Whiskey@Work

The border might be closed, but the bar is wide open! On this episode of Whiskey@Work, Rob and Mark welcome back their favorite Canadian rockers, the Arcana Kings, for an international whiskey summit that’s all about building bridges and busting chops. The crew reminisces about wild Sturgis rallies, epic recording sessions, and the finer points of bagpipes in rock. Things get especially spirited as the gang swaps rare pours: Saskatoon’s Lucky Bastard single malt and the fire-breathing Jack Daniel’s Coy Hill straight from Tennessee. With a little friendly heckling and a whole lot of laughter, both sides sign a “Treaty of the Barrel” and prove once again that good music and great whiskey can fix just about anything.

Hop into this episode of Whiskey@Work, where things get pretty amphibious. Mark and Rob take a wild detour through the world of frogs, covering everything from pet snakes at the bar and freeze-proof Alaskan frogs to the surprisingly tough hairy frog that can actually make its own claws. They also get into the infamous poison dart frog, some wild frog trivia, and why Ireland’s native toad prefers running over hopping.After the amphibian adventure, the guys finally sip on Natterjack Irish Whiskey, which is triple distilled, aged in ex-bourbon barrels, and finished in new American oak. Along the way, they answer important questions, like whether this whiskey tastes like frog and if it goes well with a Kermit impression. Come for the whiskey, stay for the frog facts, and walk away with a new appreciation for weird Irish toads. Cheers!

In this episode of Whiskey@Work, Mark and Rob dig into the newly released Jack Daniel’s 14-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey, one of the oldest and rarest expressions Jack has ever put on the shelf. They break down the surprising history of Jack's age-stated whiskeys, why the brand dropped age statements for decades, and what led them back to long-aged bourbon in today’s market. Plus, the guys talk about Chris Stapleton’s Traveller becoming the first official whiskey of Major League Baseball, and a new addition to the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection: E.H. Taylor Bottled-in-Bond. Along the way, there's a little roadside confession, a look ahead to the Sturgis Jack Tasting event, and a bold new concept: the Mountain West Pork Butt-Off.

After a long detour through tequila country, the boys are back on the bourbon trail—and this time, they’ve got country music star Brandon Jones riding shotgun. In this episode of Whiskey@Work, Mark and Rob crack open Row 94, the new celebrity bourbon from Dierks Bentley, and talk all things music, whiskey, and...Chad Greenway? From activated charcoal hangover hacks to awkward Viking fan confessions, this one’s got everything—including a whiskey designed to pair with cigarettes.

On this final leg of our tequila adventure, we dive into the smoky world of mezcal! Rob and Mark sip their way through artisanal spirits, debate wolves vs. leopards, confess their tragic 8th-grade hair choices, and welcome special guest Clay Birkeland to raise the IQ—and the glass—just a little. Plus, we gear up for Mountain West Fiesta Fest with tales of tequila, trust, and a surprising amount of talk about perms. It's smoky, it’s silly, and it's a perfect send-off to our tequila series!

The tequila train keeps rollin’ on Whiskey@Work! This week, Rob and Mark tackle Añejo tequila, diving into two very different bottles: Herradura Ultra and Corazón aged in Blanton’s barrels. Along the way, they cough through a cold, reminisce about mezcal mishaps, argue over proof levels, and somehow squeeze in some bourbon news—including Jefferson’s return to basics and Weller’s big win overseas. Plus, they prep for the upcoming Mountain West Fiesta Fest with a few laughs, a few regrets, and probably too much tequila.

This week on Whiskey@Work, it's part two of our Tequila@Work series, and Rob and Mark dive into the world of Blanco tequila with a surprise guest—Teramana, courtesy of Dwayne The Rock Johnson. They break down Highland vs. Lowland agave, explore the magic of copper pot stills, and discover that maybe tequila has been getting a bad rap all along. There's also big whiskey news: Buffalo Trace is underwater, Maker’s Mark is trying something totally new, and Wild Turkey brings an 8-year legend back to the U.S. Plus, someone drank Mark’s prized bottle of Redbreast from Ireland… and we’re not letting it slide.

We’re trading whiskey barrels for agave fields this month—it’s Tequila@Work! Rob and Mark kick off a month-long journey into the world of tequila, starting at the bottom and sipping their way up. With questionable intros, knife talk, dream analysis, and some surprisingly heartfelt appreciation for mixto tequila, this episode sets the stage for a wild ride to Mountain West Fiesta Fest. If you’ve ever licked, slammed, sucked, and regretted—this one’s for you.
