Japanese Whisky with Chuck Johnson
Bitches & Bourbon
Originally recorded: 20230728 Length: 00:41:07 Should we have recorded two shows in one night? Probably not. But Ape and Reba double-booked themselves and we are nothing if not professionals. Did you keep a straight face on that last part? Neither did I when I typed it. At any rate, here’s your foray into Japanese whisky and shenanigans. You’re Welcome.

Bonus Episode: The Drunk Guys and Cormac McCarthy
Bitches & Bourbon
Originally recorded: 20231220 Length: 02:12:48 Bonus Episode: The Drunk Guys and Cormac McCarthy The Drunk Guys Book Club Podcast invited the Bitches over to join their discussion of Cormac McCarthy’s All the Pretty Horses. Not only did an amazing discussion happen, but the guys were nice enough to handle all the editing duties. So, Ape decided to take the gift and send it out to you just the way they sent it to her – with a quick hello added in so she could feel somewhat useful. So, I suppose you can call this a bonus episode. I love that y’all hang out here, but you should really go...

All the Smoke - Iron Smoke Bourbon & Smokehead Scotch
Bitches & Bourbon
Originally recorded: 20230712 Length: 39:47 Yes, yes that is the “Eye of the Tiger” playing in the opening. Did we change our theme music? No. But we did have a huge technical malfunction that caused Ape to cuss more than even she would publish on air. It took the most iconic franchise of all time (I said what I said, fight me) to get my mind right…but, it worked. We give you “Take 2.” P.S. Yes. I am aware I missed the opportunity to do the whole “One Bourbon, one Scotch, one Beer” thing. I wish I could tell you that it was on purpose because that would be legitimate; it’s...

Penelope Part II
Bitches & Bourbon
Originally recorded: 20230707 Length: 26:11 As the Bitches are sometimes wont to do, this conversation goes all over the place for a really long time. But, in true host fashion, Ape has cut it up, cleaned it out, and condensed a raucous evening into 26 minutes of moderately useful and entertaining-to-us content.
