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.

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.

Great podcast! Nothing better than learning about music and cocktails!
Fun hang
Full disclosure: I’ve been mixing and editing the most recent episodes since just before the re-vamp and am friends with the hosts, but, as someone who spends hours on these episodes I have to say that when I’m done I genuinely feel like I got to hang out with my buddies, listen to a cool album, and learn a few interesting things about music and/or alcohol. Also, it’s fun to hear the hosts’ energy and inhibitions shift after drink number 2 and into the end of the episode. It’s a good time, you won’t regret it (unless, perhaps, you drink along at home).
