  • Cool drinking buddies who know whiskey

    I love listening to Chris and Luke, I feel like I’m in the room with them and it’s a very real conversation about life accompanied by a good drink. I find myself learning a ton about bourbon and wanting to get the type of liquor cabinet that Chris has!

  • Marriage of bourbon and style

    Wonderful podcast that brings joy. Luke and Chris in their conversational style marry bourbon and Frank together and it tastes so good. But that isn’t all. Luke provides a short fashion tip that always challenges one fashion sense. Love the Pod!
