  • Knowledgeable, Fun,

    A show that’s like a great chat with your bourbon buddies! From honest reviews where people don’t always agree with each other to fun blind tastings in ‘flying blind’, the occasional ridiculous rant on ‘high proof hot takes’, little recommendations of non bourbon things to check out with ‘tips

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 427: This is Working Man's Bourbon Pours w/City Council at Large Candidate Herbert Lynn
Q: What message do you want voters to hear about your campaign and our community?
I want to humanize the campaign, emphasize collaboration across unions, tenants, and immigrant communities, and show that practical, affordable policy changes can improve daily life without losing sight of Kentucky's cultural identity.
Ep. 427: This is Working Man's Bourbon Pours w/City Council at Large Candidate Herbert Lynn
Q: How do you view taxation and its impact on working families?
Taxes should be fair and directed at reducing inequality, focusing on prudent public investment, while avoiding subsidies for extreme wealth; marginal taxation concepts should be explained simply, and policy should protect working families and essential services.
Ep. 427: This is Working Man's Bourbon Pours w/City Council at Large Candidate Herbert Lynn
Q: What are your five most important campaign points for City Council at Large?
They are housing affordability with smarter zoning and social housing; energy costs and solar integration with municipal energy options; homelessness with a funded shelter and robust support services; protection and expansion of LGBTQIA+ rights; and a strong stance on public funding for arts and trade education, plus collaboration with community organizations.
Ep. 425: This is my Old Terrell Kentucky Straight Bourbon Review + I Played Resident Evil 1 in 2026
Q: What is your initial take on the Old Terrell bourbon and its eight-year claim?
The panel agrees the eight-year age statement is not clearly supported by the label, which raises transparency concerns; despite some positive color and unique profile, the bourbon overall feels unconventional for Kentucky weeded bourbon and not necessarily worth the price without more transparent sourcing details.
Ep. 423: This is Creativity and American Presidential Cuisine w/Cookin' With Congress
Q: What sparked the decision to do the grandmother tribute episode, and what did you learn from it?
The host shares that honoring his grandmother through a day of cooking and eating was a deeply personal moment that resonated with audiences, illustrating how personal heritage can connect with listeners and broaden the show's emotional range.
