On this episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast presented by Repeal Oak Fired Steakhouse, Mark and Matt are joined by John Wadell, Head Taster, Blender, and Single Barrel Curator at Kentucky Peerless Distilling Co., for a long-overdue return to the show. Recording from the Kentucky Peerless Suite at Hotel Distil in Louisville, John catches them up on how his role has evolved and reflects on his journey from the early days of Peerless to helping guide the whiskey the distillery is producing today. John talks about the growth of his palate over the past decade, the collaborative tasting and blending process at Peerless, and how the team decides which barrels become batches, single barrels, or special releases. He also shares the fun behind naming Peerless single barrels, discusses the success of the High Rye Bourbon, and explains why the distillery's sweet mash process, non-chill filtration, and focus on mouthfeel remain such important parts of the Peerless identity. The conversation also turns to a major milestone for the distillery: the release of Henry Kraver's 10-Year Bourbon. John shares what it was like tasting through roughly 200 barrels to select the final group for the release and why working with whiskey he remembers filling and rolling years ago made the experience especially meaningful. He also looks ahead to the 10-Year Rye planned for next year, the possibility of older age-stated releases and single barrels, and some intriguing older Double Oak barrels still aging in the Peerless inventory. Along the way, Mark, Matt, and John taste and review "The Phoenix," a 108.5-proof Kentucky Peerless Double Barrel Rye Single Barrel selected for Repeal Steakhouse and Hotel Distil. They talk through its oak, rye spice, citrus, toffee, chocolate, coffee, and malty notes while John explains Peerless' unique approach to Double Oak whiskey—letting the palate, rather than a fixed timetable, determine when each barrel is ready. It's a fun, wide-ranging conversation about whiskey, patience, blending, the evolution of Kentucky Peerless, and what comes next for one of Louisville's most distinctive family-owned distilleries. Pour yourself a great glass, sit back, and join us for another great episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast. This episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast is presented by Repeal Oak Fired Steakhouse and sponsored by Pappy & Co., District 7 Social, The Kitchen Table at the James B. Beam Distilling Co., and Hotel Distil.

Every year, fragments of long-lost ships wash ashore on Irish beaches. They are remnants of the thousands of shipwrecks scattered around our coast, dating from Prehistory to the Second World War. Each wreck has a fascinating story from how they went down to their rediscovery often centuries later. In this episode, I speak with Dublin Port Heritage Director Lar Joye at a new exhibition exploring the shipwrecks of Dublin Bay. Our conversation explores several disasters including the famous cases of the Leinster, the Dorset and the Tayleur.We discuss the stories behind these ships, why shipwrecks were so common in the past and why fragments of wrecks continue to wash ashore today. Visit the exhibition: https://www.dublinport.ie/shipwrecks-of-dubln-bay-exhibition-at-the-substation/ Upcoming events at the Substation:https://www.dublinport.ie/heritage-week/ My guest, Lar Joye, has served as Port Heritage Director at Dublin Port since 2017. He cares for the 300-year-old Port Archive and leads projects reconnecting the working port with the city through heritage, culture and public access. Before joining Dublin Port, Lar worked as a film archivist and as Curator of Irish Military History at the National Museum of Ireland. There he led the team behind the award-winning Soldiers & Chiefs exhibition which explores the history of Irish soldiers at home and abroad from 1550 to the present.

Curator Hotel & Resort Collection brings together some seriously cool independent hotels without sanding away the qualities that make them interesting. New Waterloo offers a great example. The company creates distinctive hotels inside historic buildings, connecting each property to its surrounding community. Curator gives the team greater buying power, stronger vendor relationships, broader marketing support and tools that help each hotel compete—while New Waterloo protects the identity and guest experience. I spoke with Jennifer Barnwell, President of Curator Hotel & Resort Collection, and Sarah Swenson, Corporate Director of Marketing at New Waterloo, about how that partnership works in practice. Sarah explains why independent hoteliers need strong partners, and Jennifer shares how Curator supports those hotels without forcing them to follow a brand playbook. That balance creates the real story: independent hotels gain the reach and resources of a larger collection while protecting the personality that gives travelers a reason to choose them. Click through and watch my latest #NoVacancyNews video to see how Curator and New Waterloo make that partnership work—and get a look at some of the standout hotels inside the collection.

Josh T. Franco is an artist and art historian from West Texas who believes that art history is made by hand. Cultured Magazine included this creative powerhouse in their 2026 list of 12 Art-World Tastemakers We're Most Excited About. Franco actually wears four creative hats: artist, art historian, curator and new Exec Dir of US Latinx Art Forum. He grew up immersed in the ever-evolving wonderland his grandfather created in his backyard in Marfa, TX, full of eclectic found objects, sculptures and whimsical installations. Franco's current  exhibition, Where I Learned to Look: Art from the Yard, celebrates the foundational role of yards in shaping contemporary art in America. His forthcoming book, Marfa, Marfa: Rasquachismo and Minimalism in Far West Texas, examines minimalism and the aesthetics that artist Donald Judd brought to Marfa … and how these intersect with "rasquachismo," the sensibility of the oppressed in working class Chicano communities. “I am an artist with an art history PhD. My practice investigates the mechanisms by which knowledge moves intergenerationally,” says. Franco. He's been an art historian with the Smithsonian for over ten years, interacting with some of the most treasured documents ever produced by artists across time. “I believe that every work of art is also a work of art history, because every work of art carries the past.” As the new Executive Director  of US Latinx Art Forum, Franco is committed to celebrating and promoting art by US inhabitants of Latinx descent and their communities to foster equity and growth, and support its practitioners. Have a Swan Dive to share?

Welcome to Climate Workers Anonymous, where those working in climate share their anonymous and unverified experiences, feelings, and analysis about their labor.Today's show has submissions covering both the highs and the lows. But even in saying that, I wonder if I start to cross my own editorial standards that I discuss in the podcast version of this episode.Someone left a review on Apple Podcasts that made me think—should I be commenting upon the submissions? So far I haven't been. I've been publishing them and letting them stand on their own. I worry that if I say too much I might misinterpret, or point people away from their intended meaning. Or, potentially worse, distract from their truth with my own commentary.One of the other creative projects I work on is Carbon Removal Memes. It's biggest on LinkedIn but starting to stand it up on Substack. I started it and built a writer's room while at my previous company, Nori. It continues on with a rotating cast of meme writers where we workshop our pitches.While I do occasionally have to reign in an editorial take on an issue I think is beyond what is supportable, I mostly try to help people find their funny. I'm not trying to grind my own ax more than theirs. Even if I don't connect with something they made, if they find it funny and stick up for it, I'm willing to give it a shot. If it connects with them, it will likely connect with someone else.It's one of the few rules of making art that I know of—if you don't like what you made, it's unclear who else will. Or at the very least, you will be unable to tell if it is good or not unless someone tells you. That is a difficult aesthetic position to be in.And while I don't agree with the editorial line every meme takes, I don't view it as my role to be the final arbiter of truth. My job is to help others express themselves and make work of which they are proud.That ethos has also prepared me for Climate Workers Anonymous. These are unverified takes people send in. I'm not checking for corroborating sources. This is impressionistic; not journalistic. My work here is to enable others to create and share what they have experienced as true. That leads me to think I should minimize the amount of direct commentary on post submissions.If you think I've made a wrong turn, feel free to comment or send a message. I'm still figuring this out and I want it to be the best version of itself that we can make it.If you are truly a completist, here's a link to Gertrude Stein. I am not sure if this is in fact an apt comparison, but it stands as a thought.Thank you for listening to and reading Climate Workers Anonymous.

It was once one of the great unsolved problems of the early modern world: the calculation of exactly how far east or west a given point was on the surface of the Earth. Longitude was a challenge that sat at the intersection of science, navigation, empire and time itself.     For centuries, sailors had been able to determine latitude, or their position north or south, with reasonable confidence. But its counterpart remained dangerously elusive, leaving those traversing the oceans vulnerable to error, shipwreck and disaster. In the search for a solution, astronomers, inventors, statesmen, and seafarers all played their part.     But why was Longitude so hard to figure out reliably? Who really solved the problem? And what changed when sailors could finally measure their position at sea with precision? This is a Short History Of Longitude. A Noiser podcast production.

Send us Fan MailWhat if a single footprint could reveal where someone had been, what they were carrying, and where they were headed?In this episode of Curator 135, we explore the remarkable story of the Shadow Wolves—an elite Native American tracking unit composed primarily of members of the Tohono O'odham Nation. For more than five decades, these extraordinary trackers have used skills passed down through generations to pursue drug traffickers, dismantle criminal organizations, and protect one of the most challenging stretches of the U.S.–Mexico border.Drawing from historical newspaper archives, government records, and congressional documents, this episode traces the origins of the Shadow Wolves, their evolution from Customs trackers to Homeland Security Investigations special agents, and the enduring value of Indigenous knowledge in modern law enforcement.Along the way, we'll explore the rich history of the Tohono O'odham Nation, the unique challenges of an ancestral homeland divided by an international border, and why the Sonoran Desert tells a story that few people ever learn to read.This is more than a story about border security.It's a story about tradition, resilience, and the timeless power of observation.In this episode:The origins of the Shadow WolvesTraditional tracking in the Sonoran DesertThe history of the Tohono O'odham NationMajor narcotics investigations and cartel interdictionThe evolution of the unit within Homeland SecurityThe 2022 Shadow Wolves Enhancement ActWhy ancient skills remain indispensable in the modern worldIf you enjoy Curator 135, please follow the show, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who loves history, true stories, and the fascinating people who often go unnoticed.Support the show

It's baaack. That's right – a mere 20 months later, we're revisiting one of our most chaotic episode ideas, and it's one where our listeners get to play along! If you weren't here yet in November 2024, you can go back and listen to Episode 27 to familiarise yourself with our totally-original-we-swear indie game draft picking process; or you can just take my word for it that it's basically fantasy football with indie games and that Liam as ever gives a good explanation of the rules in the episode and that's why I'm glossing over that bit… honest. It's not because I'm still a bit confused or anything. This time around we've done away with the framing concept of "we're building our own consoles and choosing the launch titles" in favour of… well, honestly, we just kind of each assemble a list of great indie games based on some loose themes while yelling at each other a lot in a very friendly way, and we felt like that was probably enough? Oh, but this time around everyone gets one betrayal card, and you can imagine how that goes… As a reminder, this is one where you can go to our lovely listener Discord and vote on who you think should win – and also, if you don't want spoilers, please go and listen first and then come back to this description once you're ready. I'll wait, don't worry. … Hi, nice to see you again! Okay so here are the three "teams" – remember to go and vote for your favourite! Liam's Team: Ballistic Zen, The Beginner's Guide, Blue Prince, Crow Country, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Night in the Woods, Orbitals, Promise Mascot Agency, Stardew Valley, Unpacking Rebecca's Team: Bad Magpie, Camp Palut, The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood, Mouthwashing, Outer Wilds, A Short Hike, Slay the Princess, Strange Horticulture, Thank Goodness You're Here, Tiny Bookshop Rachel's Team: 1000xRESIST, Citizen Sleeper 2, Deltarune, Gorogoa, Jump the Track, Mediterranea Inferno, The Séance of Blake Manor, Signalis, Slay the Spire, Toem We'll leave the poll open for two weeks, so listen in for the results and our reactions during our next LIVE(ish) and in-person episode, coming in August! Even though the structure of this episode is just a little difference, hyperfixations remain as our constant final segment. Rachel has – of course – been playing The Mermaid Mask at long last, so look forward to her reactions in a future episode! Rebecca has finished reading underrated dark fairytale The Curator by Owen King, and also enjoyed a feminist horror double-bill of Evil Dead Burn and Obsession at a mercifully air conditioned cinema. And Liam has been happily binging another South Korean reality show, The Devil's Plan. Our music was written and performed by Ollie Newbury! Find him on Instagram at @newbsmusic.

Mike Kelly delivered the 2026 NEH-SHARP Living American History in Primary Documents Lecture, "Indigenous Agency & Intervention in the Bibliographical Record," at the University of Virginia on 22 July, 2026. About the Talk: This talk draws from the past thirteen years that Mike Kelly has spent building the Native American Literature Collection in the Archives & Special Collections at Amherst College, as well as current work to incorporate Indigenous knowledge into library, archives, and museum practices. The history of the Indigenous people of North America engaging directly with printing technology extends from the first presses in seventeenth-century New England to the comics, games, and more produced by the Indigenous Imagination Workshop in the twenty-first century. Kelly will demonstrate how a deep knowledge of traditional bibliography coupled with an understanding of Indigenous history results in a rich and complex understanding of this aspect of book history. At the same time, there are many ways to incorporate Indigenous methodologies and perspectives into our curatorial practices, which Kelly and his colleagues have attempted to do at Amherst. About the Speaker: Mike Kelly has served as the Head of the Amherst College Archives & Special Collections since 2009; prior to that time he was Curator of Books at the Fales Library & Special Collections at New York University. He received his Master's in Library Science from the University of Texas at Austin where he spent two years as an intern at the Harry Ransom Center; he also holds an M.A. in English from the University of Virginia. In 2016, he was awarded the Reese Fellowship for American Bibliography and the History of the Book in the Americas by the Bibliographical Society of America for his work on the bibliography of Samson Occom, a member of the Mohegan tribe of Connecticut. He co-curated (with Carolyn Vega) the exhibition “I'm Nobody! Who Are You? The Life and Poetry of Emily Dickinson” at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York, which ran from January through May 2017. In the summer of 2018, Mike co-taught the course H-150: A History of Native American Books & Indigenous Sovereignty in Amherst for Rare Book School and he just completed teaching the online RBS course G-90v: Indigenous Agency and Intervention in the Bibliographical Record.

In 1935, a diver searching Lake Champlain found something extraordinary: a nearly intact warship from the American Revolution. It was the Gunboat Philadelphia. In this episode, we dive into the story of how a ragtag American army built a fleet of ships to stand up against the British Navy in 1776 ... and lost. But that loss changed the course of U.S. history. So, how did Benedict Arnold and a bunch of sailors who had never been on a boat before turn the tide in the Revolutionary War?

In Episode 675 of the New Media Show, host Rob Greenlee welcomes Cameron Stack, founder and curator of Recognized.fm, for a conversation about podcast awards, creator credibility, industry recognition, and the growing business behind awards, nominations, platform distinctions, editorial selections, and career honors. Podcast awards can be easy to dismiss as another trophy or promotional exercise. Credible recognition can have a much larger impact on a creator, a show, a network, or a media company. An award nomination or win can strengthen a media kit, support sponsor conversations, attract better guests, generate press coverage, and give prospective listeners another reason to take a show seriously. The difficult part is deciding which awards deserve the investment. Podcasting now has a wide recognition ecosystem that includes juried competitions, audience-voted awards, editorial selections, regional programs, platform honors, niche-category awards, professional distinctions, and lifetime-achievement recognition such as the Podcast Hall of Fame. Cameron created Recognized.fm to organize this expanding market and help creators understand their options. Recognized currently tracks more than 100 audio and podcast awards, with information that can be filtered by factors such as geographic scope, entry fees, voting format, and prestige.  They discuss why creators should begin with a clear objective before paying to submit. A widely known international award may bring general visibility, while a smaller award focused on a creator's profession, region, language, or subject category may carry more influence with the people they most want to reach. Example 1: A medical podcast may receive greater credibility in healthcare than from a broad entertainment competition. Example 2: A true-crime show may benefit more from an award respected by that community than from competing across every podcast genre. Submission fees also need to be considered. Independent creators may only have the budget to enter one or two competitions, while networks and larger publishers can treat award submissions as part of a broader marketing strategy. Cameron explains why creators should compare costs against potential returns in visibility, authority, business development, audience growth, and professional validation. The judging process matters just as much as the entry fee. Creators should understand who operates the award, how judges are selected, what criteria are used, whether the process is transparent, and how much weight the recognition will carry with the intended audience. Every award has its own purpose and incentives. Some are selected by industry juries. Others rely on fan voting, editorial judgment, platform data, or a combination of methods. Recognized.fm is building a clearer taxonomy so creators can understand those differences before committing their time and money.  Awards also function as social proof. Audiences already use ratings, reviews, trailers, artwork, recommendations, and visible audience activity to decide whether a show deserves attention. A respected award or nomination adds another outside signal that the work has been evaluated and recognized. The recognition can strengthen sponsor decks, improve outreach to potential guests, support speaking opportunities, and help creators position themselves as credible voices within a category. The impact can continue long after the ceremony, as recognition becomes part of the creator's biography, website, introductions, and business materials. We also explore the larger “recognition economy”. Awards are one part of an industry that includes trophy manufacturers, submission platforms, consultants, event producers, sponsors, judging systems, media organizations, and the businesses that support professional recognition. As creator-led media grows, new awards will continue to emerge around podcasts, YouTube shows, livestreaming, newsletters, social video, and other online formats. Established awards will also need to adapt as audiences and media habits change. Artificial intelligence will bring another layer of change. Cameron expects AI-related categories and dedicated AI awards to emerge as organizations seek ways to recognize new forms of production and technological achievement. Rob raises the trust questions that will accompany that shift, especially when established human-centered awards begin considering synthetic or substantially AI-generated work. The episode closes with a look at the physical trophies themselves. Cameron shares examples from the Webbys, Signal Awards, iHeartPodcast Awards, international design competitions, and other recognition programs. A memorable trophy can become a visible symbol of the award and extend its value through videos, studio sets, social posts, and public appearances. For creators, producers, networks, and media companies, Episode 675 provides a practical framework for deciding when awards are worth pursuing, how to evaluate them, and how credible recognition can support broader media and business strategies.

Producer's Note: While Arts Unscripted is on summer hiatus, we're re-sharing a few of our favorite episodes from past seasons. Carlos Simon is the the inaugural Composer Chair of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Composer-in-Residence since 2021 at the Kennedy Center. Since we recorded earlier this year, his Good News Mass keeps finding new orchestras and new audiences. With its Midwest premiere on July 31st at Ravinia Music Festival, what better moment to go back and hear how Carlos has built his body of work. ----- Music has the power to move a room. For composer Carlos Simon, that effect was first felt in church, where music was both a creative act and a shared experience.  Raised in a family steeped in ministry and musical tradition, Carlos grew up surrounded by gospel, jazz, and the spontaneity of worship. From playing organ by ear during Sunday services to his later work with orchestras, film, and opera, he has built a compositional voice that blurs boundaries: bridging sacred and secular, improvisation and form, tradition and innovation. In this episode, Carlos traces his path to becoming one of today's most sought-after composers and the first-ever Composer Chair for the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Along the way, he offers insight into the deeply collaborative nature of his work and frames musical composition as an act of service. ----- LINKS: Carlos Simon: https://www.carlossimonmusic.com/ brea(d)th: https://www.carlossimonmusic.com/album/brea-d-th Monuments: A Suite for DC: https://www.kennedy-center.org/whats-on/festivals-series/250-years-of-us/sounds-of-us/monuments/ The Blacknificent 7: https://www.instagram.com/blacknificentseven/

So far this season, we've been talking to people who create art. But art also needs an audience — people who receive it, and let it change how they think and feel. So in this episode, we're talking to someone whose role is to create an environment where folks can bear witness to art. Onaje Henderson is a co-owner and curator of ZuCot Gallery, a Black art gallery in Atlanta, Georgia. He joins us to talk about the world of fine art, and who decides what art we get to see at all.Learn more about ZuCot Gallery at zucotgallery.com, or on Instagram: @zucotgalleryThis season of Race Unwrapped is supported by the Kentucky Center for African American Heritage, and by our listeners.

kredsede om sin beslutning.En: Søren worked alone while his thoughts revolved around his decision.Da: Skulle han risikere at pege på sine egne begrænsninger ved at bede Freja om hjælp?En: Should he risk pointing out his own limitations by asking Freja for help?Da: Inden længe tog han sin telefon og ringede til hende.En: Before long, he took his phone and called her.Da: Freja ankom hurtigt, hendes tilstedeværelse gav Søren ro.En: Freja arrived quickly, her presence calming Søren.Da: De begyndte at arbejde sammen om de sarte genstande.En: They began working together on the delicate

stood with shards in his hands.Da: Hans hjerte sank, men Freja så på ham med en opmuntrende mine.En: His heart sank, but Freja looked at him with an encouraging expression.Da: "Vi kan lære af dette," sagde Freja.En: "We can learn from this," Freja said.Da: Søren måtte tage en svær beslutning.En: Søren had to make a tough decision.Da: Han indså, at han ikke kunne skjule denne fejl.En: He realized

discussed how they could prevent similar mishaps in the future.Da: Emilie, der først havde tvivlet på ham, rakte ud og klappede Søren på skulderen.En: Emilie, who had initially doubted him, reached out and patted Søren on the shoulder.Da: "Ærlighed kræver mod, Søren," sagde hun.En: "Honesty takes courage, Søren," she said.Da: "Og det viser, at du bekymrer dig om mere end bare din egen succes."En: "And it shows that you care about more than just your own success."Da: Gennem samarbejde og åben dialog lærte Søren, at ingen kan være perfekt alene.En: Through collaboration and open dialogue, Søren learned that no one can be perfect alone.Da: Han blev mindre bange for fejl og forstod, at kunsten i kulturbevaring også lå i evnen til at arbejde som et team.En: He became less afraid of mistakes and understood that the art of cultural preservation also lay in the ability to work as a team.Da: Således sluttede dagen roligt i det smukke museum i København.En: Thus, the day ended

In the 1930s, with the US in the throes of the Great Depression, President Franklin Roosevelt offered a sweeping job creation agenda. That included jobs for artists, and New Deal programs produced some of the most memorable American art in history.40 years later, another president, Richard Nixon, signed the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act. And like in the New Deal, artists were included and were successful in ushering a new era for public art.An exhibition at the Delaware Art Museum — "Citizen Artist" — celebrates those two eras. In this edition of Arts Playlist, Delaware Public Media's Martin Matheny spoke with the museum's Head Curator and Curator of Contemporary Art Margaret Winslow, and Lynn Herrick Sharp Curatorial Fellow Dorothy Fisher to learn more about it.

Millenia ago, a plot was hatched within the highest echelons of Egyptian society which ended with royal blood being spilt.

Everyone thought ghosts lived in the basement of Stockton, California's old Daguhoy Lodge. So, nobody went down there. But when one man refused to be spooked, he made a discovery that would bring the ghosts back to life. In this episode, we explore how an accidental discovery resurrected the stories of a nearly forgotten generation of Filipino immigrants who came to work in the fields. Why did these men leave behind steamer trunks that remained unopened for decades? And what could we learn from the belongings found inside?  We'll unpack the steamer trunks and dust off a fading piece of American history as we dive into the stories of these farmworkers and their surprising sense of fashion. Guests: Sam Vong, Curator of Asian Pacific American History at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American HistoryDillon Delvo, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Little Manila Rising in South Stockton, CaliforniaPhillip Merlo, a historian and educator who serves as the Executive Director of the San Joaquin County Historical Society & Museum
