EP-39 From Port Barrels to Pool Tables: A Very OFF Episode
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Episode 39 brings a bottle with a story — Woodinville Port Finished Bourbon — and somehow turns into one of our most chaotic, nostalgic, and unexpectedly heartfelt episodes yet. We crack open a $40 Washington bottle that punches way above its weight, debate whether it’s better neat or as an old fashioned, and accidentally discover that simple syrup might be the real star of the show.
Between sips, we dive into the behind‑the‑scenes grind of growing the podcast: merch finally in hand, cameras on the horizon, and the dream of filming our first distillery tour. We talk lotteries (Pappy and Bowman), proxies, and the financial black hole that is “a passion project.”
Then things go off the rails — in true OFF fashion — with a full breakdown of Bucky’s bathrooms, gas‑station brisket, bar nostalgia, pool tables disappearing from America, and why fancy bars will never beat a good dive with loud music and questionable decisions.
If you’re here for bourbon reviews, friendship chaos, or just two guys spiraling into laughter over absolutely nothing, this one’s for you.
