Brake pads, wiper blades, spark plugs, reman parts… what happens when the household names behind them start going dark? We kick things off in full garage mode with a Templeton Rye tasting and a barrel strength Penelope pour, swapping honest notes about burn, smoothness, and why a high-proof whiskey sometimes needs time (or a tiny splash of water) to open up. It's the kind of hang where the jokes are loud, the opinions are unfiltered, and somebody's always trying to justify a bottle purchase. Then we get into the stuff our off-road friends actually need: sponsor updates, CORE planning, meal logistics, and the latest on votes, cronies, and rigs. We talk through what a more laid-back event looks like, why smaller groups can be better, and how a simple throwdown challenge turns into “do we really put the Astro van on the trail?” If you're into off-roading, camping weekends, and the community that forms around builds, you'll recognize the balance between big plans and real-life time, money, and wrenching. The back half goes deep on the alleged First Brands Group mess and the potential ripple effects across the aftermarket auto parts supply chain. We cover the brands people actually buy, what it means when factories shut down but trademarks get sold, and why core charges, warranty support, and basic availability could get worse before it gets better. We also connect it to junkyards shrinking and ongoing consolidation across automotive and off-road brands, then ask the uncomfortable question: what does this do to everyday drivers and the shops that keep them moving? If this hit a nerve, subscribe, share it with your favorite gearhead, and leave a review so more people find the show.

Talk2Q is back on Hard Parking. Quincy Shelton joins Jhae Pfenning to preview the 2026 college football season, walk the preseason Top 25, and talk the blurry new line between the NFL and campus football. Before Q hops on, Jhae covers bourbon drops, Blanton's Gold, skipping a packed Friday line, and a GoDaddy support call that turned into “wait… are you AI?”After the interview, Jhae follows the news that dropped hours later: the Browns waived TE Dae'Quan Wright, who had an agreement to join Lane Kiffin at LSU if he cleared waivers. The SEC and Big Ten then moved to block players who signed NFL deals, appeared on a roster, or declared for the draft from returning to those conferences.

Is the classic "unicorn" whiskey officially dead, or is the market just finally giving us what we've been asking for? On this edition of the Bourbon Community Roundtable, our panel is breaking down how 2026 is shaping up in the world of whiskey releases. With older age statements hitting shelves, pricing pressure mounting, and an avalanche of finishes and experimental wood treatments coming from both heritage giants and craft newcomers, picking a clear bottle of the year is harder than ever. We dive into the heavy hitters and sleeper hits catching everyones attention, including the Blade & Bow 12-Year Solera, Parker's Heritage 20th Edition, Garrison Brothers Cowboy Bourbon, Dragon's Milk Origin toasted and amaretto releases, Four Roses' latest experiments, New Riff's 6-year wheater, Old Soul's house distillate, Leiper's Fork's 10-year blend, Lost Lantern's 50-state blend, and an Angel's Envy stout finish that surprisingly delivered. We wrap up by asking the big question: in a flatter market overflowing with high-quality, accessible bottles, what actually makes a bottle legendary today? Show Notes: How 2026 compares to recent years with older age statements, pricing pressure, and fierce market competition. The wave of experimental finishes and wood treatments shaping consumer attention across large and craft distilleries. Highly anticipated releases on the panel's radar, including Parker's Heritage 20th Edition, Blade & Bow 12-Year Solera, and Garrison Brothers Cowboy Bourbon. Standout craft and independent releases from New Riff, Dragon's Milk, Old Soul, Leiper's Fork, and Lost Lantern. The evolution of "unicorn" whiskey and whether extreme scarcity is losing its grip on the bourbon community. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome back, Roadies! Todd and Jim are settling into the newly redesigned Corner Rickhouse at the Frankfort Bourbon Society, fresh paint and all, for another wide-ranging tasting session. Todd teases an upcoming Monday Meetup celebrating a milestone birthday, and Jim shares highlights from a family trip to Savannah before the two dive into four distinctly different finished and blended whiskeys that span Colorado craft, orchard-inspired blends, Scotch-barrel finishing, and rare American oak. On the Tasting Mat: - Lock & Co. Big Blaze Bourbon: A Denver-based, 95-proof, five-year-old bourbon uniquely finished with charred Aspen wood discs sourced directly from trees destroyed in Colorado's 2020 East Troublesome Fire. The nose opens with smoked maple caramel and a bright, citrus freshness. The palate is clean and straightforward — sweet maple and caramel lead, the smokiness softens mid-palate, and a gentle white pepper spice emerges on the finish. Ten percent of proceeds support Grand County firefighters and first responders. Available in Colorado and online to 48 states for around $56.99. *(00:25:37)* - Chicken Cock Oh Glory Limited Edition Hunter-Proof American Whiskey Blend: A one-of-a-kind collaboration between Chicken Cock and Laird & Company, blending 70% of Chicken Cock's 95/5 Kentucky straight rye (distilled at Bardstown) with 30% Laird's bottled-in-bond apple brandy, bottled at 100 proof. The nose is an inviting walk through an apple orchard in spring — fresh red apples with a subtle rye mintiness underneath. The palate is buttery and remarkably smooth, with a cool sweet wave up front, almost no mid-palate bite, and a warming, peppery finish that builds with each sip. Twelve thousand bottles released at an MSRP of $65. *(00:43:51)* - Bardstown Bourbon Company Lox of Jura Barrel Finish: A bespoke blend of 49% 11-year Indiana bourbon (75/21/4), 30% 10-year Indiana rye (95/5), and 21% 12-year Kentucky bourbon (75/13/12), rested an additional 32 months in single malt Scotch whiskey barrels sourced from the Isle of Jura — 84% ex-bourbon and 16% ex-sherry Scotch casks — and bottled at 104 proof. The nose layers honeydew melon, orchard fruit, and gentle malt in a way that is decidedly un-peated and approachable. The palate achieves a remarkable balance among all three components — bourbon sweetness, rye spice, and fruity Scotch character — with the lines between them blurring beautifully. The finish is long and warming, growing more Scotch-forward with time. MSRP $140. *(00:46:55)* - Bardstown Bourbon Company Discovery 2026: A blend of 55% 10-year Indiana bourbon (75/21/4), 25% 11-year Kentucky bourbon (74/18/8), and 20% 7-year Kentucky bourbon (74/16/10), finished in custom Gariana oak barrels hand-toasted for three hours by Oregon Barrel Works and chosen for maximum summer extraction, bottled at 112.8 proof. The nose presents butterscotch, burnt sugar, and a hint of molasses-like richness. The palate leans sweet and thick with cola-like depth, cooked cherry, and a distinct nuttiness; the finish carries a pleasant citrus-cherry brightness with lingering spice. MSRP $140. *(01:01:13)* As a bonus pour, the guys also opened the Lost Lantern United States of Bourbon 1776 Edition, a one-time-only cask-strength blend of bourbons from distilleries in each of the 13 original colonies — from Painted Stave (DE) and Liberty Pole (PA) to King's County (NY) and Reservoir (VA) — hand-numbered to 1,776 bottles at 121.4 proof and MSRP $199.99. It rounds out an episode packed with creative finishing techniques, cross-category blending, and the kind of spirited conversation that makes the Bourbon Road worth every mile. Head to thebourbonroad.com to sign up for the Roadie Bar, watch for giveaways featuring full 750ml bottles of the Discovery and Lox of Jura, and we'll see you down the road!

McCauley Williams is back on The Agave Social Club Podcast.Since his last visit, a lot has changed. In this conversation, we catch up on everything happening with Alma del Jaguar Tequila, including what's next for the brand and the upcoming Barricas Series. We also dive into McCauley's newest venture, Duck Club Bourbon, and what it takes to build a spirits brand from the ground up.But this conversation goes beyond what's in the bottle.Both Alma del Jaguar and Duck Club are built around a larger purpose—using spirits as a vehicle to support conservation and give back to the lands and communities that make these brands possible.McCauley and I talk about the challenges of starting a brand, the realities of growing in an increasingly crowded spirits industry, why authenticity matters, and what it really takes to build something that can have an impact beyond the bottle.

Light Whiskey is an obscure type of whiskey that's distilled to higher proofs than is legally allowed for Bourbons and many other types of whiskies. It was developed in the 1960's as a way for distillers to fight the trend toward vodka and other lighter spirits, but never really reached mainstream acceptance. Now, three retired Austin tech executives are betting that their light whiskies will catch on with consumers. We'll talk with Austin Craft Spirits co-founder Tom Buchsbaum on this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth and taste a couple of his whiskies as well. In the news, the trade conflict between the U.S. and Canada is turning into an all-out trade war with tariffs on both sides of the border. We'll have all of the details and the rest of the week's whisky news, too.

Tasting blind is the only unbiased way to determine the best items on our shelves. This past spring, the Whiskey Hotline undertook a companywide blind bourbon tasting tournament to determine the best bourbon on our shelves without bias.

Au printemps 1720, en pleine agitation du Système, un jeune aristocrate de haut rang, Antoine de Horn, est impliqué dans le meurtre sordide d'un agioteur. Ce qui n'aurait été qu'un fait divers, devient une affaire d'Etat lorsqu'on apprend qu'Antoine est condamné, non à la décapitation, mais au supplice de la roue.

Forcés à quitter Vienne, le couple impérial traverse une errance douloureuse à travers l'Europe, entre la Suisse, l'Espagne et la Belgique. Malgré les épreuves, Zita fait preuve d'une force de caractère exceptionnelle, veillant sur sa famille avec un courage admirable. Après la mort prématurée de l'empereur Charles, Zita devient la gardienne de la lignée des Habsbourg, guidant son fils Otto dans son rôle de chef de la Maison impériale. Pendant des années, elle demeure fidèle à la mémoire de son époux, portant le deuil jusqu'à la fin de ses jours. Près de 70 ans après la disparition de Charles, Zita revient triomphalement en Autriche, accueillie par le peuple comme une figure emblématique de l'histoire de l'Empire.

In this short, we taste and review the first release from Potter Jane Distilling Company. Big Vat Liar is a limited-edition sourced Kentucky straight bourbon priced at $49.99. Founders Denny Potter and Jane Bowie broke their prior vow not to source whiskey and it resulted in a release of 1,200 bottles as their own distillate continues to age. They are planning to release their own distillate in 2029. You won't only get to hear our thoughts about this bottle, but you will also hear Kenny discuss a recent event where he got to meet the founders and purchase this bottle. The future definitely looks promising for these industry veterans and their budding brand. --------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyJoin our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcastPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!

This week on Eat Drink Smoke, Tony and Fingers light up the Liars Bench Silver Tongue, a 6x54 Dominican puro with a Corojo wrapper, Habano binder, and plenty of spice. It makes a better impression on Fingers than Tony, but both agree Liars Bench is a brand worth keeping an eye on. Then it's back to one of the show's longtime bourbon favorites: Old Grand-Dad 114. At 114 proof, it delivers caramel, oak, spice, a little vanilla and cinnamon — and remains one of the best values sitting on the bourbon shelf. Especially when Tony finds it for twenty bucks. Fingers also brings in a viral Greek yogurt dessert made with vanilla pudding mix and apple pie filling. Tony spends most of the show mocking it… right up until he tries it. Suddenly, the giant bowl of protein-packed “Apple Pie Kaboom” doesn't seem like such a ridiculous idea. Plus, Pat McAfee gets dragged online for sitting next to President Trump, the guys wonder whether social media has made everyone completely insane, Allegiant Airlines discovers the miracle of free soft drinks, Rod Stewart postpones shows after a medical procedure, and Fingers has some thoughts about women losing their minds when their husbands shave their beards. All that and more on this week's Eat Drink Smoke.

You Won't Believe What JB Sent the Group Chat… Plus a Huge Mack Brown Surprise Is Coming!What's something that would take you just two minutes to do, but you'll put off for months anyway? The JB and Sandy Show tackles the art of procrastination in a hilarious and highly relatable conversation that sparks plenty of listener confessions. From overflowing laundry baskets and stubborn lightbulbs to donation bags that never seem to make it to Goodwill, the crew dives into the tiny tasks that somehow become major life projects. The excitement ramps up as Sandy breaks down a highly anticipated college football season, with Texas appearing in five of the most talked-about matchups of the year. The team also shares exciting news that legendary Longhorn coach Mack Brown will be joining the show later this week, setting the stage for what promises to be a must-hear interview. Listeners will also get a laugh from JB's now-infamous social media discoveries, which leave both Sandy and Tricia questioning exactly how his algorithm got so strange. One memorable moment has Tricia joking, “I immediately started to pray for you,” after seeing one of JB's latest finds. The episode also includes a heartfelt tribute to baseball great Tommy John, leading Sandy to share one of his favorite personal stories and a few unforgettable career highlights. Plus, the crew swaps tales about wrestling bears, donkey basketball, celebrity encounters, horse jumps into swimming pools, and some of the wildest experiences radio has brought into their lives. Other standout moments include: Tricia's chance encounter with Sissy Spacek. A discussion about the rising cost of concert tickets and a teenager's love of live music. Listener calls revealing the everyday chores nobody wants to do. Sandy's classic line about LSU night games: “There's just a cloud of bourbon above the stadium.” A recap of the bizarre and entertaining things learned throughout the morning. If you love football talk, Texas stories, listener-driven laughs, and the unpredictable chemistry that makes The JB and Sandy Show a favorite, this episode delivers from start to finish. Enjoy the episode?

Most people never think twice about the water coming out of their tap — until they hear how Louisville turned it into a source of civic pride, a public health milestone, and a hidden ingredient in the bourbon industry. At the historic Louisville Water Tower, host Jake sits down with Kelly Deering Smith, VP of Communications and Marketing at Louisville Water, to explore why this landmark matters far beyond its riverside views.Kelly traces Louisville Water's origin story back to 1860, when the utility served just 512 customers pulling untreated water straight from the Ohio River. From there, she walks through the filtration breakthroughs that helped shape modern drinking water treatment nationwide, how Louisville Water grew into Kentucky's largest drinking water provider, and why "Louisville Pure Tap" became the only trademarked tap water in North America.In this episode, you'll learn:How a devastating downtown fire — not thirst — is what actually convinced Louisville residents to pay for waterWhy the Ohio River and regional limestone give Louisville water its signature quality for both drinking and distillingHow 20+ local distilleries rely on Louisville Water today, and the surprising 1860s connection between water rates and whiskey barrelsWhat happens during "Sip with the Scientist," where distillers and water scientists compare notes on flavor and chemistryWhy water reliability is something most people take for granted — and why that complacency can be costly for communitiesHow Louisville Water collaborates with major utilities like Denver, Chicago, and New York on treatment innovation and researchKelly also opens up about the Louisville Water Tower's role today as a National Historic Landmark, working pumping station, and home to the Waterworks Museum — a hands-on education hub open for public tours, school field trips, and bourbon lovers alike.Whether you're into Kentucky history, bourbon culture, or just want a new appreciation for your next glass of tap water, this episode will change the way you think about what comes out of your faucet.Learn more at LouisvilleWater.com or plan a visit to the Louisville Water Tower and Waterworks Museum.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Water Filtration07:45 Louisville Water and Its History13:09 Evolution of Louisville Water19:38 Bourbon and Water Connection25:46 Water Utilities and Collaboration27:33 Louisville Water Tower and Education

On this episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast, Mark and Matt are joined by Diane Strong, Executive Director of Bourbon on the Banks, for a great conversation about the continued growth of the festival and what guests can expect when it returns to Frankfort on Saturday, October 3. Diane talks about how Bourbon on the Banks has evolved since its beginning in 2019, why its relaxed atmosphere along the Kentucky River has become such an important part of its identity, and how the event continues to attract returning guests from across Kentucky and beyond. She also walks Mark and Matt through the full weekend of activities surrounding the festival, including special tastings, the Bourbon Belle, the VIP Reception and Bourbon Auction, Bourbon Street on Broadway, and the Saturday festival itself. The conversation also explores the charitable mission behind Bourbon on the Banks and the significant amount of money the organization gives back each year to local nonprofits, civic organizations, and scholarship programs. Diane shares why that mission remains at the heart of the festival and how it continues to shape plans for the future. Along the way, Mark, Matt, and Diane taste and review three of the 2026 Bourbon on the Banks Single Barrel selections that will be available at the festival: Angel's Envy Port Finished Single Barrel Bourbon, Dark Arts Oloroso Finished Single Barrel Bourbon, and Dark Arts Mizunara Finished Single Barrel Bourbon. They also talk about The Bourbon Life's role as the festival's Live Podcast Partner and plans to have The Bourbon Life Mobile Podcast Studio onsite throughout the day.

This episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast is presented by Pappy & Co., District 7 Social, and The Kitchen Table at the James B. Beam Distilling Co.

Five Minute Fridays is back, and this week Jake Lewellen pours Rabbit Hole Raceking — a Kentucky Straight Bourbon built around a five-grain, double chocolate malt recipe unlike anything else on the shelf. Jake breaks down what "chocolate malt" actually means (hint: it's about roast, not flavoring), then walks through the nose, palate, and finish to show how this bourbon balances roasty coffee character with fruit and sweetness in a way he didn't expect.Raceking comes in at 95 proof with a six-year age statement, never chill filtered, and built from 70% corn, 13% rye, 10% malted rye, 4% chocolate malted wheat, and 3% chocolate malted barley. On the nose it leans surprisingly sweet — peach, apricot, vanilla, honey — before the palate shifts into stout-like coffee and toffee notes that Jake compares to cold brew or a latte, finishing with chocolate, tobacco, and a lingering roastiness.If you're into bourbon tasting notes that go beyond the basics, this one's worth five minutes. Jake also breaks down where Raceking fits best — from a neat pour to darker cocktails like an espresso martini, a Boulevardier, or a Black Manhattan.Notable quotes:"It does kind of taste like cold brew coffee, honestly.""I do think that this bottle is versatile as well.""If you're a coffee fan, let us know what you think."Timestamps:00:00 – Five Minute Fridays returns with Rabbit Hole Raceking00:29 – Breaking down the five-grain chocolate malt recipe and 95 proof age statement00:59 – What chocolate malt actually means in bourbon01:46 – First impression on the nose: sweetness instead of roast02:27 – Palate shifts into coffee, toffee, and stout-like notes02:52 – Balanced sweetness and roasty character in the middle palate03:20 – Chocolate, tobacco, and coffee notes on the finish03:47 – Where this bourbon fits best: neat or in cocktails04:28 – Final verdict: approachable, but not an everyday pourSubscribe

Welcome back, roadies! Todd and Jim are joined in the corner of Rick House in Frankfort, Kentucky by returning guest Drew Hannush of the Whiskey Lore podcast for his sixth appearance on the show. The crew had just come off a big night in Lawrenceburg attending the premiere of Bo Cumberland's documentary *Spirit of Lawrenceburg*, a film tracing the deep distilling heritage of Anderson County — and they brought a very special bottle back from the event to kick things off. Drew also shares details about his ongoing research into the early history of bourbon, including a new book project that he is releasing chapter by chapter on his podcast as he writes it, inviting listener feedback in real time. On the Tasting Mat: - WH McBrayer 250th Special Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey: A limited release of only 1,776 bottles celebrating 250 years of the McBrayer legacy. Bottled at 105 proof from a blend of 11 barrels aged five to seven years, using the distinctive Bloody Butcher corn mash bill (88.4% Bloody Butcher corn, 5.8% Heritage Rye, 5.8% Malted Barley). The nose opens with stone fruits — pear and apple — alongside a well-aged grain character and a light mint note. The palate is full and lingering, leaning sweet upfront before drying out with oak, rye spice, and cinnamon on the finish. MSRP $100, available at select Northern Kentucky retailers and at Bourbon on the Bank. *(00:01:58)* - Hard Truth Double Oak Sweet Mash Bourbon: A limited release from Hard Truth Distilling Co. in Nashville, Indiana, bottled at 106.1 proof. Made from a mash bill of 73% corn, 19% rye, and 8% malted barley, this expression undergoes a secondary aging of over one year in a second custom-char new American oak barrel. Only 28 barrels were produced. The nose is relatively subdued with mild herbal notes, but the palate delivers a rich, concentrated punch of sweetness backed by dark fruits, graham cracker, toasted granola, and a bitter dark chocolate finish with hints of cola. The secondary barrel adds sweetness without overwhelming the whiskey with char or marshmallow notes. MSRP approximately $60. *(00:17:30)* - Bardstown Bourbon Company Victoria Pineapple Barrel Finish: A finished American whiskey blending 10- and 11-year-old straight bourbon and rye, aged 27 months in rum casks that previously held premium rum aged with prized Victoria Pineapple — with fresh pineapple also added directly to the barrel during finishing. Bottled at 106.1 proof and available only in Kentucky. MSRP $140 for a 750ml. The nose is immediately tropical and warming, with grilled pineapple and a gentle burn. The palate is lush and syrupy-sweet — not quite cloying — with a mouthfeel that lingers, layers of tropical fruit, and just enough rye spice and dark cherry emerging on subsequent sips. The panel agreed this pours like a cocktail in a glass, with strong potential as a highball or warm-weather sipper. *(00:30:00)* - Potter Jane Big Fat Liar Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey: The first aged whiskey release from Potter Jane Distilling Company in Springfield, Kentucky, founded by industry veterans Denny Potter and Jane Bowie. The name playfully references their earlier vow never to source whiskey — a promise this bottle good-naturedly breaks. Aged six years, vatted for seven months in American and French oak casks, and bottled at 109.4 proof. Limited to approximately 1,200 bottles, released during Kentucky Bourbon Week. MSRP $49.99. The nose is light and classic, with vanilla, a touch of apple, and a hint of citrus. The palate is well-balanced and viscous, with a sweet sizzle on entry, apple cobbler, restrained dark chocolate, and a quiet coffee-bean note on the finish. Crushable and approachable at proof, with nothing out of place. *(00:33:26)* Four bottles, four personalities, one memorable evening in Kentucky bourbon country. Whether you caught the *Spirit of Lawrenceburg* premiere or are just tuning in for the whiskey, this episode covers the spectrum from heritage grain bourbons to tropical barrel experiments — all in a tight proof band that made for a genuinely competitive tasting mat.
