The Firkin Podcast - Every Drink Tells a Story

We welcome Clark Absher, Chief Business Development Officer at Hatfield Media, to share some bourbon and stories of being a musician, playing hockey, and what it's like to be a part of a cutting edge media production company. Clark and team are in the business of making shit cool and definitely deserve a huge shoutout for what they're producing in house. We wrap the show with a bit of a "deek and dangle", challenging Clark to define some fun hockey slang.

We have Cecy Linzey on the show this week, as we close out Women's History Month. Cecy is the Co-Founder and COO of Mr & Mrs Bourbon Co and her art is featured right on the label. Cecy brings us a trove of gifts and we get to enjoy a nice lineup from MMBC, including a special bottle of Ethan Almighty. Cecy is challenged to sort her bourbons into Hogwarts Houses to close out the show. Apologies for the audio quality in the first half of the show. There were some technical difficulties with the board. We have a new one now! Find that in Episode 3.

We're kicking off season 2 live at Bellarmine University for the inaugural Sip & Swish celebration. We're featuring a single barrel Green River release in honor of the Bellarmine University Men's College Basketball Team. Join us as we speak with Head Coach Scotty Davenport, Owensboro artist Aaron Kizer, who provided the special artwork for the bottle, musician Scarlett Call, and returning guests, from Hemingway Whiskey Company, Jacob Call and Forrest Smallwood.This was an incredible event to be part of. We're super excited to be back for a new season!
