  • At times I worry about Anthony’s well being.

    Always a great listen guys. Some of the more personable voices in the whiskey world. Keep the good stuff coming. Beau (the idiot who runs “the.suburban.bourbon” on instagram)

  • Fantastic Show - Every Time!

    If you’re looking for a podcast that hits as smooth as a well-aged wheated bourbon but packs the proof of a hazmat bottle, The Mash Up is exactly what your glass has been missing.

    These guys are doing it right. It’s rare to find a show that balances genuine respect for the craft with the kind of banter that makes you feel like you’re sitting at the rickhouse bar with them. I spend a lot of time dissecting juice and dodging marketing hype, so I truly appreciate their authentic approach. They don... more

  • It’s been a year!

    After being scarred for decades, I suddenly went from zero to around 70 bottles in my small condo. I found you guys a few months after I started this bourbon journey and can happily say you were the only ones that I have chose to become a Patreon member. I did... more

  • A Bunch of Chuckle…

    Long time listener, first time caller. After listening for a few years I’ve finally made it through the entire back catalogue. I have learned that the Willett Pot Still is the Lady Gaga of bottles. I’m still waiting for the Old Man calendar. I have also learned that Anthony’s real name is Giggles McGiggleson. This podcast is a great time and the reviews are a wealth of information. If you’re looking for honest reviews you have found your place. Also, I cannot ever come up with a better rev... more
