This week on the pod we are joined by Chris Blatner. Chris is the Executive Director of Bourbon Charity, a dad to one, a lover of whiskey poured neat, and the host of the Urban Bourbon Hour on his instagram @urbanbourbonist.

Chris and I had a great time chatting about bourbon, its history & heritage and how that relates to life and family, how challenging events in life shape us, non profits, how he defines success and much more. 

Thank you all for being a part of the Wake. Dad. Drink. Repeat. Community! Happy New Year!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
