00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:02,300
Hey everybody.
Welcome into the film and
2
00:00:02,300 --> 00:00:06,100
whiskey podcast.
I'm Bob book, I'm Brad G.
3
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:09,200
And today we're coming at you
with another special bonus.
4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:15,300
Episode bonus episode where
resurrecting a bonus episode
5
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:17,500
format that we have not done in
a while Brad.
6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,600
Yeah, it's our top 5 series but
a little bit different.
7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,700
Take on the top 5 series.
Bob, we're putting a Twist on
8
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:26,500
it.
Yeah, you know, it's the time of
9
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:29,200
year where everyone's getting
into their fantasy football
10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,100
draft.
Pretty soon.
11
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:33,900
It's going to be the filmin.
Whiskey fantasy basketball draft
12
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:35,800
again.
And so, we kind of figured,
13
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,800
let's find a way to work a draft
theme into our top five.
14
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And I really like the the format
that you came up with Brad, why
15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,300
don't you explain it to the
listeners?
16
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:49,300
Yeah, so, I was honestly
thinking about just doing a
17
00:00:49,300 --> 00:00:52,600
bonus episode talking about
like, if we could make a movie,
18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,200
what kind of movie would we
make?
19
00:00:54,700 --> 00:00:58,100
And that time that kind of took
me down the thought train of
20
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:01,300
like, well, I think I'd want to
make like a Arc action thriller
21
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:05,000
type a type of movie and I
started to wonder, like, well,
22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,200
who would I want to make that
movie?
23
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,000
Because, you know, obviously I
would be directing it and I
24
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,600
would have it be my breakout
film and I'd win an oscar.
25
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,400
But if I wasn't able to direct
it, who would I have directed
26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,500
and who would write it?
And who would, you know, work on
27
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:24,100
the cinematography in the music
and who'd be the lead actor and
28
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:27,000
I was like, oh my gosh, we have
a bonus episode.
29
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,900
Well, and the way that it worked
out is Oh, and the way that it
30
00:01:30,908 --> 00:01:34,500
worked out is we're going to
give you a top five as in the
31
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:39,500
top five rolls.
I don't know, I'll try to bring
32
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:40,200
me.
Try to break it down.
33
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,200
Yeah, break it down, for me box.
I'm having a hard time here.
34
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Yeah.
So what we're going to do today
35
00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:49,700
is we're basically going to have
a draft of five categories and
36
00:01:49,700 --> 00:01:53,000
it's essentially like, what
would your top five?
37
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:56,300
I don't know.
Dream Team to work on a movie of
38
00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:58,700
your choosing be.
We're assuming that Brad and I
39
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:01,300
are high-powered.
Word Hollywood producers that we
40
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:04,400
have our pick of the litter, of
the best of the best of
41
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,900
directing, and writing, and
cinematography, and acting, and
42
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:12,200
scoring the movie.
And we can pick one person to
43
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,200
fit each role.
And the other person cannot pick
44
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,600
that person anymore.
And so, it's kind of a draft.
45
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,600
We're going to be allowed to go
in any order so you can take
46
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,900
your director first.
I could take a cinematographer
47
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:26,100
first, you know, we can
strategically try to anticipate
48
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:28,500
where the other person's going
and pick somebody to kind of
49
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:32,000
block them from.
Forming a better movie than my
50
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,900
studio is forming.
Hmm.
51
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:36,700
Whatwhat's, your studio called
Bob, I was trying to think of a
52
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:38,500
clever name over here.
I got nothing man.
53
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:42,200
I think it's kind of along the
lines of like a 24.
54
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:45,900
Uh-huh, I'm going to go for G10.
Oh nice.
55
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:48,900
I'm gonna go with viscosity
pictures, whoo-hoo.
56
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:53,700
Let's go, man.
So you have it, this is what
57
00:02:53,700 --> 00:02:55,600
we're going to do today.
I'm really excited for it.
58
00:02:55,608 --> 00:02:58,700
We've never done anything in a
draft format before.
59
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,500
I'm not Eric Lee known for being
a great Fantasy Football, Draft
60
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:04,100
Ur.
So this might end up going
61
00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:07,700
really badly for me, we will see
you make up for it in fantasy
62
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:09,900
basketball.
That I sure do, man, I
63
00:03:09,900 --> 00:03:11,800
researched the hell out of that
document.
64
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,100
So you do a couple more ground
rules we can only pick people
65
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:18,600
who are alive and currently
working.
66
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:21,100
So, no one in that is announced,
you know, a retirement for
67
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:25,500
making movies and because of
that, it has to be a movie that
68
00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:30,100
could plausibly get made.
So I'm pretty pumped while Doing
69
00:03:30,100 --> 00:03:31,200
it.
We're going to sip on two
70
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,700
Whiskey's, the first of, which
is from Catoctin Creek
71
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:37,700
distillers in Virginia.
It's their Ragnarok Rye, which
72
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,700
it's just one of the coolest
looking bottles.
73
00:03:40,700 --> 00:03:44,000
I think I've ever seen Brad.
Yeah, hands down.
74
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,200
It is just a wildly awesome
bottle.
75
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,400
I, it came in the mail and I
opened it.
76
00:03:51,700 --> 00:03:55,200
And I literally just like
dropped an expletive like, oh my
77
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,900
gosh, like, this is one of the
coolest bottles I've ever seen.
78
00:03:59,300 --> 00:04:02,000
And then the Second one, we're
going to be revisiting still
79
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,800
Austin which is one of our
favorite Brands that's come out
80
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,500
in the last couple years.
Obviously out of Texas.
81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000
The first time we had them was
way back when we first had our
82
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,400
friend Scott sour on the show to
break down.
83
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,600
I think the mint julep that
might have been the episode that
84
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,800
we did this with and it was a,
it was a whiskey that I think
85
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,899
was like, 94.
Ich proof may have been up to
86
00:04:21,899 --> 00:04:24,300
100, but it was still at like,
cocktail proof.
87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,200
And it was one of those where
we're like, hey if you really
88
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,900
want to elevate, whatever
cocktail you're making use, Is
89
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:33,300
whiskey, but also you're not
going to want to use the whiskey
90
00:04:33,300 --> 00:04:35,300
because it drinks.
So beautifully neat.
91
00:04:35,700 --> 00:04:39,400
They've sent us their Cask
strength expression and I am
92
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,500
really excited to try this one.
You're not going to want to keep
93
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:44,900
the whiskey in there, Bob,
because it drinks.
94
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:46,800
Good neat.
Is that what I said?
95
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,500
Yep, I think you want to drop
the mixer.
96
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:54,300
Actually know what I was saying
was we don't want to use it for
97
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:59,000
cocktails because because it
drinks so good on its own like
98
00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,600
why?
Yes.
99
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:00,500
Yes.
You know I'm saying?
100
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:07,000
Yeah I do.
Well Bob do you want to draft
101
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,500
this like like a snake draft
where the first person picks
102
00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:13,800
first and then the next person
gets the next two picks.
103
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:15,500
Do you just want to go back and
forth?
104
00:05:15,500 --> 00:05:19,400
How do you want to roll this?
Let's go back and forth and I'll
105
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,700
let you go first.
That's how much I care about you
106
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,100
and how much confidence I have
in my own abilities.
107
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,500
I was thinking that we could
flip the coin and Destiny but if
108
00:05:28,500 --> 00:05:30,600
you want to let me go first.
It's up to you man.
109
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,500
Oh man it was your idea I am a
man of honor and I respect the
110
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:37,100
fact that you put this whole
thing together so you go first.
111
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,400
Alright so once again our five
categories are director actor or
112
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:47,100
actress cinematographer composer
and writer.
113
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:49,000
So Brad where do you want to
start?
114
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,700
I am going to with the first
pick in the film and whiskey
115
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:58,000
draft of 2022.
I am going to pick Roger deakins
116
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,700
cinematography Bastard.
All right, I knew out of my
117
00:06:04,700 --> 00:06:06,800
whole list.
I was like this is the person
118
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:12,400
that Bob will take first, man.
All right, Deacon's is off the
119
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,200
board that was like, that was
Ace in the Hole man.
120
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,800
He makes everything better.
I was going to say, I think
121
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:24,500
primarily for like sicarios
influence, but also, like, I
122
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:29,600
don't know everything.
He makes 1917 Fargo Skyfall.
123
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,700
Make the dude is just a true
living legend in the world of
124
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,800
cinematography.
Absolutely, I guess I kind of
125
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,300
mentioned it in my mind, I'm
building like a dark action
126
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:43,400
thriller, what kind of movie do
you feel like you're building
127
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,600
for Bob?
I honestly have no idea.
128
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,300
I think that I would, I would
get to crushed when, like, if I
129
00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:52,200
went into it thinking.
Oh, I'm gonna do, you know, like
130
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,300
a, like a family drama, like
marriage storm cam?
131
00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:57,900
Yeah, whatever.
And then, those people started
132
00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:01,000
getting picked off by you.
I would get more pissed off, so
133
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,900
I think I'm just going to go
with God.
134
00:07:03,500 --> 00:07:07,700
I would like, Nora Ephron to
write my dark action thriller.
135
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:11,300
So I think I'm gonna just go
with like best available person
136
00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:13,500
and at the end be like, you know
what, they're all so talented,
137
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:15,600
they can think of something to
make a movie about whom?
138
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:18,900
All right, well, your first pick
is up, Bob where are you going?
139
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:23,100
I'm going to start with the
writer and I'm going to take
140
00:07:23,100 --> 00:07:26,100
someone who was like eighth or
ninth down my list.
141
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,600
But I think again, I'm going to
I'm just going for like most
142
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Talented person.
And I'm taking a writer who's
143
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,600
also a director, but I would
rather have them writing than I
144
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,300
would directing for this
exercise.
145
00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:43,200
And that is Paul Thomas Anderson
who he was on my list, too.
146
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,500
Man, I'm going to take him
because if you look at the
147
00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:48,600
screenplays for his movies, I
mean from Boogie Nights 2, There
148
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,200
Will Be Blood to licorice pizza
last year, he can work in almost
149
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:57,900
any genre and I think he's so
good at finding little moments
150
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:02,300
for each character to Their
inner desires in ways that don't
151
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:05,200
come across as forced that don't
come across as hammy.
152
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,500
I'm really excited to see what
Paul Thomas Anderson's going to
153
00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:10,200
concoct here, but that's my
first pick.
154
00:08:10,900 --> 00:08:13,600
Yeah, I think that's a really
great first pick Bob.
155
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,700
I know that you've been raving
over licorice pizza for a while
156
00:08:17,700 --> 00:08:19,700
now.
So love that movie.
157
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,200
That's a good one man.
With the second pick, I think.
158
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:28,900
Well, my pick for writer is safe
now, so I can I can hold back on
159
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:31,700
that.
I think I'm going to go with
160
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:37,700
director and mmm.
I'm I'm really struggling
161
00:08:37,700 --> 00:08:40,400
between the two.
I think I'm gonna go with David
162
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,200
Fincher.
Mmm, nice.
163
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,700
I just, I still haven't seen the
Zodiac, but from what I know
164
00:08:46,700 --> 00:08:50,800
about it that fits with, what I
think I'm going for the dude who
165
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,100
made Fight Club, and seven, and
The Social Network.
166
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,800
I Just feel like you pair him up
with deacons and they're just
167
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,800
going to make some phenomenal
work.
168
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:03,200
So I yeah.
I think that I think that
169
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:09,700
Fincher's my guy, I really like
the way he draws out you know
170
00:09:09,700 --> 00:09:13,100
really like deep inner
narratives that are going on in
171
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:17,700
his characters lives and yet
still pushes the movie forward
172
00:09:17,700 --> 00:09:20,400
in a very kinetic way.
And I think that that would be a
173
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,000
really really good pairing with
deacons have they worked
174
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
together on a movie Before
deacons and Fincher.
175
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,500
I don't believe they have
deacons his stuck, too.
176
00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:30,600
I mean, he's worked all over the
place with a ton of different
177
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,600
directors, but I don't believe
he's worked with Fincher.
178
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,100
Well.
Now he will, we need to remedy
179
00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:36,800
that.
Yeah.
180
00:09:38,700 --> 00:09:40,600
All right.
Time for our our time for my
181
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,000
second pick, and then we'll go
ahead and break for our first
182
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,500
whiskey.
I'm going to stick with kind of
183
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,100
like the below-the-line people
here.
184
00:09:47,100 --> 00:09:50,400
I'm gonna go with composure and
I'm gonna go with Nicholas
185
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,300
brittle who did the score for.
If Beale Street could talk a
186
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:57,700
score that I've talked about a
lot on this podcast, actually.
187
00:09:57,700 --> 00:10:02,600
Since we watched that movie,
it's been used a lot lately in
188
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,000
like Instagram, reels and
Tick-Tock.
189
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,500
And it's really funny because
when, you know, like what movie
190
00:10:07,500 --> 00:10:09,400
it's from, it's like, wow, that
really doesn't go with your
191
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,000
stupid.
Tick-Tock of you baking, a loaf
192
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:16,300
of bread, but it's such a
beautiful heart wrenching score,
193
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,000
and I just love the way bertel
uses the piano uses the strings.
194
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,900
I really think we could get
something really, really cool
195
00:10:22,900 --> 00:10:26,200
out of the combination of a PTA.
Script and a Nicholas Patel
196
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,300
score.
Yeah, that's awesome.
197
00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:31,300
Dude, I love it, man.
Let's, let's get into this
198
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:34,700
Ragnarok.
I'm really excited for for this
199
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:35,800
whiskey.
Yeah.
200
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,700
So again, this is from Catoctin
Creek.
201
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,800
Now we had one of their rise on
the show, a little over a year
202
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,500
ago now, Brad and we were not
big fans of it.
203
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:48,700
And the reason behind that is
that it has the craft whiskey
204
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:52,500
notes all over it, on the nose.
And I know that, like a lot of
205
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:58,600
people describe the Aft whiskey
Funk as being kind of like a wet
206
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,000
cardboard.
Like, there's just this note
207
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,700
that hangs around in young craft
whiskey and it's hard to explain
208
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:09,900
but it's always on Catoctin
Creek products, and it
209
00:11:09,900 --> 00:11:12,200
specifically, the one we had
last year, we did not really
210
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,300
like it all.
And so, we got this one in the
211
00:11:14,300 --> 00:11:18,800
mail, and it's a collaboration
with the metal band guar and it
212
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:25,200
is covered in, you know, images
of them looking Like what?
213
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,700
I don't know what you call it,
like, the Banshees, yes, Nordic
214
00:11:28,700 --> 00:11:31,100
Nordic demonic forces.
There it is.
215
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:35,700
It has this awesome metallic
stopper on the top of it, you
216
00:11:35,700 --> 00:11:37,700
know, of course, they wrote some
really cool copy.
217
00:11:37,700 --> 00:11:40,400
You can read all about it on
their website for our purposes.
218
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,400
What we want to know is this it
is a 94, proof Rye aged in new
219
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,400
White Oak, and then in Sugar,
Maple and cherry wood.
220
00:11:49,300 --> 00:11:50,800
And is it?
I said, 94 proof.
221
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,400
It's 92.
Proof.
222
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,900
It is not age stated.
So No idea how old it actually
223
00:11:55,900 --> 00:11:58,500
is, but I'm assuming older than
three years old Brad.
224
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,100
Let's give it a nose in a taste.
I know you've tried it already.
225
00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:03,500
I'm actually diving in live on
air.
226
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,100
So why don't you give us your
notes?
227
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,600
Yeah, I think that this one has
that same Funk.
228
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,600
Bob, it's got it.
Like the minute.
229
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,500
I put it up to my nose.
I was like, oh yeah, that's
230
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:18,800
Catoctin Creek.
Yeah it's kind of like a strong.
231
00:12:19,300 --> 00:12:21,800
There's almost a bit of a strong
Cherry.
232
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,000
Dark fruit.
Kind of Nokia on for me.
233
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,500
Yeah.
And a little bit of vanilla
234
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:30,500
underneath.
I don't know, man, that the nose
235
00:12:30,500 --> 00:12:33,200
feels a little bit smoother than
last time, but there's still
236
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,700
some of that same stuff going
on.
237
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,400
Yeah, it's really hard to
describe it, but it smells
238
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,300
familiar and I don't know how to
explain that.
239
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,500
I know that I'm going to be bad
Whiskey's.
240
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:44,200
We've had before, I have talked
about this, this cleaning
241
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,500
product called tarnex, and it
kind of has a little bit of that
242
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:49,100
on it.
It has a little bit of like,
243
00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:51,900
cardboard to it, but then it
also smells a lot, like
244
00:12:51,900 --> 00:12:55,800
butterscotch.
And it's like, You could combine
245
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:59,200
functions like smeared
butterscotch topping on wet
246
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,700
cardboard, and that doesn't
sound appealing and I'm not sure
247
00:13:02,700 --> 00:13:04,900
it is appealing, but it's the
closest I can get to being
248
00:13:04,900 --> 00:13:09,000
accurate here, it does smell
like a freshly cut red.
249
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,000
Apple a little bit to me
underneath all that.
250
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,100
And you're right, there's some
vanilla here as well.
251
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,000
It all mingles together to make
a really unique nose.
252
00:13:17,300 --> 00:13:19,700
I just don't know where this is
going from here.
253
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,400
Yeah, it's a really interesting
knows that's about the best way
254
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:24,400
to put it.
Let's give it a sip though.
255
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:30,600
Bob Mm-hmm.
Oh, that's really nice.
256
00:13:31,700 --> 00:13:33,500
Yeah, it definitely still taste
a little bit young.
257
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,200
It's not a super well-rounded
whiskey.
258
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,600
Like, it's got some pepper to
it.
259
00:13:37,608 --> 00:13:40,400
It's got some heat and, like,
some bite to it, really?
260
00:13:40,700 --> 00:13:42,500
Hmm.
I wouldn't say that it covers
261
00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:46,300
the tongue a lot either, like
it's just 92.
262
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:48,300
Both in.
Yeah, 92 proof is maybe not
263
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:49,800
where this should be.
I think it should be up in like
264
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,900
the 102 104 proof.
However, this is like a
265
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:57,000
significant step up from that
last Catoctin Creek, we had.
266
00:13:57,300 --> 00:14:00,600
Yeah, yeah.
The little bit of a funk comes
267
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:05,300
through, but I don't know how to
describe it other than to say,
268
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:09,900
the original Catoctin creatures.
Had a lot of rough edges that
269
00:14:09,900 --> 00:14:13,000
are not present on this one.
I don't know if they had aged it
270
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,200
a little bit longer, but it
definitely comes across as a
271
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:22,300
more complete experience.
And there's just more flavor
272
00:14:22,300 --> 00:14:26,600
going on and the the funk that
was there before is present, but
273
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,700
not overpowering.
And I actually kind of like it
274
00:14:29,700 --> 00:14:32,100
in this expression of Contacting
Creek.
275
00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:36,000
Yeah, for me I think the Finish
is where this really shines
276
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,000
because you swallow it.
And it's like, okay, that was a
277
00:14:38,008 --> 00:14:42,200
nice young rye and then a layer
kind of came back up on my
278
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,800
palate after I let it sit for a
second and that it tasted like I
279
00:14:45,808 --> 00:14:50,300
had drank an older Rye, like it
had a nice Dusty quality to it.
280
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:52,800
There was some nice fruit notes
that came out on the end.
281
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,500
There is interesting like the
tasting experience was like,
282
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:58,500
okay young Rye probably needs
another two years to be like
283
00:14:58,500 --> 00:15:03,300
superb and then afterwards It
was like, here's what this could
284
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:04,500
be.
I don't know if that makes
285
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:06,600
sense, but it was like, look, it
was like a glimpse into the
286
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,300
future of this Rye, if they kept
it in the barrel for like
287
00:15:09,300 --> 00:15:10,500
another three years.
Maybe.
288
00:15:11,300 --> 00:15:13,800
Yeah.
And I agree with you.
289
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,100
I think you add 10 proof points
to this.
290
00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:19,600
Jump it up just above 100 and
you're looking at a whiskey,
291
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,300
that really has a lot of legs to
it that.
292
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,200
Yeah, but overall, man, this is
a really, really pleasant
293
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,100
experience.
I like it a lot.
294
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,900
Yeah, I think if we were scoring
this out of 50 again, not really
295
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:32,200
Factory.
In the price right now.
296
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,300
But just for the sake of
argument, I'd probably put this
297
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:38,900
Somewhere In Like A don't know,
32 to 35 range but you're right
298
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:44,400
if it was a little bit heavier
on the alcohol content and just
299
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,400
a little bit longer age, I think
this could be like a 40 or
300
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,200
above.
It's really on the right track.
301
00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:52,700
Yeah, 100%.
I think I'd be a little above
302
00:15:52,700 --> 00:15:58,800
you, 34 to 37 area but yeah,
this is a improvement over the
303
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,400
first offering and Again, we've
talked a lot of times about cool
304
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,300
packaging with subpar interior
contents.
305
00:16:07,700 --> 00:16:11,200
This is not that this is one of
the coolest bottles I have ever
306
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,000
seen in my life, paired with a
really solid whiskey inside.
307
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,400
So, if you're able to get your
hands on some Ragnarok, I think
308
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,400
I'd suggested Bob.
Yeah, me too man.
309
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:24,200
And I would also suggest diving
back into this draft because
310
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,500
it's your turn to pick your
third member of your dream team.
311
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,200
Yeah.
So I've got myself a director.
312
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:38,100
And a cinematographer, I think.
Well, I'll just go into the, I'm
313
00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:40,200
just going to keep this is draft
strategy.
314
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,500
Bob, I'm going to keep going
into places.
315
00:16:42,500 --> 00:16:46,300
You haven't been and there's
only one actor that I can
316
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,900
choose.
I think you might be able to
317
00:16:48,900 --> 00:16:52,900
pick him for me, Bob, but we're
talking Tom Cruise, baby.
318
00:16:54,300 --> 00:16:59,700
I think just I am just utterly
convinced that Tom Cruise is one
319
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:04,599
of our greatest living Get
Treasures of an actor and he
320
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:08,700
deserves an Oscar and I want him
to get it in this movie because
321
00:17:08,700 --> 00:17:11,900
I think he is has so much more
depth to his acting.
322
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:15,700
The people give them credit for.
And this is it, man, this is
323
00:17:15,700 --> 00:17:20,599
this is the time, maybe it's
maybe it's a dark Thriller that
324
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:25,400
is about him as an aging, you
know, policeman or a detective
325
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:26,900
or something.
I don't know.
326
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:30,000
I'm just I'm here for it.
And I think that Tom Cruise
327
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,800
deserves a really Ali serious
role for him to win an Oscar.
328
00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:37,500
I love it, man.
All right, I think it's time for
329
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:42,800
me to choose a director and I'm
down to three people on my list
330
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,000
because I keep thinking of this
Nicholas brutal score and the
331
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,500
sort of aching you know if Beale
Street could talk themes here,
332
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,100
Barry Jenkins is still on my
list.
333
00:17:52,100 --> 00:17:53,900
I could snatch him up right now.
I think he would make a
334
00:17:53,908 --> 00:17:56,900
beautiful movie with Paul,
Thomas Anderson writing.
335
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,100
I've got Spielberg on here
because he Spielberg and he's
336
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:02,800
also no.
Lutely capable of this kind of
337
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,700
movie.
I mean, he has a film coming out
338
00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:07,600
this fall called The fabled
Men's, which is basically an
339
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,500
autobiography of his own life.
He's done this kind of stuff
340
00:18:10,500 --> 00:18:16,100
before, he knows how to do the
traumatized kid or shattered
341
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:17,700
relationship.
Very, very well.
342
00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:21,700
Now, not-not-not Spielberg, the
other person that I'm going back
343
00:18:21,700 --> 00:18:23,700
and forth with is Alfonso
cuaron.
344
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,200
I think that he's super
ambitious, but he also really
345
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,100
understands Children of Men is
such a beautiful movie.
346
00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:35,600
But could I see cuarón directing
a PTA script?
347
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,500
I think is the thing that's like
throwing me off here.
348
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:45,800
I think I'm gonna go Spielberg,
although I want to go Jenkins,
349
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,200
but I'm gonna go Spielberg as my
director because you just, you
350
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,800
can't go wrong man.
Dude, Paul Thomas Anderson, and
351
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:58,700
Spielberg working together on a
movie would just be absolutely
352
00:18:58,700 --> 00:19:00,300
epic.
All right, man.
353
00:19:00,700 --> 00:19:02,200
Number four, You what are you
gonna do?
354
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:07,200
Number four for me, I think I'm
going to go into the composer
355
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:14,400
realm and I'm going to pick
Johan Johansen of arrival, Fame,
356
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:20,600
arrival sicario.
I think that he just has a real
357
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,800
talent for honestly.
It's what you were saying about.
358
00:19:25,300 --> 00:19:28,400
Nicholas Patel was got me in
this direction was.
359
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:35,100
Yeah, there's something about a
mournful full backdrop for a for
360
00:19:35,100 --> 00:19:39,300
any movie, you know, drama that
you you film, that just sets the
361
00:19:39,300 --> 00:19:41,800
stage for where you want to go
emotionally.
362
00:19:42,100 --> 00:19:44,900
And I think that you'll Hanson
would do a really beautiful job
363
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:47,000
at that, for the movie.
I'm envisioning.
364
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:51,800
I'm going to hold off on my
actor, because I have a list of
365
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,400
five people right now, and I'm
like, this is too many people
366
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,400
can't claim them all.
So, I'm gonna go cinematographer
367
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,900
and I'm realizing as I go
through these lists, that what
368
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:04,600
I'm doing is I'm basically
Picking directors through their
369
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,000
collaborators.
So like I picked brutal because
370
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,500
he works with Jenkins.
And I picked PTA because he
371
00:20:09,508 --> 00:20:14,500
works with PTA and I'm gonna
pick Rodrigo Prieto as my
372
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:16,400
cinematographer.
We've talked about him a couple
373
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,600
times on this show.
He did the cinematography for
374
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,900
silence, which we just did a few
weeks ago, he's been working
375
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:25,100
more and more with Scorsese and
just doing these beautiful
376
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:27,800
movies.
He can also go really Hollywood
377
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,100
with his, with his compositions,
like he did the movie Argo.
378
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:34,400
Go, which looked really great.
But it was like your standard,
379
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:35,800
you know, kind of political
thriller.
380
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,000
He also did the cinematography
for Brokeback Mountain, which is
381
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,700
one of the most, beautiful
looking movies.
382
00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:42,100
I think we've ever done on this
show.
383
00:20:42,100 --> 00:20:45,700
So yeah, I'm gonna go create so
he's like, he kind of flies
384
00:20:45,700 --> 00:20:46,900
under the radar.
A little bit.
385
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000
I was thinking about, you know,
like a loop pesky who did
386
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,500
Birdman and the Revenant, but I
don't know that I want a camera
387
00:20:53,500 --> 00:20:57,400
3 inches from my actors faces
throughout the whole movie, so
388
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,800
I'm gonna which actor.
Yeah exactly.
389
00:20:59,900 --> 00:21:02,600
So I'm going to take Prieto.
Get ya, dude.
390
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,300
What do you want to jump into
this still Austin or do you want
391
00:21:05,300 --> 00:21:08,000
to make our final picks?
Let's let's play out the
392
00:21:08,008 --> 00:21:11,200
suspense because I think we both
still have to pick our acting
393
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,800
performances, right?
No, I chose Tom Cruise.
394
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,500
Oh, that's right.
You did choose Tommy C.
395
00:21:15,500 --> 00:21:18,300
So who's left for you?
What's your my writer?
396
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,600
Your writer and I have an actor.
Yeah, let's break and let's try
397
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,000
this still Austin.
What do you say?
398
00:21:23,300 --> 00:21:24,700
All right yeah, let's get to it
man.
399
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,700
Alright so we are trying still
Austin, Cask strength bourbon
400
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:31,600
whiskey this clocks in at 118.
Proof.
401
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,800
It is aged for at least two
years.
402
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,600
This was something we noticed
with the original still Austin
403
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,800
as well.
I think that one was called the
404
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,200
musician.
It says two years right on the
405
00:21:40,208 --> 00:21:43,400
bottle and we kept looking at
the bottle going like, how is
406
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,700
this?
Only two years old?
407
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,900
Mmm, as we saw two years and we
were like gosh are we gonna have
408
00:21:47,900 --> 00:21:51,300
to like find nice things to say
about the two year old whisky?
409
00:21:51,300 --> 00:21:54,200
And it did not drink like a two
year old whisky at all.
410
00:21:54,900 --> 00:22:01,100
This is a 70% non-GMO, corn, 25%
rye and 5% malted barley.
411
00:22:01,300 --> 00:22:06,400
Ash Bill, where you had they
specified non-GMO, man, they
412
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,400
specified everything 25% elbon
Rye.
413
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,200
I don't even know what that
means. 5% Wildfire malted
414
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,700
barley.
So why didn't you say so before?
415
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,000
Well, that's probably why the
MSRP on this is sixty five
416
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,400
dollars for a bottle.
So I think I will factor that in
417
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,800
a little bit as we get into our
tasting and scoring here.
418
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,500
Brad, I'm pouring it out right
now.
419
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:28,900
Why don't you tell me what you
think of it?
420
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:35,500
Yeah, I honestly The nose is a
little bit lacking, like there's
421
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:38,600
some nice stuff going on, but
I'm not getting enough.
422
00:22:38,900 --> 00:22:41,600
Nice stuff.
There's a little bit of orange
423
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,200
there, some caramel and vanilla
come across.
424
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,100
It's got your classic bourbon
notes, but I'm not getting a lot
425
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:50,900
of complexity.
I think that's the issue I'm
426
00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:52,200
having right now.
I don't know.
427
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,500
Bob, where are you at with the,
with the nose so far?
428
00:22:55,500 --> 00:22:57,300
I'm in a really different spot
than you Brad.
429
00:22:57,300 --> 00:22:59,700
And I think it's, because if
there's a word I could use to
430
00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:04,200
describe this, it's just dark.
Like, it smells like you
431
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,200
squirted, like, pancake syrup
into a glass.
432
00:23:08,300 --> 00:23:12,000
It's really, really dark.
It's really decadent lots of
433
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000
maple.
Lots of brown sugar, almost
434
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,500
molasses like, just straight
molasses on this.
435
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:19,400
I was going to say, molasses is
the right word.
436
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,400
It doesn't quite have the for
me.
437
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,700
It doesn't quite have.
The decadence of like, a sweet
438
00:23:24,700 --> 00:23:29,000
maple syrup, but yeah, molasses
really yeah, that's it.
439
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,000
Ma'am.
I think as it kind of airs out
440
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,300
Little bit in my glass here.
It's starting to open up a
441
00:23:33,308 --> 00:23:35,100
little bit.
Those dark dark notes are
442
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:37,100
dissipating, and it becomes a
lot more Okie.
443
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:39,700
A little bit more Dusty as well,
which is not something.
444
00:23:39,700 --> 00:23:42,700
I was expecting on a two year
old whisky again, like it.
445
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:45,100
When you factor in the, this is
only two years old.
446
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,000
There's quite a bit of
complexity.
447
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,900
I think Brad because it doesn't
smell like a young whiskey.
448
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:53,900
No, it really doesn't that there
are some really nice things
449
00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:56,800
going on here.
I think if I'm being honest Bob,
450
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,300
I might have just filled my
glass a little too full.
451
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,200
I'm used to having These tiny
little samples to pour out of in
452
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,700
this time I have a whole 750 ml
so might not have been enough
453
00:24:07,700 --> 00:24:11,200
room when I get into the taste
here.
454
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,900
I think the thing that stands
out to me is like right on the
455
00:24:13,900 --> 00:24:16,900
back end of the palate.
It gets kind of like herbal and
456
00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:20,400
vegetable which I wasn't
expecting it has that sort of
457
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,100
like craft Rye thing we get
sometimes like on the bell for
458
00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:26,500
Rye.
I keep making this this
459
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:29,500
comparison to like me pulling
weeds out in the yard and like
460
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,300
that weird chlorophyll.
Smell you get from pulling
461
00:24:32,300 --> 00:24:35,700
certain weeds.
It's like it's like that on my
462
00:24:35,700 --> 00:24:39,000
palette and that wasn't present
at all on the nose.
463
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,200
So I'm a little bit surprised at
the fact that this doesn't have
464
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,100
the really like brown sugar
maple heavy taste, that the
465
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:51,000
smell would have suggested.
Yeah, it has a little bit of
466
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,700
molasses Upfront for me, but I
would agree it almost turns into
467
00:24:55,700 --> 00:25:03,200
a baking spice vegetal Just
really fascinating mixture of of
468
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:07,200
experiences.
Like this isn't a very typical
469
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,700
bourbon there, there's a little
bit of vanilla there for me, but
470
00:25:10,700 --> 00:25:14,800
it's not overpowering.
When I get in the finish, it
471
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,100
turns a little okey on me, but
not bitter.
472
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:22,000
Some continuing orange notes
that I got from the, from the
473
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,200
start, this is a really
interesting whiskey Bob.
474
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,800
Now again, it's 118 proof.
I don't think that it Really
475
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,400
suggest that on the palate.
Like it's definitely a higher
476
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,000
proof whiskey but it doesn't hit
you the way you would expect 118
477
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,400
to hit you and I'll give it that
much as for that note that I
478
00:25:38,408 --> 00:25:42,200
don't particularly like that
sort of like earthy we d-type
479
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,800
note, I don't know if aging this
longer would kind of mellow that
480
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,100
out a little bit, but I will say
that at 2 years old.
481
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,100
I think the most apparent thing
about it is like the nose is
482
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:54,800
there.
The Taste is not quite there
483
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,900
yet.
If this was four years old, I
484
00:25:56,908 --> 00:25:58,400
think it'd be a lot more
well-rounded.
485
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:01,000
It.
Yeah, I think that a little bit
486
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,300
more age here.
Would definitely make it worth
487
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:07,200
the ticket price, man.
I tried this a few week or so
488
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,200
ago and I really enjoyed it but
this time through there's
489
00:26:10,300 --> 00:26:13,000
there's a few more gaps in it
than I thought there would be
490
00:26:13,500 --> 00:26:15,500
and it might be the barley
that's in here as well.
491
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:18,500
But again and only 5%, I can't
imagine it being that big of a
492
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:19,700
deal.
Brad.
493
00:26:19,700 --> 00:26:23,400
I like this a lot but I think if
I'm being honest, I I liked the
494
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,500
non Barrel proof version of
still Austin.
495
00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:27,700
Just a little bit better than
this.
496
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:33,200
Yeah I think I'm with you man
but I think still Austin is
497
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,900
making some crazy good whiskey
here.
498
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:37,500
I did too man they're like oh
they're on a great trajectory
499
00:26:37,500 --> 00:26:39,300
and I think that, you know,
their stuff is not going to be
500
00:26:39,300 --> 00:26:42,900
two years old forever and when
it becomes 4 years old and it
501
00:26:42,900 --> 00:26:46,900
becomes six and eight years old,
it's going to be spectacular
502
00:26:46,900 --> 00:26:48,700
stuff.
Like I cannot wait to see what
503
00:26:48,700 --> 00:26:50,200
keeps coming out of there.
Yeah.
504
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,700
Really some some of the better
better things on the market that
505
00:26:53,700 --> 00:26:56,300
I can imagine.
I really like what still Austin
506
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:58,400
is doing here.
All right man, we have one.
507
00:26:58,500 --> 00:27:01,400
More pick a piece, you're going
first.
508
00:27:01,700 --> 00:27:03,900
And you've got to do a writer
correct.
509
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:08,300
That is correct, Bob, I think to
round it out.
510
00:27:08,300 --> 00:27:13,700
I would like to choose the Coen
Brothers, as my writer nice as
511
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:16,500
it as a team.
The only stipulation.
512
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,800
And, you know, we'd have to
hammer this out in the
513
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,600
contractual.
You know, negotiations.
514
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,600
I would want it because you said
this very early on about the
515
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,400
Coen brothers and I think you're
right.
516
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,200
That it feels like every other
movie, that they make together
517
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:38,100
is either super nihilistic and
has somewhat of a pointless
518
00:27:38,100 --> 00:27:43,900
ending Allah, No Country for Old
Men, and then other ones have to
519
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,000
say it one more time.
No, Country for Old Men, no
520
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,500
country.
Every time you say it, it sounds
521
00:27:50,500 --> 00:27:52,900
like you're referring to the
actor, Gary Oldman.
522
00:27:54,500 --> 00:27:57,300
No country told you don't
separate the two words.
523
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:02,500
Old Mary Gary has no place here,
No Country for Old Men, it out.
524
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:09,000
So I don't want a No Country for
Gary Oldman script, but I do
525
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,000
want a Fargo typescript.
Something that has like a
526
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,300
weirdly uplifting ending.
Something that has a little bit
527
00:28:17,300 --> 00:28:21,100
of purpose to it, and when they
do that, I think they are some
528
00:28:21,100 --> 00:28:24,000
of the best script writers I've
ever ever seen.
529
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:28,600
So I for what I'm shooting for,
in this movie, I want the Coen
530
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:29,500
Brothers.
Mmm.
531
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,800
It sounds like what?
I am setting up for is a movie
532
00:28:33,900 --> 00:28:36,800
about someone dealing with like
some crushing emotional weight.
533
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,900
Because I've gotten Spielberg
and PTA and ratelle and Prieto.
534
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:44,600
And so that's kind of helped me
narrow down my actor list from 5
535
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,100
to 4.
So I'm really really honing in
536
00:28:47,100 --> 00:28:48,600
here.
Brad, you're killing it, man.
537
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,900
The first person I had on my
list was Denzel because he's
538
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:55,200
Denzel and it's hard to choose
against Denzel, but I think I'm
539
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,900
going to and it's because I
think that the Movie that I'm
540
00:28:57,900 --> 00:29:02,600
creating here needs someone who
can walk the streets alone at
541
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,000
night and be sad and and I miss
making day.
542
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,000
Yeah, no no.
But like make you feel the
543
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400
weight and it's not the Denzel
can't do that but it's been a
544
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,300
while since he's done a role
that feels really like interior.
545
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,300
You know what I mean?
Like I don't know if you saw him
546
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,700
in fences which he also directed
a great movie.
547
00:29:21,700 --> 00:29:24,300
So good.
Great movie really showy
548
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:27,400
performance and he just did
Macbeth with Joel Coen.
549
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:30,000
Or was it Ethan Coen?
I can't remember at the moment,
550
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,700
but great, great movie sholay
performance, it's Macbeth.
551
00:29:33,700 --> 00:29:37,500
So, I'm going to take Denzel out
of the running for now and your
552
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:41,200
guy had three, I had two male
actors besides Denzel that I was
553
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,300
thinking of, and one was Jake
Gyllenhaal who I have season
554
00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:47,400
tickets to, like, I will go see
anything.
555
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,700
He's in, he was fantastic in a
movie that I keep talking about.
556
00:29:51,900 --> 00:29:54,800
Michael Bay's, ambulance,
completely unhinged.
557
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,300
Never heard of it.
He was really doing.
558
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,100
Doing like a Nicholas Cage thing
in that movie and I love it.
559
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:03,000
But but but because of that, I'm
taking him out of the running as
560
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000
well.
And that leaves me with two
561
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,700
people, one of whom is Andrew
Garfield.
562
00:30:06,700 --> 00:30:09,300
Who is becoming an actor that I
really, really love.
563
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:12,600
He was in, I think three
different movies last year, very
564
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,400
different performances in all
three but he's really good at
565
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:20,900
that sort of like sensitive.
You know, emotional hurt
566
00:30:20,900 --> 00:30:23,100
performance.
I think he did great here.
567
00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:25,200
The other one is an actress.
Who's really?
568
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,000
Come on strong, the last five or
so years.
569
00:30:27,500 --> 00:30:30,200
Coleman.
Who's nominated are who won?
570
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,000
The Oscar for the favorite?
Who's been nominated in many
571
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,300
movies since then?
Just a year or two ago?
572
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:38,800
She was in the father with
Anthony Hopkins, man.
573
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,300
Great movie.
I can't decide who to pick here,
574
00:30:41,300 --> 00:30:44,100
man.
Coleman Coleman is like you can
575
00:30:44,100 --> 00:30:47,000
do no wrong and I think she's
the obvious choice actually.
576
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:50,300
But it's also like when we put
our lists up on social media and
577
00:30:50,300 --> 00:30:52,200
people see my list, they're
going to be like, who are half
578
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,600
of these people, whereas like
Andrew Garfield People Like Us
579
00:30:55,700 --> 00:30:57,100
Spider-Man.
Like, I know him.
580
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,000
You know so be honest with you
man.
581
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,300
Go ahead.
Just I don't like Andrew
582
00:31:02,300 --> 00:31:04,700
Garfield a ton.
I think really kind of I think
583
00:31:04,700 --> 00:31:06,500
he's kind of whiny.
Hmm.
584
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:09,100
I haven't seen Tick Tick.
Boom.
585
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,300
Yeah you should watch that.
He that was he has completely
586
00:31:12,300 --> 00:31:14,900
changed my opinion of him over
the last two years or so.
587
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,800
Okay, he played Jim Baker in the
eyes of Tammy Faye last year and
588
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,900
he was great in that movie too.
Yeah, I'm just a big fan.
589
00:31:23,300 --> 00:31:26,200
Yeah, no, I'm open to having my
opinion changed.
590
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,300
I just feel like I didn't I
never watched it because I was
591
00:31:30,300 --> 00:31:33,300
like, refusing on principle, but
I just heard bad things about
592
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:37,700
the The Amazing Spider-Man and I
didn't care for him in silence a
593
00:31:37,700 --> 00:31:43,600
ton and I don't know, he just
always strikes me as a as the
594
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:50,200
Exemplar of like the whiny early
twenty year old and that maybe
595
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,900
that's just my that's just my
issues.
596
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,400
It's probably not even his own
well I think because of that,
597
00:31:56,500 --> 00:31:58,700
you've helped sway me.
Towards Olivia Colman.
598
00:31:58,700 --> 00:32:01,300
I'm going to choose her as my
leading actress in this movie.
599
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,900
So here's my rundown, man.
I've got a movie starring
600
00:32:04,900 --> 00:32:07,500
Olivia.
Colman directed by Steven
601
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:10,300
Spielberg with a script from
Paul Thomas Anderson
602
00:32:10,300 --> 00:32:14,300
cinematography, is being done by
Rodrigo Prieto and is being
603
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:18,900
scored by Nicholas brittle and
that movie is called Oscar bait
604
00:32:18,900 --> 00:32:26,300
TM.
Now, what's yours directing my
605
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:31,100
movie is Is David Fincher which
will be written by the Coen
606
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:34,600
Brothers.
Deacons Roger deakins will be
607
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,000
doing the cinematography.
Johan Johansen will be
608
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,800
composing.
The music and Tom Cruise will be
609
00:32:41,900 --> 00:32:43,700
keeping you at the edge of your
seats.
610
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,600
I feel like if you had a real
movie set with Tom Cruise and
611
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,600
David Fincher on it, to people
who are notorious perfectionist
612
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:57,500
so that it would just like the
sheer battle of wills.
613
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:00,400
On that yet.
Would just cause like, an atomic
614
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,100
explosion.
Unless they were together on the
615
00:33:04,108 --> 00:33:07,200
vision.
It if they agreed on the vision,
616
00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:09,300
I think that it could be one of
the most beautiful
617
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:12,800
collaborations in cinematic
history, and you know what, even
618
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,300
if they don't, and it is an
atomic explosion from the dust
619
00:33:16,300 --> 00:33:19,700
of that atomic explosion, you
would get an awesome shot of Tom
620
00:33:19,700 --> 00:33:22,900
Cruise running.
Yes, he would just emerges out
621
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:28,800
if the mushroom cloud in full
Sprint, I mean, if Aaron Sorkin
622
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:33,000
and David Fincher can
collaborate, then I think we
623
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,400
have a chance with taught with
Tom Cruise.
624
00:33:35,500 --> 00:33:37,500
Let's hope so.
Alright, film and whiskey
625
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:38,800
Nation.
We'd love to hear from you.

00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:16,400
time.

Hey everybody.
Welcome into the film and
2
00:00:02,300 --> 00:00:06,100
whiskey podcast.
I'm Bob book, I'm Brad G.
3
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:09,200
And today we're coming at you
with another special bonus.
4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:15,300
Episode bonus episode where
resurrecting a bonus episode
5
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:17,500
format that we have not done in
a while Brad.
6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,600
Yeah, it's our top 5 series but
a little bit different.
7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,700
Take on the top 5 series.
Bob, we're putting a Twist on
8
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:26,500
it.
Yeah, you know, it's the time of
9
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:29,200
year where everyone's getting
into their fantasy football
10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,100
draft.
Pretty soon.
11
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:33,900
It's going to be the filmin.
Whiskey fantasy basketball draft
12
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:35,800
again.
And so, we kind of figured,
13
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,800
let's find a way to work a draft
theme into our top five.
14
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And I really like the the format
that you came up with Brad, why
15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,300
don't you explain it to the
listeners?
16
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:49,300
Yeah, so, I was honestly
thinking about just doing a
17
00:00:49,300 --> 00:00:52,600
bonus episode talking about
like, if we could make a movie,
18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,200
what kind of movie would we
make?
19
00:00:54,700 --> 00:00:58,100
And that time that kind of took
me down the thought train of
20
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:01,300
like, well, I think I'd want to
make like a Arc action thriller
21
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:05,000
type a type of movie and I
started to wonder, like, well,
22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,200
who would I want to make that
movie?
23
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,000
Because, you know, obviously I
would be directing it and I
24
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,600
would have it be my breakout
film and I'd win an oscar.
25
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,400
But if I wasn't able to direct
it, who would I have directed
26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,500
and who would write it?
And who would, you know, work on
27
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:24,100
the cinematography in the music
and who'd be the lead actor and
28
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:27,000
I was like, oh my gosh, we have
a bonus episode.
29
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,900
Well, and the way that it worked
out is Oh, and the way that it
30
00:01:30,908 --> 00:01:34,500
worked out is we're going to
give you a top five as in the
31
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:39,500
top five rolls.
I don't know, I'll try to bring
32
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:40,200
me.
Try to break it down.
33
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,200
Yeah, break it down, for me box.
I'm having a hard time here.
34
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Yeah.
So what we're going to do today
35
00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:49,700
is we're basically going to have
a draft of five categories and
36
00:01:49,700 --> 00:01:53,000
it's essentially like, what
would your top five?
37
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:56,300
I don't know.
Dream Team to work on a movie of
38
00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:58,700
your choosing be.
We're assuming that Brad and I
39
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:01,300
are high-powered.
Word Hollywood producers that we
40
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:04,400
have our pick of the litter, of
the best of the best of
41
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,900
directing, and writing, and
cinematography, and acting, and
42
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:12,200
scoring the movie.
And we can pick one person to
43
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,200
fit each role.
And the other person cannot pick
44
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,600
that person anymore.
And so, it's kind of a draft.
45
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,600
We're going to be allowed to go
in any order so you can take
46
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,900
your director first.
I could take a cinematographer
47
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:26,100
first, you know, we can
strategically try to anticipate
48
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:28,500
where the other person's going
and pick somebody to kind of
49
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:32,000
block them from.
Forming a better movie than my
50
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,900
studio is forming.
Hmm.
51
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:36,700
Whatwhat's, your studio called
Bob, I was trying to think of a
52
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:38,500
clever name over here.
I got nothing man.
53
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:42,200
I think it's kind of along the
lines of like a 24.
54
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:45,900
Uh-huh, I'm going to go for G10.
Oh nice.
55
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:48,900
I'm gonna go with viscosity
pictures, whoo-hoo.
56
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:53,700
Let's go, man.
So you have it, this is what
57
00:02:53,700 --> 00:02:55,600
we're going to do today.
I'm really excited for it.
58
00:02:55,608 --> 00:02:58,700
We've never done anything in a
draft format before.
59
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,500
I'm not Eric Lee known for being
a great Fantasy Football, Draft
60
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:04,100
Ur.
So this might end up going
61
00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:07,700
really badly for me, we will see
you make up for it in fantasy
62
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:09,900
basketball.
That I sure do, man, I
63
00:03:09,900 --> 00:03:11,800
researched the hell out of that
document.
64
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,100
So you do a couple more ground
rules we can only pick people
65
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:18,600
who are alive and currently
working.
66
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:21,100
So, no one in that is announced,
you know, a retirement for
67
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:25,500
making movies and because of
that, it has to be a movie that
68
00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:30,100
could plausibly get made.
So I'm pretty pumped while Doing
69
00:03:30,100 --> 00:03:31,200
it.
We're going to sip on two
70
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,700
Whiskey's, the first of, which
is from Catoctin Creek
71
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:37,700
distillers in Virginia.
It's their Ragnarok Rye, which
72
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,700
it's just one of the coolest
looking bottles.
73
00:03:40,700 --> 00:03:44,000
I think I've ever seen Brad.
Yeah, hands down.
74
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,200
It is just a wildly awesome
bottle.
75
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,400
I, it came in the mail and I
opened it.
76
00:03:51,700 --> 00:03:55,200
And I literally just like
dropped an expletive like, oh my
77
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,900
gosh, like, this is one of the
coolest bottles I've ever seen.
78
00:03:59,300 --> 00:04:02,000
And then the Second one, we're
going to be revisiting still
79
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,800
Austin which is one of our
favorite Brands that's come out
80
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,500
in the last couple years.
Obviously out of Texas.
81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000
The first time we had them was
way back when we first had our
82
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,400
friend Scott sour on the show to
break down.
83
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,600
I think the mint julep that
might have been the episode that
84
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,800
we did this with and it was a,
it was a whiskey that I think
85
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,899
was like, 94.
Ich proof may have been up to
86
00:04:21,899 --> 00:04:24,300
100, but it was still at like,
cocktail proof.
87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,200
And it was one of those where
we're like, hey if you really
88
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,900
want to elevate, whatever
cocktail you're making use, Is
89
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:33,300
whiskey, but also you're not
going to want to use the whiskey
90
00:04:33,300 --> 00:04:35,300
because it drinks.
So beautifully neat.
91
00:04:35,700 --> 00:04:39,400
They've sent us their Cask
strength expression and I am
92
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,500
really excited to try this one.
You're not going to want to keep
93
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:44,900
the whiskey in there, Bob,
because it drinks.
94
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:46,800
Good neat.
Is that what I said?
95
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,500
Yep, I think you want to drop
the mixer.
96
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:54,300
Actually know what I was saying
was we don't want to use it for
97
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:59,000
cocktails because because it
drinks so good on its own like
98
00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,600
why?
Yes.
99
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:00,500
Yes.
You know I'm saying?
100
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:07,000
Yeah I do.
Well Bob do you want to draft
101
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,500
this like like a snake draft
where the first person picks
102
00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:13,800
first and then the next person
gets the next two picks.
103
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:15,500
Do you just want to go back and
forth?
104
00:05:15,500 --> 00:05:19,400
How do you want to roll this?
Let's go back and forth and I'll
105
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,700
let you go first.
That's how much I care about you
106
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,100
and how much confidence I have
in my own abilities.
107
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,500
I was thinking that we could
flip the coin and Destiny but if
108
00:05:28,500 --> 00:05:30,600
you want to let me go first.
It's up to you man.
109
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,500
Oh man it was your idea I am a
man of honor and I respect the
110
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:37,100
fact that you put this whole
thing together so you go first.
111
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,400
Alright so once again our five
categories are director actor or
112
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:47,100
actress cinematographer composer
and writer.
113
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:49,000
So Brad where do you want to
start?
114
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,700
I am going to with the first
pick in the film and whiskey
115
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:58,000
draft of 2022.
I am going to pick Roger deakins
116
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,700
cinematography Bastard.
All right, I knew out of my
117
00:06:04,700 --> 00:06:06,800
whole list.
I was like this is the person
118
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:12,400
that Bob will take first, man.
All right, Deacon's is off the
119
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,200
board that was like, that was
Ace in the Hole man.
120
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,800
He makes everything better.
I was going to say, I think
121
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:24,500
primarily for like sicarios
influence, but also, like, I
122
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:29,600
don't know everything.
He makes 1917 Fargo Skyfall.
123
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,700
Make the dude is just a true
living legend in the world of
124
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,800
cinematography.
Absolutely, I guess I kind of
125
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,300
mentioned it in my mind, I'm
building like a dark action
126
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:43,400
thriller, what kind of movie do
you feel like you're building
127
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,600
for Bob?
I honestly have no idea.
128
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,300
I think that I would, I would
get to crushed when, like, if I
129
00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:52,200
went into it thinking.
Oh, I'm gonna do, you know, like
130
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,300
a, like a family drama, like
marriage storm cam?
131
00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:57,900
Yeah, whatever.
And then, those people started
132
00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:01,000
getting picked off by you.
I would get more pissed off, so
133
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,900
I think I'm just going to go
with God.
134
00:07:03,500 --> 00:07:07,700
I would like, Nora Ephron to
write my dark action thriller.
135
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:11,300
So I think I'm gonna just go
with like best available person
136
00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:13,500
and at the end be like, you know
what, they're all so talented,
137
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:15,600
they can think of something to
make a movie about whom?
138
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:18,900
All right, well, your first pick
is up, Bob where are you going?
139
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:23,100
I'm going to start with the
writer and I'm going to take
140
00:07:23,100 --> 00:07:26,100
someone who was like eighth or
ninth down my list.
141
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,600
But I think again, I'm going to
I'm just going for like most
142
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Talented person.
And I'm taking a writer who's
143
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,600
also a director, but I would
rather have them writing than I
144
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,300
would directing for this
exercise.
145
00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:43,200
And that is Paul Thomas Anderson
who he was on my list, too.
146
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,500
Man, I'm going to take him
because if you look at the
147
00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:48,600
screenplays for his movies, I
mean from Boogie Nights 2, There
148
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,200
Will Be Blood to licorice pizza
last year, he can work in almost
149
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:57,900
any genre and I think he's so
good at finding little moments
150
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:02,300
for each character to Their
inner desires in ways that don't
151
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:05,200
come across as forced that don't
come across as hammy.
152
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,500
I'm really excited to see what
Paul Thomas Anderson's going to
153
00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:10,200
concoct here, but that's my
first pick.
154
00:08:10,900 --> 00:08:13,600
Yeah, I think that's a really
great first pick Bob.
155
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,700
I know that you've been raving
over licorice pizza for a while
156
00:08:17,700 --> 00:08:19,700
now.
So love that movie.
157
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,200
That's a good one man.
With the second pick, I think.
158
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:28,900
Well, my pick for writer is safe
now, so I can I can hold back on
159
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:31,700
that.
I think I'm going to go with
160
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:37,700
director and mmm.
I'm I'm really struggling
161
00:08:37,700 --> 00:08:40,400
between the two.
I think I'm gonna go with David
162
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,200
Fincher.
Mmm, nice.
163
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,700
I just, I still haven't seen the
Zodiac, but from what I know
164
00:08:46,700 --> 00:08:50,800
about it that fits with, what I
think I'm going for the dude who
165
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,100
made Fight Club, and seven, and
The Social Network.
166
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,800
I Just feel like you pair him up
with deacons and they're just
167
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,800
going to make some phenomenal
work.
168
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:03,200
So I yeah.
I think that I think that
169
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:09,700
Fincher's my guy, I really like
the way he draws out you know
170
00:09:09,700 --> 00:09:13,100
really like deep inner
narratives that are going on in
171
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:17,700
his characters lives and yet
still pushes the movie forward
172
00:09:17,700 --> 00:09:20,400
in a very kinetic way.
And I think that that would be a
173
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,000
really really good pairing with
deacons have they worked
174
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
together on a movie Before
deacons and Fincher.
175
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,500
I don't believe they have
deacons his stuck, too.
176
00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:30,600
I mean, he's worked all over the
place with a ton of different
177
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,600
directors, but I don't believe
he's worked with Fincher.
178
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,100
Well.
Now he will, we need to remedy
179
00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:36,800
that.
Yeah.
180
00:09:38,700 --> 00:09:40,600
All right.
Time for our our time for my
181
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,000
second pick, and then we'll go
ahead and break for our first
182
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,500
whiskey.
I'm going to stick with kind of
183
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,100
like the below-the-line people
here.
184
00:09:47,100 --> 00:09:50,400
I'm gonna go with composure and
I'm gonna go with Nicholas
185
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,300
brittle who did the score for.
If Beale Street could talk a
186
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:57,700
score that I've talked about a
lot on this podcast, actually.
187
00:09:57,700 --> 00:10:02,600
Since we watched that movie,
it's been used a lot lately in
188
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,000
like Instagram, reels and
Tick-Tock.
189
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,500
And it's really funny because
when, you know, like what movie
190
00:10:07,500 --> 00:10:09,400
it's from, it's like, wow, that
really doesn't go with your
191
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,000
stupid.
Tick-Tock of you baking, a loaf
192
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:16,300
of bread, but it's such a
beautiful heart wrenching score,
193
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,000
and I just love the way bertel
uses the piano uses the strings.
194
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,900
I really think we could get
something really, really cool
195
00:10:22,900 --> 00:10:26,200
out of the combination of a PTA.
Script and a Nicholas Patel
196
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,300
score.
Yeah, that's awesome.
197
00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:31,300
Dude, I love it, man.
Let's, let's get into this
198
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:34,700
Ragnarok.
I'm really excited for for this
199
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:35,800
whiskey.
Yeah.
200
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,700
So again, this is from Catoctin
Creek.
201
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,800
Now we had one of their rise on
the show, a little over a year
202
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,500
ago now, Brad and we were not
big fans of it.
203
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:48,700
And the reason behind that is
that it has the craft whiskey
204
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:52,500
notes all over it, on the nose.
And I know that, like a lot of
205
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:58,600
people describe the Aft whiskey
Funk as being kind of like a wet
206
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,000
cardboard.
Like, there's just this note
207
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,700
that hangs around in young craft
whiskey and it's hard to explain
208
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:09,900
but it's always on Catoctin
Creek products, and it
209
00:11:09,900 --> 00:11:12,200
specifically, the one we had
last year, we did not really
210
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,300
like it all.
And so, we got this one in the
211
00:11:14,300 --> 00:11:18,800
mail, and it's a collaboration
with the metal band guar and it
212
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:25,200
is covered in, you know, images
of them looking Like what?
213
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,700
I don't know what you call it,
like, the Banshees, yes, Nordic
214
00:11:28,700 --> 00:11:31,100
Nordic demonic forces.
There it is.
215
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:35,700
It has this awesome metallic
stopper on the top of it, you
216
00:11:35,700 --> 00:11:37,700
know, of course, they wrote some
really cool copy.
217
00:11:37,700 --> 00:11:40,400
You can read all about it on
their website for our purposes.
218
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,400
What we want to know is this it
is a 94, proof Rye aged in new
219
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,400
White Oak, and then in Sugar,
Maple and cherry wood.
220
00:11:49,300 --> 00:11:50,800
And is it?
I said, 94 proof.
221
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,400
It's 92.
Proof.
222
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,900
It is not age stated.
So No idea how old it actually
223
00:11:55,900 --> 00:11:58,500
is, but I'm assuming older than
three years old Brad.
224
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,100
Let's give it a nose in a taste.
I know you've tried it already.
225
00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:03,500
I'm actually diving in live on
air.
226
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,100
So why don't you give us your
notes?
227
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,600
Yeah, I think that this one has
that same Funk.
228
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,600
Bob, it's got it.
Like the minute.
229
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,500
I put it up to my nose.
I was like, oh yeah, that's
230
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:18,800
Catoctin Creek.
Yeah it's kind of like a strong.
231
00:12:19,300 --> 00:12:21,800
There's almost a bit of a strong
Cherry.
232
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,000
Dark fruit.
Kind of Nokia on for me.
233
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,500
Yeah.
And a little bit of vanilla
234
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:30,500
underneath.
I don't know, man, that the nose
235
00:12:30,500 --> 00:12:33,200
feels a little bit smoother than
last time, but there's still
236
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,700
some of that same stuff going
on.
237
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,400
Yeah, it's really hard to
describe it, but it smells
238
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,300
familiar and I don't know how to
explain that.
239
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,500
I know that I'm going to be bad
Whiskey's.
240
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:44,200
We've had before, I have talked
about this, this cleaning
241
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,500
product called tarnex, and it
kind of has a little bit of that
242
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:49,100
on it.
It has a little bit of like,
243
00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:51,900
cardboard to it, but then it
also smells a lot, like
244
00:12:51,900 --> 00:12:55,800
butterscotch.
And it's like, You could combine
245
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:59,200
functions like smeared
butterscotch topping on wet
246
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,700
cardboard, and that doesn't
sound appealing and I'm not sure
247
00:13:02,700 --> 00:13:04,900
it is appealing, but it's the
closest I can get to being
248
00:13:04,900 --> 00:13:09,000
accurate here, it does smell
like a freshly cut red.
249
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,000
Apple a little bit to me
underneath all that.
250
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,100
And you're right, there's some
vanilla here as well.
251
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,000
It all mingles together to make
a really unique nose.
252
00:13:17,300 --> 00:13:19,700
I just don't know where this is
going from here.
253
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,400
Yeah, it's a really interesting
knows that's about the best way
254
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:24,400
to put it.
Let's give it a sip though.
255
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:30,600
Bob Mm-hmm.
Oh, that's really nice.
256
00:13:31,700 --> 00:13:33,500
Yeah, it definitely still taste
a little bit young.
257
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,200
It's not a super well-rounded
whiskey.
258
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,600
Like, it's got some pepper to
it.
259
00:13:37,608 --> 00:13:40,400
It's got some heat and, like,
some bite to it, really?
260
00:13:40,700 --> 00:13:42,500
Hmm.
I wouldn't say that it covers
261
00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:46,300
the tongue a lot either, like
it's just 92.
262
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:48,300
Both in.
Yeah, 92 proof is maybe not
263
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:49,800
where this should be.
I think it should be up in like
264
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,900
the 102 104 proof.
However, this is like a
265
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:57,000
significant step up from that
last Catoctin Creek, we had.
266
00:13:57,300 --> 00:14:00,600
Yeah, yeah.
The little bit of a funk comes
267
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:05,300
through, but I don't know how to
describe it other than to say,
268
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:09,900
the original Catoctin creatures.
Had a lot of rough edges that
269
00:14:09,900 --> 00:14:13,000
are not present on this one.
I don't know if they had aged it
270
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,200
a little bit longer, but it
definitely comes across as a
271
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:22,300
more complete experience.
And there's just more flavor
272
00:14:22,300 --> 00:14:26,600
going on and the the funk that
was there before is present, but
273
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,700
not overpowering.
And I actually kind of like it
274
00:14:29,700 --> 00:14:32,100
in this expression of Contacting
Creek.
275
00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:36,000
Yeah, for me I think the Finish
is where this really shines
276
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,000
because you swallow it.
And it's like, okay, that was a
277
00:14:38,008 --> 00:14:42,200
nice young rye and then a layer
kind of came back up on my
278
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,800
palate after I let it sit for a
second and that it tasted like I
279
00:14:45,808 --> 00:14:50,300
had drank an older Rye, like it
had a nice Dusty quality to it.
280
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:52,800
There was some nice fruit notes
that came out on the end.
281
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,500
There is interesting like the
tasting experience was like,
282
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:58,500
okay young Rye probably needs
another two years to be like
283
00:14:58,500 --> 00:15:03,300
superb and then afterwards It
was like, here's what this could
284
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:04,500
be.
I don't know if that makes
285
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:06,600
sense, but it was like, look, it
was like a glimpse into the
286
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,300
future of this Rye, if they kept
it in the barrel for like
287
00:15:09,300 --> 00:15:10,500
another three years.
Maybe.
288
00:15:11,300 --> 00:15:13,800
Yeah.
And I agree with you.
289
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,100
I think you add 10 proof points
to this.
290
00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:19,600
Jump it up just above 100 and
you're looking at a whiskey,
291
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,300
that really has a lot of legs to
it that.
292
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,200
Yeah, but overall, man, this is
a really, really pleasant
293
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,100
experience.
I like it a lot.
294
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,900
Yeah, I think if we were scoring
this out of 50 again, not really
295
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:32,200
Factory.
In the price right now.
296
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,300
But just for the sake of
argument, I'd probably put this
297
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:38,900
Somewhere In Like A don't know,
32 to 35 range but you're right
298
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:44,400
if it was a little bit heavier
on the alcohol content and just
299
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,400
a little bit longer age, I think
this could be like a 40 or
300
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,200
above.
It's really on the right track.
301
00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:52,700
Yeah, 100%.
I think I'd be a little above
302
00:15:52,700 --> 00:15:58,800
you, 34 to 37 area but yeah,
this is a improvement over the
303
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,400
first offering and Again, we've
talked a lot of times about cool
304
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,300
packaging with subpar interior
contents.
305
00:16:07,700 --> 00:16:11,200
This is not that this is one of
the coolest bottles I have ever
306
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,000
seen in my life, paired with a
really solid whiskey inside.
307
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,400
So, if you're able to get your
hands on some Ragnarok, I think
308
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,400
I'd suggested Bob.
Yeah, me too man.
309
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:24,200
And I would also suggest diving
back into this draft because
310
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,500
it's your turn to pick your
third member of your dream team.
311
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,200
Yeah.
So I've got myself a director.
312
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:38,100
And a cinematographer, I think.
Well, I'll just go into the, I'm
313
00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:40,200
just going to keep this is draft
strategy.
314
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,500
Bob, I'm going to keep going
into places.
315
00:16:42,500 --> 00:16:46,300
You haven't been and there's
only one actor that I can
316
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,900
choose.
I think you might be able to
317
00:16:48,900 --> 00:16:52,900
pick him for me, Bob, but we're
talking Tom Cruise, baby.
318
00:16:54,300 --> 00:16:59,700
I think just I am just utterly
convinced that Tom Cruise is one
319
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:04,599
of our greatest living Get
Treasures of an actor and he
320
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:08,700
deserves an Oscar and I want him
to get it in this movie because
321
00:17:08,700 --> 00:17:11,900
I think he is has so much more
depth to his acting.
322
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:15,700
The people give them credit for.
And this is it, man, this is
323
00:17:15,700 --> 00:17:20,599
this is the time, maybe it's
maybe it's a dark Thriller that
324
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:25,400
is about him as an aging, you
know, policeman or a detective
325
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:26,900
or something.
I don't know.
326
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:30,000
I'm just I'm here for it.
And I think that Tom Cruise
327
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,800
deserves a really Ali serious
role for him to win an Oscar.
328
00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:37,500
I love it, man.
All right, I think it's time for
329
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:42,800
me to choose a director and I'm
down to three people on my list
330
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,000
because I keep thinking of this
Nicholas brutal score and the
331
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,500
sort of aching you know if Beale
Street could talk themes here,
332
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,100
Barry Jenkins is still on my
list.
333
00:17:52,100 --> 00:17:53,900
I could snatch him up right now.
I think he would make a
334
00:17:53,908 --> 00:17:56,900
beautiful movie with Paul,
Thomas Anderson writing.
335
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,100
I've got Spielberg on here
because he Spielberg and he's
336
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:02,800
also no.
Lutely capable of this kind of
337
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,700
movie.
I mean, he has a film coming out
338
00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:07,600
this fall called The fabled
Men's, which is basically an
339
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,500
autobiography of his own life.
He's done this kind of stuff
340
00:18:10,500 --> 00:18:16,100
before, he knows how to do the
traumatized kid or shattered
341
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:17,700
relationship.
Very, very well.
342
00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:21,700
Now, not-not-not Spielberg, the
other person that I'm going back
343
00:18:21,700 --> 00:18:23,700
and forth with is Alfonso
cuaron.
344
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,200
I think that he's super
ambitious, but he also really
345
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,100
understands Children of Men is
such a beautiful movie.
346
00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:35,600
But could I see cuarón directing
a PTA script?
347
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,500
I think is the thing that's like
throwing me off here.
348
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:45,800
I think I'm gonna go Spielberg,
although I want to go Jenkins,
349
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,200
but I'm gonna go Spielberg as my
director because you just, you
350
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,800
can't go wrong man.
Dude, Paul Thomas Anderson, and
351
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:58,700
Spielberg working together on a
movie would just be absolutely
352
00:18:58,700 --> 00:19:00,300
epic.
All right, man.
353
00:19:00,700 --> 00:19:02,200
Number four, You what are you
gonna do?
354
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:07,200
Number four for me, I think I'm
going to go into the composer
355
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:14,400
realm and I'm going to pick
Johan Johansen of arrival, Fame,
356
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:20,600
arrival sicario.
I think that he just has a real
357
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,800
talent for honestly.
It's what you were saying about.
358
00:19:25,300 --> 00:19:28,400
Nicholas Patel was got me in
this direction was.
359
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:35,100
Yeah, there's something about a
mournful full backdrop for a for
360
00:19:35,100 --> 00:19:39,300
any movie, you know, drama that
you you film, that just sets the
361
00:19:39,300 --> 00:19:41,800
stage for where you want to go
emotionally.
362
00:19:42,100 --> 00:19:44,900
And I think that you'll Hanson
would do a really beautiful job
363
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:47,000
at that, for the movie.
I'm envisioning.
364
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:51,800
I'm going to hold off on my
actor, because I have a list of
365
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,400
five people right now, and I'm
like, this is too many people
366
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,400
can't claim them all.
So, I'm gonna go cinematographer
367
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,900
and I'm realizing as I go
through these lists, that what
368
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:04,600
I'm doing is I'm basically
Picking directors through their
369
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,000
collaborators.
So like I picked brutal because
370
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,500
he works with Jenkins.
And I picked PTA because he
371
00:20:09,508 --> 00:20:14,500
works with PTA and I'm gonna
pick Rodrigo Prieto as my
372
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:16,400
cinematographer.
We've talked about him a couple
373
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,600
times on this show.
He did the cinematography for
374
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,900
silence, which we just did a few
weeks ago, he's been working
375
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:25,100
more and more with Scorsese and
just doing these beautiful
376
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:27,800
movies.
He can also go really Hollywood
377
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,100
with his, with his compositions,
like he did the movie Argo.
378
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:34,400
Go, which looked really great.
But it was like your standard,
379
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:35,800
you know, kind of political
thriller.
380
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,000
He also did the cinematography
for Brokeback Mountain, which is
381
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,700
one of the most, beautiful
looking movies.
382
00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:42,100
I think we've ever done on this
show.
383
00:20:42,100 --> 00:20:45,700
So yeah, I'm gonna go create so
he's like, he kind of flies
384
00:20:45,700 --> 00:20:46,900
under the radar.
A little bit.
385
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000
I was thinking about, you know,
like a loop pesky who did
386
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,500
Birdman and the Revenant, but I
don't know that I want a camera
387
00:20:53,500 --> 00:20:57,400
3 inches from my actors faces
throughout the whole movie, so
388
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,800
I'm gonna which actor.
Yeah exactly.
389
00:20:59,900 --> 00:21:02,600
So I'm going to take Prieto.
Get ya, dude.
390
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,300
What do you want to jump into
this still Austin or do you want
391
00:21:05,300 --> 00:21:08,000
to make our final picks?
Let's let's play out the
392
00:21:08,008 --> 00:21:11,200
suspense because I think we both
still have to pick our acting
393
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,800
performances, right?
No, I chose Tom Cruise.
394
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,500
Oh, that's right.
You did choose Tommy C.
395
00:21:15,500 --> 00:21:18,300
So who's left for you?
What's your my writer?
396
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,600
Your writer and I have an actor.
Yeah, let's break and let's try
397
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,000
this still Austin.
What do you say?
398
00:21:23,300 --> 00:21:24,700
All right yeah, let's get to it
man.
399
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,700
Alright so we are trying still
Austin, Cask strength bourbon
400
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:31,600
whiskey this clocks in at 118.
Proof.
401
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,800
It is aged for at least two
years.
402
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,600
This was something we noticed
with the original still Austin
403
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,800
as well.
I think that one was called the
404
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,200
musician.
It says two years right on the
405
00:21:40,208 --> 00:21:43,400
bottle and we kept looking at
the bottle going like, how is
406
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,700
this?
Only two years old?
407
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,900
Mmm, as we saw two years and we
were like gosh are we gonna have
408
00:21:47,900 --> 00:21:51,300
to like find nice things to say
about the two year old whisky?
409
00:21:51,300 --> 00:21:54,200
And it did not drink like a two
year old whisky at all.
410
00:21:54,900 --> 00:22:01,100
This is a 70% non-GMO, corn, 25%
rye and 5% malted barley.
411
00:22:01,300 --> 00:22:06,400
Ash Bill, where you had they
specified non-GMO, man, they
412
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,400
specified everything 25% elbon
Rye.
413
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,200
I don't even know what that
means. 5% Wildfire malted
414
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,700
barley.
So why didn't you say so before?
415
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,000
Well, that's probably why the
MSRP on this is sixty five
416
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,400
dollars for a bottle.
So I think I will factor that in
417
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,800
a little bit as we get into our
tasting and scoring here.
418
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,500
Brad, I'm pouring it out right
now.
419
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:28,900
Why don't you tell me what you
think of it?
420
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:35,500
Yeah, I honestly The nose is a
little bit lacking, like there's
421
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:38,600
some nice stuff going on, but
I'm not getting enough.
422
00:22:38,900 --> 00:22:41,600
Nice stuff.
There's a little bit of orange
423
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,200
there, some caramel and vanilla
come across.
424
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,100
It's got your classic bourbon
notes, but I'm not getting a lot
425
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:50,900
of complexity.
I think that's the issue I'm
426
00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:52,200
having right now.
I don't know.
427
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,500
Bob, where are you at with the,
with the nose so far?
428
00:22:55,500 --> 00:22:57,300
I'm in a really different spot
than you Brad.
429
00:22:57,300 --> 00:22:59,700
And I think it's, because if
there's a word I could use to
430
00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:04,200
describe this, it's just dark.
Like, it smells like you
431
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,200
squirted, like, pancake syrup
into a glass.
432
00:23:08,300 --> 00:23:12,000
It's really, really dark.
It's really decadent lots of
433
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000
maple.
Lots of brown sugar, almost
434
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,500
molasses like, just straight
molasses on this.
435
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:19,400
I was going to say, molasses is
the right word.
436
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,400
It doesn't quite have the for
me.
437
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,700
It doesn't quite have.
The decadence of like, a sweet
438
00:23:24,700 --> 00:23:29,000
maple syrup, but yeah, molasses
really yeah, that's it.
439
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,000
Ma'am.
I think as it kind of airs out
440
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,300
Little bit in my glass here.
It's starting to open up a
441
00:23:33,308 --> 00:23:35,100
little bit.
Those dark dark notes are
442
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:37,100
dissipating, and it becomes a
lot more Okie.
443
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:39,700
A little bit more Dusty as well,
which is not something.
444
00:23:39,700 --> 00:23:42,700
I was expecting on a two year
old whisky again, like it.
445
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:45,100
When you factor in the, this is
only two years old.
446
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,000
There's quite a bit of
complexity.
447
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,900
I think Brad because it doesn't
smell like a young whiskey.
448
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:53,900
No, it really doesn't that there
are some really nice things
449
00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:56,800
going on here.
I think if I'm being honest Bob,
450
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,300
I might have just filled my
glass a little too full.
451
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,200
I'm used to having These tiny
little samples to pour out of in
452
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,700
this time I have a whole 750 ml
so might not have been enough
453
00:24:07,700 --> 00:24:11,200
room when I get into the taste
here.
454
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,900
I think the thing that stands
out to me is like right on the
455
00:24:13,900 --> 00:24:16,900
back end of the palate.
It gets kind of like herbal and
456
00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:20,400
vegetable which I wasn't
expecting it has that sort of
457
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,100
like craft Rye thing we get
sometimes like on the bell for
458
00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:26,500
Rye.
I keep making this this
459
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:29,500
comparison to like me pulling
weeds out in the yard and like
460
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,300
that weird chlorophyll.
Smell you get from pulling
461
00:24:32,300 --> 00:24:35,700
certain weeds.
It's like it's like that on my
462
00:24:35,700 --> 00:24:39,000
palette and that wasn't present
at all on the nose.
463
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,200
So I'm a little bit surprised at
the fact that this doesn't have
464
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,100
the really like brown sugar
maple heavy taste, that the
465
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:51,000
smell would have suggested.
Yeah, it has a little bit of
466
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,700
molasses Upfront for me, but I
would agree it almost turns into
467
00:24:55,700 --> 00:25:03,200
a baking spice vegetal Just
really fascinating mixture of of
468
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:07,200
experiences.
Like this isn't a very typical
469
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,700
bourbon there, there's a little
bit of vanilla there for me, but
470
00:25:10,700 --> 00:25:14,800
it's not overpowering.
When I get in the finish, it
471
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,100
turns a little okey on me, but
not bitter.
472
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:22,000
Some continuing orange notes
that I got from the, from the
473
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,200
start, this is a really
interesting whiskey Bob.
474
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,800
Now again, it's 118 proof.
I don't think that it Really
475
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,400
suggest that on the palate.
Like it's definitely a higher
476
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,000
proof whiskey but it doesn't hit
you the way you would expect 118
477
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,400
to hit you and I'll give it that
much as for that note that I
478
00:25:38,408 --> 00:25:42,200
don't particularly like that
sort of like earthy we d-type
479
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,800
note, I don't know if aging this
longer would kind of mellow that
480
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,100
out a little bit, but I will say
that at 2 years old.
481
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,100
I think the most apparent thing
about it is like the nose is
482
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:54,800
there.
The Taste is not quite there
483
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,900
yet.
If this was four years old, I
484
00:25:56,908 --> 00:25:58,400
think it'd be a lot more
well-rounded.
485
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:01,000
It.
Yeah, I think that a little bit
486
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,300
more age here.
Would definitely make it worth
487
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:07,200
the ticket price, man.
I tried this a few week or so
488
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,200
ago and I really enjoyed it but
this time through there's
489
00:26:10,300 --> 00:26:13,000
there's a few more gaps in it
than I thought there would be
490
00:26:13,500 --> 00:26:15,500
and it might be the barley
that's in here as well.
491
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:18,500
But again and only 5%, I can't
imagine it being that big of a
492
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:19,700
deal.
Brad.
493
00:26:19,700 --> 00:26:23,400
I like this a lot but I think if
I'm being honest, I I liked the
494
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,500
non Barrel proof version of
still Austin.
495
00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:27,700
Just a little bit better than
this.
496
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:33,200
Yeah I think I'm with you man
but I think still Austin is
497
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,900
making some crazy good whiskey
here.
498
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:37,500
I did too man they're like oh
they're on a great trajectory
499
00:26:37,500 --> 00:26:39,300
and I think that, you know,
their stuff is not going to be
500
00:26:39,300 --> 00:26:42,900
two years old forever and when
it becomes 4 years old and it
501
00:26:42,900 --> 00:26:46,900
becomes six and eight years old,
it's going to be spectacular
502
00:26:46,900 --> 00:26:48,700
stuff.
Like I cannot wait to see what
503
00:26:48,700 --> 00:26:50,200
keeps coming out of there.
Yeah.
504
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,700
Really some some of the better
better things on the market that
505
00:26:53,700 --> 00:26:56,300
I can imagine.
I really like what still Austin
506
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:58,400
is doing here.
All right man, we have one.
507
00:26:58,500 --> 00:27:01,400
More pick a piece, you're going
first.
508
00:27:01,700 --> 00:27:03,900
And you've got to do a writer
correct.
509
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:08,300
That is correct, Bob, I think to
round it out.
510
00:27:08,300 --> 00:27:13,700
I would like to choose the Coen
Brothers, as my writer nice as
511
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:16,500
it as a team.
The only stipulation.
512
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,800
And, you know, we'd have to
hammer this out in the
513
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,600
contractual.
You know, negotiations.
514
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,600
I would want it because you said
this very early on about the
515
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,400
Coen brothers and I think you're
right.
516
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,200
That it feels like every other
movie, that they make together
517
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:38,100
is either super nihilistic and
has somewhat of a pointless
518
00:27:38,100 --> 00:27:43,900
ending Allah, No Country for Old
Men, and then other ones have to
519
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,000
say it one more time.
No, Country for Old Men, no
520
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,500
country.
Every time you say it, it sounds
521
00:27:50,500 --> 00:27:52,900
like you're referring to the
actor, Gary Oldman.
522
00:27:54,500 --> 00:27:57,300
No country told you don't
separate the two words.
523
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:02,500
Old Mary Gary has no place here,
No Country for Old Men, it out.
524
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:09,000
So I don't want a No Country for
Gary Oldman script, but I do
525
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,000
want a Fargo typescript.
Something that has like a
526
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,300
weirdly uplifting ending.
Something that has a little bit
527
00:28:17,300 --> 00:28:21,100
of purpose to it, and when they
do that, I think they are some
528
00:28:21,100 --> 00:28:24,000
of the best script writers I've
ever ever seen.
529
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:28,600
So I for what I'm shooting for,
in this movie, I want the Coen
530
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:29,500
Brothers.
Mmm.
531
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,800
It sounds like what?
I am setting up for is a movie
532
00:28:33,900 --> 00:28:36,800
about someone dealing with like
some crushing emotional weight.
533
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,900
Because I've gotten Spielberg
and PTA and ratelle and Prieto.
534
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:44,600
And so that's kind of helped me
narrow down my actor list from 5
535
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,100
to 4.
So I'm really really honing in
536
00:28:47,100 --> 00:28:48,600
here.
Brad, you're killing it, man.
537
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,900
The first person I had on my
list was Denzel because he's
538
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:55,200
Denzel and it's hard to choose
against Denzel, but I think I'm
539
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,900
going to and it's because I
think that the Movie that I'm
540
00:28:57,900 --> 00:29:02,600
creating here needs someone who
can walk the streets alone at
541
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,000
night and be sad and and I miss
making day.
542
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,000
Yeah, no no.
But like make you feel the
543
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400
weight and it's not the Denzel
can't do that but it's been a
544
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,300
while since he's done a role
that feels really like interior.
545
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,300
You know what I mean?
Like I don't know if you saw him
546
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,700
in fences which he also directed
a great movie.
547
00:29:21,700 --> 00:29:24,300
So good.
Great movie really showy
548
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:27,400
performance and he just did
Macbeth with Joel Coen.
549
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:30,000
Or was it Ethan Coen?
I can't remember at the moment,
550
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,700
but great, great movie sholay
performance, it's Macbeth.
551
00:29:33,700 --> 00:29:37,500
So, I'm going to take Denzel out
of the running for now and your
552
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:41,200
guy had three, I had two male
actors besides Denzel that I was
553
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,300
thinking of, and one was Jake
Gyllenhaal who I have season
554
00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:47,400
tickets to, like, I will go see
anything.
555
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,700
He's in, he was fantastic in a
movie that I keep talking about.
556
00:29:51,900 --> 00:29:54,800
Michael Bay's, ambulance,
completely unhinged.
557
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,300
Never heard of it.
He was really doing.
558
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,100
Doing like a Nicholas Cage thing
in that movie and I love it.
559
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:03,000
But but but because of that, I'm
taking him out of the running as
560
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000
well.
And that leaves me with two
561
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,700
people, one of whom is Andrew
Garfield.
562
00:30:06,700 --> 00:30:09,300
Who is becoming an actor that I
really, really love.
563
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:12,600
He was in, I think three
different movies last year, very
564
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,400
different performances in all
three but he's really good at
565
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:20,900
that sort of like sensitive.
You know, emotional hurt
566
00:30:20,900 --> 00:30:23,100
performance.
I think he did great here.
567
00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:25,200
The other one is an actress.
Who's really?
568
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,000
Come on strong, the last five or
so years.
569
00:30:27,500 --> 00:30:30,200
Coleman.
Who's nominated are who won?
570
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,000
The Oscar for the favorite?
Who's been nominated in many
571
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,300
movies since then?
Just a year or two ago?
572
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:38,800
She was in the father with
Anthony Hopkins, man.
573
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,300
Great movie.
I can't decide who to pick here,
574
00:30:41,300 --> 00:30:44,100
man.
Coleman Coleman is like you can
575
00:30:44,100 --> 00:30:47,000
do no wrong and I think she's
the obvious choice actually.
576
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:50,300
But it's also like when we put
our lists up on social media and
577
00:30:50,300 --> 00:30:52,200
people see my list, they're
going to be like, who are half
578
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,600
of these people, whereas like
Andrew Garfield People Like Us
579
00:30:55,700 --> 00:30:57,100
Spider-Man.
Like, I know him.
580
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,000
You know so be honest with you
man.
581
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,300
Go ahead.
Just I don't like Andrew
582
00:31:02,300 --> 00:31:04,700
Garfield a ton.
I think really kind of I think
583
00:31:04,700 --> 00:31:06,500
he's kind of whiny.
Hmm.
584
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:09,100
I haven't seen Tick Tick.
Boom.
585
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,300
Yeah you should watch that.
He that was he has completely
586
00:31:12,300 --> 00:31:14,900
changed my opinion of him over
the last two years or so.
587
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,800
Okay, he played Jim Baker in the
eyes of Tammy Faye last year and
588
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,900
he was great in that movie too.
Yeah, I'm just a big fan.
589
00:31:23,300 --> 00:31:26,200
Yeah, no, I'm open to having my
opinion changed.
590
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,300
I just feel like I didn't I
never watched it because I was
591
00:31:30,300 --> 00:31:33,300
like, refusing on principle, but
I just heard bad things about
592
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:37,700
the The Amazing Spider-Man and I
didn't care for him in silence a
593
00:31:37,700 --> 00:31:43,600
ton and I don't know, he just
always strikes me as a as the
594
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:50,200
Exemplar of like the whiny early
twenty year old and that maybe
595
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,900
that's just my that's just my
issues.
596
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,400
It's probably not even his own
well I think because of that,
597
00:31:56,500 --> 00:31:58,700
you've helped sway me.
Towards Olivia Colman.
598
00:31:58,700 --> 00:32:01,300
I'm going to choose her as my
leading actress in this movie.
599
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,900
So here's my rundown, man.
I've got a movie starring
600
00:32:04,900 --> 00:32:07,500
Olivia.
Colman directed by Steven
601
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:10,300
Spielberg with a script from
Paul Thomas Anderson
602
00:32:10,300 --> 00:32:14,300
cinematography, is being done by
Rodrigo Prieto and is being
603
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:18,900
scored by Nicholas brittle and
that movie is called Oscar bait
604
00:32:18,900 --> 00:32:26,300
TM.
Now, what's yours directing my
605
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:31,100
movie is Is David Fincher which
will be written by the Coen
606
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:34,600
Brothers.
Deacons Roger deakins will be
607
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,000
doing the cinematography.
Johan Johansen will be
608
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,800
composing.
The music and Tom Cruise will be
609
00:32:41,900 --> 00:32:43,700
keeping you at the edge of your
seats.
610
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,600
I feel like if you had a real
movie set with Tom Cruise and
611
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,600
David Fincher on it, to people
who are notorious perfectionist
612
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:57,500
so that it would just like the
sheer battle of wills.
613
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:00,400
On that yet.
Would just cause like, an atomic
614
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,100
explosion.
Unless they were together on the
615
00:33:04,108 --> 00:33:07,200
vision.
It if they agreed on the vision,
616
00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:09,300
I think that it could be one of
the most beautiful
617
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:12,800
collaborations in cinematic
history, and you know what, even
618
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,300
if they don't, and it is an
atomic explosion from the dust
619
00:33:16,300 --> 00:33:19,700
of that atomic explosion, you
would get an awesome shot of Tom
620
00:33:19,700 --> 00:33:22,900
Cruise running.
Yes, he would just emerges out
621
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:28,800
if the mushroom cloud in full
Sprint, I mean, if Aaron Sorkin
622
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:33,000
and David Fincher can
collaborate, then I think we
623
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,400
have a chance with taught with
Tom Cruise.
624
00:33:35,500 --> 00:33:37,500
Let's hope so.
Alright, film and whiskey
625
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:38,800
Nation.
We'd love to hear from you.
626
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,600
Who had the better draft, who
