal is broken on The Bootlegger, but the real story is just getting started. In the second half of our special two-part episode, the Professor and GT surprise the Doc with a secret second bottle that turns the tasting room upside down.

Is it a unicorn find, a hidden gem, or a total prank? Follow along as we finish our look at the "illicit" side of bourbon and watch the Doc try to navigate a surprise he never saw coming.

They say pride comes before a fall, and this week, The Professor, Doc, and GT took a tumble. We’re back with another double-blind sampling, but this mystery pour didn’t just challenge our palates—it completely dismantled them.

Watch (and listen) as we confidently head in the wrong direction, argue over mash bills and proofs, and eventually face the shocking reveal. If you love seeing the "experts" get it wrong, this is the episode for you.

Cracking "The Bootlegger" with The Doc, The Professor, and GT

It’s Fresh Crack Friday on The Third Pour, and today we’re getting into the illicit spirit of things. We’re breaking the seal on The Bootlegger to see if this bottle lives up to its rebellious name.

Will the Professor find some complex chemistry in the glass? Will the Doc prescribe this as a "must-have" for your cabinet? Or will GT give us the straight-shooting truth we’ve come to expect? We’re diving into the first-ever pour of this bottle to see if it’s a legendary find or just a good story.

Stick around for more than just the tasting notes—things take a wild turn mid-episode. The Professor and GT have been keeping a secret, and they finally pull the rug out from under the Doc with a surprise he never saw coming. You won't want to miss his reaction when the real truth behind today's pour is revealed.

No Label. No Bias. Just the Juice.

Welcome to another Wednesday installment of The Third Pour: Blind Box Edition. This week, we reach deep into the box for Sample #41. With the labels covered and our preconceived notions out the door, we’re putting our palates to the test. Is this a high-proof heater or a smooth, low-entry proof daily sipper? We break down the nose, the palate, and the finish before the big reveal at the end. Did we nail the guess, or were we miles away?

Can you have a "Fresh Crack Friday" without the proof? Join the guys as they’re sampling Ritual, a whiskey alternative designed for the Dry January crowd. We’re looking for that signature oak and spice—without the Saturday morning hangover. Is it a "buy" or a "bye"? Let’s find out.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Third Pour! Get to know your hosts—The Professor, Doc, and GT—as they break down their mission to strip away brand labels and get to the truth.

In this premiere, we’re tackling "bottle bias" and explaining why "drinking the hype" is the quickest way to overpay for bad bourbon. We also introduce our secret weapon: The Blind Box. No names, no reputations, and no backstories—just the juice in the glass. See how your favorites hold up when the labels come off.

Grab a glass and join the hunt. The Professor and The Doc are cracking into 'Ass Pocket Whiskey — The Search' to see if these not so budget-friendly pours can actually stand up to the heavy hitters. Expect honest takes, zero bottle bias, and the kind of whiskey review only these two can deliver. Will they find a new daily drinker or just more hype? Let’s find out.
