The world of whiskey wages on even despite the world seemingly being at a halt. In this week’s chat, I sit down with one of the world’s favorite whiskey men, Adam Harris. As he sits and sips some Booker’s 25th Anniversary Bourbon in Houston, we ponder life, film, and what we can do to think about one’s self in these times. We chat QT, Brad Pitt, Squirrels, and more.

Ep 292 – Charlie Moore: It All Works Out in the End
Dalla’s Charlie Moore has worked in many different areas of the hospitality industry, but like many others, whiskey became his true calling. With early days in Iowa and a bit of troublemaking intermixed, Charlie shuffled jobs for a bit before finally falling in love with hospitality. His love of people, learning, and structure combined perfectly to provide a larger sense of purpose. And as Dallas’ cocktail scene started to thrive, Charlie found larger and more creative opportunities. Now, as the a leading whiskey ambassador in Texas, what challenges and struggles are in store? We chat Glendronach, fatherhood, trouble, and more.

Ep 290 – Kristopher Hart: Houston’s Bourbon Socialite
The job of an interviewer, at least a good one, is to offer up some vulnerability for your guest to hopefully encourage the same for them. It’s not an easy job, but Kris Hart is the man for the job. With his successful show Whiskey Neat, and his gargantuan whiskey event the Houston Whiskey Social, what makes the man tick? The proud father was thrown into the role very young in life but now reflects on the amazing experience. Kris has united whiskey lovers, podcast listeners, and many seeking transparency in the world of spirits, but what’s next? We chat QT, Destilado, FB groups, and more.
