Ep 132: Talking Greenlights and Turkey with Matthew McConaughey

We follow up last weeks great discussion with the Bourbon Junkies with the ineffable Matthew McConaughey. We talk about his new memoir, Greenlights. We discuss family, marriage, raising kids and embarrassing ourselves in front of other celebrities.

We of course talk about Wild Turkey and I pitch to him a couple ideas that Todd Grube and I came up with. Todd rendered a few graphics for our pitch and you know what.... I think you'd be surprised at his response.

Matthew was an interesting discussion and his book can be found everywhere books are sold.

Ep 130 Full Time Dusty Bourbon Hunters with Robyn MacAdams

Over the last few years there are a handful of diehard bourbon hunters out there... less than you would think. People who take weeks and months off from work to travel all over North America visiting every single liquor store, one state at a time. 

Today we sit down with one of those individuals. Todd Grube makes another appearance on the show as we talk to Robyn MacAdams. A dusty bourbon hunter who has visited every single liquor store in the state of Texas as he walks us through his methods, items he has found and how he covers the entire US, one state at a time. 

A true and absolute crazy person always looking for his next big score and I am proud to call him a friend.

A good time was had by all.

Ep 127 The Jim Murray Vulgarity. A Conversation on Sexism in Whiskey

As we come to an end in our first ever Pappy Hunt, we reflect on the last few weeks and after the most recent news of the Bars in Texas STILL on lockdown, we wonder if there is light at the end of this tunnel. 

This past week a firestorm broke out over Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible. His reviews are under fire with accusations of sexism and lewd vocabulary.

Many on social media defending his as not being sexist but just cringe worthy. 
Either way this issue hint at a deeper issue within the industry and today we are joined by three women to discuss sexism and misogyny within the whiskey world and how to move forward. 

What are some of the ways the industry can show  and attract a larger female audience without pandering to stereotypes. 

Blair and Janet from the Whiskey Women Podcast and Dusti Rhodes joins me for a chat on the subject over a few drinks.

A good time was had by all.

Ep 114 The most Adventurous brewery in Texas. Ingenious.

This week we see the return of Ingenious founder, Justin Gyorfi. 

We talk about the wild ride Ingenious has been through over the last couple of years as arguably Texas's most adventurous brewery. 

Let me be clear, there are plenty of progressive, ground breaking breweries in Houston but no one, I repeat, no one is thinking outside the box like Ingenious.

For better or worse, no one is having more fun and to be honest... I love it. I love the mindset. I love the motivation. I love the journey.

Ep 108 Checking in during the end of the World.

This week, we return after being gone for the last 3 weeks to talk about something important.

“Hey Guys, This is an important issue that needs to be supported.

In the past 2 months, Distilleries have donated nearly $6 Million in free hand sanitizer to first responders, front-
line health care workers and essential business employees.

Especially here in Houston with distilleries like Gulf Coast, Whitmeyers and William Price.

• At the same time, These Texas distillers have added over $4 Million in additional expenses to
produce sanitizer.
• Collectively, distillery revenues for on-site sales have dropped 60-80%
• These distilleries are NOT asking for a bail out.

We are asking for your help in petitioning the Governor to allow a temporary waiver of a few key rules in TABC code.

Simply go to the site, StillStrongTX.com and fill out the form.

Super easy then share this on your page! Help support those who have helped support us.”

Ep 98 Simple but profound: The Specs/ HBS Mega Barrel Drop.

Please, if you understand any part of this episode, understand this. 

This episode we spend a significant amount of time talking about this incredible event last Saturday and how well it was executed and its ripple effect in the Facebook world quickly after.
This is not meant as a bragging point in any way for anything HBS has done but rather a thank you to Specs for this incredible event that has taken a long time to come to fruition. 

Anything said on the subject is coming directly 1st hand and is meant to simply be positive and remarking on something that is simply remarkable. 
Take it at face value and if you are in HBS. BE thankful.

This week, We sit down with Long time BOURBON friends, Todd and Mike for a simple but effective bottle share following an incredible event this past weekend with Specs in Houston.

This week I sit down with Author, Veteran, Chief Editor of Bourbon + Magazine and Future Bourbon Hall of Famer Fred Minnick as well as one of his co-hosts on Bourbon Pursuit, The People's champ and Part time John Wick impersonator, Ryan Cecil.

We were welcomed with open arms by my favorite distillery in Lousiville, Copper and Kings and owner Joe Heron on the cusp of a massive gathering of Spirits Authors, Bookstock.
