    On the cusp of Thanksgiving, Chris and Luke enjoy three tasty, unique pours from Laws Whiskey House, a Colorado craft distillery with no master distiller and no tolerance for shortcuts. On the music side, the guys discuss three standout tracks from Frank's Capitol years, including a pair of uptempo travelin' tunes and a soul-crushing saloon song linked to Ava Gardner. Also includes a way to improve unloved bottles, a Bushmills-soaked tale of U2, Redford and Sinatra, a "Frankly Dressing" style segment and a guest appearance by Bob Dylan. Enjoy!
