The crew reviews the Jack Daniel's Special Release Small Batch Rye, which consists of five high-proof batches of Tennessee Rye Whiskey sourced from Coy Hill, Boiler Hill, and Fire Brigade Fields barrelhouses. Presented at barrel proof in 375 mL bottles and proof points ranging from 142.7 to 146.1, the special release represents some of the most unparalleled and limited Tennessee Rye Whiskey to emerge from the Lynchburg distillery. A total of 129 Tennessee Rye Whiskey barrels with entry dates spanning 18 months (from February 2016 to August 2017) were matured for an average of 10 years across three barrelhouse groups. The well-known Coy Hill produced two of the five batches while two new locations, Boiler Hill and Fire Brigade Fields are where three additional batches were matured. Forged in the heart of Lynchburg, Coy Hill, Boiler Hill and Fire Brigade Fields showcase three unique landscapes at the Jack Daniel Distillery.
Chad's got a new truck, a new boat, and a lot on his mind. The 2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty is built out and beautiful — Avalanche Gray, Bodyguard bumpers, Mickey Thompson tires, Lear topper, the works. Thank you Corning Ford. Now that that's out of the way, Chad goes somewhere unexpected. Black Springs. Growing up poor. Brown bag lunches with cold spaghetti between two pieces of generic wheat bread. Riding bikes until dark. Breakdancing with J.J. and Marcus and Corey on a piece of graffitied cardboard. A nail through the foot. A wood-burning stove. Government cheese. A mom working graveyard shifts at the Veterans Hospital in oncology while going to nursing school and still making it to every game. He talks about what that upbringing gave him. From humility, to discipline, faith, the fear of God, and what it means to be 51 years old, in the best shape of his life, doing exactly what he was put on earth to do. He talks about his dad. Twenty years this August. He's still talking to him. TChad doesn't have it all figured out. He'll be the first to tell you. But he knows where he came from and he's not ashamed of any of it. This Life Ain't For Everybody. This one especially.

Just last year, Jack Daniel's released Tanyard Hill Rye to much acclaim. On the heels of that release, they surprised the entire enthusiast community by releasing five different ryes via their White Rabbit Gift Shop. Each of these special release bottles are 8-10 years old and range in proof from 142.7 to 146.1. These five batches comes from three different Jack Daniel's barrel house locations: Coy Hill, Boiler Hill, and Fire Brigade Fields. A total of 129 barrels were used for this release, and these barrels were laid down between February 2016 and August 2017. First and foremost, we would like to give a shout out to our listener David who graciously provided the samples to make this episode possible. But, how do these bottles taste? We took a long trip with many twists and turns to find out. You won't want to miss our take on these highly limited and coveted releases. If you've tasted them, we want to know what you think.

El whisky más vendido del mundo —13 millones de cajas por año, presente en 170 países— se fabrica en un pueblo de 6.200 habitantes donde vender alcohol es ilegal. No era ilegal. Es ilegal. Hoy. En el Condado de Moore, Tennessee, la Prohibición nunca terminó del todo. En este episodio: quién fue realmente Jack Daniel, qué papel jugó un hombre esclavizado llamado Nearest Green en la historia de este whisky, cómo Tennessee se adelantó a la Prohibición federal, y cómo una restricción absurda se convirtió en uno de los argumentos de marketing más poderosos de la historia de las bebidas espirituosas.
Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter settle into the Bourbon Road bar for a warm-weather tasting session built around one unifying theme: light-proof, finished whiskeys perfect for summer sipping. The pair reconnect after Jim's trip to Branson and Todd's afternoon on the soccer sidelines, pouring five bottles that span maple syrup barrels, maple wood chunks, raw honey, port wine casks, and even an old fashioned cocktail mixer barrel — each one bringing its own creative approach to the art of the finish. On the Tasting Mat: - Iron Fish Distillery Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Maple Syrup Barrels (86 proof): A craft bourbon out of Thompsonville, Michigan, finished in barrels previously used to age maple syrup from a nearby family sugar bush farm. The nose opens with caramel green apple and buttery sweetness with virtually no ethanol heat. The palate is confectionary and sweet with a gentle warmth and a soft, hugging finish. Award-winning and approachable, this one shines as a warm-weather pour, especially over a large ice cube or alongside a glass of half-and-half iced tea. Retails around $50. *(00:02:11)* - Company Distilling Weated Bourbon Finished with Maple Wood Chunks (90 proof): From the distillery co-founded by former Jack Daniel's master distiller Jeff Arnett, this weated bourbon blends whiskey from three states using both column and pot stills, aged four to six years. Rather than using a maple syrup barrel, fully matured straight bourbon was finished by placing maple wood chunks directly into the whiskey to coax natural toasted wood character. The nose carries green apple, a hint of cinnamon toast, and a subtle forest smokiness. The palate is extraordinarily silky and smooth with very little impact up front, building to a light zip on the finish. A dangerously sessionable pour. Retails around $50. *(00:07:04)* - Green River Honey Finished Bourbon (92 proof): Distilled and aged in Owensboro, Kentucky, this four-year-old Green River straight bourbon was finished by adding a custom blend of locally sourced, seasonally selected raw unfiltered honey directly into the barrel, allowing the bourbon and honey to marry through natural barrel interaction. The result is a honey-colored, notably sweet whiskey with a confectionary nose and a smooth, very approachable palate that lends itself to mixing — a spiked Arnold Palmer or a light honey old fashioned being natural fits. Presented in distinctive hexagonal honeycomb-themed packaging. Retails at $24.99. *(00:13:31)* - Oak Lore Distilling Company Port Cask Finished Four Grain Bourbon (92 proof): From Oak Lore Distilling in North Carolina, this four-grain bourbon sourced from Southern Distilling in Statesville, NC and Kentucky partners including Bardstown/Green River receives an additional 12 to 18 months of maturation in freshly dumped domestic port wine barrels that previously held port for up to 18 years. The nose is dark and figgy with cherry and deep fruit. The palate opens with upfront sweetness before settling into a rich, heavy dark fruit finish reminiscent of well-aged port. A campfire evening sipper, particularly appealing to port lovers making the move toward bourbon. Retails at $79.95. *(00:21:48)* - Oak Lore Distilling Company Old Fashioned Finished Four Grain Bourbon (98 proof): The second of Oak Lore's Story Series entries, this four-grain bourbon finishes for an additional 18 months in barrels previously used to age Oak Lore's own old fashioned cocktail mixer. The result captures the essence of a classic old fashioned — bitters-forward aromatics with hints of orange, ginger, cardamom, and baking spice on the nose. The palate opens sweet and transitions into a bittery, cocktail-like finish that calls for nothing more than an ice cube and an orange garnish. Retails at $89.95. *(00:31:46)* Jim and Todd round out the episode with news about the freshly launched Bourbon Road website, which now hosts over 1,320 tasting notes, all 500-plus episodes, a searchable blog, and the all-new Roadie Bar — a members community complete with chat, event calendars, giveaways, and a 24/7 AI bartender named Cooper. The pair also tease an upcoming event at the Frankfurt Bourbon Society's Corner Rick House during the Bourbon on the Banks weekend on October 3rd.

Jack Daniel's is only a numbing agent. It doesn't fix the pain; it just gives you a headache in the morning while the problem remains. Most high-performing men are "white-knuckling" their way through life, relying on a brand of strength that has no spiritual depth. They are mission-driven and overworked, yet secretly isolated. In this forensic identity audit, Ted Phaëton sits down with Chris Grainger, founder of The Lion Within Us, to dismantle the "Chief Everything Officer" trap. Chris reveals the exact moment his "white-knuckle" strength failed him, following a failed marriage and the tragic loss of his daughter, and explains why your ego is currently your biggest operational liability. We deconstruct the "Meteorologist" archetype of predictive leadership and why modern men must stop "outsourcing" their spiritual authority to AI or institutions. If you are a CEO, father, or leader who feels "successful" on paper but hollow in reality, this conversation is your diagnostic tool for reclamation. In this episode, we deconstruct: The Identity Forensic Audit: Why your body breaks before your ego does. The 3 Most Dangerous Words: Why saying "I got this" is actually a rejection of God. The Feminization of the Church: Why traditional spiritual settings are failing the modern man. The Windshield Principle: How to stop living in the "rear-view mirror" of your past failures. The Lion vs. The Passive: How to safely tap into masculine aggression without losing your integrity.

Andy Allen and Keith Henson have been cooking together since 2010, back when they were competing under the name Rooftop BBQ. What started as a shared passion turned into years on the road—chasing contests, learning from other pitmasters, and putting in long nights behind the smoker. Over the last 15+ years, they've cooked some of the biggest stages in BBQ, including the American Royal and the Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue, along with competitions all across the country. Along the way, they've also served BBQ to crowds at events like the Reno Rib Festival and Stagecoach Festival, and even helped bring authentic American barbecue overseas as part of the development of The Ranch Smokehouse. But most of what they've learned didn't come from trophies—it came from the miles in between. Early mornings lighting pits, late nights dialing in flavors, and countless conversations with pitmasters who live and breathe the craft. Every cook, every mistake, every win added something to the way they think about BBQ. Rambler BBQ is a reflection of that journey. The sauces and rubs aren't just recipes—they're built from years of experience on the road, shaped by different regions, styles, and the people who shared their knowledge along the way. It's everything they've picked up over 15 years of chasing great barbecue, now put into a bottle.
As of April 2026, Jack Daniel's has released highly sought-after "hazmat" (over 140 proof) single-barrel rye whiskeys, with special releases like the Tanyard Hill or Small Batch variants often ranging between 142.7 and 146.1 proof. These limited, uncut, and unfiltered, Tennessee straight rye whiskeys feature a 70% rye mash bill and are known for intense heat and complex, dark fruit flavorsPrav Saraff is a prominent Washington, D.C.-based bourbon connoisseur, owner of 1 West Dupont Circle Wines & Liquors, and creator of the independent bottling label "Dream Spirits". Known as a major figure in the whiskey industry for sourcing rare bottles and exclusive single-barrel picks, he is highly regarded for his expertise and customer-focused approach.

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.

This week on 3 Guys and a Flick, we take a first-class trip straight into the heart of 1992's Scent of a Woman. We break down Al Pacino's Academy Award-winning performance as the loud, crude, whiskey-soaked Colonel Frank Slade, alongside Chris O'Donnell's standout turn as Charlie Sims, the kid caught between honor and opportunity. We dig into Martin Brest's direction, the unforgettable score from Thomas Newman, and legendary scenes like the tango, the Ferrari joyride, and that explosive disciplinary hearing finale. Along the way, we trade trivia, crack wise like a bunch of Baird-school degenerates, and decide whether this film still earns its hoo-ah after all these years. Grab a double Jack Daniel's on the rocks, keep your hands off the 900 numbers, and remember… there are only two syllables worth hearing. Hoo-ah!
Episode Maxim "When it comes to firearms training—there's no substitute for real-time coaching and learning to think outside the box." Episode Summary In this episode, Keith and I sit down with Jack Daniel, Director of Training at Thunder Ranch, to dive deep into the art and science of firearms training. Drawing on his 19-year law enforcement career specializing in patrol, narcotics, and SWAT leadership, Jack shares the lessons he's carried into civilian training and the mindset shifts required when moving from law enforcement to teaching civilians. Jack unpacks the importance of individualized instruction, the role of leadership on the range, and how Thunder Ranch continues to evolve its training doctrines post-Clint Smith. We explore everything from dry fire best practices and common student “training scars,” to crucial live fire drills and the value of pressure-tested mindset and mechanics. We also discuss what makes Thunder Ranch stand out among firearms training facilities, gear failures to avoid, and Jack's approach to realistic defensive encounters. Plus, Jack shares his rapid-fire insights on overhyped training trends, fist fighting myths, and the most overlooked piece of carry gear—all while giving listeners actionable advice to elevate their skills.

Mechanical “scars” like unnecessary motion and bad reload habits are common even in experienced shooters (19:43). Dry fire is valuable, but be mindful of ingraining poor habits; in-person instruction is irreplaceable (22:40). The best live fire drill: Draw and fire one round with precision under a realistic time constraint (38:09). Thunder Ranch's efficiency, world-class facility, and a culture of humility among instructors make it unique (51:17). Mindset often breaks down first unless pressure-tested; mechanics and mindset must both be trained (42:38). Maintenance and correct installation of gear prevents failures, even with high-end equipment (59:01). The ranch's foundation is solid—innovation continues while honoring Clint Smith's legacy (46:41).

This week on the Bourbon Bytes podcast, it's my birthday episode, and whiskey news got weird in the best way. Stitzel-Weller just announced a 31-year-old bourbon bottled at a wild 163.2 proof with a $3,000 price tag. Jack Daniel's is teaming up with McLaren for the limited-edition Halo MK1 Tennessee Whiskey, and in gaming news, the new Steam Controller is already selling out while Halo 2 and Halo 3 remake rumors are heating up. Then I dive into a Byte-Sized Review of Bernheim 20th Anniversary Wheat Whiskey from Heaven Hill. This limited-edition Bernheim is 10 years old, bottled at 115 proof, and celebrates 20 years of one of the most unique American whiskey styles. I went in curious, but this one seriously surprised me with rich caramel, Halloween candy sweetness, balanced spice, and a finish that made me wonder why Bernheim doesn't get more love.
Chad just got back from Tennessee, and he's not over it yet. Good luck getting him over it. Nashville first, from Barrett Hobbs, the Scoreboard, the Nashville Palace, dinner at the Detroit Cowboy with Chef Marino throwing down on steaks and lobster, then straight to Kid Rock's Honky Tonk with a VIP section right above the band. That's how you do Music City. Then Lynchburg. The Jack Daniel's distillery. Barrel selection with 24 people, the biggest group selection Clint Bailey and Josh Phillips had ever done. Drilling straight into a nine-year-old barrel in a rickhouse, lunch at Miss Mary Bobo's, shopping at the hardware store, and a sunset dinner on the hill with cigars and rocking chairs made from actual barrel wood. Hank Jr., Waylon, Randy Travis, and Don Williams playing softly in the background straight from his friend's guitars. Chad also gets into the single-barrel program and why you should seriously look into getting one for your family, your company, and your legacy. The details on that are worth the listen alone. This one's a trip. Pour something good and come along for it.

Welcome to “When Words Fail, Music Speaks,” the podcast that turns melody into medicine.In today's episode, host James Cox sits down with Robert Ross, a Canadian‑Australian singer‑songwriter whose life has been forged by both battlefield and studio. After 11 years of service in the Canadian Army, Robert turned his battlefield stories, camaraderie, and raw emotions into a string of heartfelt country‑rock anthems that have topped indie charts around the world.Together they explore how classic legends like Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard shaped Robert's storytelling, why the 90 s country sound still feels like home, and how today's genre‑blurring landscape both challenges and revives traditional country roots. Listeners get an inside look at the inspirations behind three of Robert's standout tracks:“Jack Daniels” – a drunken, 4‑a.m. escapade in Gladstone, Queensland that turned into a tongue‑in‑cheek ode to late‑night misadventures.“For You Girl” – a playful, chase‑the‑love‑song co‑written with Nashville producer Gil Grand, inspired by Robert's “other half,” Sue.“Better With Time” – the title cut of his latest album, a tender tribute to aging gracefully and the beauty that lies beyond today's image‑obsessed culture.Robert also shares how the military taught him confidence and structure, the ache of losing comrades, and the therapeutic power of music when words fall short. He highlights why buying merch—hoodies, hats, water bottles—means more to independent artists than streaming numbers, and he points fans to his socials (Robert Ross Music, @Robert.RossMusic, robertrossmusic.com) for new releases, videos, and the ever‑growing community that fuels his craft.Whether you're a veteran seeking a new purpose, a country purist longing for that classic twang, or anyone wrestling with depression and anxiety, this conversation proves that a well‑written song can lift the spirit, bridge the gap between genres, and remind us all that “when words fail, music speaks.”Stay tuned— you won't want to miss this heartfelt, genre‑spanning deep‑dive into the life, love, and lessons of Robert Ross.Website:https://www.robertrossmusic.com
This week on the Bourbon Bytes podcast, we're diving into a packed week of whiskey news before heading to Northern California for a Byte-Sized Review of Redwood Empire Haystack Needle. Michter's is releasing its first-ever Barrel Strength Sour Mash Whiskey, Maker's Mark is back with a new edition of Star Hill Farm Whisky, Widow Jane is finishing bourbon in Tequila Ocho casks, Jack Daniel's has a new hazmat rye release, and Four Roses is expanding its single barrel lineup. Plus, we take a quick look at upcoming video game releases, including Forza Horizon 6 and 007 First Light. Then it's time for the main event: a review of Redwood Empire Haystack Needle, an 8 year, 7 month California bourbon single barrel pick from K&L Wine and Spirits, bottled at 119 proof. This bottle completely surprised me with bright red fruit, strawberry shortcake, dark chocolate, oak, and a finish that makes me wonder if Redwood Empire is helping define the future of California whiskey.
Episode 219 of Down to Herf comes in hot with a mix of sports, controversy, and a cigar that punches above its weight. We break down the ongoing NHL playoffs and how the matchups are shaping up, get into the chaos and surprises from the NFL Draft, and take a hard look at the recent controversy surrounding the Southern Poverty Law Center. In between all that, we light up the RoMa Craft Maquette El Marinero and give our honest take on how this compact stick delivers in flavor, strength, and overall value.Patrol Gone Wild this week does not disappoint. We cover an armed robbery suspect who went viral for her wild response to having a warrant, a completely unhinged individual who somehow kept fighting even after taking K9 bites, and a former Alabama football player now wrapped up in a major fraud scandal that's raising a lot of eyebrows.Caleb's News brings the industry updates you need to know, including fresh release announcements from E.P. Carrillo and Viaje. On the whiskey side, Jack Daniel's is back at it again with another hazmat bottle, pushing proof limits and giving enthusiasts something serious to hunt downhttps://linktr.ee/downtoherfpodcastSupport the show

French Food News April 2026 brings together the biggest stories from the world of French food, drink and gastronomy this month — from a potential merger that could create the largest spirits company in the world, to a World Stuffed Cabbage Championship held in a porcelain factory in Limoges. This episode of Fabulously Delicious covers the full breadth of what is happening right now in French food culture — the serious, the surprising and the gloriously niche — with everything you need to know about the stories shaping French gastronomy in April 2026.The big business story this month is Pernod Ricard — the French spirits giant behind Ricard, Martell, Jameson and Absolut — confirming merger talks with Brown-Forman, the American company that owns Jack Daniel's and Woodford Reserve. If completed, it would create the largest spirits company in the world and put a very considerable French stamp on global whiskey culture. We also cover Roland-Garros 2026 and the brand new Jardin des Chefs — a dedicated food destination inside the tournament grounds running from the 24th of May, featuring Michelin-starred chefs, signature dishes and the Balle de Break, a chocolate treat in the shape of a tennis ball that is either the best or most ridiculous idea in French food this year.The episode also covers the 2026 Roux Scholarship, one of the most prestigious culinary competitions in Britain, with deep French roots, where winner Harrison Brockington from Gather restaurant in Totnes impressed judges including honorary president Mauro Colagreco with his Mediterranean-inspired surf and turf. We look at the Le Cordon Bleu London pâtisserie scholarship worth over £75,000, open now with applications closing the 29th of May. And we discuss a fascinating Le Monde article on why young French chefs under thirty are increasingly reluctant to take on management roles in professional kitchens — a significant cultural shift for a country where the chef has always been an almost mythological figure.The episode closes with the World Stuffed Cabbage Championship — held at the Bernardaud porcelain factory in Limoges, presided over by Philippe Etchebest, and won by Frenchman Olivier Caillon.

Joey Gilbert has paid for his convictions. Millions of dollars worth. And he'll tell you straight up, he'd do it again. This one goes a lot of places. Politics, voting, fuel prices, the Strait of Hormuz, Trump; Joey's got an insider's read on all of it, and he's not softening any of it for the mic. Whether you agree with him or not, the man makes you think. Then they get into health. TKO Vitality, hormones, what's actually happening to our bodies and why most of us have no idea. Joey has a way of breaking down complicated stuff so it just makes sense. Somewhere in the middle of all that, Chad and Joey hit a little something they don't agree on. This one makes you want to listen! This Life TRULY Ain't For Everybody, and this episode especially.

“It's as easy as asking the question—do you still have copper lines? If you don't ask, someone else will,” says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. In the latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, speaks with Jacoby about how channel partners can move quickly from awareness to execution in the fast-growing POTS replacement market. As legacy copper lines continue to be phased out by carriers, millions of remaining POTS lines still support life-safety and mission-critical systems such as fire alarms, elevators, security panels, and other legacy devices. While the need for replacement is urgent, many MSPs and trusted advisors hesitate, concerned about the time and complexity required to get started. Jacoby addresses these concerns directly, emphasizing that TELCLOUD's channel-first model is designed to remove barriers to entry. While POTS replacement involves multiple operational components—including logistics, installation, compliance, project management, and ongoing support—TELCLOUD offers a flexible approach that allows partners to engage at any level. For partners looking to move quickly, TELCLOUD's full-service, white-label model enables immediate entry into the market. In this scenario, TELCLOUD handles the heavy lifting behind the scenes—from deployment to support—while the partner maintains the customer relationship and brand presence. For more experienced telecom providers, TELCLOUD also supports a more hands-on, wholesale approach. Jacoby notes that one of the biggest reasons partners hesitate is simply lack of awareness. Many providers are not proactively asking customers about their remaining copper lines, despite the growing urgency. “This is happening to every business customer that still has copper,” he explains. “If you're not having that conversation, someone else will.” The timing is critical. As shutdowns accelerate, entire regions may face sudden demand for replacements, creating bottlenecks in labor and deployment capacity. TELCLOUD encourages partners to act early, helping customers avoid delays that could impact building operations and compliance. Ultimately, Jacoby frames POTS replacement as both an immediate opportunity and a long-term strategy. With relatively little upfront investment, partners can generate recurring revenue streams lasting 15 to 20 years, while strengthening their role as trusted advisors. The episode concludes with the Shots segment, where Jacoby highlights a special Cazcanes Reposado tequila, uniquely aged in Jack Daniel's barrels and available exclusively through select distribution—continuing the series' blend of telecom insight and tequila craftsmanship.

With rumors swirling that Kentucky spirits company Brown-Forman might be for sale, and with both French giant Pernod Ricard and fellow Kentucky company Sazerac both said to be in talks, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss the timing and particularities of this potential acquisition. Does either company have a clear roadmap to get whiskey giant Jack Daniels back on track? Are there other brands in the Brown-Forman portfolio that could be driving this move? Does a publicly traded company or a privately held one make more sense here?

When was Jack Daniel's registered as a distillery? According to legend, it was 1866. But I have questions. When were Jack and Nearest working on the Dan Call Farm and when did Jack come over to the Cave Spring Hollow (the distillery's present location) to start distilling? None of the stories about this distillery match. Some sources say Jack Daniel took over as distiller from Nearest when he moved to the Cave Spring Hollow. But the Jack Daniel distillery supposedly started on Dan Call's farm. So was that 1866 or before, or after? And when was it the Daniel & Call Distillery. Now I have answers. And the story is not what you've been told. What is listed as the "oldest registered distillery in the United States" according to the National Register of Historic Places wasn't the location of Jack's distillery in 1866. So where did this story come from? Why has this myth held on so long? How did the National Register get this bit of information wrong? Join me as I dig into what might have been a true story that was shifted over time into what is now the oldest registered distillery claim. It's a fascinating evolution and one that will lead us to answer another long asked question - where did this name Old Number 7 come from. Enjoy a romp through the history of Jack Daniel's, using historical evidence to recreate the creation of an origin myth. And check out Behind the Lore: Jack and Nearest on patreon.com/whiskeylore for a deeper look at the story of these two historic whiskey makers. Cheers and slainte mhath, Drew

In late March, Brown-Forman Corporation and Pernod Ricard confirmed they were in talks about a potential merger that would bring together giant brands like Jack Daniels, Herradura, Woodford Reserve, Jameson, Beefeater, Absolut, and Chivas Regal. It would be a formidable lineup, which in terms of spirit sales would rival the scale of Diageo – long the largest spirits business in the history of the universe.

Brett Fritz is back, and this one goes straight into the deep end. They get into the Epstein files, what's actually in them, and why certain things get released when they do. Brett breaks down how he sees it. From the delays, the names, to the bigger picture behind all of it. From there, it rolls into politics, Minnesota, immigration, and how stories get pushed, buried, or redirected depending on who's in control. They talk media, government, and the idea that not everything is what it looks like on the surface. Some of it you'll agree with. Some of it you won't.

OA1243 - The lawsuit that was supposed to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation's obvious monopoly over live music throughout the U.S. has just ended in a settlement so surprising that even DOJ's lead counsel didn't know it was happening. Is this deal as bad as it looks? What does it mean for the future of live entertainment, and what will happen if the dozens of states which joined the feds in this case don't sign off on it? Also: An insurance company sues ChatGPT for telling someone to fire their lawyer, the first (known) instance of a DOJ lawyer writing a brief with AI, and Kristi Noem's Marvel-ous new job.
