- Society & Culture
Welcome to Whiskey fire Department, where amazing things happen. We learn about, taste (OK maybe a lot of tasting) and review a new Whiskey each week. After discussing the Whiskey, we switch to a Fire Service/Department topic for the remainder of the show. We have A LOT of fun every week. We poke fun of too many things to count, ourselves included. We hope you enjoy listening, laughing with us and maybe learn a thing or two as well. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/whiskey-fire-deparment/support

Episode 24 Old Forester 100 and Social Media in the Fire Service
Old Forester is the only bourbon produced by the founding family before, during and after prohibition. George Garvin Brown founded it in 1870. This is a good strong bourbon at 100 proof, that is surprisingly mild. Very good flavor and only slight burn. A great choice to stock your bar with.
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and all other social media sites are a way of life today. But never write anything you would not feel comfortable showing your employer. We talk about quite a few cases around the country where firefighters got in trouble for things they posted on social media.

Episode 23 Stolen Whiskey and Our Honor Guard Experience
A couple guys from New Zealand started the "Stolen" brand in 2010. Stolen Whiskey was created in the US in March 2017. The Whiskey is a single grain Whiskey (mainly corn) that has been aged for 11 years in used barrels. Their secondary process is an additional 28 days aging with charred/smoked staves added, giving it a smokey flavor. We were intrigued by this Whiskey and the whole process. We also talk about our experience being on the Honor Guard. We discussed some of our most memorable events. We both agree, being on the Honor Guard is a position we were most proud of.
