Well, we made it. The end of the third book. There's a lot of twists, turns, love and rage that look eerily similar, the defilement of a throne, broken furniture, broken promises, betrayals in the name of love, and angst angst angst. But now it's over. We can finally relax. We....WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE ARE TWO MORE BOOKS??? Pass the Ransom Bourbon, please.

There's a moment when you realize that there's something you need to talk about. There's another moment when you realize there just isn't enough time to really talk about it. This is one of those times as we discuss DRAGONS in Iron Flame by Rececca Yarros. Tonight we revisit our old friend, Smoke Wagon Small Batch Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2025/03/18

Once more, Stephen and Mark will dare to enter the Fourth Wing universe, written by Rebecca Yarros. This is book 2 of the series, and if you thought things were wild before, what with all the lightning and exploding bedroom furniture, you're in for another amazing ride. Besgiath War College (not to mention everywhere else) is a dangerous place, and so the guys will need to have some luck on their side on this journey. That's why they're bringing Lucky Seven bourbon with them.

2025/03/01

In this episode, Stephen and Mark visit "The Bright Sword" by Lev Grossman. One of our favorite authors, we are so excited to read his latest novel about Camelot after Arthur's final battle and all that was left undone and unfinished. For such a story, it's only appropriate that the boys continue their journey of the 2XO Bourbon label with the French Oak expression.

2025/02/14

The guys have never made it a secret about how much they love books written by Blake Crouch. In today's episode, they talk about Crouch's first commercially successful novel, not previously released in the United States. What if, in a single night, half of everyone you knew and loved suddenly no longer saw you as a friend, a lover, a family member? What if they were trying to murder you because they were convinced that you were no longer one of them? A high octane book like this needs something

"We Forgot Everything" - Season 4 Finale. OOPSISODE

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2024/11/01

In the final FINAL episode of Season 4, Stephen and Mark become so enamored with 2XO Bourbon from the last episode, they decide to make Old Fashioneds with it and completely forget to talk about what they forgot to talk about in "The Halloween Tree" by Ray Bradbury. Witness the chaos as the boys fall down the cocktail rabbit hole as they decide to try to invent their own cocktails. Maybe they're just tired. Maybe it's been a long season. Maybe the 2XO is just that good.

2024/10/31

For the Season Four Finale, Stephen and Mark turn to a classic tale from a hometown author close to their hearts, The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury.

Good thing they have a fantastic new beverage to sample and distract everyone from the Halloween hysterics.

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2024/10/22

In the countdown to the season finale, Stephen and Mark stray from the path of horror into a subtle and delighfully complex scifi story about a monk, a robot, and the questions perhaps everyone should be asking of themselves and each other. A subtle and complex tale deserves a subtle and complex bourbon paired with it, and this episode is no exception as our co-hosts sample Blade & Bow for the first time. NOTE: In this episode, Stephen and Mark both struggle with pronoun usage for the characters.
