Cover Songs and Single Malts

Monday, December 8, 2025 • Duration 01:03:35

Imitation is a sincere form of flattery. That, combined with the question of what exactly is a song, and in what form do we recognize it, lead me to this episode. So this week, I am tasting Whiskies from around the world that pay homage to, and reflect the style of Scotch Whisky, while also talking about great cover songs. I had alot of fun with this one.

Old Overholt

Monday, November 17, 2025 • Duration 01:09:52

Unscripted, unfiltered, unedited, and definitely unprepared, that's what thus weeks episode is. I sat down with no agenda, and not even something definitive to drink, and just let it rip. What came out was me tasting a lineup of Old Overholt, a rant about people who play lottery,and some words about my future.
