Whiskey N Whine

Episode 74: Mass-holes, McMuffins & the Greasy Pole Gauntlet This week, we welcome Sean from Massachusetts , a man who's camped rough on the Snake River, sipped wine in Walla Walla, and somehow made it out alive with all his teeth (well...most of them). We crack open a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 —a whiskey with a reputation almost as sketchy as Alex's prom after-party supervision skills. Spoiler: i...

🎤 Closet Confessions: Mimosas, Mall Cops & Mother's Day Mayhem Description: This week, your favorite bourbon-loving dads are literally hiding in a closet at a convention center, sweating through 14 hours of dance recitals with nothing but mimosas, pastries, and sketchy screw-top mystery booze to survive.

Ep. 71 – DUI Training, Food Poisoning Roulette & The Whiskey Grail Revelation We might be starting a side hustle training officers for DUI stops… because let's just say, the volunteer list for The Wet Lab is getting suspiciously long. 🍻👮‍♂️ This week, we dive mouth-first into The Whiskey Grail — no, not a medieval quest, but a wooden whiskey chalice that just might be magic. First half: whiskey...

Mike waits until we're rolling to bus...

Not that they don't whine, but Mike and Alex are especially whine prone this week.  Beyond the spring honey-do lists, their schedules are starting to fill up as well.  Before you know it, the white trash pool will be set up and the guys will transform into cabana boys for the summer.  Both Mike and Alex are spending too much time at PDX the last few weeks and the weird difference between upstairs...

Mike and Alex learned the hard way—they can't keep up with the young crowd! This week, the guys recap the wild night celebrating Madi's 21st birthday at a karaoke bar.

Mike and Alex were left unsupervised for a whole weekend.  So what better choice to make than do a before and after episode.  Before we went to an all you can eat crab feed and auction, about 5 minutes, after, an hour.  This week we welcome back Madi, who while being a great sport with us, was also bribed with the promise of bags of crab from the feed.  She is also a newly minted 21 year old and h...

The end is nigh, well of season 2 at least.  To finish out this season, please welcome back, our better halves, Kati and Joanna!  Apparently they are not as avid of listeners as they once were, so we just went down every rabbit hole.  We learn our dirty elf names and no surprise, they fit very well for Mike and Alex.  Joanna had a book written about her by a friend and it put an idea in Mike's hea...

After months of practice, Mike has finished his starring role in the Nutcracker as Mother Ginger.  He had a great time, was the ham of the show but is only now allowed to have Taco Bell, otherwise he might have gassed out the little bonbons.  This week the guys try a private barrel selection of Maker's Mark.  Oh, and if you see Mike around town, wish him a happy birthday week, since he doesn't get...

Aloha and welcome back to a brand new week.  Alex is back a little tanner and a lot heavier from a trip to Hawaii.  This week we drink a little 1792 full proof and dare we say, a first platinum? Mike's "high proof opinion" of the week is that the Tyson v Paul fight was no where near as good as advertised.  Who will be the first one to call foul?  A suggestion was thrown out, a re-taste of all the...
