Miguel gets into the brand discipline behind the growth. Why Bootlegger turned down trends their own customers were asking for. How a year of navigating aviation regulations put their coffee at 30,000 feet. What drove the decision to strip the brand back to a gold dot. And why consistency, not innovation, is the framework that keeps them relevant while competitors slip. For CMOs navigating saturated categories and the pressure to chase every trend, Miguel's approach is a useful counterweight. Bootlegger doesn't follow. It holds the line, makes two or three big plays a year, and backs quality at every touchpoint from the roastery to the runway. The result is a brand that's grown faster by doing less. Sharp, honest, and packed with thinking you can actually use. If you're building a brand in a crowded category and trying to scale without giving ground, this one's for you.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief takes the ride with Dina Coker, founder of Lythgoe Bourbon, and Steffani Scheurich, the brand's Master Blender. Together they dive into the story behind a bourbon brand that is bold, confident, and completely unapologetic—just like the woman who inspired it. Lythgoe Bourbon draws its spirit from Gertrude "Cleo" Lythgoe, often called the Queen of the Bootleggers during Prohibition. Cleo was known for her fearless personality, sharp business mind, and refusal to play by anyone else's rules. That same unapologetic attitude lives inside every bottle of Lythgoe Bourbon today. The episode begins with Pauline's Victory, an 8-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon bottled at 90 proof. Elegant and balanced, this pour sets the tone for the first half of the conversation. It's refined yet confident, delivering classic bourbon notes with a smooth character that invites you to slow down and appreciate the craft behind it. As the glasses empty, Dina and Steffani talk about building a brand that honors the rebellious spirit of Cleo Lythgoe while celebrating the women helping shape the modern whiskey world. In the second half of the show, the crew pours the Founder's Collection, a 9-year-old four-grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon. With both rye and wheat in the mash bill, the whiskey creates a unique balance where sweet and spicy notes dance together in the glass. The wheat softens the edges while the rye brings the spice, creating a layered bourbon that highlights Steffani's artistry as a master blender. It's a conversation about history, bold women in whiskey, and the unapologetic spirit that built this brand from the ground up. Pour yourself a glass, sit back, and Take the Ride with Big Chief on this week's episode of The Whiskey Trip.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads. George Remus was a lawyer who knew the law better than anyone—and used it to become one of the most powerful criminals in American history. During Prohibition, Remus exploited legal loopholes to build a multimillion-dollar bootlegging empire, earning the title “The King of the Bootleggers.” But behind the lavish parties, hidden distilleries, and untouchable image was a man driven by ego, control, and obsession. When betrayal shattered his empire, Remus committed a shocking murder in broad daylight—then defended himself in court using the same legal strategy he had once invented.

Send us a textEpisode 242Before Earl Weiss became a name spoken in whispers, he was simply a boy growing up in a city that was learning how to be hard. Chicago, at the turn of the twentieth century, was loud, crowded, and restless — a place where opportunity and danger often arrived hand in hand.This is not a story that begins with violence, but with beginnings: with family, neighbourhoods, and the small, ordinary moments that slowly push a life in one direction rather than another. Earl Weiss did not emerge fully formed from the criminal underworld. He was shaped by it, piece by piece, long before history decided how he would be remembered.In this short history, we step back from the headlines to trace the path that led him there — not to judge, but to understand.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com

In this episode of Fingal's Cave, host Ian Priston talks with Steve Anderson - creator of the iconic Floydboots website, visited over a million times by collectors, and author of the 2024 book Wizardo: Stories of a Bootlegger.Steve reflects on five decades of Pink Floyd: from being a 12-year-old at Wembley Empire Pool in November 1974 and the heartbreak of his prized Stoke bootleg being broken - to the challenge of hunting down and thrill of listening to rare titles. He recalls leaving home at 3am from Knebworth 1975, the ferocity and spectacle of the Animals tour, the monumental experience of The Wall shows, and meeting the band at the premiere of The Wall film.Steve also shares two extraordinary encounters with Syd Barrett in the 1990s - fleeting but unforgettable glimpses of the band's elusive founding genius. Along the way, he discusses Barrett superfan the late Bernard White, the legacy of John Wizardo, his adventures as a record dealer, and the time he was offered Roger Waters' Live at Pompeii bass. It is a fascinating story of how a lifetime can be shaped by music, soundtracked by Pink Floyd. This episode is in stereo - because, well, it just had to be. And if you think you hear a fly buzzing, dogs wanting attention, or even church bells chiming in the distance… you are not imagining things. Consider them accidental Pink Floyd–style sound effects.Subscribe to Fingal's Cave for more journeys to the edges of Pink Floyd music history.

Newspapers from Kentucky to New York branded her a “Modern Cavewoman,” while her groom swore he'd been too drunk to know he was saying “I do.”Then, we dive into the chaotic, decades-long saga of the Alford family of Winchester, known as “the Bootleg Syndicate” during Prohibition.

During the 1920s and early 1930s, a jug of illegal whiskey could change a family's fortune—or tear it apart. Whether your ancestors ran stills deep in the woods or simply served homemade brew at a quiet kitchen table, Prohibition touched nearly every community in America. The records left behind by this period—if you know where to look—reveal a time of defiance, desperation, and secret enterprise. And if you've got Southern, Appalachian, Midwestern, or even urban roots, there's a good chance someone in your family tree ran afoul of the law during this dry era. Let's take a closer look at the legacy of Prohibition, how moonshining worked, why so many people got involved, and how to uncover those stories in your own family history.
