Bourbon Turntable - Mike & Kevin on Whiskey Row (2024-12-25)
Mike Lisac (My Whiskey Den) was in Louisville and we took that opportunity to hit up a few spots on the famous Whiskey Row. Our adventures also took us to a couple of stops beyond there, too.We visited Bardstown Bourbon Co., the bar at Michter's Fort Nelson, Buzzard's Roost (sort of), and Whiskey Thief's new tasting room. Afterwards, we caught up with our friend Benjamin Eaves at the soft opening of Kentucky Artisan Distiller's new tasting room. We finished our time on the town with dinner at one of our favorite spots, Bourbons Bistro.I hope you'll enjoy this show as we give you some tourist tips as we recount our adventures on Whiskey Row and beyond!

Bourbon Turntable - Support Local w/ Zeno Jones and Earl Bowman (2024-12-18)
One recurring theme of Bourbon Turntable is to support local. Local music and local whiskey.Wherever you are, there are smaller, local distilleries making great whiskey. And there are very talented musicians playing small venues practically in your backyard. This week, I visit with a couple of those musicians in my town: Zeno Jones and Earl Bowman (who is also a co-host of Top Hill Recording Podcast). We talk about their music, the challenges of being an "established, amateur musician", and how people can help support them.We also enjoy some whiskey from local distilleries. The first pour is Buzzard's Roost Cigar Rye and the second pour is Toasted Barrel Bourbon from Kentucky Peerless.I encourage you to find some local music venues and musicians, and local distilleries and give them your support. It will mean more than you know.

He always has interesting things going on and is very open to talk about everything he is doing at his distillery.Lenny and I discuss and do side-by-side tastings of his single malts, ryes, bourbons and corn whiskeys. It was a lot of tasting to squeeze into one show, but we aren't quitters!The side-by-sides include comparisons of some Deerhammer "standards" to some experimental takes on their various lines of whiskeys.I think you'll enjoy the conversation.

Bourbon Turntable - Dear Robin (2024-11-20)
Pia Rademann is the vocalist for the German rock band, Dear Robin. Pia is a very talented singer and songwriter and was a real pleasure to talk with about her career, the band and their music. I know you'll enjoy getting to know Pia and will love the music made by her band, Dear Robin.
We blend the love of music with the love of whiskey. Kevin Rose, Drew Crawley and Benjamin Eaves have conversations with each other and with notable people from the music and distilling worlds. If you love whiskey or if you love music, our shows are crafted just for you.
