The Unwritable Rant

Juliette puts on her business head, finds an alternative profession, gets into something awful, admits to shady ethics, questions the muse, completes the deal, caters more than expected, hacks into a sad reality, longs for a lap, capitalizes on cracks, and finishes her cookies… all while drinking Barrell Bourbon Batch 17.

Juliette ponders technology, delights in sending letters, finds more grown-up interests, drowns in uncomfortable declarations, gets called into the office, plays an unwilling character, weeds out weirdos, does an analog hustle, receives an Ego, finds her eyes polluted, and appreciates the genius of her friend Crazytown... all while drinking Willet Family Estate 4-year small batch rye whiskey.

Juliette revisits the millennium, hates The Warden, gets circled by a peeing peacock, deflects seething balls, lines a desk with weed, prepares for the worst, alludes to a serial killer, attends a sleeper, considers a time out, fears 10 years of prison, stands accused, and settles the score on the worst ever New Year's Eve... all while drinking Jim Beam Distiller's Masterpiece bourbon.

Juliette is still in the holiday spirit, and admits to questionable beliefs, dabbles in rock stars, calls in The Pro, arrives in a chariot, visits a neon pink utopia, gets a spite lap dance, ignores her own rules, sends out a distress signal, slices up panties, and enjoys good company… all while drinking Peerless barrel proof straight rye whiskey.

Juliette questions the validity of DNA results, finds family tree crazy, visits an atomic wonderland, bartends past bedtime, mistakes Santa Claus, witnesses a massacre to a classic, appreciates the Budweiser clydesdales, experiences Christmas spirit, attempts to grant a wish, relates a perversely happy memory, and disturbs Mr. Bennet's bird… all while drinking Orphan Barrel Rhetoric 25-year old bourbon.

Juliette sets up a casino sting, treads on trendy shoes, doctors up with not-so-nice intentions, wagers on vomit, encounters rage juice, enters a bubblegum factory relationship, plays an unsexy game, and spearheads an uncomfortable truth… All while drinking Barrell Bourbon Batch 16.

Juliette visits Whiskey acres distillery, stares down a steamy mash pool, reduces into a cardboard box, accepts a Thanksgiving invitation, tests a heating system, evokes The Great Dismal Swamp, scrapes off char, visits a Laurel Canyon cottage, gets dangerously festive, consults pioneers, empties a room, picks out shrapnel, and appreciates recipes and the lack thereof... all while drinking Basil Hayden Dark Rye whiskey.

Juliette heads to Nashville with her guy to bash a country bar, fear alien subliminal messages, hunt down real country music, heckle a band, take on the sidewalk, assume a new identity, snag complementary cheese, break up a posse, secure a scooter, and keep it classy ... all while drinking Whiskey Acres 5.5 bourbon.

Juliette revisits her conversation with author A.E. Hotchner in celebration of his 101st birthday, literary career, and life. "Hotch" discusses his friendship with Ernest Hemingway, explores Hemingway's most important relationships and work, and even reveals Hemingway's favorite drink. This interview was originally released in October 2015, and remains Juliette's most personal and memorable. A.E. Hotchner is a memoirist, novelist, playwright, and biographer. He has just released a new novel, "The Amazing Adventures of Aaron Broom."

Juliette is joined by comedian Dave Landau.
