S1:26 #throwback: Mike C. Manning is an Emmy-winning American actor, producer, reality television personality and activist. Manning gained fame as a cast member on the MTV series The Real World: D.C. before subsequently embarking on an acting career, appearing in a number of films and television programs, such as the 2014 Disney Channel original movie Cloud 9, in which he played Nick Swift, Hawaii Five-0, Love Is All You Need? (2016), Teen Wolf, The Call, Son of the South and Days of Our Lives. As a producer, his work includes the documentary Kidnapped for Christ, and The Bay, which won the 2020 Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Digital Daytime Drama Series. Additionally, Manning won the 2021 Daytime Emmy Award Outstanding Performance By a Supporting Actor in a Daytime Fiction Program for his performance as Caleb McKinnon. Lindsey and Mike became friends long before Hollywood and shortly before his TV career started in 2009 when Manning publicly came out as bisexual. In his pre-show interviews, Manning described himself as a "pile of contradictions," and indicated that his time in D.C. would be a turning point for him and the question of whether his family would accept his sexuality. Since the show, Mike has stated that being on The Real World: DC helped him to realize the power of television to help influence public opinion and create social change, and was ultimately a large part in his decision to help found the production company Lucky Mann Productions. We highly recommend checking out some of Mike's latest works such as The Way Out (avail everywhere digitally), The Call and Slapface (streaming on SHUDDER).

We've packed this week's WhiskyCast full of cask-strength conversation from around the world! Texas distillers Amanda and Nick Swift will explain why they decided to make Scottish-style single malt whiskey in the heart of Texas, and why they both gave up successful careers to pursue their shared passion. We'll also discuss the outlook for the Scotch Whisky industry in the post-Brexit environment with Scotch Whisky Association chief executive David Frost, and why he's not interested in returning to Her Majesty's diplomatic corps anytime soon. We'll also honor three whisky industry leaders who passed away this past week and look at the week's new whiskies, along with the old distilleries you'd use a time machine to save!

Andrew has secured a seat in Nick Swift’s Patrick Motorsport Mini 1275 GT. Hustling a Mini around Goodwood at speed requires a lot of commitment so it will be fascinating to watch the former BTCC champion compete in the Gerry Marshall Trophy in which he will be up against the likes of Chevrolet Camaros, Triumph Dolomites, Rover SD1s and, yes, Ford Capris. This outing marks his Members’ Meeting debut, although he is of course no stranger to Goodwood having competed at Revival twice – most notably last year, when he raced his own Austin A40 to second place in the St Mary’s Trophy with his father Mike.
