The same way you'd pair wine with a meal, we pair cocktails with music. We take a spirit, match it with a genre of music, and make a playlist to go with various cocktail selections. Enjoy the spirits and the sounds, and remember to imbibe responsibly.

    Lionel Ritchie & Even More Cosmos

    It's been way too long. Alex takes a stab at bartending, mixing some Cosmopolitan riffs for the crew, while we reflect on another secret Totos album, Lionel Ritchie's "Can't Slow Down" form 1983. We promise we won't leave you this long without new eps ever again! Have fun out there.

    Steely Dan & Highballs

    The boys finally dig into one of the richest, most layered record of the 1970s. That's right, Steely Dan's Aja. And what better types of cocktails to match with this level of studio perfectionism and virtuosity than a set of precision made highball drinks? Have fun out there.

    Shots & Beers & Supergroups

    The crew listens to two records showcasing legendary artist combinations, while tasting the most legendary of beverage combinations - the Boilermaker; that's right....a shot and a beer. Hear what kind of rye fits with the raspy whisper of Tom Petty in the Traveling Wilburys, and what kind of Pale Ale works best with the commanding baritone of Johnny Cash from the Highwaymen. Plus much more. Have fun out there.

    Drinking Through the 80s Part 2 of 2: Steve Winwood's Back in the High Life

    We round out our 2 parter on the eighties with the more urbane, yuppie side of the decade, both musically, and mixologically. Alex talks about how Patrick Bateman should have had this record as one of his featured album reviews in American psycho, while Crist misses Van Halen, and Ian and Skye enjoy the "Finer Things" like a classy wet Martini. Have fun out there.

    Drinking Through the 80s Part 1 of 2: Van Halen's 1984

    The Record Club tries to salvage some of the most tarnished of eighties drinks by elevating the quality of ingredients, with results ranging from creating some newfound respect for some previously maligned mixed drinks, to solidifying others in the category of 'unsalvageable.' One thing was decided as indisputable: VAN HALEN ROCKS. Have fun out there.

    The Cabin Chronicles - New Cocktail Inventions & A Grab Bag of Disco

    Skye and Alex convene in an undisclosed remote location in the Shenandoah Valley and go head to head on their ideas for riffs on classics. Sit back with some early disco from Watler Murphy and the Silver Convention, while we compare and rank Alex's "Dancing Queens Cocktail, Skye's "Final Ward" and more. Have fun out there.

    Frank Sinatra and a "Dealer's Choice" of Old School Drinks

    We dove into the music of Old Blue Eyes, and one of his most lush, introspective, and velvety records, 1959's "No One Cares," and did a little old-school cocktail lottery. Learn why some of the old drinks your grandpa and Frankie used to sip on by the fire have gone out of fashion, why some should come back, and why some should remain in obscurity.   Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.

    Record Club 6 - Hendrix & Absinthe

    We're back to dive into one of the seminal entries in the Psychedelic Rock canon - Are You Experienced? by Jimi Hendrix. And what better mixer to is there match with these far out sounds than the dubiously hallucinogenic spirit, Absinthe. Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
