Lots of Shenanigans and a little whiskey

Looking for a whiskey podcast to replace one that ended and came across these guys. It isn’t so much a whiskey podcast even though they discuss it every episode. It is entertaining though. It’s 90% shenanigans and 10% whiskey, but unlike most other “whiskey” podcasts this one is actually entertaining. I mean where else are you going to hear a story of a guy fighting a kangaroo?!?!?!? I’d relate this closer to the entertainment like the Dollop. If looking for a whisky podcast, I’d go for Whisky Noobs (shoutout to Chris, even if it’s on pause now). But I’d say this is still worth a listen for the entertainment.

Two guys and many bottles.

From the moment you hit play, it's clear that Will and the Greeze have an authentic passion for the amber nectar, and their chemistry is the secret ingredient that makes "The Podcask" and the community so enjoyable. Their banter is both witty and genuine, creating an atmosphere that feels like you're sharing a few pours with good friends. Cheers to The Podcask for delivering a five-star experience for bourbon lovers everywhere!
