A Whiskey Passion Project & A Story for the Ages

There's something about whisky that brings out the passion in
many people. For David Jennings, his passion for Wild Turkey led
him to start a blog and then write what may well be the
definitive story of Wild Turkey. His book "American Spirit: Wild
Turkey Bourbon From Ripy to Russell" was published this summer
and demand from other Wild Turkey lovers has forced his publisher
to start working on a second print run. He'll join us to talk
about what fueled that passion on WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the
news, there's a unified front against the import tariffs on
whiskies in the U.S. and Europe. Unfortunately, it's the whisky
makers on both sides of the Atlantic that are unified, while the
politicians who will decide on whether those tariffs stay in
place remain very much divided. We'll also update the disputes
between politicians trying to get the Covid-19 pandemic under
control and bar owners who face threats to their business from
mandated closings. We'll also have a red tape story out of
Ireland that may have you shaking your head, along with a Behind
the Label that's just a bit corny (pun intended).
