[there are some curse words in this episode]
Keith and Melik are still formulating the names of the show as we explore the world of gin. They realize that gin is a polarizing spirit but they encourage you to take a listen to this episode. You'll educate yourself on the spirit and may find a way to enjoy it. Keith talks about his bicycle riding journey that will lead up to him participating in the 2019 DALMAC. The Dick Allen Lansing to MACkinaw Bicycle Tour is Michigan’s annual epic end-of-summer bicycle camping tour which is a summer bicycle camping tour from Lansing to Mackinaw City.
What makes gin 'gin', it is juniper. Juniper (Juniperus communis ) is an evergreen shrub found on mountains and heaths throughout Europe, Southwest Asia, and North America.
Keith talks about what goes into a "gin basket".

Melik explains why he doesn't like to play a certain game.

The British were instrumental in introduce the world to gin.

William III of England, aka William of Orange, was sovereign Prince of Orange from birth, Stadtholder of Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Guelders and Overijssel in the Dutch Republic from the 1670s and King of England, Ireland and Scotland from 1689 until his death.

There's a story sharing exchange one about suffering through biking, another of how myth is made.

Keith talks about how a gin & tonic is a perfect drink. A tall glass is suggested, fresh ingredients, and try Indian Tonic Water with natural quinine. Or you might want to try a gimlet.

Keith tells a "neat" story.

Melik speaks about his recipe "Magdalene" that uses Magellan Gin.
