The Crew kicks things off with Bourbon Life Jeopardy, inspired by Philip's idea to turn a love of trivia into a spirited game.

Our B-Sides include In Country, Mortal Thoughts, Disney's The Kid, and Richard Donner's final film, 16 Blocks. We discuss Willis' early career, his propensity to try new things, and the sad and unfair dismissal of Hudson Hawk. We examine how his acting chops evolved throughout a very turbulent ‘90s decade, culminating in an incredible run of success birthed from a controversial, canceled movie called Broadway Brawler. There's a lot of love for the underrated crime comedy Bandits, that song he did with June Pointer (seek out the album The Return of Bruno and the companion “documentary” if you get a few free minutes today), and the lovely Robert Benton picture Nobody's Fool. And then there's that opening car chase in Striking Distance. Incredible work there. Oh, and that cameo in The Player. And finally, in honor of our subject, please go to https://aphasia.org/ and donate if you are so inclined. Here's to you Bruce, you're one of one.

I share a few songs that I'm not sure if anyone else will like. There was something about quitting smoking and eating real food, but I blew right past that negative energy. It's a little all over the place but that's how I like it. Check it out if you're cool. Support the Show.

A Master Distiller Who's Earned His Stripes Brian Sprance is New Riff's new master distiller! Aside from some good-natured ribbing from his colleagues, though, you would never know it.  New Riff named Brian Master Distiller after getting the blessing from Ebersold and co-founders Ken Lewis and Jay Erisman. Ten years after he started, he is now at the top.  Brian has been with New Riff since before they started producing, joining in 2013 during the final phase of installation. He's been mentored by some of the best in the industry, including Larry Ebersold of Seagram's/LDI/MGP. His story is exactly what you want in a master distiller - start at the bottom, learn every nook and cranny of the distillery, go through the expansions and changes, ultimately learning the ropes on the job at a single place.  His title is a recognition of the work he's put in - remember, this is a guy who ended up at a distillery because he had a non-compete that blocked him from joining a brewery, and had never distilled before. We as consumers are fortunate that we don't have to wait to taste his mark on the product - it's been there all along.  Whether it's playing with different grains, different malting levels, using peated casks, or sharing those whiskies with legends of the industry (Jim McEwan and John Glaser, anyone?), Brian knows how the New Riff plant will react. He shares his story, how he's grown, and - in my favorite question of the interview - whether he would accept the title of Master Distiller if he joined another distillery.  Thanks everyone for listening, and thank you to Brian for entering the Whiskey Ring! _________________________________________________________ If you haven't joined the Patreon community yet, please consider doing so at patreon.com/whiskeyinmyweddingring If you haven't yet, please follow Whiskey in my Wedding Ring and the Whiskey Ring Podcast on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, and subscribe to the newsletter on the website.  New Riff Distillery New Riff Distillery Website New Riff Distillery on Instagram New Riff Distillery on Facebook New Riff Distillery on Twitter New Riff Distillery on YouTube Thanks to our Lead Sponsor, Black Button Distillery  Black Button Distilling Website Black Button Distilling on Facebook Black Button Distilling on Instagram

Today's show Dana Is shook over the stories and shocking similarities, the Hammers, and the Seagram's have. Both families have huge scandals that help support modern Illuminati allegations. I spill the tea related to Armie Hammer that Elizabeth Chambers dropped on her new show on Hulu, Grand Cayman: Secrets in Paradise. And shockingly there's a Victoria Secret Angel in it, which I have some Intel on. I'll tell you it's related to allegations to do with Epstein's relationship with Les Wexner, and using Victoria's Secret as a recruitment tool for models and honey traps. The question to ask yourself today is was Elizabeth Chambers, a wife that knew about Armie Hammers kink behavior or didn't? I attempt to answer this question today while sharing some highlights. People go to the Caymans generally speaking as a tax haven. I'll explain how this works. We move onto the scandal surrounding the Seagram's family, which involve allegations against Jay Z to Hollywood whack a popular musician, kidnapping, sex trafficking and funding one of the most infamous cults, NXIVM (Nexium). Also in the process we learn why the Seagram families empire fell apart...

This episode features Drew Mayville of Buffalo Trace and Sazerac. When Drew was originally looking for work he applied to a brewery and a distillery. The distillery turned out to be Seagram's. In hind sight this was his best move. He began in the distillery lab. After many years of working in different areas he was promoted to the Master Blender. We discuss his role at Buffalo Trace and some of the nuances for being a Master Blender. His first priority is being responsible for the consistency and quality of the spirit that goes into every bottle. Drew is always looking to make a better whiskey with Sazerac's Buffalo Trace Distillery. Today he's transitioning into being more of an ambassador and educating people about the products. After the interview, The Master Blender led us through a master class on some of Buffalo Trace's most coveted expressions. Almost 200 plus in attendance at Roger Wilco were grateful for this once in a lifetime experience. www.BuffaloTrace.com - www.Sazerac.com - Instagram Be sure to support our sponsor ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brewscuits⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use the code fa2024 at checkout for 15% off your entire order.

After graduating from Michigan State University in 1976 with a BA in Advertising, Paul immediately went to work selling radio for WNIC-FM in Detroit, where he realized one could actually make money selling air.After a brief stint working for the William A. Robinson marketing services agency in Chicago, where he created campaigns for Philip Morris and Seagram's, Paul struck gold when he was hired as an Account Executive at WRIF-FM in Detroit. This experience launched his sales management career, and four years later, he became the General Sales Manager for KZEW-FM in Dallas, and ultimately, the General Manager for KHYI-FM, also in Dallas. He was lured home to run WDFX-FM in Detroit, before joining Jacobs Media as its General Manager in 1991.Along with overseeing our day-to-day operations, Paul's main contribution has been the addition of sales consulting services. As an expert in all Rock formats, Paul has helped our clients open up new revenue streams by aiding them in their understanding of how to sell, market, and position their formats via sales training seminars. He's currently focused on helping broadcasters transform their business models from being primarily focused on radio, to taking a more “platform” approach, using content to appeal to new audiences and generate revenue. Paul is a true “radio champion” – someone who believes in the power of branding, and developing radio's inherent assets.ABOUT THE PODCAST: Chachi Loves Everybody is brought to you by Benztown and hosted by the President of Benztown, Dave “Chachi” Denes.

What I learned from reading Decoded by Jay Z. ----Get access to the World's Most Valuable Notebook for Founders at Founders Notes----(1:39) I would practice from the time I woke in the morning until I went to sleep(2:10) Even back then I though I was the best.(2:57) Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography  (Founders #219)(4:32) Belief becomes before ability.(5:06) Michael Jordan: The Life (Founders #212)(5:46) The public praises people for what they practice in private.(7:28)  Lock yourself in a room doing five beats a day for three summers.(7:50) Sam Walton: Made In America  (Founders #234)(9:50) He was disappointed in the world, so he built one of his own — from Steven Spielberg: A Biography (Founders #209)(12:47) The Pmarca Blog Archive Ebook by Marc Andreessen (Founders #50)(13:35) I'm not gonna say that I thought I could get rich from rap, but I could clearly see that it was gonna get bigger before it went away. Way bigger.(21:10) Over 20 years into his career and dude ain't changed. He's got his own vibe. You gotta love him for that. (Rick Rubin)(21:41) Against The Odds: An Autobiography by James Dyson (Founders #200)(25:27) I believe you can speak things into existence.(27:20) Picking the right market is essential.(29:29) All companies that go out of business do so for the same reason – they run out of money. —Don Valentine (29:42) There are two things in business that matter, and you can learn this in two minutes- you don't have to go to business school for two years: high gross margins and cash flow. The other financial metrics you can forget. —Don Valentine (31:54) I went on the road with Big Daddy Kane for a while. I got an invaluable education watching him perform.(33:12) Everything I do I learned from the guys who came before me. —Kobe(34:15) I truly hate having discussions about who would win one on one or fans saying you'd beat Michael. I feel like Yo (puts his hands up like stop. Chill.) What you get from me is from him. I don't get 5 championships without him because he guided me so much and gave me so much great advice.(34:50) Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography (Founders #214)(37:20) This is a classic piece of OG advice. It's amazing how few people actually stick to it.(38:04) Nuts!: Southwest Airlines' Crazy Recipe for Business and Personal Success(Founders #56)(39:04) The key to staying on top of things is to treat everything like it's your first project.(41:10) The Founders: The Story of Paypal and the Entrepreneurs Who Shaped Silicon Valley (Founders #233)(44:46) We (Jay Z, Bono, Quincy Jones) ended up trading stories about the pressure we felt even at this point in our lives.(45:22) Competition pushes you to become your best self. Jordan said the same thing about Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.[46:43] If you got the heart and the brains you can move up quickly. There's no way to quantify all of this on a spreadsheet, but it's the dream of being the exception.(52:26) He (Russell Simmons) changed the business style of a whole generation. The whole vibe of startup companies in Silicon Valley with 25 year old CEOs wearing shell toes is Russell's Def Jam style filtered through different industries.(54:17) Jay Z's approach is I'm going to find the smartest people that that know more than I do, and I'm gonna learn everything I can from them.(54:49) He (Russell Simmons) knew that the key to success was believing in the quality of your own product enough to make people do business with you on your terms. He knew that great product was the ultimate advantage in competition.(55:08) In the end it came down to having a great product and the hustle to move it.(56:37) Learn how to build and sell and you will be unstoppable. The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness (Founders #191)(58:30) We gave those brands a narrative which is one of the reasons anyone buys anything. To own not just a product, but to become part of a story.(59:30) The best thing for me to do is to ignore and outperform.(1:01:16) Poor Charlie's Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger. (Founders #90)(1:06:01) Tao of Charlie Munger: A Compilation of Quotes from Berkshire Hathaway's Vice Chairman on Life, Business, and the Pursuit of Wealth With Commentary  (Founders #78)(1:08:42) Jony Ive: The Genius Behind Apple's Greatest Products(Founders #178)(1:11:46) Long term success is the ultimate goal.(1:12:58) Runnin' Down a Dream: How to Succeed and Thrive in a Career You Love - Bill Gurley(1:15:11) I have always used visualization the way athletes do, to conjure reality.(1:18:14) The thing that distinguished Jordan wasn't just his talent, but his discipline, his laser-like commitment to excellence.(1:19:42) The gift that Jordan had wasn't just that he was willing to do the work, but he loved doing it because he could feel himself getting stronger and ready for anything. That is the kind of consistency that you can get only by adding dead serious discipline of whatever talent you have.(1:21:37) when you step outside of school and you have to teach yourself about life, you develop a different relationship to information. I've never been a purely linear thinker. You can see it to my rhymes. My mind is always jumping around restless, making connections, mixing, and matching ideas rather than marching in a straight line,(1:27:41) Samuel Bronfman: The Life and Times of Seagram's Mr. Sam (Founders #116)(1:34:15) The real bullshit is when you act like you don't have contradictions inside you. That you're so dull and unimaginative that your mind never changes or wanders into strange, unexpected places.(1:36:25) There are extreme levels of drive and pain tolerance in the history of entrepreneurship.(1:38:45) Hit Men: Power Brokers and Fast Money Inside the Music Business(1:42:24)  I love sharp people. Nothing makes me like someone more than intelligence.(1:44:17) They call it the game, but it's not. You can want success all you want but to get it you can't falter. You can't slip. You can't sleep— one eye open for real and forever.(1:51:49) The thought that this cannot be life is one that all of us have felt at some point or another. When a bad decision and bad luck and bad situations feel like too much to bear those times. When we think this, this cannot be my story, but facing up to that kind of feeling can be a powerful motivation to change.(1:54:18) Technology is making it easier to connect to other people, but maybe harder to keep connected to yourself.----Get access to the World's Most Valuable Notebook for Founders at Founders Notes----“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out.
