If you thought season two episode one was good, that's a shame because this is the one that is getting us cancelled.

Lastly we have some fun and develop the official Smell My Whiskey Bingo Card, full of all sorts of season one jokes that happened before the podcast was cool. Check it out on the 'gram. "Play the music."

This week’s episode is the first of our “special” episodes. For starters, we’re all recording together around a table. Second, we’re reviewing two different spirits today! Lastly, we hope you enjoy the accompanying tones of special guest, baby Dorit!

The first on the list is Elon Musk’s Tesla Tequila! Lucky for us, Max was able to get his hands on a bottle before they sold out within hours! We’ll tell you if it’s as electrifying as their vehicles, or if it’s simply a stylish bottle. See the Tesla April Fools Thread that started it all.

You’ll have to listen to the episode to hear what we review after the tequila. Max decided to surprise the group with something…unique.

Other discussions this week include:

Clint’s infinity glass
Pat finds a way to make bad, worse
You don’t make a cream sauce?

We’re back to bring you another fun episode, but this week is a little different from our usual content. We had to do a little behind-the-scenes number crunching to figure out how we would get the whiskey for each episode from here on out, so we unfortunately don’t have a whiskey review this week. However, we discuss the different ways to drink your whiskey, as well as our own preferences. We also take some time to talk about the whiskey barrel making process. We promise we will be back to normal next week. CHEERS!

Episode 2, we're famous now! Oh, we're not? Well I guess we're just here then. On this weeks episode we tackle the tough questions troubling whiskey drinkers alike: What actually is Bourbon, and why do we know so little about it? If whiskey takes a long boat ride, will it taste better? Our whiskey of the week: Horse Soldier Straight Bourbon Whiskey! Can Clint remember our scale? (Hint: No)

We’re a show about four buddies finding out what it’s like to taste test whiskey. We obviously have no right to do it but that is the fun of it! It’s our first episode so we’re in here laying the ground work for the future. No big topic list for the first episode beyond who we are, what we’re doing, and how our very straightforward rating system will go. Have a listen!
