Jeff Gage: It Sounded Like A Good Idea At The Time

1h 19m · Whiskey Business · 26 Sep 18:40

Whiskey Business went “dry” for only the second time in our history of podcasting, tossing a nod to those giving Sober September a shot and accommodating our guest, Jeff Gage who’s made a decision to stop drinking as well.  Good, hot coffee was served and provided the opportunity to discuss those times when drinking didn’t turn out so well. We’ve all been there. There was humor in the stories but also lessons in the mix as well. Sometimes it’s good to take a step back and see where you’ve been with booze and more importantly where you are. Hindsight CAN BE 20/20, but only if you able to see it. Enjoy a sobering Whiskey Business and take care of yourselves. We’ll be back with another good pour and conversation in the days to come.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Getting "Down to the Felt"

Whiskey Business came back from hiatus right around the same time the largest local independent film ever made in Columbus, DOWN TO THE FELT wrapped on principal photography. Coincidence? No. Our host for Whiskey Business was one of the writers and producers of the film and he along with Director/Writer/Producer Jon Osbeck and Writer/Producer Ralph Scott, sat on the guest side of the table as John Whitney, Greg Hansberry and Chip Kocel asked all the burning movie questions. The Down To The Felt story is a journey into independent filmmaking and still has the post production process to go through. But it IS a testament to what can be done in Columbus, Ohio with the right talents, the right crew and yeah…a little bit of luck and serendipity. Go “all in” and enjoy this return to Whiskey Business. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Just Sweats Murder Case: A Whiskey Business Deposition Part 2

The tables are still turned on this installment of Whiskey Business as our host, Dino Tripodis, was the guest. The topic was a True Crime case he was instrumental in solving. A case of MURDER! No, he didn’t commit it, but he was an integral part in the pursuit of the people who did. The Just Sweats Case was an insurance fraud for murder case that started in 1988 and ended in 1992 with John Hawkins, the alleged mastermind behind the whole plot being the last one apprehended and tried and convicted for conspiracy to commit murder. Attorney, Bill Mattes, is back to navigate it all, digging deep into the case. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hope Madden & George Wolf: OSCAR-HEIMER!

Another Oscar year is nearing but it wouldn’t be official for us here at Whiskey Business without our annual visit from George Wolf and Hope Madden from The Screening Room podcast. There may appear to be some slam dunks if you’re in an Oscar pool, but I’m going to suggest you listen up/or watch to see if some upsets are predicted as well in our discussion of Oscar gold. If you love the movies it’s one of our favorite podcasts of the year. And if you only saw BARBIE, this is your chance to get educated before Oscars are awarded on March 10, 2024. That being said, I’d like to thank the podcast academy, my audio and video producers, my family who seldom listens… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Martin Kennedy & Pat Byrne: GO BUA OR GO HOME

Whiskey Business loves being the first kid on the block with something special and on this podcast we got the sneak peek of some NEW Irish Whiskeys from BUA which originates here in Columbus but is made with tender, Irish care in Ireland. What I called “fightin’ whiskey was a single grain but there were also some single malts that were finished in tawny port casks, ALL of them great including the BUA Original which has come a long way since we sampled Batch #1 a few years back. Great whiskey coupled with great stories from Martin and Pat made for a great podcast that went “into the wee” hours of the evening and probably could gone on even more. Enjoy this batch of podcasting with a good pour, but if I were you…I’d bring the whole bottle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
