  • Booze good politics not

    Like many things today I just want what I tuned in for, history and information on alcohol but what I find is Dan can’t help but slip politics into his podcast thus ruining another great idea in entertainment with political biases.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Alexandre Gabriel of Planteray Rum EP|331
Q: You sourced rums from four Caribbean origins for the final blend—talk about how that multi-origin approach worked in practice.
Gabriel describes assembling rums from Barbados, Trinidad, Guyana, and Jamaica, then employing aged, vatting, and dynamic aging methods to create a cohesive blend. He notes that the pillars include constant blending across origins, vatting with gravity feed, and aging strategies to harmonize flavors from diverse barrels, producing a rich, complex final product.
Alexandre Gabriel of Planteray Rum EP|331
Q: Given that Navy rum wasn't pinned down to a single historical recipe, how did you balance the historical homage with your own creative interpretation when crafting Mr. Fogg Navy Rum?
Gabriel explains that there were seven pillars and a blueprint derived from decades of archival research showing that Navy rum blended multiple origins and followed repeatable practices. He emphasizes openness to different sources, the discipline of pillar-based blending, and adapting centuries-old techniques to a modern expression while preserving historical authenticity.
We've Missed You, Joel Stein EP|326
Q: If you had to go get a drink with either Anita or Juan, who would you want to hang out with?
I just know Anita and we're friends, and I haven't spoken to her in a while, but the whole thing is unfortunate.
We've Missed You, Joel Stein EP|326
Q: What does AI have to say about Joel Stein?
Joel Stein the neurotic anthropologist. Your core move is to try dumb things so others don't have to.
We've Missed You, Joel Stein EP|326
Q: How do you feel remembering those days with Time magazine and all the prestige?
It's both, because I would have liked on a personal level to keep doing that, for sure.
