311. Noah Rothbaum & the Whiskey Bible

On this episode, Dan welcomes two whiskey powerhouses and adds his own poetic flair to the mix. First up is Noah Rothbaum, acclaimed spirits authority and author of The Whiskey Bible: A Complete Guide to the World’s Greatest Spirit. Noah breaks down why whiskey remains a global obsession, offering insights, history, and a few surprising stories you won’t find anywhere else. Then, Dan sits down with Blake Johns, the man behind Smokeye Hill, an exciting new whiskey brand that’s already turning heads. Blake shares the vision, passion, and flavor profile that set Smokeye Hill apart in a crowded market. And because no summer is complete without a proper cocktail, Dan closes things out with something special: an original poem—his ode to the refreshing drink that helped him survive the sweltering heat of Los Angeles. Whiskey wisdom, entrepreneurial spirit, and a dash of poetic comedy... this one’s got it all.
