    EP 32 Widow Jane Apple Wood: The Rye Reckoning

    Send us a text In Episode 32 of Old Fashioned Friendship, Brandon and Bobby settle in for another night of bourbon, banter, and the kind of stories that only come from two decades of friendship. This week, the guys continue their Widow Jane series with the Apple Wood Rye — a bottle that has Brandon nervous, Bobby excited, and both of them curious to see if this might finally be the rye that converts a lifelong bourbon drinker. Before the first sip, the conversation spirals (in classic fashion) into everything from updating their long‑ignored Top Gear bourbon list to D&D Sundays, friends who never know what bottle to buy, and the eternal struggle of remembering which bourbons deserve a spot on the shelf. They dive into Christmas party prep, Secret Santa chaos, and the long‑awaited arrival of the Remus Babe Ruth bottle — a chase that’s been months in the making. Along the way, they revisit old trophies, beer‑pong war stories, questionable home‑improvement decisions, and the philosophy of giving gifts that actually mean something. It’s equal parts nostalgia, chaos, and genuine appreciation for good whiskey and good company. With the Apple Wood Rye poured and the holiday season in full swing, this episode is warm, funny, and unmistakably Old Fashioned Friendship — where the bourbon is smooth, the stories are real, and the laughs never stop.

    EP 31 Widow Jane & the Thanksgiving Recovery Tour

    Send us a text In this episode of The Old Fashioned Friendship, Brandon and Bobby crack open a bottle of Widow Jane 10 Year and immediately fall in love with it. Between sips, the guys catch up after a skipped Thanksgiving week and dive into everything the holidays threw at them — from chaotic schedules to family gatherings to the eternal struggle of cooking turkey that doesn’t suck. They swap stories about brining birds, spiral ham mishaps, and the unexpected adventures that come with hosting (or avoiding hosting) Thanksgiving. Brandon talks about helping a buddy mount a TV with questionable wall anchors, Bobby shares the saga of robot vacuums and dog disasters, and both of them reflect on how much life has changed since their early 20s. Somewhere between bourbon reviews and holiday chaos, the guys start dreaming about reviving the legendary “man trips” of their youth — but with late‑30s wisdom, sore backs, and better whiskey. It’s cozy, chaotic, and classic Old Fashioned Friendship: good bourbon, good stories, and two lifelong friends laughing their way through the holidays.

    EP 30 Bourbon Break: Brandon & Bobby Go Beer Mode

    Send us a text After Bobby’s bold declaration in a previous episode that he wanted to find a “special day beer,” the guys finally put that mission to the test. From crisp and classic to weird and wonderful, they taste their way through a lineup that might just change Bobby’s beverage identity forever. Between sips, the conversation drifts the way it always does — into life updates, the chaos of the week, and a deep dive into car movies. The hosts debate which classics deserve a remake, which ones should be left untouched, and which ones they’d personally reboot if Hollywood ever gave them the keys. It’s friendship, flavor, nostalgia, and a little bit of chaos… just the way you like it. Support the show Instagram Facebook TheOldfashonedfriendship@gmail.com

    EP-25 Old Bardstown & the Secrets Beneath the Surface

    Send us a text  We crack open a bottle of Old Bardstown bourbon and let the conversation roam free. From the artful deployment of the F-bomb to our future home improvement schemes, we explore what it means to dream big—and sometimes weird. Do get-rich-quick schemes ever pan out? Can you actually own a gold mine, or are you better off with a metal detector and a capybara for company? We dive deep into ocean mysteries, skim the surface of WWII, and try to figure out if anyone really knows what’s going on beneath the waves. It’s a bourbon-fueled brainstorm with a side of historical chaos.  Support the show Instagram Facebook TheOldfashonedfriendship@gmail.com
