On episode #53 of JB's Bible & Bourbon Talk , JB and Fancy Rob discuss the importance of grace in our lives during the Advent season. They explore different ways to embrace and embody grace, including believing in God's grace to shape us, offering grace to those who betray us, trusting in God's grace to save us, and relying on God's grace to strengthen us.

Overall, the conversation emphasizes the transformative power of grace and the need to cultivate it in our lives. The conversation then takes a nerdy turn as they compare the Apprentice Batch to Darth Maul from Star Wars. They humorously discuss how the Apprentice Batch is like the Darth Maul of Bookers.

Pour yourself a glass and join us on a thrilling journey of bourbon tasting and storytelling. With our guest Super Nash, we explore the depths of Booker's Bourbon, each glass a testament to the craftsmanship and rich legacy of Booker Noe himself. Listen closely as we reminisce about Booker's early days, recognize his mentor Carl Beam and discover how their beloved bourbon encapsulates the essence of this historic journey.

Get ready for a sensory symphony as we examine each batch. From the surprising note of lime skittle to the classic richness of a Rickhouse scent, we share our unfiltered thoughts on each flavor and aroma, ensuring you feel every sip right along with us. But the fun doesn't stop there; we blind-taste two different batches of bourbon, Cave Hill and Storyteller, and wrestle with the delicious task of picking our favorite. This episode is a testament to the importance of blind tastings and the stripping away of biases, where the palate is the true judge.

As the episode progresses, we introduce a twist by tasting four different batches of Bookers, eagerly waiting for our wives to text us the batch information. Through the laughter and banter, we find ourselves reminiscing, discussing the rich history, and appreciating the craftsmanship behind each bottle. So whether you're a seasoned bourbon lover or a curious newbie, this episode is an invitation to experience the joy ride that is bourbon tasting with us. Don't miss out on this barrel of fun!

Join me, Supernash, and CT on a special Monday edition of the Scotchy Bourbon Boys podcast as we crack open our bottles of the elusive Charlie's Batch and the Apprentice Batch of Booker's bourbon to kick off a wild night of bourbon tasting. Share in our heartwarming conversation as we reminisce about the Booker's bottle that brought us together, celebrate Super Nash's upcoming wedding to Sherry, and pay tribute to Charlie Hutchinson – the man behind the signature wooden boxes of each Booker's Bourbon bottle.

Discover the first release of Booker's Bourbon 23 collection in honor of Charlie and learn about the unique flavors that make Booker's such a sought-after commodity. We also discuss the importance of sharing the experience of tasting bourbon with others and reflect on the special moments shared between friends while enjoying a bottle of Booker's Bourbon. From fishing trips together to exploring the origin story of Booker No and his apprenticeship under Carl Beam, we cover it all!

As we wrap up our bourbon-filled night, we dive into the story of the special bottle of Booker's bourbon that I will open on my wedding day and compare the unique flavor profiles of the C.E.O. 7-B-7 and the Apprentice batches. We end with a heartfelt tribute to good bourbon, good times, and good friends, brought to you through Little Stevo's song. So, grab your bottle of Booker's and join us for a night of laughs, memories, and some fine bourbon.

The world of whiskey wages on even despite the world seemingly being at a halt. In this week's chat, I sit down with one of the world's favorite whiskey men, Adam Harris. As he sits and sips some Booker's 25th Anniversary Bourbon in Houston, we ponder life, film, and what we can do to think about one's self in these times. We chat QT, Brad Pitt, Squirrels, and more.

It's not every day you get to hangout with a Doctor of Transportation, and certainly not one as cool as Willem Klumpenhouwer, PhD. He explains complex transit systems and principles in a way that's engaging and accessible. And we do it over a great beer from Good Mood Brewery.

From theoretical models and matrices, to exploring Brownian Motion, feedback loops, bicycle tracks, cities on the move, and improvisational theatre—we cover a lot of ground.

When you are talking about getting to know someone new you often hear it's what's on the inside that counts. If you want to take your magic into the festival and fairs market then it's what's on the outside that counts and by that we are talking about the weather.

The Marketing - how do you get into this market   

This year has been a tremendous journey. Getting to know the listeners and readers of the School Of Laughs podcast and blog has been a really, really cool thing. From connecting with folks in over 49 countries, to meeting many new comics through the site – Gavin and I have been overwhelmed with the positive response.

In this episode we take an inventory of the shows progress through its first half year. Specifically, we talk about:

• episodes that were downloaded the most
• episodes that were listened to the least
• episodes that triggered the most engagement and discussion
• blog articles that got shared the most
• which blogs caused a bit of a stir
• what makes for a good title
• the impact the site has had on a few comics
• how many listeners and readers we have
• the top 5 countries we are followed in (one real surprise!)

We also look ahead and reveal some plans for 2015. Including:

• a new way to engage with the School Of Laughs
• a few topics we will cover in upcoming episodes
• my plans for possible overseas travel
• the types of comics I would like to have on for interviews (you can help)

And lastly, piggybacking off of the last blog “What Is Holding You Back?”, we offer up a goal tracking worksheet that can help you organize and set over 30 goals for the upcoming year.
