The fellas sit down with Wendy Peveich, founder and blender of Archer Eland, for a conversation that’s part whiskey tasting, part life masterclass. She breaks down her journey from healthcare to whiskey, why rye deserves more respect, and how “single barrel curation” is more than just picking a good barrel. The crew works through multiple rye expressions that challenge everything you think rye is supposed to taste like, sparking real debate at the table. Along the way, Wendy opens up about risk, faith, grief, confidence, and what it really takes to build a brand from scratch. There are laughs, proof-snob side-eyes, unexpected flavor reactions, and a few moments that feel more like a TED Talk than a podcast. This episode goes way beyond the glass and dives into purpose, perseverance, and betting on yourself. If you love rye, entrepreneurship, or hearing how passion turns into execution, this is one you don’t want to miss. Pull up and experience the journey.

The crew is back at the table talking bottles, budgets, FOMO, and how their whiskey-buying habits have evolved since Season 1, when nobody dared spend over $50. From the overwhelming wave of new releases hitting shelves to the psychology of chasing hype, the guys break down what really makes a bottle worth the buy. They get honest about guardrails, dealing with the “whiskey glut,” and why a $30 bar pour might save you from a $300 mistake. Then they dive into something surprising: a brand-new release from Maker’s Mark, their first new mashbill in over 70 years. The fellas react to the bottle, the marketing, the mash bill experiment, and whether it earns a spot on your shelf. Expect jokes, debates, a few unexpected tasting notes, and a rating that might shock longtime Maker’s fans. If you’ve ever wrestled with FOMO, wondered how to navigate the flood of new whiskey drops, or just want to hear what happens when a big distillery finally switches it up, this episode’s for you. Pull up a chair, grab a glass, and find out why this pour had the whole table rethinking what they thought they knew about Maker’s Mark

The crew is back at the table with a special guest: Frank, aka Boricua Bourbon Cigar Journey, a man with over 100 whiskey samples, custom labels, and enough honey-finished bottles to turn Winnie the Pooh into a whiskey drinker. 🐝🥃 Together, they dive into a full lineup of honey-finished bourbons and ryes (Short Barrel, Blue Note, and more) comparing notes, debating textures, and discovering which pours really buzz. As the guys sip through each bottle, the conversation flows into whiskey habits, sample-hoarding confessionals, Puerto Rican pride, and how cigars and bourbon became Frank’s perfect pairing. There’s laughter, cultural gems, a whole lot of honey talk, and a few flavor notes you won’t see coming. If you love whiskey tastings, discovering new bottles, meeting dope people in the community, or just hearing the crew crack jokes while their palates get progressively looser, this episode is for you. Tap in to find out which honey pours stole the show and which ones had the table rethinking everything they thought they knew about finished whiskey.
