In this episode of Thursday Thoughts, Jake Lewellen breaks down everything you need to know about bourbon—America's native spirit. From its deep-rooted history and the origins of its name to the lasting impact of the Bottled and Bond Act of 1897 and the disruption caused by Prohibition, this episode covers it all. Jake explains the strict legal standards that define bourbon, including mash bills, aging requirements, and what “straight bourbon” really means. He also dives into common bourbon flavor profiles and shares approachable tasting tips for beginners and seasoned drinkers alike. Whether you enjoy bourbon neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail, this episode celebrates drinking bourbon your way while honoring the tradition behind the glass.Subscribe

I first noticed Marc Ribot's slinky, spiky guitar playing as “Jockey Full of Bourbon,” from Tom Waits' Rain Dogs, slithered over the opening of Jim Jarmusch's Down By Law. Rain Dogs was a breakthrough for Ribot, who previously had played in Brother Jack McDuff's soul-jazz band, backed Wilson Pickett and Solomon Burke, and been a member of the Lounge Lizards. More Waits collaborations followed, as did work with Elvis Costello, Sam Phillips, McCoy Tyner, Yoko Ono, Robert Plant and Allison Krauss, Elton John and Leon Russell, and many others. Here Ribot reflects on his robust studio-musician and solo career; his love of Latin American music; the creative leeway that Waits, Costello and others gave him; the impact of producers such as T Bone Burnett and Hal Willner; his decision to sing lead for the first time on his long-gestating 2025 album, Map of a Blue City; and his fight for indie musicians' rights with the Music Workers Alliance.

Supermarket aisles are filled with many cooking oils, coconut, avocado, walnut and, of course, olive. Which one should we pick? Lisa Howard, author of The Big Book of Healthy Cooking Oils has some answers. Jacqueline Coleman speaks with Certified Bourbon Professional, Aidan McCartan, about whiskey, Scotch, and Bourbon, and what makes these spirits so special.

Lance Taylor from The Next Round and Aaron Suttles from Yea Alabama break down Alabama Basketball's dominant blowout win over Missouri and dive headfirst into the controversy surrounding Charles Bediako's re-debut with the Crimson Tide. What does Bediako's return mean for Nate Oats' rotation, the locker room, and Alabama's ceiling as SEC play heats up? The guys also look ahead to a massive Sunday showdown against defending national champion Florida, discussing matchups, keys to the game, and what a statement win would mean for Alabama Basketball's postseason hopes. On the football side, LT and Aaron react to Kalen DeBoer's hire of a new offensive line coach and explore what that decision could signal for Alabama Football's run game, physicality up front, and offensive identity heading into next season. All of that conversation pairs perfectly with a smooth pour of Corner Creek Bourbon, making this episode a must-listen for Alabama fans who love college sports and spirits. If you're an Alabama Football fan, Alabama Basketball junkie, or bourbon enthusiast, this one's for you.

Bonjour and welcome to another episode of The Bourbon Road! With Jim still observing Dry January, Todd Ritter is flying solo in the host chair—but he's certainly not drinking alone. To help him navigate a deep dive into the world of French Oak finishing, Todd has recruited two heavy hitters from the local whiskey scene: returning guest Amsey "The Alec Baldwin of The Bourbon Road" Wenning and David Sandlin, proprietor of The House of Commons bar in Frankfort. The trio embarks on a flavorful journey to explore how French Oak influence changes the profile of both bourbon and rye. They kick things off with the "OG" of the category: Maker's Mark 46. This 94-proof classic sparks a lively debate about what exactly makes "French Vanilla" french (spoiler: it might involve hazelnuts) and leads to stories about dipping bottles at the Loretto distillery. Next up is Blue Note Crossroads from Memphis, Tennessee. Sourced from Kentucky and finished with toasted French oak, this 100-proof bourbon brings notes of toasted marshmallow and oat milk to the table. The guys analyze its creamy mouthfeel and debate whether the fruit notes lean more toward apricot or nectarine. The third pour takes us to Lexington for the RD1 French Oak Finished Bourbon. Clocking in at 101 proof, this high-rye bourbon utilizes a unique wood "chain" method sourced from the five great forests of central France. The group discovers complex layers of chocolate, almond extract, and a nostalgic "fruit roll-up" note that takes them back to childhood. Finally, they cap off the tasting with a pour that's becoming harder to find: Pursuit United Rye Oak Collection. This 108-proof blend of Sagamore and Bardstown rye is finished with Sherry French Revere Oak. It challenges the group with a polarizing nose of dill versus mint, before settling into a palate of tropical fruit and old-school medicinal candy like horehound and clove. Throughout the episode, Todd, Amsey, and David geek out on production methods—from staves to wood chains—and discuss whether rye or bourbon stands up better to the bold flavors of French Oak. Tune in to hear their full tasting notes and find out how they ranked these four distinct expressions!

Brooks Koepka's Return | Farmers 2026 Preview | Kraft Has What on Goodell? | Landman Season FinaleOn the show we chat through the Brooks Koepka return to the PGA Tour at the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open. Did he really call Tiger Woods first to let him know of his return the the PGA Tour? Could it have been Fred Couples? We chat through Scottie Scheffler's first win of the season. Should we just bet Scottie every week? We think this bet wins money in 2026. For the Superbowl, we're all in on the Seahawks. What happened to Drake Maye in the playoffs? He seems to be a little overhyped with the easy schedule and didn't deliver MVP goods in the playoffs. Are we sure the Robert Kraft didn't allegedly say that he was thankful for the easy season and Roger Goodell was certainly not on the Orchids of Asia or Epstein lists? Finally, we get into Landman Season 2 and the finale. This seems like a bit of an Instagram show of Taylor Sheridan just showing off all the time like they did with Billions. The finale felt like a Chip and Joanna Reveal show and it was a horribly written season. However, as long as Billy Bob is in Season 2, we'll be all in!! Cheers.

Send us a textWe explore how a five-year whiskey aged in used cooperage becomes something new when layered with over two dozen botanicals. Kieran Walsh shares the path from wine and High West to Big Easy Whiskey and why he designed an 86 proof pour that opens on ice, thrives in a toddy, and avoids sugary shortcuts.• philosophy of enhancing whiskey rather than masking it• used cooperage to balance oak and highlight grain character• infusion set including baking spices, citrus peel, and green herbs• how hydrophobic compounds bloom with water and heat• positioning beyond the “flavored whiskey” category• New Orleans as flavor inspiration and brand home base• distribution focus on Louisiana with planned regional growth• future expressions and bourbon releases teased• simple cocktails: big easy hot toddy and absinthe pairing ideasListen, like, subscribe, leave good feedback, especially on AppleGive us a five-star review, pleaseYou can become a member and also join our PatreonWhat if American whiskey could be lifted, not lacquered? We sit down with master blender and COO Kieran Walsh of Big Easy Spirits to unpack a five-year whiskey aged in used cooperage and layered with precise infusions—baking spices, citrus peels, and verdant herbs—that amplify what whiskey already does well. No cloying sweetness, no camouflage, just a thoughtfully built 86 proof pour that blooms on ice, hums in a hot toddy, and reshapes what “flavored” can mean without losing its whiskey core.Kieran's journey runs from wine production and restrained oak philosophy to High West's blending lab, where the idea of barrel-aged cocktails and Amaro architecture took root. That background shows in every decision: used barrels keep the oak in line, botanicals track existing whiskey notes rather than fighting them, and the proof point preserves structure in cocktails while staying approachable neat. We explore how hydrophobic compounds unlock aroma with water and heat, why category rules forced a new lane beyond “flavored whiskey,” and how New Orleans—more gumbo than single note—became both muse and proving ground.We also get practical. Expect serving ideas from a minimalist Bourbon Street hot toddy (just whiskey and hot water) to an absinthe-kissed riff worthy of the Old Absinthe House. Kieran shares distribution plans rooted in local love first, then careful expansion to Texas, the Florida panhandle, Mississippi, California, and more. He teases future releases, including older base stocks with alternate infusions and two bourbons waiting in tank—early tasters' reactions ranged from “holy shit” to wide-eyed silence.If you're curious about whiskey innovation, botanical infusions, New Orleans cocktail culture, and how to bridge the gap between purist pours and sugar-heavy flavor bombs, this one's for you.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief sits down with April Weller Cantrell, widely known throughout the whiskey world as The Bourbon Baroness. A trusted voice in American whiskey and one of Big Chief's closest confidants in the industry, April brings experience, perspective, and straight shooting honesty to a conversation that is honest and deep, rooted in respect for the craft and the people behind it. In the first half of the show, Big Chief pours the new Shiner Texas Bourbon from K. Spoetzl Distillery. This single barrel release at 112 proof showcases bold Texas character and opens the door to a thoughtful discussion on grain, climate driven maturation, and where Texas bourbon fits within the broader American whiskey conversation. The second half sees the glasses change. Big Chief sips on Sazerac Rye Full Proof, digging into high proof rye spice, structure, and intensity, even hinting that this pour may have the chops to compete as a Whiskey of the Year contender. Alongside him, the Baroness pours Shakertown Spirits whiskey, offering a heritage driven counterpoint that deepens the conversation around balance, tradition, and thoughtful production. As always, this episode goes beyond tasting notes. It is about truth, perspective, and supporting the people building American whiskey the right way. At its heart, this conversation is a reminder to slow down, be present, and appreciate the moment. A shared pour becomes a pause, a reflection, and a quiet connection to something greater than ourselves. Pour a glass, settle in, and take the ride with Big Chief and the Baroness. Cheers

Just support us.The moment the cork popped on Ohio's exclusive Woodford Reserve Double Oak Barrel Proof, we knew we were in for something special. This isn't the familiar 94-proof crowd-pleaser; it's a single-barrel snapshot bottled at natural strength, and those few extra proof points change the entire ride. We walk through what makes this OHLQ release unique, why the second, deeply toasted barrel matters so much, and how individual cask character turns a staple into a hunt-worthy collectible.We start with the story behind the pick and why staying at barrel proof after that second barrel reveals more texture, sweetness, and spice. From there, we dive into Barrel #5, a glass that opens with crème brûlée and butterscotch on the nose, glides into green-leaning banana and caramelized sugar on the palate, and finishes with warm oak tannins and a satisfying Kentucky hug. Along the way, we compare tasting notes across the lineup—macchiato-rich profiles, maple-and-French-toast vibes, chai and nutmeg, even bright herbal-citrus—and explain how each barrel expresses Double Oak differently without losing the brand's signature richness.We also put the bottle through our Barrel Bottle Breakdown scoring, talk value at $99.99 versus the standard Double Oak, and share practical buying advice for anyone scanning shelves in Ohio. If you love dessert-forward bourbon with real structure, this release hits the sweet spot: bolder aromatics, deeper body, and a finish that lingers long after the last sip. And if you're newer to the style, this is a master class in how finishing, proof, and single-barrel selection can elevate flavor.If you enjoyed the pour-by-pour breakdown, follow the show, rate us five stars, and share this episode with a bourbon friend.

The Break Room (THURSDAY 1/22/26) 9am Hour 1) Just because it's not popular now, doesn't mean it won't come back around in the future 2) A generational toy

The boys review Yellowstone Small Batch 107 Bourbon, something you we could see you sipping around a campfire at the park itself but made out of Limestone Branch Distillery, in Lebanon, Kentucky.

Bourbon in hand, we take aim at a tender truth: kids don't break marriages, unspoken change does. We sit with Mark and Bri, the duo behind Intimacy Evolution, to unpack how partners drift from lovers to roommates and how to stitch connection back into a life run by diapers, deadlines, and depleted energy. They share what most couples miss, bonding timelines differ, resentment hides under tiny fights, and presence beats problem-solving. You'll hear the 4 H's to ask for the right kind of support, why “tell me more” seven times gets to the heart, and how regular intimacy can be the simplest reset button.We go inside men's work with practical detail. Mark describes a free monthly men's circle and immersive retreats where guys move from small talk to real talk, use breath work and embodiment to release stress, and leave better able to listen at home. Separate is sexy, within clear boundaries, because individuality feeds attraction. And we get personal: a mentor's question pushed Mark and Bri to close a practice, sell a home, and move to Bentonville to build a new model for relationships. They explain why classic couples therapy often mismatches the stakes and how their two-on-two coaching with daily support prioritizes deep connection over rehashing old conflict.If you're tired of surface advice, this conversation offers tools you can use tonight: set a weekly state-of-us, try the 4 H's before advice, create micro-rituals that spark closeness, and find a circle that holds you to your best. We want Northwest Arkansas, and your home, to be healthier, braver, and more connected. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review with the one ritual that brings you and your partner back together.

This week, we're on location at the Victoria Whisky Festival in Victoria, British Columbia, where it was unofficially Bill Ashburn Weekend. The retired Forty Creek master blender was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Canadian Whisky Awards and guest of honor at a reception on Friday. We'll talk with Bill on this week's WhiskyCast In-Depth, and have complete coverage of the Canadian Whisky Awards. In the news, President Donald Trump is threatening a new round of tariffs over Greenland that could affect Scotch Whisky, and we'll see how Canadian retailers are being affected by the Bourbon boycott. 

Steve, McNew, Jeff, Joe and Matt M. take some guesses as to why cocktails go so expensive.

Send us a textWhen life gives you lemons (meaning you tried to get a bottle of bourbon to review and it wasn't there when you thought it was going to be), what do you do? You turn the whole episode of your podcast upside down and try a bourbon 11 different ways to tell people how they should drink it! Now, and I mean this sincerely, I'm starting to think that there may be more ways than we've previously considered...should we change it up next time? I think we might need to. Anyway, how about a beer that we're liking this week as well as checking out ANOTHER bourbon, but this time it's one that we've had questions about it the past? Why are we speaking in the third person possessive? WE DON'T KNOW!

Our 2026 Year in Preview episode is here! The agenda? Joshua, Jason, and Jess welcome back the preeminent whisky journalist, Susannah Skiver Barton to discuss: Bourbon -- are people not willing to pay top dollar for Pappy/BTAC/Blanton's anymore? Scotch whisky -- Are we going to see more tariffs if the US doesn't get Greenland? Premiumization of whisky -- is it a thing of the past? American Single Malt -- How's it doing? Distribution and retail -- How will debt affect these players if sales continue in this downward direction? plus more... Thanks ever so much to Susannah for joining us once again to discuss what may come to be for the world of whisky in 2026 and beyond! Now, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation! Special thanks to: - Weigh Down for allowing us to use their song "Wooden Monsters" as our theme song - Moana McAuliffe for designing our Podcast Logo - RØDE for making *really* great microphones - Focusrite for making awesome USB receivers - Olympus and Tascam for making fine mobile recording devices - Joshua Hatton for producing and editing

Compared to the pace at which Hop Butcher releases IPAs, their barrel-aged offerings might as well be Halley's Comet. But when they do release a big beer aged in barrels, it's absolutely worth tracking down, just like the four beers on this episode. We continue our Barrel-Aged Winter with these Hop Butcher for the World beers that saw limited release from their taproom over the last year or so and try not to get yelled at by bourbon Facebook groups in the process. Also, we consider walking a mile in condiment shoes; Craig somehow still has faith in ice cream beers; and Ryan's on the lookout for a Beefy Boy. Beers Reviewed Lincoln Anniversary Stout II (Applewood Rye & Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout) Lost In The Tropics (Rum, Banana Mead, & Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout w/ toasted coconut, Madagascar vanilla and pineapple soft serve) Resplendence (Barleywine aged in Old Rip Van Winkle bourbon barrels) Lincoln Anniversary Stout III (Double Barrel bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout)
