Well, it's Thanksgiving, so what better way to celebrate than with 1) a bottle of whiskey with a giant turkey on it and, 2) a friendly fight about the merits (or lack thereof) of Thanksgiving itself?

Also, Scott raps his side of the argument. Yep. That's right. He raps. Is it the disaster it sounds like? Press play and find out!

Ok, folks, real talk: Ed is 0-2 in quizzes on this podcast, and he's not happy about it. This time, however, Scott (inadvertantly, he swears) ends up stacking the deck against Ed by placing him in direct competition with an actually whiskey lounge bartender (Anders from Episode #15) in a quiz about whiskey slang.

So, listen in as we all learn a bit about whiskey slang (as defined by four master distillers) and find out how Ed does!
