Who Gives A Dram

08/08/2023

Had my little sister Grace on Who Gives A Dram this week to talk her musical theater career. I also put her through a blind tasting of four Buffalo Trace whiskeys to see which one she’d like the best. Her answer may surprise you 👀

It was an awesome & hilarious conversation. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it! 🥃

I was thrilled to be joined on Who Gives A Dram this week with one of my best friends in the entire world.

Tessa is one of the strongest most badass people I know. Thank you for driving over to the WGAD studios and drinking some expensive scotch with me!

The conversation doesn’t end at whiskey, though. We discuss a wide range of topics, including dealing with death, the 2023 Bourbon Ball, her new podcast ‘Dead By Suicidie’, and much more.

This week, I am joined on the podcast by my pal Chris from the Podcast. We talk about podcasting and creating content within the whiskey field, how Chris started his show, why we drink whiskey, and much more.

Chris is one of my favorite creators within our space and we had a great conversation. It is an especially interesting convo for those looking to get into creating content and/or podcasting, as we both elaborate on our journeys within the whiskey space.

New Episode Out Now!

This week, I sit down again with my cousin Ryan Bolduc, who’s coming off the heels of a 2000lb total this past weekend at his RPS Powerlifting Meet. That total included an 835lb deadlift, 735lb squat, and 435lb bench press. A deadlift of 835lbs puts Ryan in the Top 200 deadlifters in the WORLD.

We talk about the day of the meet, training, what he eats on meet day, psyching himself up for 835lbs, self doubt, and the most food Ryan’s ever eaten in one sitting, all while sipping on a dram of Bunnahabhain 12yr to celebrate like gentlemen. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed as hard on a podcast as I do during this episode.

Make sure you follow Ryan’s progress (and mine hehe) over at

Episode available now on all platforms 🥃

🚨🚨AMAZING TRANSFORMATION🚨🚨

First picture - Overweight, not happy, zero confidence, no whiskey consumption

Second picture - very happy, lots of confidence, long flowing hair, sharp jaw line, daily whiskey consumption (mainly Mellow Corn).

The key take away here is to eat your vegetables, take your vitamins, and drink your whiskey. If it worked for me, it can work for you.

Haven’t been on IG much the past few days, but I wanted to drop in to recommend these two bottles. was kind enough to send these to the BWF crew and joined the show back in Sept. 2022. I unfortunately could not make that taping, but I reviewed these two this past week on WGAD. I was pleasantly surprised, and I’d recommend picking these bottles up if you can get your hands on them. They represent solid qualities of both Irish whiskey and American Whiskey (Rye/Bourbon).

Do you enjoy Keepers Heart Whiskey?

Enjoying some time in the mountains this weekend! Thank you so much for the hospitality and for showing us Eastern boys the Rocky’s. Thank you for tagging along as well - it wouldn’t have been the same if you weren’t here!

The two barrels we picked, one at 291 and one at 10th Mountain, are delicious. Did we pick my favorites for each barrel because I have the best palate? Yes. But that’s neither here nor there, it was a team effort.

I suggest you come out to Colorado and see the Rocky Mountains at least one time in person before you die. Pictures don’t do it justice. It’s beautiful.

Wanted to switch things up. Let me know what y’all think.

Needed something new to reflect my love for both whiskey and movies. Now, I’m no , but it’s something I love, and a direction I’ve been taking the show in for a while now. I wanted my artwork to reflect that.

Note: I am declaring now that the superhero flying off the M in ‘Dram’ is Henry Cavil’s Superman. Feel like this needed to be said.

Thank you all for supporting Who Gives a Dram. 🥃
