you know, of course our podcast evolves around dudes like us that live all over the planet and have
great experiences doing all kinds of things and one of the things that we like to do we like to share with you even though
We don't consider ourselves experts at it
I think at this point in the game
We would consider ourselves pretty good at sizing up whiskeys and bourbons and kind of you know, our palette
I think trained a little bit. Yeah palates are trained, but I don't think we're at the level where we could pick out
Maybe we're getting there. Hey, I taste some weird fruit in there apple peel or no, you know
I think that's all a farce. Yeah, I think that's crazy
I don't know I think about it the people who write about these bourbons
They have to come up with something, you know, they can't say the same thing over and over and over again, right?
Well, I compare it to some of these
small nays where they're they they can literally line up bottles of
Or glasses of wine and they can taste them and they can they can say yeah
Oh, yeah, that's a that's a Mel Blanc or Mel Franc grape. They can come
This and it's from the
1994 bottle of a
Whatever fuck it is. I bet you they they cheat and they're told ahead of time. These are the five that they are so, you know
This isn't this isn't the Hillary Clinton debate. I think it is. What is that name?
Donna Brazil gave all the questions. She did too. Okay, and then she went on the Fox after that
Yeah, do they rip her ass which they she did? I don't know but she's not on anymore
But she hasn't been on over a while, you know, it's you know, we're I don't want to jump
Yeah, but we're going to you know, they they just they're not held accountable for their their stupid shit, man
But anyway, so the fun thing is we do talk about bourbons
We talk about life and one of the things we we went to this past week
We went to the Father's Day gift we were given right? Yeah, it was yeah
In other words, it was completely endorsed by the wives because the wives bought it the kids as a do with it
That's right. Well, like real. Yeah. Well, I mean, I know I'm just saying it was in it was
Purchased and endorsed by the wife's do they still they can't give us any shit for it, right?
Stephen found out he gave it to me the day of that we were leaving. Oh, he's like, oh, that's what I gave you
Yeah, well, I'm glad I got you something cool. Yeah, right now. That was a blast. So it's it started out like the fucking three stooges
like the first hour to half
It's fucking stupid
What do you mean? Oh, oh you tell my the trip to get there all the starts and stops and miscommunication
Even before that lost for that, you know it the whole idea and we was to get there for point A from from Frisco, Texas
Where we live to get to downtown Dallas? What time are we gonna leave? What are we gonna do and
Things just started changing. Oh, you weren't aware of that. Oh, we were supposed to do this
Oh, I didn't know that. Oh, well, I thought we were doing this. Well, I got a car
It was what they call a fluid situation. Yeah
So whatever I mean all in all it all worked out but god bless
I mean, let's just share a little bit. So we leave Frisco
Right. We leave Frisco right at what fourth first off that part was perfect. Yeah
Or pick up for oh three for eight for eleven. We were ahead of schedule when we was all yeah
I was I was like right out the door. Yeah, we did no pregame. Yeah, we waited for Jeff
Yeah, that was the whole thing. Very smart. Yes
Yeah, yeah. Well we had we did have one beer
We did have one
Hey wire
Well, but we got down to my son's apartment that was uneventful took a little while to find it
We weren't straight to it. Basically. Well, it was just rush hour time. Oh, yeah
Yeah, it took an hour to get there. I couldn't avoid that. Yeah, that's just traffic normal bullshit Friday traffic
Yeah
But we weren't skaters apartment is a cool apartment that we went to and we hung out with him and we were waiting for
The others to join us right? Yeah Paul's wife and
Desiree and Wes
Yeah drove down and the idea was they were gonna meet us there because we were gonna all go to dinner together
And then Shelley was gonna drive us over and drop us off. So we didn't have to uber correct. So they told me
Hey wire, my son picked it out and I'm like, okay, let's go guys
We're gonna meet him there nice and close to the venue
It's nice and close and Dylan notice what he's doing and I said, alright Sean, you're the navigator. It's haystack. Let's go
Hey, hey wire. Hey stack. Whatever. Yes, it's really close. Come on guys. It was really close
The haywire is the haystack is done. So we drive 20 minutes out of the way
We really I'm really getting frustrated that he would send me this far over here when you're you're pissed off at I was getting
Pissed off at Dylan. And so we get there and there's like a ton of kids. It's a burger joint. They have beer
But it's not what we were expecting at all. And I'm like something's not right here. This isn't good
And then Shelley calls me
Where are you? I said we're in the restaurant and she goes I am too. I don't see you right and I looked around I was like
So so we were at the haystack
Haystack that's right. Yeah, and we ordered some bullshit food and I was kind of like I'm not eating
I know then you changed the whole program again. Yeah, you're like, I'm not eating dinner. I'm like the whole program was to eat dinner
Okay. Well, I wasn't that hungry and I was like fuck
I'm not gonna order a dinner and then drive 20 minutes and be late. Well, that's how we got screwed, right?
So we figured it out and then we drove all the way back to haywire. We did not have time to eat
You know what? It worked out. Okay, none of us
I think it gets even more convoluted so we get to haywire and
We find Devin your wife and the friends and it's a it's a six top table and they only have one seat open
We're like, alright, well, I guess we'll just stand over here and
Well, I didn't matter I mean we're not gonna order food
That's not the point the point is we get there and we stay we order some beer and we sit down on the little
Seating area at the haywire. Well, first off we were over there. We're on the closed side of the bar
Yeah, private venue shared we had to get talked to. Yes
Yeah, the guy was really yes, we what we asked the bartender. Hey, can we come on stand over here?
We're gonna order one beer and leave and he was like, yeah, it's not a problem. Then this guy comes over. Hey
You part of this body you with the tail?
Like no, I'm not what you look like. Yeah, you look like some losers. Why are you standing here?
Any he was just like he's like he's like yeah, you go sit over there the sofas
Basically, I don't want you here. Here's the nice basically that one
It's there right I get it, you know when you have a private party, it's private part of them
Yeah, I mean we got permission first. You didn't know that that was the deal
I asked permission first if the guy at the bar turner were said, hey, no, it's a private party
But he the bartend said yeah, it's not a problem. I had ordered a beer
So he was being nice to but we ordered the beer and then you
Come up and you're like I ordered an uber. I was like, okay. Well
Now that added another element. I change my ticket was in the car
Yeah, the because I was planning on going back to the car
She was gonna drop us off and now that changed on my own fuck. So you're like, oh don't worry about it
I'm gonna run down there and get your stuff what you did you ran down there?
I went down you got the the tickets you got the magnets and the walnut and
And what else you get? Yes something your your joke
All the thermos, which we'll bring up in a second survival kit
Yeah, so you show up and so I'm like, all right, I grab that that that that and we the uber shows up we hop
In there our chug our beer. We chugged a beer it chunks like I'm not gonna slam up here that fast
All right shot don't what is the Austrian?
Whatever so we get we get in the uber and we're we get about halfway there and I because I carried all the shit to the
Car, I'm just like, oh my god. I got magnets. I was trying to distribute
Yes, that's what it was. You were so excited. You're like, oh, I've got my man
Give out our man. You're like, oh my god
Yeah, he acted like a nine-year-old kid that was panicking at ants all over his voice went up like eight octaves
So I call Shelly I said that was painful
I was like they were sitting at the sofa right on the other side the door what door what do you mean?
What door?
There's only one door. There's only two sofas and she goes. Oh, yeah, there's a phone on the table here. I was like
Fuck
Yeah, well, that's good. There was there's a millennium Falcon Star Wars. It's gotta be yes totally
And by the way, the uber driver was super cool. Yeah, I think he was straight from Africa and he was laughing his ass off
Don't know
You say that he had an accent that sounded like he was from Africa and he was black. I
Mean, they've got white people in Africa in South Africa
They they've but they have it but here's the thing he was Egypt is an African. He was so happy
Yeah, he was fun. He was so happy and he was listening to country music. He knew all the words. He was singing along
I thought I heard I heard him singing like if you like a
Russian accent like he was straight from Russia
I honestly thought he was just being a good uber driver and catering to us dude
He but he started belting out the song. He was so happy. Yeah, he was singing the picture
I took a picture of all of us. He had the biggest smile ever. He did he was happy and fucking Jeff
Was all I mean the look folks first of all, we're in a five-seater. Okay, I weaseled myself up front
So I had plenty of room, but she got yeah, did you notice how he did that? Yeah. Yeah, he was like, okay
Let's go
In the front seat. Yeah, I guess we're all in the back. What happened to shotgun like, you know rock-paper-scissors shotgun
Yeah, I look at you guys and Jeff's in the middle and then Paul and Chuck are all like scrunched on the side
And everyone's all sausage II. Yeah, I was being like totally overwhelmed. I was crushed in there. It was very hot
He was sweating all over my
Humid it was my my butt crack filled up with sweat. I was so crammed in there
It had nowhere to go. It was overflowing into my like, you know
It was so uncomfortable because you know, the hairs were meshing in the arm. Yes, she's was humid
I was just like finally Paul just kind of
Yeah, our arm hair themselves a weird way. So we weren't touching our arms were like Velcroed
When I when I pulled away was like
Sleeved yeah, it was it was bad. Anyway, we told him I'm sorry. We have to get Sean's phone
Can you turn around and let's go all the way back? I'd say he was an aggressive driver. He was like, yeah
No, he would he just turn around the middle of the road. He's like slut. He's already coming in every direction
He got it going to about 60 down
I got a 30 yard strip and slammed on the brake did a 180
So anyways, you know, we're to the goal was to get there 15 minutes part of the venue opening
We've got their rate at about five till right. No, we got there 15 minutes till it was I was a little bit late
It was actually perfect. It was
But there was an exceptionally long line. Yeah, so we get to the event
Another line downtown Dallas. It's the wisdom the world of whiskeys in downtown Dallas the annual one and is that the Thompson Hotel?
It was at the Thompson. I had I had never been there. No the Thompson. Very nice. It was nice
So look folks here. Here's what I did to prepare for this thing
So I was thinking, you know, we got to be extra the whole thing is I want to be extra you guys like to say
I say we so I said well, you know, I want to create an infinity bottle and kind of
Captured the moment a little bit because it's like the perfect opportunity. I was thinking to myself
Oh my god, there's gonna be a hundred because it says 150 right? Yeah, I call bullshit on that
Yeah, it was kind of bullshit, but it whatever there was a lot there. I mean there were 25 vendors out there 30 maybe
I don't know if there was that many I was underwhelmed to put it that way. Yeah, I was too. I first walked in I was like
Really? It was a room. Yes, so it was cool, but it certainly wasn't worth the money
No, I agree. I think it was it could have been a $50 and I would have been fine. I
Will tell you this I I saw a couple there that we we met during the
The the garrison brothers tasting it was her name was Ashley
I believe and Jesse and I was kind of like what the hell man were you guys were?
What's going on? Is that the front door? No, okay. Sorry. Shelly's coming over real quick. Give me something anyway continue. Oh, okay
so
Anyways, we met them at the the garrison brothers kind of you know
They were at the you actually talked to them Paul at total wine
We because we went in one time and the people were asking about tequila and you answer
She got pink hair. That's how I kind of remember her and I remember her her husband or boyfriend
Whatever. He's got a lot of accessories, you know the rings and stuff. I'm gonna retro
Yeah, yeah, you're talking about the garrison brothers, right? This was the garrison brothers
But he was also at the the whiskey event, which I thought was kind of like, oh, well, that's cool
So I was like, hey, how you doing? I gave a little dudes like us podcast magnet
But was he the one that you talked and talked and talked and the people were talking and the people just standing there
Waiting and waiting and waiting. I don't remember that when you know
Yahoo's at the end that you were like
Somebody shit I
Do no, no, no, I did the guy I left the line member. I was like, dude
No, this is at the very end when we started to these guys
We were standing in a line where these guys were just yapping it up and like the line. I hold up back up back up back up
So so you gotta remember I had I anticipated
gathering a bunch of
Of
An affinity bottle so I bought a half gallon of
Thermos and I was like, all right. Well, I need to get the bourbon into the thermos
And so I I bought these little funnels these little metal funnels and I did some research
I was looking at the diameter of the funnels
How wide are they how long is the stem and I found one that's perfect and it fits perfectly in the straw of the thermos
So, you know if you check on the dudes like us
Instagram
Podcast page. Yeah, there's a thermos for those people that are wondering what the heck of that was all over the place
So we got the picture of the thermos there
So anyways, we go up to the the booths cuz they had I don't know 20 30
However, maybe we're there and I was like, alright
Well, you know fill up the glass and then I dump almost all of it
Honestly almost all of it and I had just enough to give a little taste and then I would taste the next one
I dump it taste the next one and everyone's kind of like, you know
They were they were like what they were looking at me strangely like, you know, what the fuck are you doing?
You are such an odd motherfucker, you know
Well, I think what was going through their mind is is he allowed to do this
Some people were I think that was probably that was like wait a minute. It's just allowed
I bet you start seeing those at future whiskey
Well, I started a I started a new thing like the pretzel necklace
Yeah, well, you know what? I I'm gonna do it during the next one and it's just gonna be one of those things
Yeah. Hey Paul, did you get some batteries delivered? Oh your shirt
Oh
Nice see it. Yeah, he brought you trumped 2024
They make that shit so fast. Yeah, that's the picture I said it's gonna be well the flags not right, but yeah
Yeah, I've got the I've got the real one where the flags perfectly
But you see the one I've got yesterday before yours
Yeah, I chose this one because I thought that flag with the cool in the shirt. So anyway, I got mine Saturday
Yeah, did you really? Oh, all right. Sorry that what happened?
Yeah, she up to one hour. Jesus amazing. So we are so we're we're I'm hitting all these
You know, it's strange enough man. It was difficult to stay together
Well, it's like a suzzy one in there Chuck when I don't know where he went
Yeah, he like vanished vanished and then
I think we stuck together for about maybe five minutes
And then you disappeared when you hooked up with someone from work that Paul and I were yeah our thing probably most of the time
You and I hung out most of the night. Oh, it's just Paul and I so I don't know. Yeah, we just kind of
Ricochet off and did our thing which is fine, you know
Yeah, but it was a little different
But it was fun and I was I kind of proud of all of us none of us
I mean given how the last tasting went right we showed we showed little restraints
Yeah, you know in a little bit of a you know, I don't know which call it. But anyway, so yeah, so
I was worried that someone eventually was gonna walk up to Sean and be like
Yeah, you can't do that with that
I know that's what we were talking about is and he no one did people were giving him the side eye
And I think some people are going is he allowed to do that?
Of course. Yeah, of course was not allowed to do that at all
But I know this friend of mine was like, oh my god, I'm sorry
I was not allowed to do that at all. But I don't know this but no one said anything
There's probably no rule because no one's ever done it. Yeah, that's kind of what everyone was kind of saying
There was like well, no one's done this before but what I also told them was that well, you know what?
It's my spittoon and there's nothing wrong with that, you know, cuz not you know, yeah, but did anybody question you like why you doing that?
Or are you allowed to do that almost all of them? They were like, what is that?
Okay, but that but asking what that is and saying yeah, you know why why several?
There were plenty of people that said are you allowed to do that? Okay, you know and I was kind of like why wouldn't I?
I mean if I keep it in my stomach or keep it in the barrel, it's still gonna be drank, you know, right?
But after so I went around I went around the whole thing that did a cycle and
And the little thermos was getting heavier and I was kind of this is very exciting and
Then they they whipped out with the whiskey world of whiskey so a festival they whipped out with some hors d'oeuvres
They started walking around with these little yeah little chunks of morsels of love
But when they when they set out the the full deal, I was like the timing was perfect because I needed it
You know, I was a little just I would I want to say disgruntled but I had waited in line to get one of those steak sandwiches
You know burgers. Well, whatever, you know, I went in line and then when I buy the time I get there they were all out
Oh, yeah, I was like motherfucker. And so I was like, all right, so I just got out waiting them went to the cheese areas
But I need a bunch of fucking cheese aslamis and then they you get a fish taco. No, I went back
I mean they brought more out it just took a while. I was kind of you know
I was kind of disappointed with the I wasn't disappointed with the food quality. The food quality was great
I was disappointed with the food program because they were they brought out like these cheese trays and lots of meats and
Fruits and stuff. It was really nice looking but they didn't give me a fucking tongs
No, I was kind of how can you serve you food like that? They had a they had a big fruit platter with one pair of tongs
Yes, so it's like I was going and I was like fuck I need to go fat
Oh the guy before me was like feeling the pressure and then and then I was feeling the pressure
You know what I mean? It was like and then some other people just walked up and like fuck it
Just stuck their hands in there. Yeah, and that's kind of I mean it was just I mean from that perspective
And then you know, I was told this guy came out should know better than this
Yeah, they yeah, they should have been on that especially of that caliber, but I will tell you
They came back and then there were four tongs on the on the fruit thing. Why bitch? Yeah, somebody came out
I mean, yeah, I bitched I went to a manager. Oh, did you? Yeah, I laid it down
I was like dude, seriously, we got an event that would pay 200 bucks a pop for and we got to fucking pick up
The food with our fingers. Did you really fuck? Yeah, I did good for you if you and then they're like, what's that bottle on your hip?
It's my sir. You're gonna need to dump that out immediately or leave a urinate in this. This is I have a condition
Oh, I like your nation. That's my colostomy bag. I like it. This little funnel is the perfect size
I wonder what they would if you had said that they were just like go I
I don't think they care. Nobody cares. Not really. I mean and look if anyone asked me that of authority all I said was it's a
Spittoon. It's like look, I don't drink the whole thing. I dumped the rest in here. Okay, sue me. Right? What do you want?
You only know it out now. I'll fucking dump it out now. It's all good
You were so excited when it came and you were so excited when the funnel dude man fit the straw or whatever
It was amazing cuz I was thinking man. How am I gonna get I was thinking I'm gonna have to heat it up and kind of
Over stress it and it fits snug. Everything was perfect and we feel I filled it up by damn near filled up
Almost more than three-quarters of a half gallon little vessel. What did you go back and go? Hey, you might pour some in there
Well, that's just it. I did it was I went around two three four times. Yeah, I saw somebody put a whole glass in there
Oh, that was you know, oh, no, absolutely not. No, it was one of the people behind the tables
Oh, yeah, they did in fact
I ended up screwing off the top and there were several people that just dump straight in there and they would write they picked up all
Four bottles like one two, three one. They were doing long pours. Yeah, I went to uncle Henry's or uncle nearest nearest
Whatever fuck it's called and they they did it about it. Look I got everybody, you know
Everyone was was they were like man. That is a badass idea. Everyone was like I can't believe it
It was overall set those doctors at the end. They were kind of decks
They were who were they giving shit when they give it shit to you Paul. Oh, that's right
So so here's the deal. Those are the yahoos that held up garrison. I
Was the same guy they were there for like five minutes and I was like seriously
I mean, yeah Jeff was all balls. He was like, hey, there's people back here
Yeah, I started yes, I think it was ridiculous. They were just standing there talking the whole time
And the guy that's behind the table should should be like guys. I appreciate it, you know, let's you know
Let's I gotta move on here, but he was just like hamming it up with him, right?
No, but at the end of the night you guys were like, oh how many magnets can have left?
I had all mine, right? Right. And so I like shit. Okay, I'll do what I did in filtered, right?
I'll go out into the street and just start talking to people
So I went up to a group of four guys and I was like, hey
I don't know if you listen to podcasts, but you know, this is our podcast shame with plug blah blah blah
And I they were awesome
like they were like laughing about it and asked me all about it and all this kind of stuff and then I went to
That second group and it was the tall guy. He was a fucking dick, right?
And you know somehow we I said we talk about movies we talk about this
We just talk about everything and somehow they asked me have you seen Animal House and I said, you know, it's funny
Just last week guys were giving me shit about it
That's one movie I haven't seen and he he takes the magnet and he puts it back in my in my shirt pocket says
Yeah, I'm not I have no interest in you know what I mean?
And I was like man, don't do that. Don't do that
I mean, I was kind of just you know kind of messing with him
But the other two the other three guys were fine. It was that tall guy who was being a dick. Yeah
Here comes Sean
You know you you you so they were kind of hostile
I mean he was hostile which made the rest of them kind of standoffish and then you walk up. Hey guys, what's going on?
And then then somehow you you you worked your pics. I just meld them
I was like because he did he was talking he doesn't even know about a what movie was it animal house and I was like
Germans
The Germans bombed Pearl Harbor and I was like Germans forget about him. Yeah, I started quoting parts
Yeah
Because when I get stuff the tough gets going who's with me here, right? Right, you know, I did that
They were like, oh well, I get validated now. Yes, and it made that back. Yeah, right. Well, no, I gave it back
Don't throw it like that. He would but you know what some guys just like to fuck with other people
Yeah, so I don't call narcissist. I don't necessarily think he was
He certainly came off as being a conceited prick. Yeah, but whatever, you know people are different, you know, but anyway overall
It was a fun night. I think we had a pretty good buzz leaving there
you know, I felt and then we I was extremely worried when we got there because of the the the the the whiskey trail in
Plano when we got blown up. Yes, you know the fourth booth of
You know, it's like good Lord. Yeah, like I said earlier
I was proud of us for for being in control and I'll tell you one thing that helped is there was a lot of water
I was drinking lots of water with me too. I was pounding the water. I didn't see any water. It was all over the
Seriously your water stations all around the room
I I mean I took some of the pit water pitchers and I kind of filled my glass up
But there were small ones man on it. You guys drank way more than I did there. I saw water or whiskey whiskey
Oh, yeah, I'm sure we did. Yeah. I mean you guys I mean because I've never seen Jeff steal something
Yeah, Jeff was like he keistered a whole bottle of bourbon. So let's talk about that
So that we're we're at the end with everybody else and the people are like closing up shop
Right. They're all putting their stuff into their bags and they're closing up the tables and this group completely left their table
They were gone. But I mean if you've ever done those what type of shows those call forget the marketing shows
If you have to set up an event where you got a presentation
You got a presentation you get the backdrop and you know the last thing if they get abandoned they will they don't give a fuck
So if it's if it's like we go there was a time where I went to the Benny Keith food show
We're right. You get all these restaurant people that own restaurants and and little shops and they come in they pick out and they're trying
To sell all their products. Hey, this is all the stuff that we can offer, right?
You know, it's the same thing but at the end of that
event
They they just give away all their they don't want to have it back it up again
What I just say here man, we got cans of tomato sauce. We got pasta
Because they have another couple of boxes for the next event. Yeah, they don't care because they're kind of hey
Just take it all they abandon it
They don't want to deal with it
They take their marketing tools with them and they leave all the stuff and everyone's like things
I mean when I went to those things I was like fuck this is awesome
I came home with all sorts of shit with boxes and boxes of crazy stuff that lasted forever. It's perfect
Same thing with that. So you guys I mean
Yeah, they they did they packed up they left and they were what three bottles sitting on the table
There was like 12. Yeah about 12 bottles laying there and you're like, okay
Oh, I watched them and they left and I was made sure they weren't coming back and I went up there
I was like, you know, they well, you know, you were like Paul creative version. So I started helicoptering
No, and then you grab the bottle go run run run we sat there somehow I had to carry it out
I don't know what the hell was that I have no idea how you get I don't know really you carried it out of the hotel
Yeah, I was one I had a carry. I was like, well, how did I get this? I just got whatever
It's downstairs. Well, we met a lot of people we did
Fun there was you know the body interest I didn't get a chance
I don't think we talked. Yeah, we talked podcast. Actually we did we talked to
the
Who's the chick? Oh, uh
Yeah, her amber on it the rd1 Elizabeth. Yes. Yeah, Elizabeth. She was we talked very she was awesome
We talked to her for quite a while
we'll see if it happens, but she said that she's gonna be able to send us a a bottle of the
double barreled
Product. Oh very nice. Yeah, cuz we were talking about they have a unique product that we talked about last week. I think
It's the rd1 Brazilian, you know to member on a total eight cinnamon toast crunch
No, I like it now because it's cinnamon toast crunch. It's a different perspective
It's interesting and I mean it is crazy because I saw it and I threw you totally under the bus
Well, it was like oh, that's you I was like, I just want to let you know I scored this in a point too
We talked about it and I was like he scored it
a six
Point nine. Oh, no. No. Yeah. No, that wasn't bad
Oh, you know what? I keep getting the other one mixed up the fray the buttery one that we had
I got that was awful a single grain. I thought it was great to the buttery one was good. This is different really not good
Well, anyways, shout out to those the rd1 folks, you know that was good. They make good stuff and that maple
She said that what they do is they take the wood chunks or the staves and they soaked them in maple syrup
It was good. And then they throw it into the bourbon. It was really good
They got a he did a he'd up first. Can we buy that one? Yeah, yeah, we can okay
She's supposed to give it send us one but we'll see that happens. So be nice. It does
Well, I mean I just got to reach out to her and give her a mailing address of where I live. I did
Damnit of where you live. Oh nice. Oh what you've already given your address. Yes
He's like who I got more bottles guys
Yes
All right guys look it was a successful thing
I walked away with about a half gallon of booze and we sampled it tonight and let's rate the
2024 world of whiskeys
downtown Dallas
We sampled each an ounce and a half or actually two ounces. Those are two ounces. Yeah, it was actually I do mayor
Where's your I just poured it just plugged it. Yeah, I get it was good. It was really good
I was tasty. The proof was a little lower than we're used to but it had a good
I mean there's 40 bottles and that thing it had a good good finish to it. I like the fit
I mean included garrison brothers
It was I I don't have a list in front of me of all the different ones that had there
I guess you should have written down the quantities and the ounces
Did you I asked him that member at the event I go you write down the answers as you put them in there
I took a picture of each one
Yeah, I was talking to you guys earlier about a printer and other than the dry toner one
I want to get one of those so I can I want to print I want to start
Printing some labels for the infinity bottle and start including stuff that's on there
You know like the current one that we have out there
I mean imagine if we have a list of everything that's on there just stick it on the side
And then we'll start to add on to it. We could just start like a trophy just keep adding strips. Yeah. Yeah, there you go
speaking of trophy
I want to talk a little bit about things that dudes like us experience in life. Yep. Yeah, you know what?
I'm going with this one. So I'm ready. I'm gonna go ahead and it was an eventful day
So it was the whiskey a festival prior to that that we we had a dear friend of ours
That we you know, I we've all known for a long time a couple decades and you know
Some of us have worked with them and we've been around him and he passed away
and
It sucks when he's younger than I was but
He's younger than I was by a week. Yeah, but still he's he's he's generally our age. We're in our 50s
We're in our mid 50s and you know, it's sad when anyone dies, but it's sad when someone dies that young and you know
The cause of death we're not gonna really get into enough, but I will shout out to Dave David Bain and
Just say much love you will be missed
Great guy. Yeah, he really was you really were and you know, we're gonna miss you David Bain and
You know, we went to the funeral and it was it was wonderful. You have a beautiful family and it just it stinks. It's just
life happens and
you got to roll with the punches and you got to make good decisions and
sometimes
People get stuck in a rut
You know, it's it's kind of like anything. It's
Like you like to eat certain foods and you just you just you know, I'll just compare myself
You know, there's are like today. I or yesterday I did fast. I had a I had to go to a dinner
So I didn't fast so now I have to fast Wednesday
Pappas see you in Thursday and Friday. Yeah, you can have to fast for 72 hours just Wednesday
So I'll eat I'll eat a little bit tonight when I get home and then I won't eat all day Wednesday
But the point is is that people make sacrifices people live life
Okay, and when you when you take it when you do too much of something whether it be eating drinking
Neglective, you know of exercise. It's just it pays a toll on you. You have
to dress for success
emotionally
physically and
Eat right and be healthy when you're certain age your
Metabolism is different
Your body is just it you know starts breaking down. Yeah, your your shit starts to go crazy
You know, there's only sideways, you know, and and the it was it was a nice ceremony and probably the only positive you can come
You know out of it is, you know, obviously it is a celebration of life
But also you got to see people I hadn't seen in a long time, right?
So it's always good to to kind of reconnect with people even though the circumstances are horrible, but yeah
So that that was kind of nice seeing people I hadn't seen in 20 years and it's eye-opening though when you have a friend
That that passes away like that. It's uh, you know, and I I tie it into
You know, we walked away from that event
Not as bad but I can compare it a little bit to donald trump walking into the rnc last night after his
assassination attempt
You know where you know, he's life flashed before his eyes and he's kind of dude
Do you see the look in his eyes? I I actually didn't see him. He looked he looked uh, I
He looked different subdued not subdued
That's not the right word. He looked um, I don't know. There was something different in the way
He looked I I will say I saw a still picture of him sitting in the crowd
And I I know what you're saying. He looks different. I don't know how to explain it
But when you have a brush with death, I would imagine
You know it uh, it does it has to change you
So, I mean maybe maybe he'll kind of tone down his eye
We're looking at his tie maybe so the the look in his eyes
Look, the thing is is that when he walked out there, you know, I mean before we even get into all the
The small things in life. I mean look he's emotional. I mean, yeah, you can see it
He was his face is dripping with emotion. He's
It was so
He's it was it's amazing
It's a miracle that he didn't die. It's an absolute miracle
He's a miracle and there are so many scenarios that people have drawn out through animations and
Uh of how close it really was. Yeah, it it really I mean life is crazy and god, you know
It's a shout out to god
It's a shout out to the things in life that mold us and I I think that this one
Hopefully will mold him to be a better person. I mean, I don't think he's a horrible person. Yeah, I just think that
Like me he says things that he just doesn't think about first right and you know
I think what it is it puts things into perspective. Yeah, I know i've had
A lot of perspective thrown at me over the last six months
And it does it even when it started it started with my mother when she passed away
my my
outlook on life changed and things I didn't take as
I didn't stress like I was right because I was like it's not as serious
She went sideways with her when she turned 50. Yeah, right
uh, and then with my dad passing away, you know, and I you know, it's
I don't know. It just
It makes me think differently
Uh about what I want to do with the rest of my life how I want to live it
But so I get it and I and I might I might I might have crossed roads and I don't know
What to do at this point basically. Yep. Oh, I know. I don't know. Yeah, it's like you like
Brush with death. It's a it's a glimpse of mortality, right? I mean
What is it and it puts it puts it into perspective?
About how much time we have left. Yes, everything and how and how we want to spend it. He's got grandkids. He's got kids
You know well that but thinking about how much time we have left and how much how do we want to spend it? Yep
Yeah, the average age is
7576 that's 20 years if you think about it. I mean we I mean depending on how things go
We may not have that much time. That's that's the way you have to live life that you don't have that much time left, right?
I mean it's not much left and it's really hard to do that. We're in the back third of our life
I know I hear you
Yeah, I mean it's um
It uh, it was a crazy weekend man with that assassination attempt. It really really was
I mean, it's definitely one of those moments where you always remember where you were. You know what I mean?
I'm sitting there and then uh, steven texted me. Yep, and I think I texted you guys
I was like did trump just get shot at
Yeah, we were watching outlander and uh, dylan called me. Did you hear dad? Did you hear dad?
I'm like what what what and then I knew I had to scramble and get the tv on and
And yeah, it's crazy. Your wife called me. Yeah, she called me as well. I was like what the hell that's like chaos was in the
Paul was up in the back
No, I so what you were screaming. Well, it was crazy is that there's hell no
I don't remember any of that chef, but but I was shitfaced. Maybe I don't know
No, but dylan called me and then dawson called me and I was like I should be able to just merge the call
Like you should be pretty easy like merch calls your bitch at the tech. I was getting so frustrated
I was like I can't merge your call
I don't hold on and I was clicking and clicking and then I lost I hung up on dylan
Then I hung up on dawson and then one called me. You know what I mean? It was like a technology failure and meanwhile
the angst was like a
20 out of 10
Of what was going on right and showing the video and we don't know anything yet
I heard you in the background and shelly was going it was insane and uh,
uh, julie's like was that shelly I was like, yeah, she wanted to make sure we knew about
President trump and I was like sound like all hell was breaking loose over there. I hear paul the background just yapping
But the the the event itself, you know the just the the bullet wasn't by
The do we know what kind of bullet it was five five six. Yeah
Yeah, ar-15 right? So
I think it was a little bigger than a 22. So it's a little bigger than a 22. So it's a little bigger than a 22
So it's a little bigger than a 22 isn't it?
So a two two three in a five five six are essentially the same bullet. So yes, it's a little bit bigger than a 22
all right
So this guy, uh
I don't even remember his name anymore, but the the the young kid who cares about his name
Yeah, we shouldn't know his name. Honestly, but you know, look i'm gonna have a different spin on this
I think I chatted with you guys. Look the guy was you know, he he took the shot
So he made a decision between what's right and wrong at the end of the day
It was on him. But my my question is what influenced him, right?
Why did he make those decisions people make decisions because you know
They they hear like he wanted to kill trump for whatever reasons because he believed that trump was a bad person
That's why you kill people right? You know, and people want you think and you think you're justified
Yeah, if people wanted to kill hitler you want to go back in time, who would you kill?
I think I would kill hitler. All right. Well if you went back in time
Do you really think you want to kill donald trump the fuck that's crazy. What did he really do?
That's bad. People are comparing him to hitler. They've been comparing him to hitler for years
They're just they're just saying so many things that aren't true
And it's just like there there needs to be accountability and I think obama was the one that
Uh deleted the law that says that the media is allowed to come up with
You know, I think we mentioned this on a past podcast
There was a law that he overruled and said, you know what? We're going to delete this
You know from now on moving forward the media can go ahead and say whatever the fuck they want even if it's not true
Are we sure about that? Yep positive. Yeah, there was something we talked about and I mean it was it's phrased a little bit differently than that
But so you're saying he vetoed legislation that would have tamped down
The media rhetoric the the media half-truth, correct? Okay. Well, yeah, I think I think the media played again
we don't know his true motivations or anything like that, right the
vitriol and the
Demonization of donald trump that the press
And politicians do oh, yeah, I mean they did it for years sway someone who's mentally weak
And think about this if we elect trump, it'll be the end of democracy as we know it
If we elect trump, there will not be another free election, right?
If we elect I mean they were saying this kind of stuff over and over
If we elect trump there we will have a dictatorship and america will come to an end. It was the smith months
Uh act. Yeah, and though he's gonna make concentration camps for all the illegals. Yeah, it's insane
Concentration camps with the ovens and the gas chambers like that, right?
I mean and and they were unabated unabated in this crazy talk
Point was is that if you are a young 20 year old very impressionable and yeah very impressionable and you're hearing all this negative stuff
And he didn't sound like he's very uh big on social media
I don't know if that was by design or and he also didn't seem like he had a big support group
And he was kind of an outcast and but he was super smart
Yeah, you know a smart guy the one thing that there are so many unknowns in the whole thing like they there was a one of
The memes I saw on the instagram was where they had a black rock
Advertisement, I saw this I saw that where I mean it kind of i'm not saying it. I don't know but it's just like oh my gosh
I mean there's black rock. I mean first of all, how many black rock advertisements do you see? No
I'm not sure i've ever seen one but so there's an advertisement of black rock and he's right there and well
so the details on that are they were at the high school and they were uh, they were
How do you recognize it a teacher recognizing a teacher and he happened to be a brief student in the background that walks by?
Correct, and I don't know how
Why would they even know that there were two two like split seconds? He was sitting at the desk
There was very fast. It was like the pan by he wasn't part of the
Commercial. Yeah, so why would they even?
So ai told them hey, by the way, that person's in your commercial
I mean
Who would even know that who would even look to see who's sitting in the background family member for a half a second?
Well, there's family members who knew that he was in this classmates do. Oh, you're right. You're right
Because when stuff like that comes out, it's like they came to our school. I was in there right?
Yeah, I hear you. There are people know about that shit. Yeah, you're right. You're right. I don't think there's any
Correlation. Oh, no like a conspiracy. No, I don't think no not at all. But you know back to your point shawn
You make a good point. I mean
This rhetoric is dangerous because there are some people who are
Very influenced correct and they believe this stuff
I mean, I mean, I know we shouldn't put too much, you know credibility to people on the street being interviewed
But when they're interviewing what seemed to be normal people walking by
right and they are hell bent on saying that this was a staged event and
Trump deliberately had somebody shoot at him and deliberately hit him in the ear and it doesn't matter that somebody got killed in the background
Deliberately killed someone. Yeah, he doesn't Trump doesn't care
This is evil and all stage for him to get elected those those interviews that they do
Uh with general people which could be uh, any of these nighttime
Uh shows that they have on right? Hey, let's go down and find out what people think about this this and this whatever they are people
General people are stupid
General people are on both sides by the way they ask I mean i'm talking about talking about democrat republic
I'm talking about just general in general. Yeah, they go down there like they're talking about
All right. Well, look we we're gonna have a little theme about talking about getting your citizenship
All right. Well, let's talk about that the test that they have to take to get citizenship
And we're going to ask these pointed questions to some of the people that are pastor buys
Oh, they know nothing and they go down there and they start asking these questions and these people are completely ignorant
They have no idea how to answer these as easy as is like
Name the like some state capital somewhere, right?
Uh, I don't know. Yeah, that's their own state
I remember one they had like a series of like big pictures of like who the people were and they're like can you name this person?
Can you name this person? Can you name a name a country that starts with the letter c?
Yes, right or or something they start naming and it borders the us
Curtis still can't get it kyrgyzstan
Yeah, it's just you know, yeah, it's just but my point is
People are influenced by I mean, they're clearly watching
You know, I don't know msnbc
There's a lot of stuff. They're watching something that gives them an impression that
All these things are true msnbc
I think knows they are culpable in this they are fucked up. You know, they they reported that
Oh trump was rushed off stage because of a loud noise. That was cnn. That was cnn and embassy embassy and they said
Secret service rushes him off the stage because trump fell correct
That that was their headline
I mean, what what do you do with that that that's such a yank. That's such well, uh
Delusion about trump. Well, I think I think msnbc and the folks who run that have to have a
deep look at themselves
And think about what part they played
I don't I I think it's the opposite
I think it's the people that watch it need to have a deep look at what they did and have some acknowledgement
well, that's that's both but
I think msnbc kind of acknowledged themselves when they yanked morning joe off the air
Yeah, but because they're afraid we don't know what that was all about and look these they said they were afraid
That they're them or their panel was today. Is that you sure about that? Yes. Well according to fox news
They said they said that they were worried that someone on their panel was going to say something
That was so good in a bad light the story given to
To scarborough is that they were going they weren't going to do any opinion pieces the entire day
They were going to do an all-day coverage live feed, you know live news coverage
But then you know other people were we're on
Right and then that's when they were pissed off and they were like, wait a second. Why were other opinions?
You know people aren't like joy reed or somebody
It was all was on but scarborough wasn't and then they then they turn around and like and by the way if you do this again
You can have to find somebody else to run this show. I was like dude talking shit to their own bosses
I was like what the hell? Yeah, you're gonna hire them
Nobody what outfit is gonna hire them the the media. I mean who owns all the media
Blackrock
Oh, I mean different different billionaires and different people like murdoch, you know owns a box. I'm just saying that there's
They're they're all owned by almost the same company
The parent company owns it, you know, and it's that's why you you law you go to abc colorado
And you you see it and they hey by the way the blah blah blah blah and you can go to
Tennessee and you go to cbs and they say the exact same thing
We've all seen the commercials or the little memes where you've got all these different
Anchors that are repeating the same thing reciting it. Yeah, because they're given talking points. Yeah, but yeah, but you can't do that organized
Talking points unless you're owned by the same company and so they at least a extremely tight coalition
That's the way radio stations are as well
Because like true cumulus media owns a bunch, right? Yeah, so it's a centralized run organization
I mean they right they say here's what we're talking about today. Here's your paperwork. Yeah
Well, it's so cumulus used to run the I believe that's what roach limbaugh used to be on cumulus
Yeah, but then I think the ticket was on cumulus for a while they got sold and so
They're big conglomerates who won't only station here, right?
So let's get back to the assassination attempt though, because I mean there's lots of shit flying around right?
But let's talk about the Secret Service for a second. They're taking a beating they should they're taking a major beating and they should right?
Because you know all these experts ex-cia ex, you know ex-secret service are saying that there should have been a perimeter that was you know
If 500 plus definitely a thousand yards
Yeah, larger footprint for sure, you know and and then they were saying that you know, well they they didn't have
The number of people needed to secure that big a perimeter because their requests were denied and you know
So this I think there's the potential for a lot of misinformation flying around right now and there's going to be investigations
I get it. But dude when you see the videos where the people milling around or like
Pointy there's a guy up there's a guy on the roof with the gun
And then the cop tries to go up there on the back of another cop and ends up falling down when they pointed the gun
At him. Where did you hear that story? That was one of the people on
On the tv apparently had information about it. And here's the thing there are there are a lot of oh so much
flimsy facts because you know that you see these videos you see these videos are still pictures where
There's a an overview of the building and there's clearly a ladder
So is there a ladder there or is there not a ladder there? How did the ladder get there? Who put that ladder there?
Did he climb up that ladder? I actually didn't see a picture of a ladder. So it's a picture with the ladder
Okay. Well then yeah, so I mean it's just like all right. Well, this was premeditated
Did he show up and then there's some news that came out right before I came here that there's there's proof or evidence that
That kid that did the shooting was sitting outside standing outside for a while and kind of just kind of scoping things out
He had a rangefinder. Yeah. Yeah. Well, he was he was seeing how far away he was and looking for a vantage point
and then he went back to his car and came back with a with a
You know with a backpack. I mean, it's like if all that shit's true
Dude, we already know this is a colossal failure insecurity. It's a colossal failure. And I think the director of
Secret service is going to get raked over the coals for this
Rightfully so she should have already resigned if she knows what's coming
Yeah, if she was smart enough to know what's coming you got a bail. There's gonna be a bunch of
Chart not trials. I guess they are in the senate in the congress and all that shit investigations investigations and stuff. Yeah
They're going to uh, hold a bunch of those and she's gonna be front center. She's gonna be destroyed
I was listening to uh, bond, you know the last couple days and he used to be secret service
I think he was on the 18th. Yes, and he was on two he was on uh obama who was before
Obama
Bush. Yeah bush. He's on bush and obama. Yeah, and he said basically you're responsible for a bubble
They call it a bubble. Yeah, 360 degrees in all directions below the ground above the ground and all around right? So he goes
Why wasn't there a drone in the air? No drone. No chopper. No this no that
I mean he was just railing he was going down the list of things that were crazy
Yeah, and then the director says oh well, we've secured the building on the inside
But we didn't do the outside because it was a sloped roof and that would have created a safety issue
That was retarded. She said it though. I'm saying she said that I mean, it's not just misinformation. She said that
Yeah, that the fact that she said that it's just that's false. There's no way four and a half slope
That's probably three three and a half or three and a half. It doesn't make any difference
You you have somebody on the roof to make sure nobody else is on the roof. I mean, it's crazy, right?
So anyway that so that's no question
But they were saying well, did he climb up the ladder or was he inside the building that climbed up through an access?
I don't know. I don't think we know that
All right, so I don't know. I saw initially that there was a ladder
I don't know if there was or not. I think it's gonna I heard he was running
They they saw they saw him running with all that stuff and the gun
And he kind of disappeared into the the bushes that were right
well
And then then they talked about how a sniper team apparently had him in their sights for two minutes
But they didn't have the clearance to take a shot at him because they didn't know what to do
And then he took his shot and then they dropped him
I exactly because I was again bonjino goes that police officer can take the shot anytime he wants he doesn't need permission
Right. Okay. So I mean that that's what all that this is what I mean by all this stuff flying around in terms of misinformation
So i'm eager to hear the facts, right? I mean, yeah, he gave the example goes if there's a guy with a gun next to
You hold to somebody hostage, you don't wait until they shoot that person to shoot them, right? You don't need to ask permission
If you have the shot you take it. Yeah, no, no question
If that guy had him in the sights and he had his gun you just take him out. Yeah, that's permission, right?
Anyway, so I I hope I hope that's true. It sounds it should be that way. That's what he said
He goes a lot of people were
Flinging around a bunch of misinformation that he had to get approval. He goes he didn't need to get approval, right?
So, okay. So then if he didn't need approval then
Why didn't you take the shot?
Right and is it true that he waited for two minutes and then I hear that he wasn't the one that even took the shot
He might have shot later. But the one that took him out was a sniper team that was much farther away
That's what that was another it was weird
The picture they showed were those uh, there's two snipers and those guys had a tall tripod and then a guy that has smaller tripod
Well, but then there was a second sniper team not even those two guys, right?
There was a separate sniper team somewhere who were apparently 488 yards out
Let's tell you what's the thing. We're all we're we're all there's a bunch of
Check your speculation at this point. What we can all agree on it. Have it two days ago
What we can all agree on is that there was a massive failure, correct?
It's going to be a long time. There's going to be conspiracy theories
I saw yes that was weird was the the the sniper that had the tripod, you know, he
You see where he's on the scope
But you don't know he looks up. Yeah, he looks up back down
But it's just like when he when you see his gun come back
Like like he took a shot
Did he take a shot because if you see where his gun's aiming right and then you see it do it two three times
It's like his fucking gun was all wobbly. That's like bam. It's like it's no way that could have been consistent shooting, right?
All I know they showed it over and over I turned it over
I watched about 15 minutes
So now I told you I was like i'm done because they have nothing new and i've seen everything but it was fascinating because
Without people even reporting anything or knowing anything like everybody's like texting and stuff like this
Shelly and I were listening to the raw feed right because they played it without any
They weren't talking they listened and you can hear them say
You know, can we move type of thing and they shoot her down and then they're like, okay
We can move the shooter down and so I was like dude. They just said the shooter's down
That was before anything was being reported, right?
Like and so I was like texting. Okay, uh, they said the shooter's down and they and I and we heard eight shots
You know sharp shooter down. It was crazy
It was crazy what was going on and dude, it's definitely one of those, you know, 9 11 moments
And it's definitely one of those iconic pictures
Um that one. I was my good when I came up. I was like unbelievable. That's gonna be very wealthy
Unbelievable is there gonna be that?
Sure, I could have a t-shirt someone just uh a picture of that bullet that whizzed by his head unbelievable capture
That showed what went through it and you know, and there's more is what about the the unfortunate?
Oh, yeah, yeah, I think so. Yeah, sure
No, I mean, i'm not i'm not a friend because I was like I didn't think a bullet left a vapor trail
And west was like, oh, yes, it does. It does leave a vapor trail. Yeah, I did. I wasn't aware of that
Yeah, but I don't I don't know I feel
I you felt like it was kind of it happened so fast. It got that's like someone just kind of went into photos. I went
They could do it that easy. Oh, they oh dude release
It is if I can buy a shirt like a day later. Yeah, some of these people are so good
That they could do that
That fast ago. Here's a picture with the with the vapor trail amazing. I don't know if it's real or not
It's i'm skeptical. I'd rather say it's real because I mean it's it's very cool looking
Yeah, I mean and it's real looking so I mean look at the the frame rate for those those
300 frames per second that right capture it. You know super super detailed. Yeah, and the bullets
Flying way faster than that. Who knows is a miracle picture
Everything is a miracle everything lives a miracle everything. Everything is a miracle a fucking miracle
So we can all agree a lot more details that need to come out a lot of a lot of conspiracy shit
That's happening. But where do we go from here?
Let's talk about that. Where do we go from here? So they're already talking about ramping down the rhetoric
You know the rhetoric
And you know and let's let's tone everything down and then this that'll last the week
You know why I think I think less I think the reason why it's not going to last at all
and this is something
Ironically on sunday. This was the the the uh, we went to church and this was the sermon and it had nothing to do
With what happened this weekend. It was the power of our words
Okay, and it said you're not going to change the power your words ever until because what your words speak what your heart?
feels right and
It's not going to happen. I mean these people
Their heart is so blackened is so hardened. They hate some of the left. They hate trump so much
Not just trump. No, no people on the right too. They hate biden and they hate the left so much that
It's gonna it's just nothing's gonna stop this guy. Yeah, but look
It's rightfully so though. I mean, I don't understand why they I mean I understand why we
Some of the folks don't like the left and it's because of the negativity and the falseness
The the lies they produce. Yeah, even uh during the debate. I mean you get they get finished up joe was
Waddled out to the crowd and how did you do tonight? Oh look at you. You did so good
You're getting some jello pudding tonight. You're so good. And you know what and what did trump do? He lied
Oh, come on man, right? I mean, it's just I mean what the fuck I mean don't say he lied
What did he lie about right? I mean, it's just that's what you gotta do. You gotta call people out
uh, and uh, okay, you say he lied what did he lie about maybe maybe if anything happens we do start to fine-tune
You know, we we focus on the speech and call them out immediately. I think it needs to happen on both sides
Yeah, it needs to happen on both both sides of the aisle. So when they do these debates when they say something
You're gonna be like, all right stop
That's not true. Yeah ding ding buzzer like a buzzer. Yeah, stop. That's not true. He's not a rapist
You get the old family feud ex
Yep, absolutely. That's not true
Trump didn't do that. You know, he's not a rapist. He's he hasn't been convicted of uh,
Of the january 6th
Insurrection he's not an insurrectionist. He didn't call neo-nazis fine people
Yeah, he didn't say that either. I mean it's like biden said that again yesterday. I know it's like are you kidding?
Why didn't lester hulk call his ass out on that? Uh, because he's a piece of shit
You know, mr. President that's been debunked false. Yeah, it's insane. Anyway, i'm hopeful but uh, I
I am extremely skeptic. All right, let's uh skeptical. All right, let's uh, let's talk about the bourbon
Oh, where's the bottle? Well, the bottle is empty. So yeah, we we got we infinity did it
So it's the 13th colony, uh bourbon and uh, we the label the southern bourbon whiskey
Which makes sense as the 13th college located in the americas of georgia. However, it lacks the destination that according to their website it qualifies for
Excuse me. So um, you know
Is it considered straight? Well, yeah, the the the 13th colony age products are aged a minimum of four years
And follow all the guidelines to be considered as a straight bourbon whiskey
And another question that i've asked a lot is it does 13th colony use an additional additives color flavor? No
13 color does not additives coloring of flavors to our products. Yes our double oak
Bourbon is naturally that dark so I haven't had that though. There is a bit of a difference
That's considered one of the best but there was a stink last year that they were adding stuff to it
Oh, is that where that came from? Yes. Okay, a little disclaimer up there. Okay, but I really like this
It's very smooth. It's very easy to drink
What's the proof on it's not very high proof. No, it's it's like 97 something like that. Nothing wrong with that
Look, I don't have a lot of bad things to say about it at all
It didn't have a whole lot of wow factors to it. Okay, so
You know, I think that's a product of it being uh less proof
So it's not as pungent not as uh as uh heavy on the tongue
I just didn't feel a lot of flavors popping out. I'm getting some i'm getting some sweetness
And some uh, some cinnamons and stuff like that. I think it's solid. I do think it's solid
I mean there's nothing to complain about but you're right. There's nothing to
Rave about either but that's okay. It's a good
Sipping bourbon. Yes, it's a good
sipping bourbon. Yes, if you wanted something to sip on at night, you didn't want
120 130 proof. This is a really good one to have. Yep. It's it's yeah, I think it's perfect for the
You know for the six eight range
in terms of
Yeah, I put this in the same category as as tx whiskey. It's just a fun thing
It's just uh, I think it's better than that is different to this. I don't know man
This is more of a tx whiskey is only 80 proof though. Yeah
Really? Yeah, is that why I was able to drink with a straw? Oh, it's very mild very mild. Yeah
No, I like this
I am gonna
What we'll probably never find it but the double oak if we ever find it, we need to make sure that would be nice
All right. What are you ready guys? Well, hold on stan from total one dude hook us up with a goddamn double barrel. What the fuck bro?
Sorry, I had to let that back. I'm back. I'm back. They just started carrying 13th colony not too long ago
It's a cool bottle. Yeah
It's kind of like a little genie bottle. Yeah, julie picked this out when we were down in college station
Last year a couple years ago and she did it based solely on the bottle, right? Nothing wrong with that
I dream of genie. Yeah, it is very unique. I like it southern bourbon whiskey. It's a cool little label
It's one on the right. Yep. The other label
So, uh, you know, I want to give it a seven and that's I'm not I'm not going any lower
I mean, I'm not definitely not going any higher. I'm right at a seven as well. Yeah, because it is it is good
it's just
it's not as
Potent or as strong as some of the others. Yeah, it's just I like I like my taste buds to be attacked
Well, how do you compare this to when you when you drank half the bottle of redemption?
That one time I'm like this is good. I give it an eight
And it was 90 proof. I don't remember that
You did yeah, I gave it an eight. Yeah, you were high on that
Yeah, because I called you out on the next one. I was like you're rating this lower than but here's the thing
I don't think this is it's just it doesn't have the
The floralness to it. It doesn't have the the the the punch
It doesn't have the attack that i'm looking for
You know, I want to be able to taste it. It's just to stand out as more unique
Yeah, it's just it look I don't want to slam it because it's not bad. It's just not my bag
I think there's a that's a good word the uniqueness. There's nothing real unique about sure
I mean we are just going to point where they are kind of
They start to run together. They do right
I mean we we're repeating the same words when we talk about what the nose is and what the finish is
I mean, we're repeating the same words, which is what we were talking about earlier
It's like the people that that critique these things they have to
They're coming to trying to be super creative to come up with something unique about the way they word it
Um, well, I recommend the reality is there a lot of them are just really really similar
Yeah, I recommend this if someone was looking for a good bottle. Yeah that
That's in your proof range 13th colony. This is a good one. It's a good one. I buy it
How much was this bottle ish?
190. Yeah, I don't think so. Maybe a dollar 90. I have no idea
It's probably a dollar 90. I don't know. I don't know
Maybe a dollar 90. I have no idea. It's probably about 40 50 bucks
Yeah, I can see that. Most of them were in what we're in the 60 range now, right?
Well, this was a couple years ago, right? I would say most of them seem to be in that range
I'm all about grabbing that the mr producer. Thank you for for for getting here
And he had to work a little bit later today. So he just got here now. What is the proof of the double barrel?
The double oak? Double oak?
Yeah
Let's see here. I'm kind of curious though. It is double oak. Yeah
135 that's what i'm talking about. Yeah, but look at this
170 dollars I will buy five. It's so loud. Look at you where to buy click on where to buy
See if there's anything close. It says georgia only. Oh, there's a allocations for texas. Very nice. Uh
I wonder if you buy it online
Fuck it looks like you can
Buy it online and they'll ship it to you
Nice are they already out though?
Did you say it was sold out? I bet it's a release. They say we're releasing it on this day and I bet it goes boom
Just like that
Well, i'm thinking if it's a it's a flavorful, uh whiskey
then um
Man like these double barrel spanish oak from rebecca creek. I mean
Plus, but you can't find anymore. I know
You're devastated. I'm gonna steal our podcast
one

Well, you're going back to houston you said right? Well, I mean I got I got orders to be prepared to go to houston
But that doesn't mean i'm not I got a single claim but it's a desk adjustment that I might do but
Um, you may have to say I have to go to houston to do this desk adjustment
I'm uh, well i'm gonna be in brian college station later this week and alan is driving up from houston to meet me this weekend
Do you want me to tell him to go somewhere?
ask them to to

Tell you what i'll call specs and find out where they have one because I know that when we went to that spec store
They said that they had one store particular store that had eight of them. So honestly i'll buy four
Well, I want to
Go so they're sick. So i'll let you have two of my four
You will if I go buy them
