Nowadays is difficult to discuss anything without pointing out the elephant in the room: Covid-19. Joshua and Jason decided "why ignore the elephant in the room? Let's discuss Covid-19 with some recent guests to see how it's affected their whisky-work and life.
The boys discuss all this with previous guests: Iain Robertson of Raasay Distillery, Alistair Walker of the Alistair Walker Whisky Co (Infrequent Flyers), Holly Seidewand of Bacardi, Scott Harris of Catoctin Creek Distilling Co, and Jess Lomas of Single Cask Nation.
So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

In September 2019 The Walking Dead "Spirits of the Apocalypse was released in the US. Was it dead on arrival? Can collaborations between entertainment companies and spirits companies work? Good question. We don't really know but we surely have opinions!

With most humans staying home to stay safe (and keep others safe) it kinda makes sense that more and more people are becoming cocktail-curious! Enter: Amanda Schuster, Editor in Chief at The Alcohol Professor. Back in late 2017 Amanda released one of Joshua's go-to cocktail books: New York Cocktails: An Elegant Collection of over 100 Recipes Inspired by the Big Apple.
Listen in as Amanda talks about the work that went into the book itself along with how New York has changed due to Covid-19. Hear her talk, too, about a follow up book she's working on and plans to complete AFTER the lockdown is over.

One day Jess Lomas was visiting with Mark & Kate Watt in Campbeltown. After Kate went off to sleep Jess and Mark proceeded to drink Belgian beers until 3 or 4 in the morning. During this time the two conceived of a plan to take this podcast hostage and host a show where they interview Joshua and Jason.
Today's episode is the result of a successful podcast takeover. We hope you enjoy!

See?! We told you it wasn't an April Fool's Day Joke! Episode 2 is now here. This is a real thing!
Listen in as Joshua and Jason discuss the expansion of inter-state shipping laws during and beyond the Covid-19 Pandemic. Don't worry, it's not *all* fun and games with the talk of shipping. There are some serious dick jokes in there, too.

Remember that time when folks used to gather in larger groups and enjoy one another's company? That might seem like a distant memory but this podcast episode proves that we did, as a species, enjoy one another's close and personal company, especially when accompanied with a whisky or 5! Listen in as Charlie Prince, the Prince of whisky clubs, argues with Joshua and Jason about which spirit is the best in the world: Scotch or bourbon.
Some special guests joined the discussion: Holly Seidewand of Bacardi (as well as our last interview), Robin Robinson (another previous guest), Bill Thomas of Jack Rose in DC, and Dave Schmier of Proof and Wood (who, btw, is the person who developed Redemption Rye some 10 or 11 years back).

Joshua and Jason asked themselves, "what is it like promoting distilleries that have been around for a couple hundred years providing malt whisky for blends but has only *just* started releasing their own whiskies as single malt?" There was only one way to find out -- ask the person who's in charge of brand awareness for Craigellachie, Aultmore, Aberfeldy, Macduff, and Royal Brackla in the US: Holly Seidewand. Listen in as Holly gets really, really geeky about the brands she reps as well as the whisky industry as a whole!

Quite possibly the biggest name in the whisky world, Sukinder Singh is a good many things. His personal life aside, from a professional standpoint, he owns and operates the worlds largest online retailer of whisky, The Whisky Exchange; he owns the UK's largest drinks distribution company, Speciality Drinks; he runs The Whisky Show in London and co-runs the famous "Old & Rare" Show; he owns a good many Independent Bottling labels such as Port Askaig and Single Malts of Scotland... the list can go on.
Interestingly Joshua and Jason discussed none of this. Rather the conversation led the trio to the topics of Whisky Collecting, Auctions, and Whisky Fakes (faked bottles). Mr. Singh is likely the world's biggest collector of Scotch Whisky (and could well have the largest collections of individual bottles at 12 or 13 thousand) and has likely been collecting longer than most people. This is easily one of the most interesting conversations Joshua and Jason had about whisky.
So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!
