THE BOCCE BROS: My Balls Ain’t Bigger, They’re Just Better.

1h 12m · Whiskey Business · 19 Sep 01:03

And now that we have your attention, we’re talking about Bocce, as Chris and Dante Lovell, AKA The Bocce Bros returned to Whiskey Business to talk about the rising popularity of the sport, be you a casual player or a competitive one. But as is the case on our show we went down several paths: sibling rivalries, family, relationships, crazy stories from the past and yeah…some metaphorical “ball busting.” All if it accompanied by a bottle of Sagamore Rye which went down faster than a striking bocce ball. A lot of fun. A lot of laughs. And a lot of whiskey. (They dove into my stash once the Sagamore was drained.) Pickleball ain’t nothin’! Bocce, baby…Bocce. Enjoy. Learn more about your ad choices.

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

They are however, the behind the scenes movers and shakers of influence; be it political, business related or other miscellaneous agendas. Steve Dimon has been a lobbyist for 30 plus years and gave us an inside look into the job that some deem as evil while others consider it a needed ally for success. What are YOUR perceptions?
