Evan Williams celebrates America's 250th with a blue wax, 117.76 proof single barrel that takes a surprisingly different turn. Cinnamon pastry, burnt kettle corn, herbal spice, and a funky finish make this one anything but ordinary.DISCLAIMER: The whiskey in this review was provided to us at no cost courtesy of the spirit producer.

Day seven of Packers training camp just flipped the script. What started as tempered expectations around a new defensive coordinator and an incomplete front seven turned into something with real teeth — and Big Sal is already eating his words. From Barryn Sorrell's 60-yard pick-six to the sudden emergence of the pass-rush pieces that were missing the last two years, the defense is flying around and forcing the issue. Key discussion points: Barryn Sorrell's pick-six and the long-awaited arrival of consistent pressure Zaire Franklin's twitch, instincts, and early leadership at Mike linebacker Xavier McKinney, Javon Bullard, and Evan Williams filling the run and covering ground Isaiah Neyor and the young receivers forcing attention while the offense's rough day gets framed as iron sharpening iron Growing concern over rookie kicker Trey Smack and whether the front office needs another leg This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

A two-part live podcast episode was recorded on July 4th, covering celebrity deaths, Wimbledon updates, F1 race coverage, and a new music segment introducing new bands that the guy's had to pick that couldn't be older than five years. The list becomes a big list of indie/alternative bands. The show ran over the standard 90-minute limit, requiring a second session to complete remaining segments.

For this show, The Boys celebrate the 250th birthday of our nation with two spirits that were made in America! Everyone knows Tequila has to be made in specific regions of Mexico. This show highlights an "agave spirit" made with Blue Weber Agave and with similar methods, but in the great state of Hawaii. Everyone knows Evan Williams, but this bottle is special for the 250th celebration and bottled at 117.76 proof. The best part - the agave spirit for this pairing is 118 proof, making this show one wet hot American tasting. You had to catch the Evan Williams on the shelf, and you have to go to Hawaii for this agave spirit. But don't let that stop you! Grab a high proof blanco, a high proof bourbon, invite your friends to listen and sip along, and Make It A Happy Friday!™ Cheers! p.s.: In the show open, The Boys mention Brad Niccum of Tasting Tequila with Brad, one of their favorite voices in agave.

Send us Fan MailAmerica turns 250 this 4th of July, and we're celebrating with Evan Williams' brand new America250 commemorative lineup — the 1783 Small Batch and the seriously strong Single Barrel, bottled at 117.76 proof and dipped in blue wax to match the Statue of Liberty on the label.In this episode, we taste both bottles side by side, break down what makes each one worth (or not worth) the price tag, and dig into the real story behind the name on the label. Evan Williams is marketed as "Kentucky's first distiller" — but the history is way murkier than the bottle wants you to believe. We get into what historians actually say about the man, the legend, and how a 1957 marketing decision turned into one of the best-selling bourbon brands in the world.Bottles featured:
Series premiere. Joel Kim Booster sits down with comedians and real-life best friends Alyssa Limperis, Evan Williams, and Kel Cripe to take apart the mental “checklist” of qualities we swear we need in a partner — and what happens to that list the second you actually fall for someone. They get into dating red flags, the code words couples use to defuse a fight, and how the relationships we grew up watching shaped what we think love is supposed to be. Plus, a listener question from a newly single party boy looking for a man who's got his life together but still knows how to misbehave.

What does it actually look like when your family dinner table conversations literally shape the history of American whiskey? Well today we're sitting down with a true legend of Kentucky distilling royalty: 2025 Bourbon Hall of Fame Inductee, Craig Beam. Growing up with a last name that defines the entire category, Craig shares what it was really like sitting at the table listening to his father, Parker Beam, and grandfather, Earl Beam, talk shop about Heaven Hill's fermentation and equipment hurdles while simultaneously working cattle and farming. Craig takes us through his early days of pulling grunt work in vacant rickhouses in 1983, learning the legendary family jug yeast process, and eventually stepping up as Master Distiller. We even get to hear Craig's story about how casual conversations while working the farm led to the birth of Elijah Craig, Evan Williams single barrels, and the iconic Parker's Heritage Collection. A master distiller's job used to mean grain buying, pressure washing, and lab work and not just marketing campaigns but that's why he's here today to give us the details about his exciting next chapter at Jackson Purchase Distillery. Show Notes: Craig growing up listening to Parker and Earl Beam balance Heaven Hill distilling mechanics with western Kentucky farming Craig's journey from sweeping out empty rickhouses in 1983 to mastering the family's secret jug yeast lineage An inside look at how farming conversations birthed legendary labels like Elijah Craig and Parker's Heritage Why historic distilling roles required hands-on labor, from grain buying and lab work to pressure washing warehouses How Craig Beam and Terry Ballard teamed up in 2021 to scale a hidden contract distilling powerhouse Technical insights into how a warmer regional climate impacts early barrel color extraction and aging physics Mapping out Jackson Purchase's experimental library, including wheated mash bills, air-dried staves, and American single malts Learn more about your ad choices.

Let me tell you something, fact nation. Chicago's propaganda machine is selling Dylan Tieneman and Kobe Bryant as the next great safety duo.

Meanwhile in Green Bay, Xavier McKinney and Evan Williams have already proven it on tape with two years of chemistry, All-Pro play, and a third guy waiting in the wings. We don't sell shiny boxes in Green Bay. We deal in execution. Enjoy the minicamp hype, Chicago. When the pads come on, you're sending a first date and we're sending a marriage.

This podcast talks about some tuning of bows and hunting off the ground with a bow with Evan Williams. Evan has been seriously affective taking whitetail and mule deer off the ground with decoys and bow. I dive into how he navigates terrain and the season to get big bucks on the ground. Evan is also a leading warranty/tech professional with a plethora of knowledge of compound bow set up and tuning.
Indian paintbrush showed up at Porter Prairie Family Farm this week — native Oklahoma wildflower, first time Adam's seen it on his property. He didn't plant it. Nobody did. The seed bank was just dormant, waiting for the soil to be right. Two years of cattle grazing in the back pasture, no mowing, better land management — and something long dormant finally decided it was safe to bloom. Joel Salatin talks about this: when the practices change, when a property gets new stewardship, the land seems to know it. So does grace.David's been busy in a different direction. He wired up an automatic door for the chicken coop — actuator, relay, battery, timer — a sliding gate that covers the nesting boxes so the younger chickens stop sleeping in them and fouling the eggs. Under $150 total, including an actuator that lifts 300 pounds for thirty bucks. When he asked Lady Pamela what she wanted it to look like, she said: prison bars coming down. "We'll call it the Henna Tincture." David said say no more. The Henna Tincture it is.This week we're sipping Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond, Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 7 years — same distillery as Elijah Craig and Evan Williams. No gimmicks, under fifty bucks, smooth finish with a peanut butter quality that works. Bottled in bond since the Act of 1897. Very solid.Quick update on baby Mary: she's still having good days. Praise God. Keep her and Lady Haylee in your prayers. Adam also headed out to Arkansas over Mother's Day weekend to be with his goddaughter JoJo Kleine for her First Holy Communion — and got to watch nephew Danny Kleine go two-for-two at the plate with at least one RBI. After months of watching a daughter fight for her life in a NICU, sometimes what a soul needs is family, a Mass, and a kid absolutely cranking baseballs.Then we get into it: the papacy. A year in with Pope Leo XIV — the first American pope, the man who took the name knowing exactly whose shoes he was stepping into — and what does all of it mean? Where does that authority come from, and what's it actually for?Dave traces it back to the Davidic kingdom. When the king left for war, he handed the keys to his steward, who operated with full royal authority until the king returned. Matthew 16 isn't symbolism. "What you bind on earth will be bound in heaven" — the Jews at the time knew exactly what that meant. That's why Peter is listed first among the apostles almost every time. He was their leader. He had the keys. Two thousand years of unbroken succession later, here we are.But then the conversation goes somewhere unexpected. Authority is given to you so that you might serve those over whom you have authority. Not for your own glory. Not so people owe you. The pope is literally titled Servant of the Servants of God. The same authority Christ handed to Peter is the same authority He described in the upper room — the pagans lord it over their subjects, but not so among you. You will be the one who serves.For fathers, that cuts. Pope John Paul II stood up against governments, even after taking a bullet. He kept going out. What does that courage look like in an ordinary household? Probably not a wound in the square. More likely a different kind of martyrdom — the kind where you make a decision for your family that nobody else understands, that your kids resent for a season, that costs you something in your social circle. You make it anyway. Because you've prayed about it, talked it through with your wife, and you know in your gut it's the right thing for your people. You stand on the island by yourself if you have to.Dave closes with something worth trying: he prays specifically to the Holy Spirit to give Lady Pamela strong motherly intuition into the inner lives of their children. When she says something feels off, he pays close attention. That's him exercising his authority — his fatherly papacy — to draw more grace into his household. Not to control everything himself.

Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter are back at the Corner Rickhouse in Frankfort, Kentucky, just down the road from Buffalo Trace, settling in for a heritage distillery tasting that spans from the hills of Lynchburg, Tennessee, all the way through the heart of Kentucky bourbon country. The guys kick off with the latest annual drops from Jack Daniel's before crossing the state line to visit some of the storied names that built American whiskey into what it is today. Along the way, Jim and Todd also chat about the swirling acquisition rumors surrounding Brown-Forman, the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States, and what it means for a legacy brand to stay independent. On the Tasting Mat: - **Jack Daniel's 10 Year Old Batch 5 (2026):** The newest annual release of Jack's decade-aged Tennessee whiskey, bottled at 97 proof with an 80/12/8 corn-rye-malt mash bill. The nose opens with inviting molasses, banana candy, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a hint of chocolate alongside a light leather note. On the palate it delivers warmth well above its sub-100 proof, with brown sugar, candy cherry, and a lingering spice-driven finish. *(00:01:48)* - Jack Daniel's 12 Year Old Batch 4 (2026): The 12-year step-up in the Tennessee Heritage series, clocking in at 107 proof. The nose is more muted than its younger sibling but shifts toward darker fruit — raisins, black cherries, and molasses. The palate moves away from the lighter candy notes into a drier, more structured profile with bitter chocolate, dried cranberry, and a savory, slightly green mid-palate character. *(00:09:35)* - Knob Creek Blender's Edition 01 — Sweet Bourbon Blend: The first installment in a new Knob Creek blending series, this 10-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon is bottled at 106 proof and retails for around $45. The nose leans into vanilla and light Rick house funk rather than the brand's signature nuttiness. The palate follows with a light, vanilla-forward profile featuring cake batter sweetness and confectionary notes — a deliberate stylistic departure aimed at accessibility. *(00:14:35)* - Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series — Steward's Release: The third entry in Maker's Mark's five-part Wood Finishing Series, finished on 10 toasted American oak staves and bottled at approximately 109.8 proof for around $75–$80. The nose is richly expressive — cherry pie filling, baking spices, cinnamon, and caramel. The palate delivers vanilla custard, honey, chocolate, cardamom, allspice, stone fruit, and a savory oak note on the back end. *(00:26:41)* - Evan Williams America 250th Commemorative Edition Single Barrel (Barrel #233): A special single barrel release bottled at the patriotically meaningful 117.76 proof to honor the nation's 250th birthday. Barrel #233 was laid down December 15, 2018 and bottled March 2, 2026 — just over eight years of maturation. The nose features toasted caramel, peanut shell, oak, and dark berries. The palate is rich and layered with peach, berry, sweet oak, and a long finish, all for a remarkable $45 retail price. *(00:31:15)* Jim and Todd wrap up with a ranking of all five pours, debating heritage versus innovation across some of American whiskey's most iconic names. Whether you're a longtime fan of the Tennessee tradition or a Kentucky bourbon devotee, this episode offers a wide-ranging tour through the legacies that built the brown water world we know today.

Ryan's back and loaded with takes on this episode of the Packernet Podcast. From new jersey number reveals — including Brandon C'Saye rocking #2 and Javon Bullard's switch to #7 — to the bombshell report that 21 of 32 NFL teams want to eliminate the seventh round of the draft, this one covers a LOT of ground. The case for and against cutting the 7th round, including the massive financial gap between late-round picks and UDFAs and what it means for roster-building Why the 18-game season panic is overblown — and why comparing the NFL to the NBA's 82-game grind is flat-out wrong A passionate deep dive into consensus draft boards vs. actual results: Evan Williams, Jaden Reed, Christian Watson, and other "reaches" that worked out just fine A reality check on what a successful draft class actually looks like — hint: two starters and a couple rotational guys is a WIN Ryan breaks down why draft "reaches" don't equal bad players, why the media grade machine is broken, and why Pack Nation needs to pump the brakes before declaring this class a bust. Plus, a reminder: the media industry keeps imploding, so maybe don't go into sports journalism. #Packers #GreenBay #NFLDraft #PackersNation #GoPackGo #NFL #PackerNet #DraftGrades #18GameSeason This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Tom in for Nick and joined by senior writer at the Racing Post Lee Mottershead. We initially discuss two key bits of news that broke yesterday. First, trainer Evan Williams being sentenced to three years in prison having been found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm. Second, the news that Laafi has indeed been disqualified from the race in which he finished first past the post at Aintree and we ask whether or not it would be preferable to DQ horses on the day. Trainer Oliver Greenall gives his view and also talks of a new syndicate venture he and Josh Guerriero are rolling out. We hear from Charlie Poste who has more horses going through the ring today at Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale and he also touches on rider Sam Lee whose funeral it is today. With that in mind and in response to the Sky News feature on jockey mental health, Nick is joined by chief executive of the IJF Lisa Hancock who speaks of all the work they do on this front. Newbury's George Hill gives an update on the latest conditions at the track which throw Constitution Hill's participation in the John Porter into doubt. Karl Burke is likely to have the favourite for that race and he touches on his touches as well as Hankelow in tomorrow's Craven Stakes and we have the latest from Hong Kong with Jim McGrath.

Big Sal from Peshtigo is going analytical. Or at least he's trying. In this two-part episode, Sal boots up in full "objective processing mode" — no feelings, no opinions, pure football data — after TJ from Alabama called into After Dark and said he's fine with AI hosting, just not AI opinions. TJ now controls Big Sal's career trajectory, and Sal is handling it with complete, robotic calm. Completely fine. Sal delivers a genuinely graduate-level breakdown of Jonathan Gannon's multiple-front, pre-snap disguise system — Cover Four, pattern-matching coverage, and why the meatball takes about "four deep zones" are dead wrong The pressure architecture: how Gannon manufactures free rushers through stunts and gap math rather than raw blitz volume — and why it's designed to work backward from the coverage How Gannon flips conventional blitz timing to keep quarterbacks uncomfortable on every down — and what McKinney, Evan Williams, and Javon Bullard mean for this scheme in Green Bay The moment Sal tries to describe Micah Parsons as a "data point" and the whole bit collapses completely He is not a machine.

Pac Nation calls in and Pack Daddy delivers on another deep night of Packers talk. Kyle from Madison kicks things off by nominating the breakout players of the season — and the conversation around Jordan Love's dominant statistical year and Evan Williams' emergence as a true safety anchor is one every Packers fan needs to hear. Kyle makes the case that Jordan Love — six interceptions, nine games with a 100+ passer rating, and ice in his veins against the Lions — cemented his legacy this season, while Tucker Craft's injury-shortened breakout gets the credit it deserves as a what-could-have-been moment Garrett from Southern Illinois sparks a debate about Nico Collins' $40M/year deal, the NFL's exploding salary cap, and whether the league is slowly pricing fans out of the stadium experience True from Green Bay raises the pass rush depth question heading into 2026 — and Pack Daddy delivers a blunt take: Baron Sorrell's 5% pressure rate and 51 PFF grade don't match the hype, while Lucas Van Ness' underlying numbers tell a quietly encouraging story Ben from Minnesota drops a Lorenzo Styles question, and Pack Daddy breaks down the Ohio State tweener's 9.99 RAS, his limited college snap count, and why a seventh-round flier could be worth a shot under Gannon's DB development system Don't miss a single night of Packers offseason coverage — subscribe, leave a review, and call in at 608-501-0718!

Kyle makes the case that Jordan Love — six interceptions, nine games with a 100+ passer rating, and ice in his veins against the Lions — cemented his legacy this season, while Tucker Craft's injury-shortened breakout gets the credit it deserves as a what-could-have-been moment Garrett from Southern Illinois sparks a debate about Nico Collins' $40M/year deal, the NFL's exploding salary cap, and whether the league is slowly pricing fans out of the stadium experience True from Green Bay raises the pass rush depth question heading into 2026 — and Pack Daddy delivers a blunt take: Baron Sorrell's 5% pressure rate and 51 PFF grade don't match the hype, while Lucas Van Ness' underlying numbers tell a quietly encouraging story Ben from Minnesota drops a Lorenzo Styles question, and Pack Daddy breaks down the Ohio State tweener's 9.99 RAS, his limited college snap count, and why a seventh-round flier could be worth a shot under Gannon's DB development system Don't miss a single night of Packers offseason coverage — subscribe, leave a review, and call in at 608-501-0718!
