0:00

Top of Dave. Seriously, dude, you're already in my head. Man.

0:05

I think I'm just gonna get a sign. I'm serious. I think

0:10

I'm gonna get a piece of paper and big gigantic letters with sharpy Wright bef

0:16

Byford from Saxon, because between you and all the listeners to hang out with

0:23

us, they are constantly on my social media. Call it Saxton. Yep,

0:28

I think you remember this little diddy here. Okay, stop it,

0:34

man, bef Byford beff Byford from Saxon will be our guestcha at eleven forty,

0:43

so stick around for that right now. Though he's my buddy, he's

0:47

your buddy, Dave. He's Jeremy Schall with the Bourbon Bourbon buddies, Bourbon

0:51

buddies, and Dave loves Bourbon, and uh it's it's happenstance. We book

1:00

this a while back. But then last night I see Jeremy Schell at the

1:03

horse Soldier Bourbon. First of all, good morning, how you doing Jeremy?

1:06

Somebody I mean happy Friday? Happy? It's like Derby week eve right

1:10

now? So why are we even working? Well? I don't have a

1:14

day off until I think May twenty fourth, there. But let's talk bourbon

1:19

because this Sunday is merby Brby Eve. It's right Brbi Eve and the bourbon.

1:26

Look, if you drink bourbon, if you don't drink bourbon, when

1:29

you come to Kentucky on Derby Week, you do drink bourbon and cocktails.

1:34

Let's talk cocktails for a little bit, because specifically, I would rather eat

1:38

a bowl of lard with a hair in it than drink the mint juli.

1:42

They are some people love them, right, some people enjoy them one week

1:48

or one day out of the year. I personally, anything with mint does

1:52

not work for me. I'm curious about Dave Jennings. Dave Jennings, he

1:56

sleeps in a bed of mint, no non minch, runs, rests at

2:00

ruins, drinks. It's kind of like shrimp. Oh no, I love

2:04

shrimp, but I agree with you on men. Like here's what I hate

2:07

is when Hey, you want a chocolate, I'm like, yeah, sure,

2:09

and they'll hand it to me. It's like a chocolate mint and I'm

2:12

like no, no, no, of course not. But let's talk meant

2:15

julobs because they're not a difficult so they're not really difficult to make. But

2:22

there's all the pain. They're a pain to make. They're muddeling. You

2:24

know, I'm just saying you can do it if you want, but it's

2:29

time consuming. You muddle the men all this other crap. Let's talk pre

2:32

made selections when it comes to ment, Julips, do you have any people

2:37

are having derby parties? Next? Well, let's it's also address you made

2:39

a perfect point about muddling or just complicated cocktails, you know, making.

2:45

You know, we've all been there, we've all had parties. You're making a cocktail for a friend, You're enjoying it, you're shilling off, you're

2:49

flipping bottles, you're dropping back on the floor, you know, but you're

2:52

having fun. Yes, But when all of a sudden all your friends pop

2:55

out from behind the couch and out of the closet and they're like, hey,

2:58

make me one too, and you're like, oh crap, this is more than I want to do. And then all of a sudden you make

3:02

a mess. You're like, oh, my wife's clay kill me if I

3:05

don't clean this right up. Now. They're a pain. So halving the

3:07

pre made cocktails, of the pre made syrups just to add to them can

3:12

be convenient, but they're never nearly as good, which again for the mendulup,

3:16

they're never nearly good period. But some people do enjoy them. But

3:20

there are brands out there. Old Forester makes a decent pre batched It's got

3:24

Old Forester whiskey already in there, it's got the syrup, it's got everything

3:28

done. You just pour it over ice, maybe add a little garnish to

3:30

it. You're good to go. Maker's Mark makes one. Two other brands

3:35

make the syrup that's already the jar. All you do is just add it

3:37

right to your whiskey of choice and you're going to go. But the beauty

3:40

of this is it doesn't matter. Although we love bourbon here, we do

3:45

think bourbon is really the only spirit that you should enjoy. But some people

3:50

do like vodka, some people do like tequila, and there are a lot

3:53

of cocktails like them and julip that you can make with other spirits. Yeah,

3:55

so they are flexible. So those people that might be a little bit

3:59

off their rocker that might enjoy like vodka or tequila, you can make the

4:01

mensule up with those as well. Again, they're still not good, but

4:05

some people do enjoy them. I think Bill Benford is a vodka guy.

4:09

Stop it's but here's a song for you guys. Okay, when will you

4:18

marry me? Bill? When will you marry me? When will you marry

4:23

me? Beffffffff Biff, just just think back to the future. Beff,

4:30

Beff. I'm seriously going to put signs up in the studio saying beff Byford

4:34

from Saxon in here driving me crazy. So yeah, here's about four years

4:42

ago. Two guys, Steve Bowles and uh Brett Weatherby got me smoking and

4:46

cooking, and since then I've been man, it's my passion. But then

4:50

a couple of years ago I expanded that into what about making drinks. I

4:55

started getting into drinks and all this other stuff ex But because I like my

4:58

I drink number one to quila. Then you smoked ice cubes, Yes,

5:02

yes, which will and we'll get to that. Yeah, you're right,

5:04

Dave. But for the for the most part, I drink number one tequila

5:09

on the rocks. I will say that in an old fashion, made with

5:14

number one extra and Jeho is beautiful. But I want to talk for a

5:17

second, because I started experimenting with that and some of these drinks I've made

5:21

there's muddling, And what I find out is if you muddle too much,

5:25

that's why these pre mixes are so good. If you muddle too much,

5:28

it doesn't just release the flavor of what you're muddling, but it'll release chloroform

5:32

as well. Correct which worried if you're trying to knock somebody out. But

5:36

chloroform chlorophyl, I'm sorry, not chloroform. That's that's that's called the cosbypolitan.

5:45

Uh, chlorophyl. Sorry, So if you muddle too hard, it's

5:50

going to release the chlorophyl. You don't want to bruise the garnis. You

5:56

want to just sort of squeeze so many juices out. But again, these

5:59

are if you're making a till for yourself, for your significant other, or

6:01

for a friend, they're fine, but they can be time consuming and not

6:04

everyone has all the different ingredients to make different cocktails at home. What I

6:10

really enjoy, especially with cocktails, are ones that are versatile and flexible enough,

6:14

especially during derby time when you've got a bunch of people around where you

6:16

can make them. Oh. I like vanka, I like tequila. I

6:19

like bourbon drinks, whether it be the like the gin Ricky great cocktail with

6:24

gin, but you can make it with bourbon as well, just substute doubt

6:27

you can make it with tequila. There's one of my favorites. It's called

6:30

the horse Neck. It's a sense the horse neck, oh neck, neck

6:34

neck. The other one's a different drink, need a big glass, but

6:46

that's one is basically just a high ball with a lemon peel added to it.

6:48

So bourbon certainly high balls, yes, uh or low balls short lists

6:56

how the horse is all right. But one of the most one of the

6:59

most popular drinks out there, or I see them, at least I see

7:02

them a lot, is the Moscow Mule. Yes, and we have a

7:06

wonderful variation here in Kentucky called the Kentucky Mule. It's made with bourbon.

7:11

Oh wow, okay, but I will say that. So we've been working

7:14

late nights with the bxology team here at iHeartMedia. Yeah, with your research

7:17

and development team and the whole R and D team. They've been all at

7:20

that. I think they're in their basement right now. Oh really. Yeah.

7:23

So they've been working on this and we've come up with a new one

7:25

because again, you've got to have that versatile cocktail. Yeah, yeah,

7:29

you take at your cocktails just for Dwight Wooden, for me, for you.

7:32

Oh boy, So this is basically you take your Kentucky mule. Okay,

7:35

so tequila, some of the crushed ice, O, ginger beer,

7:40

the lime juice sounds great, and we're gonna call it the Kentucky Jackass.

7:44

Okay, oh okay, that's the cocktail for Dwight Witten. I'm telling you,

7:47

I started to feel like danger fielding when you're making a mixed drink.

7:53

Is it a waste to put quality bourbon into a mixed drink? Or the

7:58

better whiskey, the better alcohol you put it in, the better cocktail you're

8:01

gonna have, no matter what. Even if it's a pre mix it's it still makes a difference. That The real goal with any cocktails you want to

8:07

be able to taste all the ingredients. You want to be balanced. You don't want to be overwhelming. The one problem I find with a lot of

8:13

people that will do different cocktails and go I'm gonna put a cheap eighty six

8:16

proof whiskey is it doesn't hold up, especially under other ingredients that are in

8:20

the drink. You want to taste everything you want to experience a very balanced

8:24

cocktail, and sometimes you just want to have a little something that's really high

8:28

proof. But usually something right around a hundred proof will always hold up well

8:31

in a cocktail and know better alcohol will certainly taste even better. Always have

8:37

the old Forester signature around Forester product out there. This is reordable and just

8:43

what's the price point of that one? Guys you it's about forty bucks for

8:46

a handle? Okay, wow, Yeah, great product made here locally and

8:50

just underrated. But it's it's for a while there it was hard to find.

8:54

All of a sudden, I think people found out about it and you

8:56

just couldn't see these things anymore. Yeah, but you say, the better, the the better a cocktail. And when we talk about mixed drinks,

9:03

what would you do though, if somebody took a twenty year pappy and they said, you know, why give me a pappy in big red? Wouldn't

9:07

that be a bastardization of a great bourbon? Well? You know, first

9:11

of all, when your friends come over, you always want to share great

9:15

times with great people with great whiskey. Is that why you always give me

9:18

the cheap stff? That's why you get the cheapestuffly hide the Civil War.

9:22

Anytime you come to the house. Nothing but Kentucky Tavern for Dwight. Hey,

9:26

I wis you think Kentucky Tavern from the forties and fifties, it will

9:31

be some of the best whiskey you'll ever drink in your life. You try

9:33

Kentucky Tavern from today. We serve it for Dwight every time it comes over

9:37

you. As a matter of fact, what is the worst well bourbon one

9:41

you don't finish? You know, I don't think there's I think there's something

9:48

out there for everybody. I don't like to bash any product out there,

9:52

you know, again, whether it be your wallet or your palate, drink

9:54

which you like, Drink what you can afford, drink it responsibly and just have a great time with your friends. But to me, that's the only

9:58

way to go about it. But there are some some that are better than

10:01

others. You know, if you go out. You know, for me, when I go out to a restaurant a bar, you obviously, especially

10:07

here in Kentucky, you could find so many quality products on the menu and

10:09

the prices are going to be I have to tell you, folks, this

10:11

week is the worst time to buy any alcohol from a restaurant because everyone's going

10:16

to make their money in the following week, is it? Really? All

10:18

the prices go up, all the tourists here in town, and you know what, kudos to the restaurants. They know people are going to pay to

10:22

try stuff they can't find back home. So this is not the week if

10:26

you're a local to go ahead and try things. But I do enjoy trying

10:30

stuff at some of the local restaurants and bars. Just you know, if you never had it, try it see if you like it before you spend

10:35

an ungodly amount of money for it at a retailer from somebody else. But

10:39

I do think there's so many good products out there that can afford that are

10:43

just overlooked because of this this fomo of people. That you can have these

10:46

great names that are just floating around, like you know, I don't like

10:50

you know, say, like the Wellers and the peppies and the blends,

10:52

and they're all good, but for some of the prices, maybe somebody else

10:56

the whit Wooding's scount can afford it. I'll show you my quest for seed.

11:01

I promise you we can't. Jeremy Shells I guess the Bourbon Show.

11:05

He's our show's bourbon officiato. But I got to ask you this man,

11:09

there's a lot you're you're also a bourbon collector. I've been to your house

11:15

of senior collect I don't know if I like the word collect I just have more than I can drink in ten lifetimes. Okay, yeah, no,

11:20

right, or responsibly drink. But I think it's Blattens right now. They

11:24

have something going on where they have these small globes and a different horse.

11:30

Is it going from start to finish or something like that, or spell something

11:33

out because I was at the down Syndrome Gallup Gala last Friday with the wife

11:37

and that was one of the auction items. It was quite beautiful. But

11:43

I'm not a bourbon guy. Is it difficult to get every one of those

11:46

globes? And if so, what are the globes? Well, the bottles

11:50

are gorgeous. It's kind of around. He got a bottle with a horseman

11:54

top and he's beautiful, different position throughout its pace, around on the race

12:00

sto. Okay, and each one. Of course. Blayton's has been around

12:03

since eighty four and about the mid nineties they were looking for ways to sell

12:07

more whiskey, and so somebody had a genius idea that says, hey,

12:11

if we if we take a different pose of the horse, put a letter

12:16

on it, we spell these out into blatons, then we'll sell more bottles

12:20

because people want to collect these. So it became I like to call it the happy meal of bourbons. You got to collect them all. If you

12:28

collect them all and send them to Buffalo Trace, they will mount them on

12:31

a stave for you instead it back as a nice presentation. Are you serious?

12:33

They will do that, but they are hard to find now, they

12:35

are very difficult to find them all. Did they release them one at a

12:39

time or what was the deal? Typically it's a great thing. If you ever go do a tour at Buffalo Trace and they have the most expensive tour

12:45

in the industry, it's completely free. It's just hard to sign up for

12:48

because they're always booked out months in advance. But when you walk in there,

12:50

literally they've got they're hand done, they're hand wax, they're hand labeled.

12:54

But there's a big bag of just these huge, you know, huge

12:58

bag of all these stoppers and they just each in there, grab one and

13:00

each one's a different letter, and they just put them on. So there's no rhyme or reason to what letter ends up on what bottle, on what

13:05

day of the week that they bottle. It's just you got to go out

13:07

there and find them. Now. I've talked to people that say, hey, take a road trip to middle of nowhere, Ohio and hit liquor stores.

13:13

You'll find things you can't find here. Have you tried that Ohio is

13:16

a great place to find things. That it is a control state, unlike

13:20

here in Kentucky, where we have a sort of an open commerce where people

13:24

can sell things for whatever they want. In Ohio that the state does control

13:28

the distribution and the pricing. So it is the land of Weller. If

13:31

you're looking for a Weller special reserve or Weller antake, Ohio is very good

13:35

about that. Ironically, I've been hearing from people lately that Boston can find

13:39

Blatant's everywhere in Boston, really, which is is ft, but it's landa

13:45

Samuel Adams. They like their beer there, so Blaton's just kind of sits on the shelf. Well Man. I still got some time on my notes

13:50

with some questions I wanted to ask you can you stick around for real in

13:54

the years and maybe just for a little bit of all right, we're talking Bourbon. It's Derby Week next week. Everything bourbon. You find it on

14:01

the Bourbon Show with Jeremy Schelle. Stick around. We're gonna be playing Ruling

14:05

in the years. But first, right now, Shady Rays, Baby,

14:09

I love my Shady Rays. I wore my Lagoon lenses, my Lagoon aviators

14:13

in this morning. I want you to go and look and see how beautiful

14:16

these lenses are, absolutely amazing. But also when you go by the Oxmore

14:22

Center in Shady Rais and say, hey, can I try on the color

14:26

Rush because the color Rush, I wore my color Rush out last night and

14:31

everything is just so bright and vibrant. All the reds, the yellows on

14:35

the street, the yellow lines on the road, they pop. Everything pops

14:39

with these color rushes. And guys, listen to this. If you use

14:43

code whas in store at Shady Rays or online at Shady rays dot com,

14:48

you're gonna get fifty percent off two or more pair of Shady Rays. That's

14:52

why I have so many, because once I buy one, I want to

14:56

buy two because of fifty percent off and on and on and on. You're

14:58

gonna love shady rais. And if you scratch them, break them, if

15:01

they're stolen, if you lose them, they replace them. Shady Rays in

15:05

the Oxmore Center or Shadyrays dot Com. Stick around really in the years and

15:09

then more with Jeremy as we talk Bourbon for Derby Week and Biff Biford is

15:18

up at eleven o'clock. It's on the way News ray Ee forty whas,

15:24

Oh the ZZ Top Treas, Sombres News Radio eight forty whas. Before we

15:30

get to the legend that is Denise PALLAGREENI, I want to tell you,

15:35

folks, finally a place listen to this loved ones, a place that you

15:39

can trust when it comes to maintenance or prevent a maintenance on your vehicle.

15:43

Tony's breaking alignment. It's not just breaks in alignment. They do just about

15:46

anything to just about any type of vehicle. And here's the best part.

15:50

They're family owned and operated. And why is that important? Well, it's

15:54

important because family owned and operated local businesses. They just care more about their

15:58

name, they care more about their product. And that's where you're gonna get

16:02

the second you walk in Tony's Break and Alignment. They are so confident in

16:07

their work, and then they should be. They have the best technicians and

16:11

the best diagnostic diagnostic equipment that money can buy. They don't give you just

16:15

a warranty. They give you, listen to this, a three year,

16:19

thirty six thousand mile warranty on every single job they do. Put your mind

16:25

to rest. Go with Louisville's Best, that's Tony's Break and Alignments. We

16:29

go to Bloomberg's Real In the Year's Best, it's Denise pala Greenei, how

16:33

you doing, Denise? Hey, I'm okay. Nineteen eighty six, that's

16:37

my answer. That's what I'm going. Listen here, I just told Jeremy

16:41

Shell. Damn it, Jeremy show Jeremyschell, the from the Bourbon Shows in

16:48

here with us, and I'll tell them, hey, listen, we're gonna play you really in the years. Stick it in with us. Here's the

16:52

good news. In the past two days, we did the sixties and seventies,

16:56

so I'm guessing we're eighties or nineties, hopefully eighties. But here we

17:00

go, Dave, what decade all of these songs were in the top twenty

17:04

somewhere in the eighties. All right, I like to find stuff that was

17:10

kind of obscure, like you do. Greg Guidry going down. Excuse me,

17:15

you don't want Greg going down? What is? Well, it didn't

17:19

go down on the charts that I guess, not in the top twenty.

17:27

Some people thought he was kind of cute. I have no idea who it

17:30

is, Denise, you know. It was sort of like that Hall and

17:34

Oates, but just one of them. Okay, just Greg, Okay,

17:41

it's probably not helping you guys out much. Probably not helping you out.

17:47

Then there was this the Beatles movie medley, several songs mashed together somewhere in

17:56

the eighties. It's got to be earlier eighties and eighty six, way earlier.

18:07

Not helping anybody. Jeremy's got a lead on it. But let's get

18:11

a few more songs under our belt. Okay. We had Greg Guidry going

18:15

down, cooling, the gang getting down on it early coming out of the

18:19

seventies. Everyone's getting down. So yeah, it's gotta be early eighties.

18:25

Get after some words, Yeah, get down on it. I gotta try

18:32

not to sing because in the podcast there's no music. It's gotta be eighty

18:41

eight. Okay, we're going in the feel good eighties, all right.

18:47

Speaking of numbers, before the number of aids, there's a phone number,

18:53

Jenny, Jenny. This took us up a little bit. I like nineteen

18:59

eighty two for this one. Mm hmmm. I'm gravitating toward eighty two,

19:04

but I'm not sure yet who this is. Coming out of the late seventies.

19:11

You actually can sing with feelings. Thank you, wowy. Just for

19:15

that, I'm gonna call you tonight and give you forty minutes of me singing.

19:18

Don't send her any pictures, I wal all right, Okay, let's

19:22

go two now. But let's he played a doctor on General Hospital, you

19:29

know, Springfield eighty one. Oh my gosh, good advice to the kids.

19:37

You know who wrote I'll Do Anything for You, right, Sammy Hagar.

19:41

That's right baby. Wait, wait, this is a turn of a

19:45

song because this could be eighty two. Still eighty two, eighty three?

19:48

Yeah, I mean he was on the charts from seventy nine, so it's

19:55

his new album is really good? Actually, yeah, it's really good.

20:00

Can you I'm kidding, bonus, clue, I'll tell you what I'll do,

20:04

all right. The song that was number one April the twenty sixth,

20:07

somewhere in the eighties. It's eighty two. It's eighty two. She's no

20:14

Dolly Parton, No, it's nineteen eighty two. Jon jet Ow, Wow,

20:22

I had the biggest crush on her and before her, Christy McNicol.

20:26

That is so cute. Jone Jet and the what was it the black cart

20:30

black card yet? Oh my gosh, I say, I mean, I

20:34

gotta say eighty two, but I like eighty two. I like eighty two.

20:38

Man, let's lock it in, Denise Pyle Greenie, here we go,

20:42

go ahead. It was a great year. Yeah, great, it

20:45

was a great year. MTV was out all these hits in my pre teenage

20:48

year. I have a big memory of all that right now. Just lock

20:52

it in. Nineteen eighty two, Denise and Jeremy, here we go is

20:56

21:00

the twenty six nineteen eighty two. We got it. You guys got down

21:07

on it. Wow, we did, all right. So that's it.

21:11

That's the good news as we crushed it today and here with the bad news,

21:15

and the market report is in East Palegrini. Yeah, I'm a one

21:18

hit wonder because I'm off next. And actually it's not that bad today.

21:25

I mean, right now, we've got the Dow up almost two hundred points.

21:29

That's uh, you know, half a percent, man, that's one

21:33

and a half percent gain. Actually, S and P futures they're also higher,

21:37

and Nasdaq futures up one point eight percent, up two hundred and eighty

21:40

three points. A lot of optimism about tech. We had Microsoft and Google

21:45

parent Alphabet. They came out with stronger than expected quarterly results. We also

21:48

had one measure of consumer spending that was out earlier and that was stronger than

21:52

expected as well, and all this sort of ameliorating. You might say that

21:57

bad news we got earlier about in flame, where you know, inflation seemed

22:02

to be as bad or maybe even worse than some people thought, scaring people

22:06

into thinking the FED might be a do nothing fed this year. But we'll

22:08

see. It's Friday, so anyway, it looks like we'll god in the

22:11

green guys, and I hope you have a good weekends. Be bef Byford

22:18

bef Byford from did it again during the break? I know I did it

22:22

during the game break. I said, hey, Dave, don't forget.

22:26

I want Bill Bayford to come into the damn it man. And I'm tired.

22:33

It may be a little bit hungover. Maybe maybe Okay, I'm hungover.

22:37

I'm tired. But we're talking bourbon, and we're talking with the show's

22:42

bourbon officionado, Jeremy Schell from The Bourbon Show. I gotta ask you if

22:49

there's a lot of bourbons that are just showed on the internet. Okay,

22:55

you'll see it on social media sides offering hard to find whiskeys, you know,

22:57

off like Wellers and and it's going to lead us into another question.

23:00

There's always not enough time when we have it on the show. Number one

23:06

is the number one to kil them? Is it? Is it a good

23:10

idea? Number one is illegal to mark up a bourbon and sell it if

23:12

you bought it right. It is illegal for the private sale of alcohol from

23:18

consumer to consumer. So how is uh, you know, the revenuers for

23:23

lack of as Yeah, I hate sound like I'll good Jesse, But seriously,

23:29

how come uh you know, I guess ATF or whatever doesn't go after

23:33

or do they go after people that are selling on the internet. There are

23:36

a lot of people that get caught selling illegally. But there's so much of

23:41

it going on right now. And if you're if you're on all the social media platforms, and if you are interested in any sort of allocated whiskey,

23:48

all it takes is like one search and all of a sudden you'll start having

23:52

ads pop up left and right. Oh yeah, And I always warn people

23:56

right now. First of all, if it sounds too good be true.

24:00

If you can't walk into a store and five find your favorite bourbon, your

24:03

favorite blandans Well or Happy whatever, and find it for retail. Some guy

24:08

hitting you up online with an AD or a DM saying hey, I've got

24:12

this great whiskey for you. Just send me your credit card number, paypalate

24:17

to me, send it to me in bitcoin. You're just parting with your

24:19

money and you'll never see it. So I always advise people. And the

24:23

worst part now is if you know the people over at Liquor Barn, great

24:27

Kentucky only store, they are having a problem lately because there's a lot of

24:32

these hacks that are putting out Facebook pages saying their liquor Barn selling all these

24:37

allocated products are using their name, and so these these scams and that's what

24:41

they are. They're a scam. They're just trying to get your money. I always say, if you don't have a physical location that you can call

24:48

or walk into for that store, best to just save your money and avoid

24:52

it. Okay, the good old days weren't that long ago when I could

24:56

walk into any store and get ego rare for twenty five dollars. Now you

24:59

can't find it. Weller used to be easily accessible until the story started circulating

25:03

that hey, it's baby Pappy, it's Pappy barrels, it's Pappy mash Bill,

25:07

and now you can't find it. Any truth to any of that,

25:11

Well, yeah, you can't find it period. But as far as the

25:14

question, as far as baby Pappy at conception, at birth, there is

25:18

no such thing as a Pappy barrel. No barrel is labeled Pappy van Winkle.

25:23

All of them Weller or Pappy is labeled Weller Bourbon or Weller Brothers.

25:29

On the barrel head. They are all labeled the same way. Depending on

25:33

how they're bottled and how old they get is what they become. We were

25:37

talking earlier. It's the old story of the two orphans, the twins that

25:41

are separated at birth, one goes to a poor family, one goes to

25:45

a wealthy family. They grow up later. The one from the poor family

25:48

gets labeled well twelve. The one from the wealthy family gets labeled lot B.

25:52

Van Winkle. They're both the same thing genetically, DNA wise or identical.

25:56

It's just how much are you willing to spend to buy that model?

26:00

So there is truth that it's very similar to Pappy inside the glass, it's

26:03

identical out tell the glass. They're similar because they're they're still about the same

26:07

place. Wow, you know who started that story? Well, actually Julian

26:11

Van Winkle was one that said Bill Weller, Bill Weller, I'm sorry,

26:15

bis Weller. I want to pause on the bourbon for a second because I

26:22

want to say uh on the side, and I want to say thank you,

26:26

because you know you're the you have the bourbon show. But the way

26:30

I met you first is I'm the MC for the l MPD Foundation fundraiser every

26:36

year, and that's how I met you. I just got to say thank

26:38

you to everything you do for the l MPD Foundation because that foundation it's a

26:45

lifesaver in my eyes, it's a lifesaver for our officers and it's well worthy

26:51

of donations. But talk about LMPD fact, because you're not on You're on

26:55

the board, aren't you. Yes, you know. The Little Bit to Re Police Foundation, their whole mission is a support the men and women of

27:00

the LMPD and help offset some of the budget shortcomings that the city can't provide

27:06

for them, and mostly will help them with education programs, will help them

27:10

with emotional UH and financial support. If an officer gets hurt in a line

27:12

of duty, or one of their children that gets sick, or a spouse

27:17

gets ill, you know, obviously we're here to help them. In the years past, we've done things like FUNDU flack jackets for the canine unit,

27:22

flack jackets for the questioning unit. Right, one of our very generous and

27:26

honyms donators, donation supporters donate the funds to buy the high powered rifle flack

27:33

jackets for every officer, every single officer UH. The new wellness center that

27:38

the LPD has, that was a done by many people here in the community,

27:42

and it was it was donated by the Little Metro Police Foundation and ultimately

27:47

I think one of the programs that I'm personally very proud of is we also

27:49

provide marriage counseling support for every single officer and their spouse. Boy, is

27:53

that needed, because that's a tough get. Is a law enforcement is tough

27:56

on a marriage? You know, next week is Derby week. Everyone's on

28:00

duty, Everyone's they're told up front playing for being on duty. Right when

28:04

you see these guys out there, when you see them work in the corners,

28:07

when you see them walking around, and whether they be on on a bike, whether they be just walking the streets, whether it be on a

28:11

horse, take a moment and thank them because they're taking time away from their

28:15

families, they're working. They're out there to predict all of us, and

28:18

they're doing a great job doing it. So just like them, and I

28:22

promise you they will appreciate it absolutely. And we're talking all things bourbon.

28:26
