  • Shouldn’t work but does

    Some times when you begin to watch a tv show or listen to a podcast and your first thought of the hosts is this should not work.

They have captured li... more

Have you ever listened to podcaster whose voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard? You have? Me too… but this podcast isn’t that. Mr. Clean, Adam Sandler, and the ever present Steven, do an excellent job exploring the whiskey/bourbon/rye/single malt space. The sweet gravelly tones from Mr. Clean’s voice soothe even the most cantankerous babies. ... more

  • Fantastic Show - Every Time!

    I’ve been a listener of this show for a while now and it’s consistently one of the best produced and most entertaining shows out there. What makes it work is the chemistry between Kenny, Anthony and Steven. They mage to cover bourbon and bourbon industry news in a way that’s both fresh and relatable. Definitely my second favorite podcast (After my own 😉). I highly recommended!! Thank you for doing what you guys do! The Doc - from The Third Pour
