We finally tackle the spirit that Alex has been dreading since the worst hangover of his life - Gin. But thanks to Jackson's creativity behind the bar, and his ability to infuse the botanical beverage with flavors like Oolong Tea, Pear, Peach, and more, we regard it as our most refreshing episode yet.
A perfect start to the summer, we're pairing it with a genre we forgot we knew so much about - Jazz Fusion. Pour yourself a some cool clear floral spirit and learn about the likes of Miles Davis's early explorations into rock music, the pure energy of the Brecker Brothers, and the jazz-pop sensibilities of Weather Report.

Skye and Alex convene in an undisclosed remote location in the Shenandoah Valley and go head to head on their ideas for riffs on classics. Sit back with some early disco from Watler Murphy and the Silver Convention, while we compare and rank Alex's "Dancing Queens Cocktail, Skye's "Final Ward" and more.
Have fun out there.
We dove into the music of Old Blue Eyes, and one of his most lush, introspective, and velvety records, 1959's "No One Cares," and did a little old-school cocktail lottery. Learn why some of the old drinks your grandpa and Frankie used to sip on by the fire have gone out of fashion, why some should come back, and why some should remain in obscurity.
Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
We're back to dive into one of the seminal entries in the Psychedelic Rock canon - Are You Experienced? by Jimi Hendrix.
And what better mixer to is there match with these far out sounds than the dubiously hallucinogenic spirit, Absinthe.
Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
We took refuge from a summer thunder shower and listened to Prince's most successful, eclectic album, 1984's Purple Rain. Skye works his magic with some equally energetic summer concoctions, featuring effervescent and colorful riffs on the Negroni, the Cosmo, and more.
Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
Appropriately recorded on Cinqo de Mayo, we dive into our favorite Desert Rock album, 2007's Era Vulgaris by Queens of the Stone Age. Skye works his magic with Tequila to deliver some unique riffs on the Paloma and the Old Fashioned, and manages to curate a tasty menu without resorting to a Margarita.
This is a heavy record with some even heavier drinks. Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
Be prepared for an onslaught of unsolicited Michael McDonald impression as the Club takes on the Doobie Bros' classic, 'Minute by Minute' from 1978. With the record that years later would later become known as the cornerstone album of Yacht Rock, we riff on these smooth sounds and complex arrangements with some equally smooth, yet complex Daiquiris.
Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
After a long hiatus, we're relaunching with a brand new "Record Club" concept. Instead of a genre playlist and a base-spirit, we're doing a classic album from front-to-back, without stops or repeats, and pairing the experience with a set of spirits and flavors to match.
We're launching the concept with one of the most immersive vinyl experiences of all-time, The Beatles' Abbey Road.
After re-locating the studio from New York to Washington, DC, Alex is joined by cocktail aficionado Skye Frontier, and former guest-of -the-pod turned co-host Ian Burke.
We'd love to hear your feedback on this new format. Enjoy the spirits, enjoy the sounds, and have fun out there.
We're breaking down the scintillating and sparkly classic, the French 75, and using it as an inspiration to play with some flavors and make our own variations. Inspired by the smooth music of Bertie Higgins.
From the Imbibe the Vibe Vault, the long-overdue release of our Live Show.
