First up, an update on Uncle Nearest. Things are getting messy in Tennessee with judges, lawsuits, and a brand doing everything it can to keep the whiskey flowing while the money folks circle. 

Then it’s time for a little Bourbon BOLO, with new releases you’ll want to know about: Doc Holliday cask-finished bourbons, Penelope’s new ready-to-pour Old Fashioned, and Heaven Hill dropping an 11-year Old Fitzgerald Very Very Special decanter. Then I wander into the world of sports cards, because remember that baseball card bubble of the 90s? Yeah, I do too… and let’s just say the whiskey world is starting to rhyme with that history lesson. 

Finally, the review you asked for: Still Austin’s The Artist Straight Rye Whiskey. Do I “Keep It, Collect It, or Cull It”? Tune in to find out. And yes, I also shamelessly plug my new book, Whiskey Wisdom & Bourbon BS, which just so happens to be the #1 ranked whiskey book on Amazon right now for whiskey books. Grab a copy, have a pour, and maybe, just maybe, learn something while you laugh.
