We will be going live tonight! Roy & Eric will be reporting from the Hill Country after a barrel of a day, Bucky will be at home (not in studio) and Blyth will be where Blyth is all the time. This will be our biggest Virtual Show ever so we may need yall to bear with us while we get it sorted out 🤣 I never claimed to be a professional producer nor have I produced a fully virtual show so 🤞

ChatGPT decided this is our Halloween costumes 🤷‍♂️ why did Blyth get to be the one haunting the rickhouse? Because “make him a floating head” missed the mark by a hair so i fixed it 🤣…

With this in the bourbon competition world, does this mean Green River Distilling Co. Wheated Bourbon HAS to be added to our 2025 FG WotY bracket immediately?!? Chime in with your thoughts!

This affordably priced, widely available 90-proof wheated bourbon beat out much pricier, allocated expressions at the annual judging in NYC.

We are back tonight doing what we do best - kicking off your weekend with some conversation, drinking good and lighting up a good because it's
Tonight we will start putting together our 2025 Whiskey Of The Year (aka the ) candidates, discussing who should be in and who should be out, who's on upset alert before the tournament even begins and much more!
Eric, unfortunately will not be with us (he's chosen to roll his balls this weekend) tonight and Roy will be a little late getting on set because his kiddo is putting on a halftime show at the HS football game.
Pour up your favorite candidate for WOTY, light up a good stick and jump into the comments on Facebook or YouTube to join the conversation live. It's the freakin weeekend baby!
