  • Big In Japan
    Jul 19 2024

    Paul Nakayama sits down with Greg and Sother to talk about Nikaido Shochu. Paul's journey into the world of shochu began with a 12-hour boat ride to a remote Japanese island on his honeymoon. Now he and his wife are the first to import Nikaido Shochu to the US. Tune in to hear about the magic of Koji, the place it occupies in modern Japan, and how it works in cocktails and highballs. Spoiler alert, but one answer might actually be “with Cherry Coke.” Plus, the state of the world kinda sucks right now but don’t worry. Greg has a plan to fix it.

  • Obviously You're Not a Golfer
    Jul 12 2024

    Golf. It’s a sport enjoyed by millions of people and it can also be almost as divisive as modern politics. Can it only be enjoyed by the landed gentry and the country club set? Turner Lewis doesn’t think so and he’s out to prove the haters wrong with Fore Craft Cocktails, a line of RTDs designed for the golf course but, as tested by our boundary-pushing hosts, also thoroughly drinkable off of one. The brand founder sits down with Greg and Sother to talk about getting a cocktail line up and running in less than a year (and during a pandemic no less) why he had to drive a rental truck overnight from Wisconsin to Virginia, and what he thinks about ruining a good walk. Plus, Greg has a golf course encounter of his own to share. Tune in to hear about it!
